Calculation papers were piled up on the desk like a small building. Since he often needed to retrace the previous calculation process, Zhou Cheng spread the papers on the ground, but he would always mess up the papers when he walked by.
78 Oh no, this made him very angry.
Qingwen asked the auxiliary robot to bring over a dozen small blackboards. She neatly stuck the manuscript paper to the blackboard with magnets. This not only made Zhou Cheng's work smoother, but also made him happy that the calculations on the manuscript paper were
The sequence is also completely consistent with his calculation process.
There were more and more blackboards covered with calculation papers, and eventually they formed a maze on the third floor of the Department of Astrophysics. Bright starlight shone in the hall under the glass dome as promised, and Zhou Cheng walked quickly through his own
In the maze, sometimes I sighed, sometimes I was full of interest.
Finally, he sat back in front of the long desk, and after being stunned for a while, he turned off the holographic projection. Qingwen walked up to Zhou Cheng with a cheerful face, and quickly put away her smile when she saw the loneliness on Zhou Cheng's face, and asked cautiously:

"Professor Zhou, what's wrong with you?"
Zhou Cheng's eyes slowly swept across the rows of blackboards covered with manuscript paper behind Qingwen, and finally his eyes fell deeply on Qingwen.
"The dark matter that gathers galaxies formed by quantum entanglement between mirror universes is far from being a match for the dark energy that drives the expansion of the universe. The universe will accelerate its expansion endlessly, superclusters of galaxies will be broken up, and galaxies will collapse.
The force of gravity will soon fail, the star system will be torn apart, and all celestial bodies will fall apart like falling soot. In the end, even electromagnetic force and strong force will not be able to escape the tearing of dark energy. Atoms, quarks,
Vibrating strings will cease to exist.
All matter will turn into nothingness, whether ordinary matter or antimatter, time will also lose its meaning, and the ending of the universe will be eternal desolation."
Zhou Cheng said this and smiled bitterly:
"That's not right. By then, time and space will no longer exist, and what's left probably won't be called the universe."
There was nothing wrong with Qingwen's face.
"According to the predictions of theoretical physics, the Big Rip will indeed be the end of the universe. But this end will not come until 42 billion years later."
Zhou Cheng wanted to refute, but what was posted on the maze-like blackboard behind Qingwen was his strict derivation process. These days, Zhou Cheng buried himself in calculation papers, lost in the world of atomic physics, and finally proved that incredible
Not accepting the fact.

"The big tear will occur in 400 million years, and the tearing of the earth will occur in the last 59 minutes and 59 seconds. Lord Kelvin is right, all I can do is add a few digits after the decimal point." Zhou
Cheng Yi said with a frustrated face.
"But aren't we still very far away from that time?" Qingwen said puzzledly.
Zhou Cheng frowned and shook his head:
"The destined ending is not sad. What is sad is that the cause of all this turned out to be damned probability. From the micro to the macro, from the moment the beginning of time, what dominates everything is the most meaningless probability!"
Qingwen pursed her lips slightly and carefully organized her words:
"Our universe may have no purpose or grand purpose."
"What about life? What about intelligence? What about the coupling with C-particles after the concentration of neuron cells reaches a threshold? Is all this just coincidence and probability?" Zhou Li increased his volume unconsciously, and his face became rosy.
.
“From the perspective of the process from the emergence of life to evolution, all so-called evolutionary processes are just short-sighted passive changes made under natural selection.
The emergence of civilization is not a deliberate act that is meaningful to the universe, it is just the smaller of all probabilities." Qingwen's voice was very soft, but every word was like thunder.
Zhou Chengqian laughed a few times:
"Hehehe, but we only looked at a corner of the doorstep and concluded the nature of the entire universe. Don't you think this is a bit too hasty? You know, the observable universe may be just a grain of sand in the real universe."
Qingwen looked at Zhou Cheng with sincere and innocent eyes:
"But the universe on the observable scale is isotropic, and the elementary particles also have the same properties. This has been rigorously proven mathematically, and the situation in the entire universe is consistent."
Zhou Cheng's mood calmed down a bit. He picked up a pen and scribbled on the paper at hand:
"Yes, all of this has been rigorously proved mathematically. I almost forgot that all of this is only based on mathematical models, and our experiments have stopped long ago."
Qingwen shook her head slightly:
"Even if the Earth Federation prohibits all forms of high-energy particle collisions, mathematical model derivation is already our only way to understand the universe. After the collision energy level reaches a certain threshold, the black hole produced by the collision will swallow all
As a result of the impact, the road to experimental verification has actually been broken long ago."
Zhou Cheng stopped what he was doing:
"But the mathematical model does not explain why there is a light speed limit barrier and a cosmic monitor mechanism in the universe. And without these two unknown laws, I think we. Oh, no! I might not even have a chance to talk to you here.
."
Qingwen said calmly:
p,
"When the Eternal City was first established, with the help of humanoids, our scientists quickly came up with the current Big Rip Universe model. But they racked their brains and could only prove the speed of light limit and the cosmic monitor mechanism.
exist, but there is no way to know the cause of their occurrence.
With the participation of Rain Man and Humanoid, the verification process finally ended in failure after hundreds of years. We can only think that this is a law given to space and time outside of time and space, and the limit of what we can explore within space and time is only space and time.
itself, and cannot break through and understand beyond time and space.”
Zhou Cheng looked up at the bright starry sky and said lightly:
"So, is this the reason why our civilization gave up exploring the universe and interstellar pioneering?"
Qingwen had a bit of anxiety on her face, and her speaking speed also increased a bit:
"No, it's not giving up. The purpose of exploring the universe is to enable civilization to survive and continue better. It is precisely based on our near-complete understanding of the universe that we choose to stay where we were born and work hard to make it our place.
The most ideal civilized home.
It was your feat 649 years ago that led to the grand prosperity of today's civilization. Although the coexistence of three civilizations is full of coincidences, in this universe that is originally governed by probability, this may be the most ideal way for civilization to exist.
"
Zhou Cheng looked at the starry sky blankly, and after being silent for a long time, he said:
"Who would have thought that such a great starry sky would have such a desolate truth. The emergence of civilization and wisdom is only due to the simplest probability, without purpose or grand plan. Then why do we need to pursue something that has no so-called meaning at all?
What’s the truth?”
Qingwen casually took off a page of paper from the blackboard and put it on the table, and said softly:

"Physicists of the previous era also experienced the same confusion as you. I can understand your mood. Try to reconcile with this universe. At least we can embrace everything that civilization and wisdom have brought to us. Maybe this is the universe.
Want us to do it.”
Zhou Changcheng sighed and stood up.
"I'm too tired and want to be alone."
After saying that, she walked out of the long building of the Department of Astrophysics. Qingwen just stood in front of the glass window blankly, watching Zhou Cheng's figure gradually disappear into the night.
