I pmed you the link. The novel is completely different from the adaptation. It also has much more lengthy information. Also, in the novel it stated that Ye Qingmei first popped out of the 'Temple' as the appearance of a 4-5 years old kid. So I am wondering, how could a 4-5 years old kid possibly....be all that? Unless using my wild imagination, I would say that the Temple raised a bunch of super kids..? Lol. Other theory is that the body of a 4-5 years old kid is acting as an Avatar. An Avatar that can host people that time traveled? If that it so, it explains how Fan Xian traveled to the new born Fan Xian of this world. Currently the Temple is still a mystery to me. I am about 2/3 way done with the novel

Your deduction is very sound without having read the novel. I am currently reading the novel and evidence pointed out that Fan Xian's mother had used some kind of device to travel between worlds. I am calling it worlds because I am not certain if it is the same Earth or just a parallel universe. The "Holy Temple" that Fan Xian's mother popped out of, could possible be a spaceship of some sort. If Ye Qingmei actually from the past with the technology able for her to travel into the future, then that also explains the M28? rifle she brought with her. Although if she had a device that could travel time, why not bring more gun or equipment. I would have to read the rest and find out!

You should definitely read the novel. I am reading it at the moment. Alottttt more information to digest than its drama counterpart. Novel is about 750~ chapters long. Pretty lengthy hahaha.

It has some humor, but since this is a drama, the humor has translated far better because we can see character's facial expression, music, sounds effects, etc. As far as adaptation goes, the only thing that's mostly the same are characters, personalities, and some events. Otherwise, the drama merged some character, plot, and made some events happened ahead of what they are supposed to be. I enjoyed Mao Ni's work, so I do recommend reading the novel. Fair warning, there are lengthy texts, and this is due to novel describing an events, conspiracy, environment/world. The actors/actresses in this drama portrayed the characters very well, very similar to what I would imagine them in the novel.
