Chapter 73: Assumptions for Scientific and Technological Communications
After the battle between the two Nascent Soul Patriarchs, the valley became a mess, including the residences of the other four sects. All the buildings had collapsed. However, the small pool in the valley didn't seem to be affected at all, presumably it was the effect of the restriction of the secret realm.
Although Yuqing's disciples didn't make any effort, they all seemed a little tired after such an exciting night, especially when they were infested by that resentful ghost. However, in their eyes, there is more yearning, yearning for a higher realm and stronger power.
As for the left-behind disciples of the four sects, they don't need to look to know that the danger is more than good. Perhaps when the ghost owl Taoist first arrived, these people were culled and killed by those black shadows. But in this way, this is not the matter of Yu Qingzong's family. After all, among the disciples left behind by each sect, there are foundation-establishment disciples.
Mo Ru swept away his divine sense, knowing that none of the four sects survived, so he took out four paper cranes, wrote a message and threw them into the air. I saw four paper cranes, as if they were alive, circling in mid-air, flapping their wings and flying in all directions, and soon disappeared.
Seeing this scene, Ye Zan couldn't help touching his chin. Although the origami crane looks amazing, compared with the high-tech communication technology, its practicality may still be a lot worse.
In this world, there are many ways of communication, but there is really no communication technology that is as convenient and fast as the communication technology in the technological world.
In the secular world, it is still used in the way of a post station and a fast horse. At most, a flying pigeon is used to pass the letter. No matter the efficiency or the safety, it is terrible. As for the practice world, although it is better than the secular world, there are paper cranes to send messages, flying swords to send letters, and jade charms to send messages, but each has its own problems.
Paper cranes are a relatively common method used by practitioners. Although the speed is not slow, it is not as fast as instant messaging, and if you want to chat more, you can only fold paper cranes back and forth with two people. To put it bluntly, Feijian sent the letter to Feijian, and it was usually used between acquaintances. If the relationship is not very good, this flying sword will have the meaning of provoking a demonstration.
As for the Jade Talisman of Communication, the speed of communication is the fastest, but it is also the least used by practitioners. The reason is very simple, once a message is sent, a set of jade charms must be crushed, and what message to send must be agreed in advance. For example, if it is agreed under what circumstances the other side will crush the jade talisman, then when this side finds that his jade talisman is broken, they will know that the agreed situation has happened there.
From the perspective of people in the technological world, although the principle may be very mysterious, the effect is just like a joke.
However, is the communication technology in the technological world crushing these communication methods?
In fact, it cannot be said to be so absolute. If it is purely from the effect, the technology communication may be instant and efficient. However, it is not as easy as it seems for technology communication to achieve this. For the user, the two sides of the communication simply press a few keys, but behind this, a lot of cost is required to realize this simplicity.
Don't talk about the wisdom of the predecessors, the sacrifices of countless people, just talk about the process of communication. The transfer station required for signal transmission, whether it is a satellite in the sky or a network of base stations on the ground, which one does not require a lot of cost to build. When the world of science and technology develops into the interstellar era, the transmission of information between star fields requires more construction and maintenance costs.
As for this world, let's not mention the primitive communication methods in the secular world, but just talk about these three commonly used methods in the practice world. No matter how effective it is, or how difficult it is to use, at least this is a matter for the two communicators, and there are costs in the process that are also paid by the communicators, such as mana.
So, here comes the problem. If Ye Zan wants to promote technological communication in this world, one of the problems that cannot be avoided is the signal relay.
When they were in the secret realm, the communicators used by Yuqing's disciples had a transmission distance limit. However, the secret realm is only that big, and the area designated for Yu Qingzong is even smaller.
It is impossible for Yuqing's disciples to be too far away from each other.
And what about this so-called Shenhua Domain? Its area is unimaginably huge, and its vertical and horizontal length exceeds tens of thousands of miles, almost comparable to the solar system in the technological world. In such a huge world, it is simply impossible for communication not to go through transit.
There are two ways of signal relay, launching satellites or building ground base stations. Launching a satellite seems to be cheaper, but it was rejected by Ye Zan directly. The outer space of this world is much more terrifying than the starry sky of the technological world.
The outer sky of this world is called the endless void, but even though it is called void, it does not mean that there is really nothing. It is said that in the endless void, there will be void storms blowing through every now and then, and all kinds of evil spirits will be mixed together, and the earth immortal will lose half of his life if he falls in it. Still want to launch a satellite? I'm afraid it will be blown away within a day after going up.
Therefore, ground base stations are more reliable.
Ye Zan is not whimsical, but really wants to make this happen. On a small scale, Yu Qingzong can easily communicate with each other, and on a large scale, he may be able to set up a communication company that monopolizes the world. Of course, the communication company will be considered a long time later, and even if it is established now, it will not be able to hold it with the strength of Yu Qingzong.
In this regard, Ye Zan can be said to have learned a lot from a pitfall. Back then in the world of technology, if the family hadn’t been so eager for quick success and quick profit, and launched the different-dimensional storage technology early, it might not be the result now.
Ye Zan was thinking about the plan in his heart, and seemed a little silent for a while. When Mo Ru looked at the situation, he thought that the grand master's uncle was frightened. After all, no matter how senior Ye Zan was, his age was there. Not everyone can take it lightly after having such an experience.
"Junior Brother," Mo Rushi came to Ye Zan's side, and called out worriedly.
"Ah?" Ye Zan came back to his senses and turned to look to the side.
"My lord, it was my negligence that surprised my lord." Mo Ru pleaded guilty in a voice that only Ye Zan could hear.
Ye Zan was still a little uncomfortable for a while, and usually called Mo Laomo, so he didn't regard Mo Rushi as an elder older than himself. But at this moment, seeing the worry on Mo Rushi's face, Ye Zan actually thought of his father, even though it was bloody.
Coming to this world alone, the family in the technological world is gone, and the blood relatives are gone. I don't think about it just because I don't dare to think about it, but can I really put aside everything and live in this world heartlessly?
"Sir?" Mo Rushi whispered again.
Ye Zan shook his head, as if he wanted to get rid of what he had just thought, then he showed his usual smile and said, "It's okay, I'm fine, am I okay! Lao Mo, what you did just now is really amazing, Don’t talk about the magic weapon, what kind of move is your move that emits so much light, when can I learn it?”
