Before he could figure out the signaler, he received another call.
Zeng Sanshui felt like there were cats causing a ruckus in his heart.
He locked his gaze on the workers and saw them rush into the station office.
They were probably going to get some call.
Hearing the call, Lu Ye looked excited and followed them into the office.
Zeng Sanshui stood at the door and saw them surrounding a strange thing.
They reached out theirs finger and poked the thing with a book. After a while, the thing actually rang.
Zeng Sanshui was so frightened that he thought that they were doing some kind of witchcraft. He grabbed Qu Yuanxian’s arm and said, “That thing can make sounds!”
Qu Yuanxian gestured for him to calm down, but his gaze did not leave the phone for a moment.
After a while, the call went through.
The installer picked up the phone and asked on the other end, “Hey, hey, hey, can you hear me?”
They turned on the loudspeaker and a man’s clear voice immediately came from the phone. “This is Baye No. 1 station. Can you hear us clearly? We can.” The installer immediately said excitedly, “We’re from Xuya No. 3 Station. We can hear you clearly!” Then he asked, “Is the line stable? Is there any noise?” “No!”
The installer was overjoyed. After hanging up, he called the signal station and reported to the director, “Reporting to the director, the communication on the Xuya No. 3 relay station line is complete!”
The man’s deep voice sounded. “Very good! Congratulations. I look forward to your next stop, hope your work goes on smoothly!”
“Yes, I’ll definitely do my best to complete the task!”
After both parties hung up, Qu Yuanxian and Zeng Sanshui were still in shock.
However, they heard Lu Ye say happily, “Can 1 talk to the Great Empress now?” The installer nodded. “I’ve dialed. Someone will answer. That should do it.” Lu Ye became excited. “Then teach me how to dial. 1 don’t know how to use it yet.” He took out the communication number of the Great Empress’s study room.
The installer taught him to dial. When he turned around and saw so many people blocking the door, he reminded, “There’s people behind us.” What if they heard something confidential?
Lu Ye hurriedly waved his hand and asked Lan Jingbai to bring them out of the station office.
Unable to hear Lu Ye talk to the Great Empress, Zeng Sanshui kept asking Lan
Jingbai, “What is that? Why is there human voice coming from there? Do you people from Carefree Kingdom know witchcraft?”
That was why they could make plastic out of black gold water and have such powerful firearms. They could also make the lightning of the G.o.ds work for them and move the stars into the house.
Lan Jingbai said expressionlessly, “That’s a phone call, not witchcraft.”
He cherished his words like gold, making Zeng Sanshui about to die of anxiety. “Then how can we talk?”
Lan Jingbai’s explanation was almost useless. “Because there’s a signal being transmitted.”
At this point, Zeng Sanshui could no longer pry open his mouth.
As for Zeng Sanshui, he felt his scalp tingle. If the Carefree Kingdom could send a voice transmission from afar, wouldn’t Bai Wutong be able to learn of their movements immediately and command them all in the future?
This was really too terrifying.
He even had the thought that he had to quickly fly back and report the situation in the southern frontier to Emperor Ling Hui.
They could reach Baye at the border in half a month if they rode fast.
Qu Yuanxian and the others had brought a lot of things. Coupled with the delay on the road, it would be at least a week before they reached Baye.
After Lu Ye informed Bai Wutong about the progress and came out of the office, he was caught by Zeng Sanshui and Qu Yuanxian.. “Can we buy one of that thing so that we can call whoever we want?”
