Yan Xiaoyue is a lover of antiques, but because she is poor, she does not have the luxury of being a rich man, and the antique street in Fenghuang City just solves her plight of being shy.

Antique Street sounds very extravagant, but it’s actually just a gathering place for a bunch of swindlers to swindle money and set up stalls. There are constant hawkers at the end of the street, all bragging that the things on the stall can be used as family heirlooms.

"Tongbao in the reign of Emperor Kangxi, I found these ten pieces after traveling all over ten miles and eight villages. Don't miss them when you pass by."

Yan Xiaoyue looked at it, and immediately laughed out loud, what nonsense Tongbao, the order of the words on it was printed wrongly, the real Kangxi Tongbao money face characters were written in regular script from top to bottom, right to left, and this dealer sold , just the opposite.

Leaving the noisy crowd, Yan Xiaoyue caught a glimpse of a silent man in the corner on the other side. There was only an antique mirror in front of the man. When he got closer, Yan Xiaoyue found that this mirror was a little different. After wandering around the street for so long, Yan Xiaoyue can somewhat see some tricks, but if the mirror in front of her is said to be fake, then she can only say that it was too successful, the mirror surface is yellowish brown, a little uneven, it can It can be seen that it is made of brass, and there are some corrosion marks near the edge of the frame, and there is even a crack. It can be seen that it has been a few years old, but some mirrors are still shining.There is a wooden frame on the outer circle of the mirror. The frame is made of high-quality golden nanmu. Even after a long time of polishing, it still has the unique gentle luster of wood. A lifelike magnolia flower is carved on the top of the frame. In addition, there is no extra decoration, and the whole mirror looks very grand.

Yan Xiaoyue found that the man was not in a hurry to sell, but just glanced at Yan Xiaoyue lazily, looking a little tired, she tentatively asked the price.

Seeing that Yan Xiaoyue wanted to buy a mirror, the man's eyes shone with astonishing light, "Two hundred."

Two hundred is not too much, and it can even be regarded as a loss-making business. This mirror costs thousands of dollars for a single frame. After all, new wood does not have the luster of old trees. Anyone who knows the goods can see that this mirror is absolutely conservative. Not only two hundred, not to mention that this is an antique.

Yan Xiaoyue doesn't judge the year just by looking at it from the outside, but her antique radar tells her that this mirror is not simple.

"Can two hundred be less?"

The man hesitated, but agreed anyway.

Seeing the man agreeing so readily, Yan Xiaoyue became suspicious, "What's the matter, brother, did this thing come from a dirty place? Or did it just dig out from the mud?"

Yan Xiaoyue's words made the man a little unhappy, he retorted: "What do you mean digging out of the mud? How can something so new come out of the mud? Let me tell you the truth, this mirror... belongs to my cousin, he He is a psychiatrist, he got sick for some reason a few days ago, he has to move, and asked me to help him dispose of second-hand goods, I heard that this mirror was quite expensive when he bought it, so he was not willing to throw it away, so he sold it to him.”

What the man didn't say was that the mirror really belonged to his cousin, and he was indeed entrusted by his cousin to take care of it. But since the mirror came into the house, strange things always happened at home, and because it belonged to his cousin, it was not easy to throw it away. , I can only take it out and try to see if it can be sold.

Yan Xiaoyue saw that the man's expression didn't seem to be fake, and she was very curious about the mirror in her heart, so she made a decision immediately and bought it home.

Although there are a lot of fakes on Antique Street, they are not without flaws. Two years ago, someone bought a jade pendant here for 500 yuan. After going back for an appraisal, they found that it was genuine. The price has directly increased by dozens times.

This is also the reason why Yan Xiaoyue is so attached to this street.

After returning home, Yan Xiaoyue couldn't wait to search the Internet for information, checked a lot of documents and pictures, and found that there was no ancient mirror with the same style as this mirror. From the Warring States Period to the Song and Yuan Dynasties, most of the mirrors were integrated. One side is engraved with patterned insects, fish, birds and animals, and the other side is polished brightly. The hand-held style began to rise in the Song and Yuan Dynasties, but this kind of wooden frame with a base has never been seen before. Did you miss it?

No, Yan Xiaoyue took the mirror and looked at it again. Just by looking at the mirror surface, it can be seen that this is an exquisite mirror. Polishing mirrors in ancient times is a fine craft, which is very time-consuming, and most people can't afford such a good one. Mirror, but if it is such a good mirror, why is the decoration so simple? It can only show that this mirror has a long history, so long that no inlaid and gold and silver mirrors have been created. Both of these techniques appeared in the Tang Dynasty, that is, It is said that this mirror is at least before Tang.

Yan Xiaoyue looked carefully at the mirror, her fingers touched the back of the mirror with a bumpy feeling, she saw a few small characters on the back with sharp eyes, because the dirt was not clear, she turned on the light, and wiped it carefully with a soft cloth dampened with water , After a while, the handwriting slowly appeared.

It's Xiaozhuan...

This discovery made Yan Xiaoyue very excited, but not long after she got excited, she became worried. The presence of Xiaozhuan does not mean that it is something from the Qin Dynasty. Xiaoyue calmly rubbed the words, put the mirror on her bed casually, and began to look up the meaning of the words. There is still hope in being a human being, what if it comes true.

After an unknown amount of time, the living room door opened.

While looking at the computer, Yan Xiaoyue shouted to the door, "The rice is on the table, warm it up by yourself."

After saying this, there was no movement outside, Yan Xiaoyue said again: "Come back so late, did you drink again?"

Randomly glanced at the time on the computer, it would be twelve o'clock, Yan Xiaoyue was a little unhappy about her husband's late return, "I only go home after this meeting every day, other people marry their wives and go home to live, and you marry The wife comes home for decoration."

Perhaps because he was used to his wife's complaints, the man didn't speak, but walked behind Yan Xiaoyue and stood quietly for a while.

Yan Xiaoyue took this kind of quietness as her default, not only did she not stop talking, but became even more enthusiastic, "Just tell me what you can do. You are not self-motivated at work, and you are still a small employee and socialize all day long. What do you say?" If you can get a higher salary from the entertainment, then that’s fine. Also, your mother called me again today and asked how the child is doing. We have been married for so many years, and she said that she even has a dick I didn't even see it. What do you mean by her? Did I give birth to this child on my own? You came home so late, how could I give birth? Could it be... me. "

Yan Xiaoyue became more and more angry, but when she turned around, there was no one behind her.

A chill instantly crawled into her heart, could it be an illusion?Or a burglar in the house?

Thinking of this, Yan Xiaoyue put down what she was doing, picked up the bench and groped towards the living room, carefully searched the room, but Yan Xiaoyue didn't see anyone, and the door was well locked, it seems that own illusion.

Taking a long breath, Yan Xiaoyue glanced at the time, and her resentment towards her husband became more intense.

If you don't go home this time, it's really hopeless.

Fortunately, I have something to kill time.

Back in front of the computer, the previous query Xiaozhuan also had some clues.

"Luo...Yuanji?"

After Yan Xiaoyue finished reading the name, she felt a slight humming in her ears, and when she came to her senses, she was annoyed at her suspicion, but it seemed to be a personal name, and it was a woman, so move The sound of fingers and keyboard tapping is very clear at night.

In the current recorded history, there is no one named Luo Yuanji, could it be that she is just an ordinary nobleman?Or maybe a nobody at all.

Yan Xiaoyue thought about it for a long time but couldn't figure it out, so she simply dropped the computer and started thinking with the mirror alone. She scratched the scratches on her nails, but found that she couldn’t get them off at all. She rummaged in the drawer for a long time, took out a piece of fine sandpaper, and wanted to try to polish the mirror again, but the particles on the sandpaper were almost gone. , the mirror is still the same.

"what happened?"

Yan Xiaoyue went to the mirror to check carefully, the stain that was repeatedly rubbed just now was intact, she was surprised for a while, at this moment she inadvertently saw her pupils in the mirror, logically speaking, the focus of people's gaze will definitely cause the pupils to shrink , but her own pupils in the mirror were abnormally large, remembering the ghost story about not to look in the mirror in the middle of the night that she heard when she was a child, Yan Xiaoyue was so frightened that she shook her hands and dropped the mirror to the ground.

This is what the old people in my hometown said. Midnight is the time when yin and yang alternate, and it is also the time when the yin is the heaviest in the day. They think that the mirror is a passage, a passage to another world, and that world is far less beautiful than this world. Evil, this is why sometimes when people look in the mirror, they often feel that the self in the mirror is very strange and evil, because the "you" in that world wants to go through the mirror at any time and come to this world to replace you.

Yan Xiaoyue shook her head, since when did she start to believe in these messy things, why is it so cloudy at midnight, and some people say that evening is too cloudy? Thinking of this, Yan Xiaoyue picked up the mirror and was just about to look at it. When checking whether the mirror was broken, there was a face on the mirror, to be precise, there was a human face in the mirror, as if that face was about to emerge from the mirror, Yan Xiaoyue yelled , there was no sound in the room.

Click.

It was the sound of the door opening.

"Wife, I'm back."

"Wife?? Are you asleep?"

"Hey, why is there a mirror on the ground, hey, I'm shopping around again."
