Chapter 15 People Can't Live Without Mobile Phones

It might be normal that Lingxiao Sect is so large, and it’s not entirely a modeling issue.

As the first sect in the world and the place where all the heavens and myriad ways were born, Lingxiao Sect’s territory was always considered too small in the past.

However, Lin Luo was not sure whether every sect would claim to be the first sect in the world, so he kept silent and did not explain.

It’s actually a good thing that the sect is very big. Jiaoxi sighed for a moment and then passed by.

Lingxiao Sect now seems to be a legitimate sect.

There is a patriarch, Jiaoxi has just ascended the throne.

Since there are elders, Lin Luo and Xie Ding will just take on the role.

There are three disciples who do their daily tasks every day and are quite dedicated.

The Lingxiao Sect has everything that the orthodox sects have.

What they do every day are what people from a serious sect would do.

As a serious swordsman in an orthodox sect, Lin Luo practices sword skills well every day.

One day, while practicing sword, he suddenly had an idea and came up with a good idea to develop the sect.

Of course, the sect's development had to be discussed with the sect leader. Lin Luo found Jiaoxi without hesitation and said to her, "I think Lingxiao Sect should be open to external exchanges. We should build a few roads leading to other sects."

"Open to the outside world?"

Wouldn't that attract a lot of people?

Jiao Xi immediately refused: "There will be no good outcome if you do this."

"Our Lingxiao Sect is too rich. If people outside see us, they will definitely attract many people to attack us."

Lin Luo thought it made a lot of sense.

The wealth of Lingxiao Sect cannot be hidden, and they are leading people directly to the mountain. This idea is really stupid.

He went back and practiced sword for a few days. One day, he suddenly had an idea and a good idea popped into his mind.

In fact, external communication does not necessarily have to be face-to-face.

External communication does not necessarily have to be person-to-person.

When he was in modern times, the person he communicated with the most was his master, but in addition to his master, he also had someone he talked to every day.

This object is not a human, not a cat, not a dog, and certainly not a hamster.

It is the smart speaker - Xiao Jin!

Before going out, he would often ask Xiao Jin what clothes would be suitable for the weather. He would also ask Xiao Jin many health questions, such as whether sweet potatoes and milk could be cooked together. Sometimes, when he couldn't decide what to eat for lunch, he would ask Xiao Jin.

Xiao Jin, a good helper to mankind, actually has no IQ.

Lin Luo had used this type of so-called intelligent AI when it first entered the market. At that time, it was only capable of text conversations. In fact, it was just grabbing keywords and giving replies. The principle was very simple. Users could edit what replies to give when they sent out certain keywords. On the surface, it looked like AI was communicating with people, but in fact, it was the replies edited by many people communicating with the people using AI.

As for the speaker, it only has an additional function of converting voice to text.

Some time ago, Jiaoxi created a magic tool for searching books in the library to make it easier for children to read. Jiaoxi was able to respond based on keywords, and in terms of data exchange, Xie Ding's communication symbols were also very useful. Lin Luo felt that the cultivation world should be able to create a smart speaker. This most primitive AI, which does not seem to be able to be called AI, should be achievable.

Once it is made, it can serve as the image ambassador of Lingxiao Sect and communicate with the world.

He quickly found Jiaoxi again to offer advice and suggestions.

Jiaoxi thought the idea was interesting, but still rejected his proposal.

"The relationship between us and other sects is primarily competitive, and even hostile. As the saying goes, knowing yourself and your enemy ensures victory in a hundred battles. It's not a good thing for them to understand us clearly. It's best if the enemy knows us clearly and we know them in secret."

After hearing this, Lin Luo felt that it made a lot of sense.

He decided to go back and practice sword skills properly and not think about it anymore.

He practiced sword for another month and found that his sword practice seemed to have reached a bottleneck and it was very difficult to move forward.

This situation made him very anxious.

Lin Luo began to miss the Pomodoro timer.

The Pomodoro app, which allows him to take a 5-minute break every 25 minutes of work and record his daily work hours so that his efforts towards his goals are clearly visible, could greatly alleviate his anxiety, but he doesn't have it now.

Lin Luo thought of Jiao Xi and Xie Ding's abilities again, and felt that it was technically feasible.

But this time it was just for himself, not for the sect, so Lin Luo felt embarrassed to talk to them about it.

He continued to practice sword for a month.

A month later, Lin Luo felt that he couldn't go on like this.

His progress in swordsmanship was alarmingly slow.

Now he not only misses the Pomodoro timer, he also misses his schedule, his sleeping forest, his dog village, his cat check-in, and his hamster focus - he misses his phone.

He hasn't touched a cell phone in ten years.

This really can't go on any longer.

Lin Luo found Jiaoxi again.

Before he could speak, Jiao Xi asked directly, "What new ideas do you have?"

Jiaoxi has been quite bored lately.

As the leader of Lingxiao Sect, it is really boring and nothing to do to take care of a few small people in the sect.

As for cultivation, this kind of thing has long been engraved in her heart. She does it all the time, so it can no longer be considered a new fun.

Jiaoxi is in desperate need of some fresh fun.

Lin Luo explained the functions of the mobile phone to Jiaoxi in detail.

Jiaoxi felt that since one had to refine something when practicing weapon cultivation, it would be fine to refine a mobile phone to play with.

This phone sounds like it's pretty fun. It doesn't have any other impact other than being fun, so it's pretty good.

As for the raw materials needed to refine this mobile phone, Jiao Xi chose to use the Lingxiao Sect's identity jade token.

In fact, the materials used to refine jade slips can also be used. The functions of the thing proposed by Lin Luo can be realized by runes. There are communication runes, timing runes, and photography runes. She only needs to refine a container that can hold these runes. The jade slip has a strong ability to hold runes.

According to Lin Luo's description, everything on the phone can be seen by the eyes and easily operated by the fingers without the need to use spiritual power, and the things inside are also beautifully made.

If it is done well and reaches the level he described, Jiaoxi thinks it can be given to children to play with.

Children are very easy to lose things. The identity jade token can recognize its owner. After playing with it, you can put it directly into the spirit platform or dantian. Therefore, it is more appropriate to use the identity jade token that also has the ability to carry runes to refine it.

After ten days of refining, the Lingxiao Sect's jade token became a jade token that could be directly affixed with talismans without engraving.

At the same time, if you no longer need the effect of this rune, you can delete it directly without using a rune pen to erase it.

One side of the jade plaque has been changed into a drawing board for viewing pictures, writing and drawing, and the function of listening to and playing sounds has been added. She also added many patterns and decorations to the drawing board that can be switched, and the owner of the jade plaque can also draw on it himself.

Xie Ding spent a long time in the library reading books.

Lin Luo asked Jiaoxi to make a mobile phone, and Xie Ding also knew about it.

Jiaoxi felt that she had to tell him so that Xie Ding would know.

As the leader of a sect, Jiaoxi knew very well that she couldn't handle things alone.

The jade token has been refined, and the runes will be handed over to Xie Ding to brush.

Lin Luo was also assigned a task.

He is responsible for introducing the functions of the new jade pendants to the children in advance.

When Lin Luo first heard this request, he was completely confused: "But the product isn't even made yet? How can we introduce it?"

"It's best to introduce something before it's even made," Jiao Xi said. "If you only introduce a few particularly attractive features each day, you'll never let them understand the whole picture."

Lin Luo was even more confused: "Then why do we need to introduce it? Isn't the point of introducing something to make people understand it?"

"You've introduced everything to them, and they don't want to learn anymore."

Lin Luo thought it made a lot of sense.

He began to find some particularly attractive aspects of mobile phones every day to introduce to the children.

On the seventh day, Lin Luo discovered that something was wrong.

The children were a little too excited. They couldn't even sleep and were counting the days until the jade token was refined.

When they were in kendo class, their minds were full of new jade cards.

When they were taking the talisman class, their minds were still full of new jade tokens.

They were very serious when they took the weapon class.

After class, they would chase Jiaoxi, making strange noises while chasing her.

"New jade token... hehe... new jade token... hehe..."

Lin Luo felt a little regretful. It turned out that he shouldn't have let the children experience the feeling of empty promises too early.

Fortunately, they actually used the new jade token not long after.

The new jade pendant has all the functions that Lin Luo introduced.

The new jade pendant also has functions that Lin Luo has not introduced.

The children were crying loudly because of the flying function of the new jade token. Jiaoxi thought about taking it back and modifying it. When she went to get the jade token, they actually grabbed it and refused to let go.

Although they were crying loudly because of the jade pendant, they actually had a lot of fun playing.

Human cubs are indeed the most difficult creatures to understand in the world.

After the new jade token was successfully refined, they actually didn't need to fly much anymore.

Jiaoxi also re-refined the taskbar, and now the functions of the taskbar can be used on the jade token.

In fact, the jade token originally had similar functions of storing virtual spirit stones and assisting in extracting spirit stones in front of the spirit mine. The jade tokens of all major sects have this function. Jiaoxi has become very good at refining this step, and has also refined some more with similar functions. The jade token can really do a lot of things now.

However, Lin Luo felt that it was not enough.

There's one very important thing missing.

He talked to Jiaoxi about it, and Jiaoxi didn't think it was very necessary, but she still made it.

Then the jade token could speak.

"Little friend, do you want to take this orange mission, this green mission, or this gray mission today?"

“I want to fly!”

"You don't like anything? Then just do this red task today!"

[The Heaven-level mission has been accepted, please complete it as soon as possible]

The children were full of questions: "What's going on???"

Lin Luo observed this phenomenon and immediately found Jiao Xi to give feedback.

Jiao Xi was puzzled: "This is done according to your request."

Xie Ding, who participated in the manufacturing, nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, there is absolutely no problem."

"However, humans have no way of communicating with such spirits."

"Don't you mean you can't communicate? I don't think the solution you proposed is going to allow for normal communication with others."

Lin Luo felt very confused after hearing this. It took him a long time to react.

He almost forgot that artificial intelligence has another name in modern times that is more widely spread and popular, suitable for all ages, and always resonates with people and makes them call out in unison.

Everyone who sees Xiao Jin would say he is an idiot.
