Rebel Demon King

Chapter 702 Love is a Light
(Thanks to "The Great Demon King Xiao Xiao", "The Dream of Love on the Other Shore", and "love/Nine Foxes" for their rewards, I stayed up all night to get this chapter out, please ask for a monthly ticket, and I wish you all a happy new year!)

Cheng Mo walked on the site of Tsinghua's most grand welcome party in history, stepping on a thin red carpet, he thought to himself that the quality of this red carpet was worrying, it was not as soft as a Persian carpet at all, it was probably the kind of special carpet that the school learned from Jinxiu Land. I bought it wholesale from a place that sells wholesale carpets. Fortunately, there are no bouquets next to the red carpet, otherwise it feels like a wedding scene.

As he walked, he looked at Xie Minyun on the stage. He hadn't seen her for two years. She looked even more goddess and unattainable. Her clear face exuded nobility and arrogance to the fullest. The light emitted by millions of spotlights on the stage is not worth mentioning. Where she is, everything is a foil. Such a beautiful Xie Minyun, who is as bright as the stars, makes Cheng Mo feel flustered.

But when he saw that Xie Minyun was still wearing the dress they wore when they parted in Yuelu Mountain, Cheng Mo felt a little more at ease. He felt that Xie Minyun seemed to be telling him in this way that she was the same as before and had not changed.

Even so, Cheng Mo's heart was still a little uneasy. It was the first time he had experienced the great power of love so clearly. The two years of separation seemed to be unable to extinguish the fire in his heart. After a long period of depression, when he was suddenly released, the fire Unbelievable energy erupted.

The light was getting closer and closer, and Xie Minyun was also getting closer, Cheng Mo felt hot all over, as if he was like a match, which might burn at any time.

Cheng Mo looked at Xie Minyun under the spotlight. She was so dazzling that Cheng Mo dared not look directly at her. Cheng Mo guessed that it was because the white one-shoulder dress worn by Xie Minyun looked like a wedding dress.

Cheng Mo finally walked through the middle of the infield, and when he passed his own row of 9 seats, a voice stopped him, "Hey! Since you are going to be on stage, why don't you bring a bouquet of flowers."

Cheng Mo turned his head and looked at Qi Shilong who was sitting in the 9th row and 8th seat. He had just seen him on the big screen outside the gymnasium. He was a handsome Prince Charming in white. Unfortunately, Xie Minyun was not a princess, she was from a foreign country. Queen of space.Cheng Mo shifted his gaze to the silver drill tube placed on his stool, he hesitated for a moment and asked, "Why, you don't want this flower anymore?"

Qi Shilong's smile didn't look like Prince Charming at all, like a gray wolf carrying a frying pan, "Yes, so. If you want, you can take this bouquet of flowers up and present it to Xie Minyun. I think she will be happy."

Cheng Mo looked at the gorgeous flowers that seemed to be watered by fresh blood. There were several crystal clear water droplets on the delicate petals. He thought of NGC2237 (Rose Nebula). If he wanted to give Xie Minyun flowers, he would definitely Inlaid a picture of NGC2237 with rubies and diamonds, Cheng Mo regretted that he couldn't do it now, but he decided to take the first step in his life, he asked Qi Shilong dryly: "I just want one flower, is that okay?" ?”

Qi Shilong took out the biggest flower from the silver tube and handed it to Cheng Mo, and said with a smile, "Of course." His smile was extraordinarily sincere, sincere like a charlatan who couldn't help smiling when he had cheated the customer of his money.

Cheng Mo took the roses from Qi Shilong's hands, and said in a low voice, "I didn't take your flowers for nothing, it's a fee for you to use my seat."

Qi Shilong's expression was a little stunned for a moment, and he asked in surprise: "Seat 9, row 9. This...is this your seat?"

Cheng Mo nodded, took out a crumpled ticket stub from his trouser pocket and handed it to Qi Shilong, then said, "Thank you."

Qi Shilong took the ticket stub in a daze, and looked at the seat number on it. It was indeed 9th row and 9th seat in the infield. He was a little curious why Cheng Mo didn't come. He was about to ask a question, but he saw Cheng Mo had already walked several steps. I don’t know if it’s because the lighting engineer was too bored, so he chased the light on this unattractive little boy in front of him. He was holding a rose in his hand and walking in front of thousands of pairs of eyes. In the focused beam of light.

"Dare to appear on stage like this? It's too rough! If I were Xie Minyun, I probably wouldn't even give him a chance to ask him questions!"

"Qi Shilong and Du Leng still look the same, what the hell is this new student?"

"I don't know if Xie Minyun's charm is too great, or this freshman's courage is too great!"

"I bet he can't answer a single question! Xie Minyun will probably give him a super difficult question."

All kinds of doubts flowed in the crowd. Some people even joked that when Cheng Mo stepped down, he would go up to the stage to answer Xie Minyun's question. Even if he couldn't answer, it would not be embarrassing, and he could get close to the goddess in his heart. .

Except for a very few people, no one is optimistic about this ordinary-looking boy. Everyone is waiting to see his jokes. Although even if they are jokes, his jokes are far less worth mentioning than the first two, but more or less When it comes to this big scene that caused a sensation in the whole school later, Cheng Mo's name can be simplified into a number, which is juxtaposed with the previous two. This is not a success.

Cheng Mo turned a deaf ear to these things. In fact, these melon-eating people did not exist to him. He only had Xie Minyun who was dressed like a bride in his eyes. He walked along the edge of the stage and walked by Du Leng, who finally couldn't keep smiling. , He didn't look at Du Leng, and didn't even notice Yu Junshan standing in the shadows. These people are irrelevant, and at this second, only Xie Minyun is left in his universe.

He stepped onto the stage and suddenly felt that Tsinghua's comprehensive gymnasium was quite big. Even though it was full of people, it still looked empty under the dome. He walked towards Xie Minyun in the middle under the scorching spotlights. A layer of dark purple velvet, on which there are many circles of spotlights solidified, like floating bubbles.

Cheng Mo walked up to Xie Minyun with a rose in his hand, a distance he had walked for two years.

Xie Minyun, who was originally facing the stands, turned around for the first time. When she asked Qi Shilong and Du Leng a question, she didn't shake a little bit, but at this moment she turned around and faced Cheng Mo who was walking from the side of the stage. .

The two people stared at each other silently for a while in the center of the stage, so the whole gymnasium fell silent, and everyone opened their mouths wide to watch this seemingly unbelievable scene.

Even just turning around was enough to surprise them.

A few seconds later, the two opened their mouths at the same time, and then closed their mouths at the same time. After a few seconds again, Xie Minyun smiled lightly, and everything revived like a glacier melting.Cheng Mo scratched the itchy scalp that was illuminated by the spotlight, and said softly: "Sister, you go first."

Xie Minyun glanced at the rose in Cheng Mo's hand, snorted coldly and said, "I have nothing to say to the person who intends to give me roses bought by others!"

Xie Minyun's cold tone made Cheng Mo's usually expressionless face tense. He also knew it was inappropriate, but he didn't want to go on stage empty-handed. He let out a long "ah" in embarrassment, and pushed the bridge of his nose. Looking at the glasses, he whispered anxiously in his heart: "How about I return the flowers?"

Xie Minyun said angrily: "What time are you wasting? Answer the questions first, and if you can't answer the questions, there is more time for you to pay back!"

Cheng Mo lowered his head and wiped the sweat from his forehead. He didn't dare to look at Xie Minyun's expression. He was afraid that what he saw was that Xie Minyun was really angry. Thinking about it, she did have sufficient reasons to be angry. Cheng Mo hurriedly Said: "Ask!"

The moment Cheng Mo lowered his head, he missed Xie Minyun's gesture of raising his hand to wipe her sweat. Unfortunately, the moment he raised his head, Xie Minyun remembered something again, so he immediately put his hand back and turned it into taking it from the microphone stand. The movement of the microphone, she held up the microphone and said: "A finite complete graph Kn, n is an even number, you and I take turns to select and delete from Kn in turn, I will move first until all the points are even numbers, the game stops, The last person to operate wins, for a given n, do I or do you have a winning strategy?"

Seeing that Xie Minyun pointed the microphone at himself, Cheng Mo replied without hesitation: "Of course it's you."

Xie Minyun looked at Cheng Mo and asked, "Did you know the result without even calculating it?"

Cheng Mo answered as a matter of course: "Knowing the examiner is also what the examinee should do, not to mention that it is not difficult to calculate this question."

Xie Minyun nodded, "Then you have to be careful next time."

There was an uproar in the stands. They didn't even understand the question. Is this the end of the question?Isn't it a bit of a joke!
Xie Minyun didn't care about the hustle and bustle in the stands, and continued to ask: "Where are the different pictures of "Mona Lisa Smile"?"

Xie Minyun asked Du Leng about this question at the beginning, and everyone was very curious about the answer to this question, so the hustle and bustle stopped abruptly, and everyone looked at Cheng Mo in the middle of the stage to see if he could answer it.

This question couldn’t be easier for Cheng Mo. When they visited the Louvre together, they discussed Da Vinci and his masterpiece, so Cheng Mo said to the microphone: “Mona Lisa is Da Vinci. Vinci painted a portrait of his father’s tenant’s wife. Legend has it that Da Vinci painted two portraits of the Mona Lisa. One of the evidences is that the painting San Raphael once copied "The Smile of the Mona Lisa" ", while the original painting of San Raphael has eyebrows, so there is no doubt that Da Vinci painted two "Mona Lisa Smile", one with eyebrows and one without eyebrows. The real one with eyebrows is hidden under the one without eyebrows, so both paintings are hidden in the Louvre.”

Xie Minyun nodded, "Correct."

The audience in the audience was silent. None of them knew whether what Cheng Mo said was true or not.

Xie Minyun looked at Cheng Mo's trouser pocket and asked, "Did you watch the live video just now?"

Cheng Mo nodded.

"Then what's wrong with the expression about black holes in the popular science AR video just played?"

At this time, everyone's eyes turned to the direction of the astronomy department, but the freshmen in the astronomy department looked dull, fully showing that I was very confused.

Cheng Mo closed his eyes and recalled for a while, and said: "There are always a large number of objects with light sources in the area around the black hole. The black hole does not exist independently in an independent space, so the black hole does not show the redshift effect when there is an external light source. You can imagine a spherical light source moving towards you. Due to the relativistic Doppler effect, the frequency of the photons flying towards you decreases, that is, it turns blue. At the same time, the number of photons you receive per unit time will also increase, which is similar to Ordinary Doppler effect, you can treat each photon as a wave crest, so the light source will become brighter. On the contrary, what you see on the side facing away from the light source is that the light source becomes darker and redder. If the light source The speed of the black hole is quite close to the speed of light, and most of the energy is concentrated and radiated to the rear of the light source, like a very narrow beam, so it is called the absolutist bunching effect. Perhaps in order to make the black hole more intuitive, the redshift that is difficult for ordinary people to understand The effect is canceled"

Xie Minyun watched Cheng Mo's lips curled up, showing an expression of appreciation, and said lightly: "Yes, I have noticed this, it is correct."

At this time, the principal was not calm anymore, and turned to ask the professor of the astronomy department sitting behind him. The gray-haired old professor laughed at himself and said, "Even I ignored this. If the student didn't say it just now, I haven't thought about it yet." stand up."

The principal looked up at Cheng Mo and said, "This student is not simple!"

All the discussions around could not disturb the two of them, Xie Minyun continued to ask: "How can I see the sun rising from the west in a normal way?"

Seeing that Xie Minyun asked another unthinkable question, the whole gymnasium fell silent again. Qi Shilong, who was sitting in the infield, heaved a sigh of relief, and said in his heart: "Although you answered the previous questions correctly, this kind of impossible question is impossible. Things, how to answer?" Then he was very annoyed and wondered why the first question Xie Minyun asked him was so difficult, but it seemed that he couldn't answer any of the questions just now, which made Qi Shilong fall into anxiety again Among them, praying for Cheng Mo to get off quickly, or else his face will be humiliated.

The audience on the stage was also thinking about this impossible topic. Some people said to move to Venus, and some people said to fly in a super fast plane in the opposite direction of the earth, but this is not normal!
Everyone in the gymnasium thought that this was the end of Cheng Mo, but they had memorized the name and answered Xie Minyun's three questions correctly, surpassing Du Leng and Qi Shilong's men.
However, they were quickly disappointed. Standing under the spotlight, Cheng Mo thought for a moment and said very calmly: "It's very simple. The earth rotates eastward by itself, so we see that the sun rises from the east and sets from the west. To put it simply, if you want to see the sun rising from the west, you only need to move in the opposite direction to the direction the earth rotates. When the speed of movement exceeds the speed of the earth's rotation, you can see the sun rising from the west, which is close to two It is difficult for ordinary people to achieve such a speed of one thousand kilometers, but there is a way. When you go to the South Pole or the North Pole, the latitude of the pole is relatively high and the radius of rotation is relatively small. In this case, you can take an evening flight Airplanes flying from Canada to Alaska, or Moscow to Helsinki, Finland. Alaska and Helsinki have high latitudes, and the earth’s rotation speed is low. The speed of the aircraft can easily exceed the earth’s rotation speed. At this time, it is easy to see the sun go down first and then from West Rises."

After the entire gymnasium was silent for a while, there was warm applause. Tsinghua University is a school that respects wisdom. Cheng Mo won the applause of all Tsinghua students with his incredible thinking ability and reaction speed.

Only then did someone remember that Cheng Mo was the number one scholar in arts and sciences in southern Hunan Province, and someone suddenly yelled out, "This is not a big guy from southern Hunan Province. He took the college entrance examination for both arts and sciences at the same time, and got a perfect score of 749 at the same time." ?"

"It seems to be eh, how could it be him?"

"No wonder he is so good! I think he can answer ten questions correctly!" Someone said excitedly.

"The previous questions are already so difficult, and the latter ones should be even more difficult."

"I am really looking forward to the next question, I feel that I have learned a lot!"

The tense and exciting Q&A between Xie Minyun and Cheng Mo continued. The audience seemed to have seen an exciting quiz show, and it was like being in the scene with the strongest brain. The questions Xie Minyun asked were either tricky or weird However, Cheng Mo calmly solved Xie Minyun's problems time and time again, winning thunderous applause time and time again.

If it wasn't Xie Minyun who asked the question, and the prize was Xie Minyun's date, everyone would definitely think that Cheng Mo was invited by Xie Minyun. Seeing that Cheng Mo had reached the ninth question, the mood and breathing of all the audience became urgent. For most people, seeing Xie Minyun relegated to the mortal world and dating a boy she would never fall in love with was considered a farce, at least it was much better than seeing Xie Minyun dating Du Leng, or dating Qi Shilong.

After all, Xie Minyun is more likely to be with Du Leng and Qi Shilong than with Cheng Mo. In addition, Cheng Mo's IQ and solid knowledge base make them have to admire. Everyone feels that if Cheng Mo is not The looks are too ordinary, and they are considered to be suitable for a true scholar goddess like Xie Minyun, but the two of them are so mismatched in appearance, which makes them both regretful and fortunate.

Anyway, Xie Minyun is Tsinghua's Xie Minyun, not someone's Xie Minyun.

However, when Xie Minyun asked the ninth question, everyone thought that Xie Minyun would make it more difficult to ask a difficult problem that made people give up thinking, such as "NP problem", "Hood Strange Conjecture" or "Riemann Hypothesis". Xie Minyun asked a question that made the hearts of all the boys tremble.

Standing in the golden halo of the spotlight with a microphone in hand, she asked, "What would you do if you were asked to confess your love to a girl!?"

As soon as this question was asked, even the dullest people knew what was going on with the two people on the stage, and the decibels were so high that it was almost comparable to a vegetable market. You must know that this is Tsinghua University, which has always been famous for its high quality.

Cheng Mo, who was standing opposite Xie Minyun, turned a deaf ear to the huge commotion. He met Xie Minyun's clear eyes and said softly, "I will take her to see the aurora."

Xie Minyun was stunned for a second, then echoed: "It's really romantic."

Qi Shilong, who was sitting under the stage, couldn't bear such a big stimulus anymore, and said loudly in his seat angrily: "What's so romantic about seeing the aurora? Xie Minyun, if you want, I can take you to live in a space hotel!"

Qi Shilong's clamor did not cause any waves, because the phalanx of the Faculty of Science burst into deafening applause, and then someone shouted: "Cheng Mo is awesome!"

Some people shouted unscrupulously: "Cheng Mo, you are the last love master of our science students!"

"Cheng Mo took Xie Minyun to see the aurora!"

Many people didn't understand why, and asked, "What's the matter? What's wrong with seeing the aurora?"

Someone said with tears in their eyes: "Don't you know that the aurora is green!"

"Green?"

"Love is a ray of light, so green that you panic?"

"I guess I thought it was romantic to watch Aurora, but now that you've said that, I don't think it's appropriate to watch Aurora's confession?"

"Damn, so you idiots don't understand the romance of men in science and engineering!"

"So? Showing something green to someone you like is a confession?"

"You know what a fart! The wavelength of green light is 520!!!"

"Grass! Is this okay?"

"This operation is full of convincing!!!!"

"As expected of the last master of love in science and engineering!"

"A godlike way to confess! Got it! Got it!"

"Is this the real way to open "Green Light"?"

"Double champion in arts and sciences is indeed a double champion in arts and sciences! Amazing brains!"

-----------------

On the stage, Xie Minyun was of course able to get to Cheng Mo's confession. For the first time, she lowered the volume slightly, and her originally slightly cold tone became softer, "Then the last question." After a slight pause, Xie Minyun stared intently. With Cheng Mo, she opened her red lips after a while, and asked in a soft voice: "Then you won the chance to date me, where will you take me?"

Xie Minyun's sound wave was like a powerful vacuum bomb, instantly destroying the gymnasium like a huge bunker.

The entire Tsinghua University Gymnasium was still amazed at Cheng Mo's brain hole a second ago, but all the voices were swallowed up by Xie Minyun's question this second, and the huge gymnasium fell into a deathly silence, like a desolate star in the vast universe. The lonely ruins on the planet, there is nothing here, only the bright starry sky above the head is flickering silently, this place is so empty that even the sound of the wind cannot be heard, like a cursed castle.

Cheng Mo stood in the center of the stage and looked back at Xie Minyun. He remembered that Xie Minyun was leading him down the steps. At this time, the rain stopped and a colorful rainbow hung in the sky. It seemed that he was holding Xie Minyun's hand before that. Across the long K20, she said a lot of words to him, some were warm, some were inexplicable, Cheng Mo thought to himself that my reflection does not need you to straighten it, and I will not turn into a demon and need your enlightenment.

But this world is worth my attention now, and so are you.

Cheng Mo stared at Xie Minyun's deep and silent pupils like black-eyed galaxies, and he felt that he would not evade this answer. When a girl expressed her longing in such an extremely romantic way, Cheng Mo felt that he could not, nor had the ability to refuse, So he said in front of thousands of people: "I will take you to see the aurora."

Xie Minyun smiled like stars in the night sky.

"From the beginning of the universe to the disappearance of the last black hole, life, as we know it, has only a one-in-a-thousandth chance in a thousand billion."

"So for me, the great wonders of the universe are not stars, not planets, not galaxies."

"Not even physical."

"It was a moment in a long time."

"That moment is now."

"It's been such a long time."

"Life is so short."

"Then Cheng Mo, what are you waiting for?"
