But the response he got was...
"Hey, Brother Xu! Why is there no sound? Is the telecommunication array not stable? Why can't I hear you? Are you still there? Brother Xu—"
"There's sound, there's sound! I can hear on my end!" Xu Xiangqian hurriedly said, waving towards the light screen, making various gestures to his old friend.
But the light screen resolutely dimmed.
"Hey, what's happening, what's happening?" Xu Xiangqian shouted loudly: "What's wrong with your telecommunication array in Jishuang City?"
The clerk who operated the telecommunication array walked into the ice house: "Young Master Xu, what's wrong?"
Xu Xiangqian was somewhat annoyed: "I was having a great conversation with my good friend, why did it suddenly cut off? You fix it quickly, the time of Ganma Mountain's Two Pride is precious!"
