Chapter 180 Translucent Bronze Mirror

original.

The reason why this copper mirror can transmit light and form a beam similar to a laser pointer is not because of the external light source.

Nor is it because of the magic of its ability to transmit light and focus.

Instead, the copper itself has been artificially transformed into a light source structure similar to a laser pointer.

Just touch a certain part of the bronze mirror to emit the laser.

No light source is required at all.

Everything is just the monk trying to make things mysterious, adding a sense of mystery and ritual, fitting some ancient legends, and highlighting the magic of Buddhist instruments.

In other words.

This bronze mirror is completely fake.

Yang Chen had actually been mentally prepared for this outcome.

So although I'm a little regretful at this moment, I'm not too disappointed either.

in contrast.

Yang Chen felt that at least now, he had finally found some clues about the bronze mirror.

obviously.

This deliberately modified bronze mirror did not come out of thin air.

It must have been inspired by something.

Or simply a fake.

And this fat-headed and big-eared monk used this bronze mirror to cast spells, and he must have known the allusion - at least, he knew about magical mirrors like translucent bronze mirrors.

"Ten thousand!"

"I want to know all the information about this mirror."

Yang Chen returned the bronze mirror to the monk.

Then said.

"Donor, this bronze mirror is my Buddhist ritual weapon."

Upon hearing this, Yang Chen didn't bother to act with him any more: "Okay, stop pretending, we are all just foxes on the mountain. What the hell are you talking about with me?"

"Twenty thousand!"

Yang Chen directly threw money.

The monk frowned, looking angry, and scolded: "Donor, what do you mean by this? You think I am showing off..."

Not finished.

Yang Chen opened the passenger door, got out of the car and left.

see.

The monk quickly got out of the car and stopped Yang Chen: "Wait a minute, transfer the money first."

Hearing this, Yang Chen shook his head.

"Ten thousand!"

The monk frowned: "Why are there still less and less?"

Yang Chen curled his lips.

Walk away again.

The monk quickly waved his hand and shouted: "Okay, okay, ten thousand is ten thousand."

heard.

Yang Chen stopped.

"Five thousand!"

This time, the monk said nothing more and immediately nodded: "Okay, transfer!"

……

"Do you know about the light-transmitting bronze mirror?"

inside the car.

the monk asked.

Yang Chen nodded, then shook his head.

This kind of mirror, after listening to the systematic annotation, he knew about it, but because of the rush of time, he had not had time to look up the detailed information and historical allusions.

That's why he nodded and shook his head.

see.

The monk smiled.

Nor did he dwell on his contradictions.

Instead, he began to explain.

"The light-transmitting bronze mirror was first discovered in the Western Han Dynasty. It is a special bronze mirror with special effects and was called a magic mirror by people at the time."

"Western Han?"

Upon hearing about this era, Yang Chen frowned.

Comments given by the system.

The matching light-transmitting bronze mirror is clearly a product of the Warring States Period, just like the nine-hole glazed secret titanium bead.

Why did it become the Western Han Dynasty first?

Either the earlier light-transmitting bronze mirror has not been discovered. Either the archaeological information is wrong.

"how?"

"Is there a problem?"

Seeing Yang Chen's confused look, the monk asked.

Yang Chen shook his head and motioned for him to continue.

The monk nodded and continued: "Scientifically speaking, this kind of bronze mirror embodies the principles of optics and mechanics. As long as the light source shines on the mirror surface, it can penetrate the bronze mirror and project the inscriptions and decorations on the back of the mirror onto the wall. above."

“The principle, according to experts’ explanation after research, is that during the casting process of this kind of bronze mirror, the concave and convex patterns on the back of the mirror are different in thickness and shrink during solidification, resulting in casting stress.

"After casting, grinding creates compressive stress."

"Thus forming elastic deformation in physical properties."

"When polished to a certain extent, this elastic deformation acts superimposedly to produce a corresponding curvature between the mirror surface and the mirror back pattern, resulting in this light transmission effect."

Speaking of this, the monk looked mocking.

"That's what the experts say."

"But so far, no one has been able to use the so-called principle technology of experts to reproduce a real light-transmitting bronze mirror."

"Several pieces of light-transmitting bronze mirrors have been unearthed over the years."

"A piece was unearthed from the Han Dynasty Tomb in Dongdongshan, Xuzhou. The inscription on the bronze mirror is: See the light of the sun, the world will be bright, joy is still young, never forget each other for thousands of years, no harm when time comes, it is appropriate for the king."

"There are also two light-transmitting mirrors from the Western Han Dynasty in the collection of the Magic City History Museum."

“The backs of the mirrors are engraved with words and patterns. One side has the inscription “Inner purity makes the world clear”, and the other side has the inscription “Seeing the light of the sun, the world will be bright.” "

"Because the technology of making light-transmitting bronze mirrors has been lost."

"And very few of them survive."

"So the value of this kind of light-transmitting copper mirror is very high."

Having said this, the monk took out his bronze mirror and said, "It is said that this light-transmitting bronze mirror is a magical weapon."

"Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism can all be used."

"The functions are ever-changing and vary from person to person. Anyway, it is very magical."

"As for me, it's naturally fake."

"Technology Products!"

"To hold up the scene."

The monk stopped hiding it and opened the skylight and said openly: "I am not a monk, or I am not a monk in the true sense."

"You can think of me as a wandering warlock."

Hear him finish.

Yang Chen waved his hand.

Whether it's a monk or a charlatan, he doesn't care.

The only thing he cared about was the bronze mirror.

"Then do you know that during the Warring States Period, there was actually this kind of light-transmitting bronze mirror?"

Yang Chen lit a cigarette and asked.

"Warring States Period?"

The monk shook his head: "I'm not an expert in this field. Sorry, I'm not sure, but I have a friend who is obsessed with light-transmitting bronze mirrors."

“There’s also a lot of in-depth research.”

"If you are sincere, I can introduce you to him."

Yang Chen curled his lips.

"Just tell me how much it is."

The monk stretched out two fingers: "Twenty thousand!"

Yang Chen also stretched out two fingers: "Two thousand! If it works, it won't work. If it doesn't work, I will pull it down."

This time the monk's response was swift.

"make a deal!"

"transfer!"

After Yang Chen finished transferring the money, the monk tore off a piece of white paper, wrote down an address, name, and contact number, and handed it to him.

After reading this address and name, Yang Chen couldn't help but laugh.

It turns out this person is none other than someone else.

It is the boss of Zhenbaozhai: Zhang Wenyu.

That's right.

It was the first time Yang Chen went to Tianxin Pavilion to pick up leaks, and he picked up a comic book and sold it to him.

After that, Yang Chen looked for him a few more times.

Added WeChat.

There is also a contact number.

He can be considered an old acquaintance.

Unexpectedly, the friend the monk mentioned was actually him?
