Chapter 99: 1024 God Worship
Banxia scooped a ladle of clean water from the bucket and poured it into the basin. Then she spread the towel flat in the water, and after it was completely soaked, she picked it up and wrung it dry, then washed her face and hands.
She did it carefully and slowly. She washed her face, tied her hair up, tilted her head back and took a deep breath.
White light poured down from the hole in the kitchen ceiling, falling on the girl's face, forehead, and shoulders. She closed her eyes and remained silent. At this moment, she seemed to be communicating with the gods in the dark. Then Banxia turned and stepped into the living room. Starting from the kitchen, she walked around the coffee table and sofa in the living room. Each step was the same size. She walked in the shape of a C in the living room and then entered the bedroom.
After entering the bedroom and standing at the door, Banxia faced the radio, motherboard and monitor on the table. She opened her hands, clasped them together with a loud "snap", and began to chant a spell:
"God above, computer below, God of 1024, please hear my prayer!"
"I, Banxia, pray to you here, hoping that you can bless my code to run successfully without any errors. I will always remember your mercy."
"Teacher, if you are still alive, please find the God of 1024 and persuade him to show mercy. If he refuses to show mercy, please help him to show mercy."
"Amen."
"Allahu Akbar."
"Amitabha."
"Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable."
The mantra has been recited.
Next came one bow, two bows, and three bows.
After bowing, Banxia had received the blessing of the God of Programming. She felt a constant stream of power rising from the bottom of her heart. Programming was indeed metaphysics. It was necessary to pray before starting work every time. It was hard to imagine those huge Internet companies before the destruction of the world. BG4MXH said that companies specializing in programming were called Internet companies. Those Internet companies had tens of thousands of employees. Would they have a huge venue to worship the God of Programming? The scene of tens of thousands of people bowing to the computer together was quite spectacular.
After finishing the prayer, Banxia sat on the chair, facing the blank monitor. There was a draft paper under the keyboard, with all the codes recorded on it.
What she had to do was very simple, which was to input the code recorded on the paper into the motherboard. This was done under the guidance of experts from China Telecom Jiangsu Branch. The experts could not understand why she had to write the code on paper, but Banxia was obviously still in the era of paper media. She was more accustomed to using a pen to clearly fix the information on paper.
The girl raised her hands and struck the first key.
"Snap!"
Bai Yang woke up in shock.
It turned out that it was He Leqin who was patting his desk, and the get out of class was over.
Bai Yang has appointed Young Master He as the 19th-rank imperial guard with a pencil sharpener, as well as a eunuch in charge of washing hands and opening the door, and he is responsible for waking himself up after school every day.
Bai Yang has been quite muddle-headed in school these days. He either sleeps or daydreams during class. Fortunately, the teachers don't disturb him. Bai Yang's life is too comfortable, which makes He Dashao quite jealous. He Dashao has never understood how this kid can escape the strict supervision of the teachers when his academic performance has been declining like a roller coaster. This guy is not sick or in pain. His grades have dropped from Nanjing Airlines to Nanchang Airlines and then to China Southern Airlines Advanced Technical School. Why don't the teachers care about him?
But Bai Yang said nothing, only that he shouldered the responsibility of saving the world, and asked not to bother him with trivial matters such as the college entrance examination.
He Leqin asked, "You really can't reveal anything?"
Bai Yang lowered his voice and said that anyone who knew would be silenced. Do you still want to know?
Young Master He immediately showed a fearless spirit of facing death. He said, "If I hear the truth in the morning, I am willing to die in the evening. Just tell me. At worst, I can carry you out with me. If we are really killed by a sniper, it won't be just me."
"How is your majesty?" He Leqin asked.
"I am fine." Bai Yang rubbed his eyes. "Where are we going to have lunch today?"
"There is an old braised noodle restaurant on Zijin Road, which has a good reputation," said He Leqin.
"Great, I'll choose this one." Bai Yang collected the textbooks and test papers on the table that he had not had time to open and stuffed them into the drawer.
"Your Majesty, don't forget to treat us today." He Leqin reminded, "We made an appointment yesterday."
"How could this be possible?" Bai Yang said.
"You old thief with gray beard! You old bastard with white hair! I will usurp your throne today..."
"It's true." Bai Yang said.
"Your Majesty is wise."
He Leqin pulled Bai Yang out of the school gate. Yan Ge didn't come because he went to the office to see the teacher for something. She asked the two of them to go eat first.
The two of them strolled along, passing under the city wall and onto the Purple Gold Bridge. He Leqin suddenly pulled Bai Yang hard, put his arm around his shoulders, and pointed forward: "Hey, hey, little Aries! Little Aries! Look!"
Bai Yang looked in the direction of his finger and frowned, "What are you looking at?"
There are people coming and going and traffic on the bridge.
"Look at that sister!" Young Master He lowered his voice, "The one in black, does she look familiar to you?"
Bai Yang then realized who He Leqin was talking about. This guy had very sharp eyes. There was a tall young girl standing on the Zijin Bridge, with her arms folded, leaning on the marble railings, looking lazily at the sparkling moat under the bridge, like a foreign tourist admiring the scenery.
She wore a black turtleneck sweater on the upper body, slim royal blue jeans on the lower body, white sneakers, and short black hair. She lowered her eyes as if she was resting. Her temperament was calm and clear. Another feature that surprised Bai Yang was that this sister was very tall, estimated to be at least 1.75 meters tall.
"Does it look familiar?"
Bai Yang stood there looking for a long time. He Leqin was right. The more he looked at her, the more familiar she looked. He suddenly remembered where he had seen her before.
It was the agile waitress I met while eating soup dumplings the day before yesterday!
"Should we go say hello?" He Leqin asked in a low voice, "At least she saved our clothes."
Bai Yang hesitated for a moment, "I think we should just forget it... She might not even remember us, what if she thinks we're here to flirt with her?"
The two cowardly dogs quickly reached a consensus, pretended not to know each other, and walked over with gritted teeth.
The closer they got, the more Bai Yang realized that the girl was tall, taller than him. The two pretended to be passers-by, walking across the Zijin Bridge without looking at each other. The girl didn't even look at them, but just leaned on the railing to look at the scenery on the moat.
Only when they walked to a place where no one could be seen did Bai Yang and He Leqin start whispering to each other.
"He's so tall."
"He has to be about 1.75 meters tall, right?"
"She didn't follow?"
"This is the first time I've seen a girl with such good skills. She might have practiced martial arts. She's so tall. I think she can kill me with one punch."
"Be more confident. She can kill both of us with one punch."
"But we met twice in two days. This is fate."
It was indeed fate. When fate comes, nothing can stop it. In the next ten minutes, Bai Yang and He Leqin deeply felt this. They found a seat in the restaurant, called the waiter, and chatted while waiting. Soon, the waiter came with crisp footsteps -
"What would you two like to order?"
"Excuse me, is there a menu..." Bai Yang was suddenly stunned.
This waitress is so tall.
His eyes climbed up along the royal blue jeans and black turtleneck sweater, and he looked up at the other person's face, and then they were both so shocked that they almost fell off their butts at the same time.
The girl with short black hair held the menu in one hand and slowly twirled a ballpoint pen in the other. The corners of her mouth slightly raised and she blinked at Bai Yang.
