At twelve noon, Dong Jun sent the revised code as promised.
Of course, this code got everyone’s attention.
The modified code was written completely in Dong Jun’s personal style, extremely concise, extremely indifferent, it was almost impossible to see its original form.
Jiang Lian, “Didn’t Dong Jun say he stopped writing code?”
Zhao Jiagou, “Why would you believe what a man says, besides, he didn’t make a definitive statement.”
As he said this, he touched Lin Xun. “Are you happy?”
“I…” Lin Xun said, “I am speechless at this moment.”
Wang Anquan, “You can’t be happier.”
After a while, Lin Xun looked at the code and said, “It’s so beautiful.”
Zhao Jiagou, “I like the code too.”
Jiang Lian, “I also think it looks good.”
Wang Anquan, “Actually, I’m also…”
There was a saying, “A person’s handwriting represents their character,” and it was the same when it came to coding.
Wang Anquan’s code had a loose structure, but the details were particularly rigorous. The code details of Jiagou were often full of mistakes, but the overall design was excellent.
Jiang Lian’s code was uninspired, didn’t have any distinguishing characteristics, but it could fulfill the requirements strangely enough.
And his own code…according to others: We can see that you are trying to write well.
Dong Jun’s code had a very distinct style. Lin Xun would be able to recognize it immediately among the many codes out there.
It was very concise, and extremely accurate, there were no extra sentences, and even had a hint of coldness because of its mechanical beauty. In the world of code, it seemed as if Dong Jun was in control of everything.
According to the code, Dong Jun should be an indifferent, dominating superior——so, at first Lin Xun was a little afraid to talk when he got along with Dong Jun, but later he discovered that Dong Jun didn’t seem to be that way at all.
They imported the code, ran it, and of course the result was perfect.
While the module was uploading, Wang Anquan went to soak the wolfberry, Zhao Jiagou drank milk, Jiang Lian drank water, and Lin Xun looked at the interface in a daze.
After a long while, he said, “Why won’t Dong Jun let me write code by myself?”
No one spoke, he continued to mutter to himself, “My code level is really bad, but why is it bad?”
He was a bit in denial. When it came to computers and programming, he couldn’t accept that he was bad.
“In reality, I have written a lot of code.” He said.
Wang Anquan came back. “It’s quite a lot.”
Lin Xun, “And I didn’t just come into contact with computers after I entered university, I’ve played with this thing since I was a child.”
Wang Anquan, “I know.”
Lin Xun, “So why is my programming level so much worse than my algorithm level?”
Wang Anquan, “This is indeed strange.”
Jiang Lian said, “It’s normal, you can’t specialize in both.”
Zhao Jiagou smiled and said, “Brother Jiang, this person will not listen. He is a lemon and cannot accept that others are better than him.”
Lin Xun said, “This is unreasonable, and I just discovered this today.”
Zhao Jiagou, “What?”
Lin Xun, “Programming shouldn’t be a difficult thing for me.”
He knew that this might be a bit arrogant, but he didn’t mean to brag about his level or IQ.
Programming isn’t actually difficult, it is a field where practice makes perfect.
If you like programming and have a little bit of talent, and manage to write one hundred thousand lines of code, although you won’t be considered a master in the field, you’ll at least produce decent code.
But when Lin Xun looked at his code and examined it objectively, he found that it was quite unpleasant.
“That’s impossible.” He frowned. “Unless I only focused on writing algorithms and didn’t write any programs since I was a kid. But that’s not the case; the programs I write cannot be like this. This is a paradox.”
He continued to say, “But I did write a lot of programs, otherwise how did those projects come about?”
Neither Zhao Jiagou nor Wang Anquan said anything, only Jiang Lian looked at him and then at Anquan and Jiagou.
Wang Anquan shrugged. “It’s okay, he often acts like this. People’s anger is largely due to their incompetence.”
Lin Xun, “I’m not incompetent, I just suddenly felt something was amiss.”
Wang Anquan, “You’ve just been focusing on algorithms in the past few years.”
Lin Xun, “You mean I’ve regressed? No, I must get my groove back. Even my male god despises my programming.”
Wang Anquan, “Wake up! What Dong Jun meant when he said that you shouldn’t write code, was to allow Brother Jiang to take care of the programming aspect. You should focus on writing algorithms, make optimizations, do tests…”
Lin Xun, “…Alright.”
Some matters needed to be prioritized, Luo Shen’s functions must be perfected in a month. He really had to spend his time on this first.
Thinking of this, he turned to Jiang Lian. “Brother Jiang.”
Jiang Lian looked at him.
Lin Xun, “Brother Jiang, happy cooperation this month.”
Jiang Lian seemed hesitant, but two seconds later, he stretched out his hand towards Lin Xun.
Lin Xun smiled and shook hands with Jiang Lian. “Thank you, Brother Jiang.”
This handshake meant that Jiang Lian would work with them steadily for at least one month, and Lin Xun felt that success was in sight.
At this moment, the module finished loading and everything went smoothly.
Lin Xun sent a message to Dong Jun: It’s solved, thank you ^ ^
Dong Jun: You’re welcome.
Lin Xun: I don’t know how to thank you. I feel it is not enough to invite you to dinner.
Dong Jun: Don’t worry about it. After all, I am also a part of Luo Shen Company.
Lin Xun, “…”
He thought, it sounded quite reasonable.
Lin Xun: Haha.
Dong Jun: However, there is indeed something I’d like your help with.
Lin Xun: What is it?
Dong Jun: Do you like cats?
Lin Xun: Yes.
——In fact, he had always wanted to raise a small animal. But this dream was shattered on the first day he moved to Chaoyang community, and Xiao Chen told them that he was allergic to animal hair.
Dong Jun said: I am going to Canada for ten days, and I want to find a temporary owner for my cat.
Lin Xun: ?!
Lin Xun: I can!
Dong Jun: Should I send it to your place tomorrow?
Lin Xun: I can pick it up. You must be very busy.
Dong Jun: Okay, then I will trouble you.
Lin Xun: It’s okay!
As Lin Xun put down his phone, he was no longer depressed with his unreasonably poor programming level.
Dong Jun actually had a cat.
——And he would temporarily have a cat soon.
On the other hand, the module ran successfully, and Luo Shen’s functions were even more perfect, which was worthy of being joyful over.
After a brief celebration, they continued to devote their time and put in a hard day’s work until 7pm, and Jiang Lian had to return to his residence.
“You can move over if you don’t mind,” Lin Xun said, “It’ll be more convenient.”
Jiang Lian nodded. “I’ll think about it.”
Lin Xun opened the door and sent him out—a scent of perfume wafted in front of him.
Lin Xun, “…”
A butterfly flew to his shoulder. Mrs. Butterfly was walking up the stairs from the second floor, wearing a strapless purple dress and silver high heels. Behind her were two bodyguards with tattoos on their faces, a distinguishing feature of the Nanzhao nationality.
“Ah, baby!” Mrs. Butterfly smiled in surprise. “Are you also living here?”
Lin Xun, “Why did senior come?”
Mrs. Butterfly said, “I have to discuss the rules of slaying demons with some Taoists later tonight.”
Lin Xun looked at her stiletto high heels, and then at the steep stairs. He said, “I will help you up.”
Mrs. Butterfly rolled her eyes and stretched out her right arm. “Sweet.”
Lin Xun helped her up to the fourth floor. Before leaving, he saw Jiang Lian with a stunned expression again.
He thought, Mrs. Butterfly was quite famous——there was a billboard featuring Mrs. Butterfly across the community. He guessed Jiang Lian might be asking himself the same question at this moment: What is this place?
As soon as the door to the fourth floor opened, Lin Xun was presented with a completely open and remodeled unit. The apartment was decorated beautifully and styled as if it belonged to a scholarly family. There were wooden furnishings, made from mahogany, and paintings hung on the walls.
The living room was exceptionally large, and the jade coffin was set against the living room wall.
Qingcheng Mountain, Wanfo Sect, Tianyan Sect…All sects sent their elders and elite disciples. Those who had a house in the capital would live in their own house, and those who did not have a room will live in Chaoyang community.
Chang Ji stood behind Master Wanchan.
Master Wanchan, “According to me, there are three urgent tasks. First, look for the evil seeds and try to eliminate them. Second, locate the cracks between the demon world and the human world, repair them, and delay the arrival of demons. Third, look for the emperor. This way, even if we fail to stop the demons and the demon world completely overlaps with the human world, we’ll still have a chance of survival.”
Xiaoyao Zi said, “Master Wanchan is right. If you have any suggestions on how we can carry out these three points, just feel free to say.”
——Long discussion began.
The discussion went on for a while to no avail.
In the end, everyone could only agree to clean up the evil seeds in the capital from tomorrow. As for the unidentified number of cracks between the two worlds of humans and demons, they would need some luck to find them.
As for searching for the emperor——it was even more difficult. They couldn’t let everyone in the capital come and draw this sword, that would be unrealistic.
So, the meeting was adjourned, and they went back separately.
It was already nine o’clock in the evening, and Lin Xun was about to open the door when there was a beep from his phone and a message popped up.
Military Green Flower: Hello?
Military Green Flower: There will be action tonight.
