Above the earth.

Lin Man is in a meeting.

This conference was held by Nature magazine to discuss the "Energy Universe".

After Lin Man was nominated for the Nobel Prize for his article "The Structure and Origin of the Energy Universe", he did not win the prize that year. It is not uncommon for the Nobel Prize to be awarded based on seniority, especially in physics, where the average age is 55. Lin Chong was only 29 years old at the time, of course, that was the age listed on his household registration.

If Lin Man applied for the award with her real age and won the prize, her age would not be lowered, but would be raised by about 4 years. Up to that time, only 210 people on earth had won the physics prize.

In short, although it did not win the award, the energy universe theory quickly gained attention within the scientific community in the following three years as Lin Man continued to propose further theoretical systems and verification methods.

The news that Lin Man is accelerating the improvement of his theory and preparing to conduct experiments has stimulated people in the physics community.

After all, with the development of physics to this day, most of the time people are just fantasizing with their brains, such as M theory and superstring theory. Frontier physics has gone too far, and practical physicists have called for "slow down your pace and wait for your followers."

What fascinates scientists is the grand unified cosmology of the energy universe. Traditional classical physics, which was torn to pieces by the theory of relativity, seems to have regained life.

And quantum mechanics, this charming, ubiquitous and unpredictable little goblin, seems to be able to dance in the scientists' prison.

Everything originated from the X-factor proposed by Lin Man. Some scientists dug out the research that seemed like a mythical prophecy from the archives and named it "omnipotent ether" or "God particle".

Lin Man knew very well that these were not the same thing. The former was a fantasy and the latter was a dream, but the X factor really existed.

It is its real existence that drives scientists crazy.

They followed the experimental method proposed by Lin Man and found the erratic X-factor. This experiment is so simple and yet so classic that it is destined to go down in the history of the world along with names like "Leaning Tower of Pisa Free Fall" and "Double-Slit Interference Experiment".

As Lin Man continues to publish new research results, the word "goddess" is no longer enough to describe the admiration that science believers have for her. GAIA (Mother of Creation) has become Lin Man's latest nickname.

That’s why Nature held a series of discussion meetings and invited Lin Man to participate.

But at this meeting, Lin Man received the summons from 704 and put on a VR helmet in the conference lounge to slay demons and monsters.

After chopping off the old monk's head.

Lin Man took off the VR helmet.

She was sitting on the large white sofa in the VIP lounge of the Capital National Convention Center when she suddenly felt an itch on her wrist. She rolled up her sleeves and saw a circle of golden Buddhist beads on her wrist.

This is……?

…

At the same time, ZERO was surprised to find that the system had a blue screen. After the blue screen, a bunch of dirty words in various languages ​​exploded on the screen, as if "a silver bottle suddenly broke and water burst out". Among them, there was a faint sound of "Fuck, there are still people rushing to issue tasks". It seemed that the system was going crazy.

…

In less than an hour, Lin Chong also knew the abnormality that Lin Man had experienced.

Lin Man is on Earth, separated from the Journey to the West by countless space and time, yet she is... attacked? Is this an attack?

Lin Man is temporarily unable to go online.

Lin Chong frowned and began to investigate the past of Zhu Falan, the Indian monk.

During the reign of Emperor Ming of the Eastern Han Dynasty, a monk went to Lingshan in Xiniuhezhou to seek Buddhist scriptures. On his return, he brought back Zhu Falan, who then lived in the White Horse Temple.

It has been more than 1,800 years.

During these 1,800 years, his appearance and voice remained unchanged. His hobby was to write Buddhist scriptures by hand. The Buddhist treasure, the Sutra of Forty-two Chapters, was written by him. During these 1,800 years, he did not utter a word.

From the Han Dynasty to the Tang Dynasty, dynasties changed, but the incense of the White Horse Temple has always been prosperous. In addition, in this immortal era, there are many immortal saints who have lived for a long time. There are also great men in history who are called the Three Saints in the current dynasty.

Therefore, people just thought that Zhu Falan was a similar person, so it was not surprising that he lived so long.

But Zhu Falan's daily actions were indeed no different from those of ordinary people. Except for the fact that he didn't speak, which was a bit strange, he was just a thin and dark old monk from India.

As for why the land immortal recorded that Zhu Falan was a figure of the Meritorious Immortal Sect, it was actually because thirty-one years ago, when the immortal saint left the mortal world, all the great Buddhist virtues disappeared, and the Great Leiyin Temple on Lingshan Mountain was deserted, without even a single monk left.

Even if the Buddhist tradition in this world is gone, Zhu Falan is still in the world. The land immortal feels that he must be a member of the Merit Immortal Sect, close to Buddha, but not Buddha. This is just a guess.

"In Buddhism, one becomes a saint through merit. If Zhu Falan is really a Buddhist disciple and has accomplished the merit of sending Buddhist scriptures to the east, then isn't he just like Tang Monk in the Eastern Han Dynasty? Why shouldn't he be named a Buddha?" Lin Chong pondered.

As for Zhu Falan's possession by a demon, it happened suddenly a few days ago. He was clearly an ordinary person the day before, but on the second day he passed the heavenly tribulation and had a demon possessed his body.

In the following days, he was still the monk with his eyes and mouth closed during the day, but at night his eyes were filled with devil fire and his mouth was filled with devil words, which was very scary.

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

As for why he had been thinking about the 'people from outside the sky' all the time and using himself as a coordinate to reflect himself in the water mirror in the void, no one knew why.

This question was not answered until Lin Man was free and online.

"That monk used himself as bait to summon the demon, then tried to refine the demon, but failed. So he called for the 'savior' who could save the world to help him, and then I showed up."

"He gave me something, which should be the key to repelling this demonic calamity."

As she spoke, Lin Man showed her wrist. Even in Mount Buzhou, the mark still existed, just like the half petal on her forehead.

"But I don't know what this is." Lin Man added.

"How did you know?" Lin Chong was surprised. "I didn't see you guys communicating much?"

"Didn't I ask for the sound wave pendant and recite the Ksitigarbha Sutra? He recited the Heart Sutra. This is Zen saying and communication of the heart." Lin Man pointed to her heart.

"Ah...so impressive." Lin Chong nodded sincerely in praise.

"I don't think he is from the Merit Immortal Sect. He might be a member of the Buddhist sect who stayed in this world." Lin Man added, "That's why I recited the Ksitigarbha Sutra. By the way, his relics contain the heart of the devil. We need to take it back."

Lin Man hurriedly logged off and forgot to take the relic.

But it is too late to look for it now. The incident of the abbot of the White Horse Temple being beheaded by a woman with a knife has become a strange story in Luoyang. There were many monks there that day, and later on, government officials came too. The scene was in chaos, and the relic was gone.

After 704 analyzed the scene at that time, it took a while to find a monk who secretly took the relic. After the abbot was chopped, the other monks were either trembling like chickens, angry like cattle, or crying like rabbits.

Only he seemed to have heard something. He listened for a while, then calmed down and secretly took away the relic in the chaos.

When 704 sent the monk's face to Lin Chong, Lin Chong felt that the monk looked very familiar. He asked 704 to add hair to the picture, the bun that people in the Tang Dynasty often wore. Then, a face that he had just seen not long ago came into Lin Chong's eyes.

"Isn't this Wei Yingwu?" Lin Chong said.
