The plane whizzed past and finally landed at Oxford Airport.

Tourists on the plane began to disembark in an orderly manner.

And Li Mu also dragged his luggage down.

There are no direct flights to Oxford in China, so he also transferred from London.

The voyage was quite long, it took more than 10 hours, and of course he took advantage of this time to adjust his biological clock.

刚一落地，一个电话就打了过来。

Andrew Wiles.

"Hey, Li Mu, have you arrived?"

Hearing the other party's words, Li Mu was stunned.

Because...... The other party actually spoke to him in Chinese.

This made him hesitate slightly, and the voice seemed to be ...... Professor Wiles, but does Professor Wiles speak Chinese?

Cautious, he asked, "Huh...... What about Professor Wiles? ”

"Hahaha, I didn't hear it, I am!"

The other end of the line immediately burst out laughing.

It's Professor Wiles!

Li Mu was very surprised: "Professor, you can actually speak Chinese?!" ”

"Pleasantly surprised, huh?" Wiles laughed: "I've been learning Chinese for a long time, even if I keep talking to you in Chinese, there will definitely be no problem." ”

"Now you can test me with whatever you want, and I can understand the meaning."

Li Mu: "...... Hmm, 'I want to live the life I lived', do you translate that sentence? ”

Wiles: "......? ”

There was silence on the other end of the line for a while, and finally Wiles chose to change the subject: "Uh...... Let's not talk, I'm already waiting in the reception hall, come out quickly. ”

Hearing this, Li Mu was stunned again: "You actually came to pick me up?" ”

Professor Wiles had never told him that he was coming to pick him up.

Wilesdang smiled: "That guy at Witten said that if you become his student, he will personally pick you up at the airport, and now of course I have to do it." ”

Hearing Wiles's words, Li Mu was a little moved in his heart.

In any case, Wiles, who learned Chinese and now came to pick him up in person, represents his attitude.

Then he said, "Okay, I'll be right out." ”

After hanging up the phone, Li Mu dragged his luggage and walked out.

When he arrived at the reception hall, he met Professor Wiles, who was tall and thin.

Wiles came alone, he stood there looking at the exit, and when he saw Li Mu coming out, he smiled and waved his hand.

"Li Mu! This way. ”

"Professor Wiles."

Li Mu walked up with a smile.

"Finally again." Wiles smiled and said, "Compared to you a year ago, you seem to be a little more mature." ”

"Perhaps."

Li Mu smiled.

A year ago, he was just emerging in the world's academic circles.

And now he is already famous.

Naturally, there have been some changes.

"Okay, then let's go now, I'm driving here, and I'll introduce you to the city of Oxford by the way."

"Although the history of Britain is not as long as that of China, there are many stories that have been passed down here for a long time compared to other countries." "I'm sure it's going to give you a different experience." ”

"Okay." Li Mu nodded.

There were traces of human activity in the British Isles about 3 or 4 thousand years ago, and of course, it was not until a real civilization was established that it was relatively closer, and it was not until 829 A.D. that England was officially unified, and Britain was not considered complete at that time.

Of course, this country is also older than most countries, such as a certain British rebel.

The two walked out of the airport while chatting, but at this moment, another voice came: "Li Mu! ”

Li Mu was stunned for a moment.

This voice is......

He turned his head to look, and saw a familiar figure trotting toward him.

"Big Zero...... Senpai? ”

The figure finally came to Li Mu's face, but just when the figure was about to stand still, Li Mu's first sentence made her almost stumble.

This person is none other than Yun Rongshang.

今天的她，穿的似乎格外漂亮，里面是带着些许花纹的白色连衣裙，上身则罩着看起来很暖和的长袄，一截小腿从裙摆下露出来，有着明显的光腿神器痕迹。

Of course, on top of this beautiful outfit, there is a puffing expression.

"I haven't seen you in such a long time, and that's the first thing you said?"

Li Mu smiled, waved his hand again and again, "I'm sorry, I'm just subconscious." ”

Then he asked, confused, "How did you get here?" ”

"I'm ......"

This question made Yun Rongshang bow his head slightly, put his hands behind his back, and drew a circle on the ground on his toes.

She came up with all sorts of reasons in her mind to explain why she was here, but in the end she found that they all seemed to be worth three hundred taels of silver.

There was no way, so she had to raise her head and tell the truth: "I'm here to pick you up!" Hey, surprise, right? ”

"Pick me up?" Li Mu was stunned for a moment: "I don't seem to have told you that I arrived today, right?" How do you know? ”

"The mountain people have their own tricks, so you don't need to ask!" Yun Rongshang changed the topic: "It's good to say that the surprise is not a surprise!" ”

She wouldn't tell Li Mu that she had specifically inquired about the news from her aunt Sun Ziping, and then Sun Ziping went to ask Lin Yao again, and Lin Yao naturally knew when Li Mu would leave and when he would arrive.

So, Yun Rongshang came today.

"Surprise, surprise, surprise." Li Mu laughed and said.

Regardless, it is a joy to meet an acquaintance in a foreign country.

After all, meeting old acquaintances in a foreign country is also a great joy in life.

"Li Mu, who is this?"

Beside him, Professor Wiles asked with a smile when he saw the two young men finish talking about theirs.

Li Mu said: "This is a friend I met at my school in China, and she is now studying at Oxford University as a graduate student. ”

"That's right." Wiles smiled: "It turns out that you already have acquaintances here, it seems that you don't need me to introduce you to how to live here, just let this girlfriend of yours ...... Female friend, I'm here to introduce you. ”

Yun Rongsheng's face was slightly red, and at this time she also noticed Wiles next to her, and then asked in surprise, "Are you Sir Andrew Wiles?" ”

"It's me." Wiles smiled and nodded, "You can talk to me in Chinese." ”

He was awarded the KBE, the second highest rank of the British Order of Merit, and any member of the British or Commonwealth Realms who received the highest two orders could add the title of knight to his title.

This is a first-class honor in the whole of the United Kingdom.

And Yun Rongshang was stunned, and at this time he reacted, and what Wiles used just now was actually Chinese.

"Wow! You are amazing, I have rarely seen people here who speak Chinese so fluently. ”

"Really? Haha, that means my studies have not been in vain. Wiles laughed smugly.

At Oxford, it's normal for professors to be multilingual, but anyone who can master Chinese will definitely be praised by others.

So whenever someone praises him for speaking Chinese well, Wiles is proud of it.

But suddenly he remembered what Li Mu had just tested him, so he couldn't help asking: "However, Li Mu tested me just now, what is Chinese called...... Have been over, have been ...... Uh, lived a life, do you know what that means? ”

Yun Rongshang was stunned for a moment, although Wiles didn't say it clearly, she could guess what that sentence was, so she couldn't help but look at Li Mu.

Li Mu spread his hands and showed an innocent expression.

Yun Rongshang suddenly sneered: "You kid is so bad." ”

Then she explained the sentence to Professor Wiles.

After listening to this, Wiles was still at a loss.

In the end, I could only sigh: "It seems that my Chinese is still not in place." ”

……

Leaving the airport, Li Mu and Yun Rongshang both got into the car driven by Wiles.

While chatting along the way, Li Mu also observed the architectural style of the city.

Oxford, one of the oldest cities in the UK, is also very distinctive in its architecture.

Looking at it all the way, Li Mu can be regarded as feeling a kind of customs.

Finally, their car drove all the way into the campus of Oxford University, stopping in front of a building, and only a professor of high status like Wiles could drive into the school.

"Okay, Miss Yun, I'm probably going to borrow your friend for a while, I need to say something about enrollment for him, of course it won't be too long, if you want, you can also come to the office and wait."

"I'm ......" Yun Rongshang thought for a moment, and then nodded: "Then I'll just wait!" ”

"Okay, let's do it together."

Wiles smiled and nodded, and then led the two of them into the old-looking building.

Soon, they were in Wiles' office.

The spacious office is lined with desks and a blackboard that fills the entire wall, with mathematical derivations written here and there.

There were also a few young students in the office.

When the students saw Wiles, they all shouted, "Oh! Andrew, it's back. ”

Wiles nodded at his students, pointed to Li Mu next to him, and said, "Come and see, who I brought back!" ”

The students looked at each other and exclaimed, "Even-bought Ka! Plum! ”

Although these students can become Wiles's students, it shows that their mathematical attainments are very deep, but Li Mu is still their idol.

If Wiles hadn't been here, they would probably have immediately gone up and surrounded Li Mu.

Wiles smiled and introduced Li Mu to his students, and then pulled Li Mu to his desk.

"First of all, I would like to say to you, welcome to the University of Oxford, the first university in the UK and the second in the world."

"And from this day on, you are also a member of Merton College, one of the oldest colleges at the University of Oxford."

"You're welcome to join us."

"I also believe that Merton Academy will become more brilliant because of you."

Subsequently, Wiles handed over a series of enrollment certificates to Li Mu.

"All your admission procedures, the college has already done it for you, here, you only need to conduct academic research with peace of mind, and the college and I will not bring you any restrictions."

"Of course, if you have a problem, you can discuss it with me, but I can't promise you that it will definitely help you, because the topic you are studying may be even more difficult than the one I am studying."

"It's like...... Lee's unfolding. ”

Wiles smiled and asked, "I heard that you're going to CERN in a month to hold a report on the Lee's unfolding ceremony?" ”

Li Mu was surprised: "You also know?" ”

Wiles laughed: "Just kidding, this matter has been spread all over the physics and mathematics circles. ”

"This mathematical theory, comparable to Taylor's expansion, is of interest to any mathematician. ”

"So I'll probably go with you then."

After Li Mu had a phone call with Witten that night, Witten revealed that he had gone to CERN a month later to make a report.

Naturally, the academic community that has been paying attention to this matter also knows, including Wiles.

Neither physicists nor mathematicians are willing to be absent from such heavyweight reports.

CERN has also contacted Li Mu to confirm this matter, and has announced the official time of the event, April 1.

So during this time, a lot of air tickets to Geneva have been sold.

"Okay, that's all I have to say, oh yes, and your dorm."

After informing him a few more about the matter, Wiles took out the key from the drawer and a copy of the house regulations and dormitory information: "Your dormitory is located in Manor Square, and it has been arranged for you—probably not for me to take you there, your friend will show you it." ”

"Okay, that's all I have to say, you can go and get together with your hometown friends now."

Wiles suddenly came up again and said to Li Mu with a smile: "This is a very beautiful girl. ”

Li Mu couldn't cry or laugh, and then took over this series of materials, and then thanked: "Thank you, professor." ”

Wiles smiled, "You can call me Andrew like everyone else in the future, I prefer a teacher-student relationship like a friend." ”

Only then did Li Mu understand why after they entered the office just now, the other students directly called Wiles's name.

"Okay, Professor...... Oh, Andrew. ”

Wiles smiled and waved his hand, "Okay, go ahead." ”

……

"So you joined Morton Academy!"

After leaving Wiles's office, Yun Rongshang said in surprise.

"What happened to Merton Academy?"

"Merton College is one of the best of the 38 colleges at Oxford, and it's rich, and it's full of bigwigs, like your teacher, Andrew Wiles."

“只不过，墨顿学院又是一个十分排外的学院，他们一般只接纳本土的学生，几乎不怎么接受其他国家，甚至不是出生于本土的学生。 ”

“真不愧是你！” Yun Rongshang said with emotion.

The colleges of the University of Oxford are not divided by majors, each college is a small university, and learning is all about learning from a tutor.

So this makes these colleges very individual, like the xenophobia of Merton College, even if it is the personality of this college.

It's just that now it seems that no matter how xenophobic it is, there will be times when it will be really fragrant.

Yun Rongshang even thought, the only one in the world who would reject Li Mu was probably the only girls' school?

"And your admission procedures have actually been completed for you, like when I first entered the school, I ran for a long time in order to go through these procedures."

Yun Rongshang felt very envious, "There is also a dormitory, is your dormitory fee free?" ”

"Like." Li Mu said.

Anyway, after he came to Oxford University, he didn't pay at all.

甚至还赚了不少……

Yun Rongshang was even more envious: "The annual accommodation fee in the Oxford dormitory is 5,000 pounds!" I really miss the dormitory fee of 1200 for our university! ”

"Is it so expensive?" Li Mu's face was surprised.

"Of course." Yun Rongshang nodded again and again: "Not to mention the tuition fee, I'll tell you about it......"

Next, Yun Rongshang told Li Mu all the way about all kinds of things she only knew after she came here, and of course, she also took Li Mu to get acquainted with the campus.

In it, Li Mu saw the table where Tolkien often sat when he wrote "The Lord of the Rings", as well as the very characteristic cafeteria in "Harry Potter".

Of course, he also experienced the food here - it can only be said that the food desert is worthy of the food desert.

This made him deeply worried about his diet in the future.

就这样，在云容裳的介绍下，他算是初步了解了这里。

"Alright, it's getting late, let's go back to the dormitory early."

Looking at the falling night, the two were finally about to say goodbye.

"Okay, it's time to go back to the dormitory, just find the senior sister for something."

"How can we say that we are at the same level now?"

"I came before you, then it's still your senior sister."

"Big Zero ......"

Before Yun Rongsheng's eyes gradually narrowed, Li Mu quickly changed his words: "Okay, okay, listen to you." ”

Yun Rongshang smiled at this time.

"Don't say it, bye-bye."

"Bye-bye."

With a wave of their hand, they said no more.

Li Mu returned to his dormitory.

The dormitories are single rooms and are very spacious.

Looking out of the window, it's a field of flowers and a great view.

But now it's dark, and I can't see anything.

李牧长出了一口气，接下来又要回归研究之中了。

The next step was to prepare for a trip to CERN in a month's time......

The corners of Li Mu's mouth curled slightly.

I hope that the physics community will be able to accept the impact of the new fundamental forces as soon as possible.

He had already determined that the unknown thing was the new fundamental force!
