World Tibet Bureau

Chapter 348
I turned my head and told Bald Zhu to stay with the lunatic in the room.

He dared not run.

This old jerk must understand in his heart that since I can take all his affairs on his shoulders, I can also put them on him again.

He can't even run.

The martial strength of the people in Caimen is not very good, and the powerful method is illusion, but Zhu can do it at a critical moment.

After they entered the room.

Feng Wanlin Xiumei frowned, and said to me: "Su Chen, I think that mirror seems a little weird."

Before, I only glanced roughly at the bronze mirror of the Western Han Dynasty. Later, I went through it on the mountain and was sure that it was a genuine bronze mirror of the Western Han Dynasty, but I never looked at it carefully.

I asked, "Why is it so weird?"

Feng Wanlin replied: "I looked at the moonlight on the mountain before, and it seemed to be able to illuminate ghosts."

Demon mirror? !

Xiaozhu and I were very curious when we heard this.

The three entered the room.

For the first time, I took a closer look at this bronze mirror of the Western Han Dynasty called Suomingmen.

I said it before.

In a feudal society, the major events of the country were sacrificed and sacrificed.

Bronze tripods were honored in Xia, Shang and Zhou ceremonies, which gave birth to a splendid bronze culture symbolizing royal power and divine power.However, since the Warring States period, due to the wars and crusades of the princes, the traditional rituals and music have gradually declined, and the bronze tripod has gradually withdrawn from the stage.

Since then, the bronze mirror has become the protagonist of the bronze world after the Warring States Period.

The things left over from the Qin and Han Dynasties, the two major artifacts of jade and copper, have always been treasures pursued by the antique world.

The status of the bronze mirror is even more unique.

The main reason is that bronze mirrors generally have inscriptions (the ancient jades rarely have inscriptions).

There is a very clear inheritance with inscriptions.

Inheritance is the core value of an antique.

The back of this Western Han bronze mirror is engraved with a beautiful glass dragon pattern, and the outer edge is covered with a circle of copper buckles like a small sun. The middle buckle is crescent-shaped, and there are a few abstract simple strokes of curved copper ridges on the part of the arched moon. Lines, engraved with four clearly visible inscriptions: "Xuan Gang Wu Yu".

As the saying goes, Xuan Yin is just like Yang, and the ancients always liked to use Yin and Yang to replace the heaven, earth and time.

The meaning of the words Xuan Gang Wu Jiu is translated into a very fashionable sentence now, the years are quiet and good.

I borrowed a bright flashlight from the hotel attendant and turned off the lights in the house.

Turn on the flashlight.

Shine on the mirror.

A very unexpected thing happened.

The flashlight shines on the mirror, and the mirror reflects the light to the wall, forming a group of copper mirror refraction spots.

It is consistent with how we usually use a mirror to refract the sun's rays.

The key question is.

The bronze mirror refracted in the light spots on the wall, and there was a blurry figure!

Seeing this, Feng Wanlin and Xiaozhu were startled, they took two steps back, and fixed their eyes on the figure on the wall.

Can it really show ghosts? !
Think carefully.

This is absolutely impossible!
I looked in the mirror.

The mirror surface is smooth and flat, and can clearly illuminate people and objects, but the shadow is not reflected inside.

Where did this figure come from?
I checked the surroundings carefully again, and checked the mirror for human-shaped dirt.

No problems were found.

He raised his hand and turned the bronze mirror.

Suddenly found.

The figure in the light spot on the wall is actually rotating around a crescent moon, and there is a circle of small suns around it, which is also constantly rotating.

It looks like a person is chasing the sun and the moon, soaring in the fairy palace.

A beautiful scene!
The two of them were dumbfounded.

When I saw Crescent Moon and Little Sun, my heart was moved, and I quickly turned over the back of the bronze mirror to look at it.

Take a look.

It dawned on me!

This is not a ghost image, but a magical scene revealed by the engraved bronze patterns on the back of the bronze mirror!
At first I didn't pay attention to the abstract curved copper ridge lines on the back of the bronze mirror, but now it seems that the combination of curved lines looks a bit like a villain!

The little man, the sun-shaped copper buckle, and the crescent moon button just form an extremely magical scene of ascension.I turned off the flashlight, turned on the light, and quickly waved to them.

The two of them walked over with a look of surprise and a little fear.

I smiled and pointed to the sun-moon human-shaped pattern on the back, and asked, "Look at the pattern on the back of this bronze mirror, is it very similar to the light spots and shadows just now?"

They watched for a while, looking at each other.

Feng Wanlin said: "It's really the same! It's not right... The back of the bronze mirror cannot be seen through, and the mirror surface can reflect light. This is the simplest principle of refraction imaging! But why can this bronze mirror see through the lines on the back, reflecting light to What about the wall?"

I haven't answered yet.

But Xiaozhu was shocked and said: "Western Han Magic Mirror?!"

This time it was my turn to be surprised.

Although bronze mirrors belong to bronze wares, mirrors are actually miscellaneous.

Xiao Zhu could tell, it seemed that he had learned a lot from Hu Sansiao.

This girl was very embarrassed by me, and asked weakly: "Brother, did I say something wrong?"

I replied, "That's right."

This is an artifact forged by the wisdom of the ancients against the sky!
During the Western Han Dynasty, a magical bronze mirror was built that completely violated the principles of physics. It can be lensed by light, and the pattern on the back can be refracted on the wall and cloth. This kind of mirror is called the Magic Mirror of the Western Han Dynasty.

Shen Kuo, a famous scientist in the Song Dynasty, described the magic mirror of the Western Han Dynasty in "Mengxi Bi Tan": "The world has a light-transmitting mirror to learn from the sun."

However, this heaven-defying technology had been completely lost by the Song Dynasty.

What a pity.

How the magic mirror of the Western Han Dynasty can transmit light and form an image has become an eternal mystery.

For thousands of years, countless experts and scholars at home and abroad have tried to uncover the mystery of the light transmission on the back of the bronze mirror, but all failed.

So far, no one has been able to replicate this bronze mirror.

The existing bronze mirror of the Western Han Dynasty "Light of Seeing the Sun" in the Museum of Magic City belongs to the magic mirror and is known as a rare treasure in the world.

It wasn't until the 80s that the mystery of the image on the back of the magic mirror was completely revealed. The general principle is that the thickness of the bronze mirror is different due to grinding, resulting in the phenomenon of light on the curved surface.

I won't go into details here.

But no doubt.

The value of this magic mirror of the Western Han Dynasty, which is the mirror image of people ascending day by day, is far more than the figure that Hall Master Wen said!
I am delighted.

Today's harvest is indeed too great.

Not only completed the life and death contract, but also obtained a rare magic mirror of the Western Han Dynasty.

I couldn't figure it out before.

Why did the co-pilot of Suo Mingmen put such an expensive bronze mirror in the coffin after his death?

Now I have a guess.

The shot of mirror ascension is very similar to the scene of people ascending to heaven after death.

It is estimated that Suo Mingmen's deputy helmsman had a lot of blood and debts during his lifetime, and he was also extremely superstitious, otherwise he would not have asked someone to sing a funeral opera after his death. Putting this mirror in the coffin may think that it can help him ascend after death.

I explained the situation to them.

After hearing this, Feng Wanlin was inexplicably surprised: "So it is!"

This is a treasure.

I asked Xiaozhu to keep it safe first.

Everyone rested for a while.

Bald Zhu came over and called me, saying that the lunatic had woken up.

I went to the room of the lunatic.

Feng Wanlin and Xiao Zhu had already waited inside in advance.

I didn't enter the room, so I smoked a cigarette at the door to suppress my inner emotions.

Since then.

I went into the room, sat down, and asked, "Answer ready?"

The lunatic replied, "Just ask."

I described the characteristics of the old man Hua.

never thought.

I haven't finished all the words, the lunatic's expression suddenly changed, and he asked: "You mean Hua Laoling?!"
