The Strange Story of Makino Chapter 3 The Ancient Capital in the Clouds Treasure Mirror Descends Demons


It is said that more than 4,000 years ago, the Yellow Emperor forged fifteen ancient mirrors.

These fifteen ancient mirrors are all engraved with the Four Symbols, Eight Trigrams and Twelve Chen Positions.

Moreover, on the back of each ancient mirror, there are four sacred beasts: green dragon, white tiger, red bird, and Xuanwu surrounding it, with a unicorn lying in the middle.

The fifteen ancient mirrors are divided into different sizes according to the horizontal width of the mirror surface.

The largest one has a horizontal diameter of one foot and five inches, and then they are arranged downwards in order.

The smallest horizontal diameter is only one inch long.

It is said that each of these fifteen ancient mirrors has the effect of subduing demons.

Later, they were left in the world and their whereabouts were unknown.

Only a few strange stories have been passed down to this day.

During the Tang Dynasty, a wealthy businessman lived in the city of Chang'an and accidentally obtained an ancient bronze mirror.

He placed this ancient mirror in his house and planned to tidy up his clothes in front of the mirror before going out every day.

It was nothing more than arty. , practice being polite.

That day, as usual, the wealthy businessman was taking a picture in front of the mirror.

Suddenly he heard a crisp sound outside the door.

He was startled.

He turned around and saw a maid slumped outside the door.

Broken tea cups were scattered on the ground.

The wealthy businessman thought it was strange that he fell down for no reason.

He wanted to help the maid up, but as soon as he walked out of the door, the maid reluctantly got up, knelt on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly.

While kowtowing, he said: "Master, the slave in this room is I don’t dare to come in.

If this ancient mirror shines on me, I will die on the spot.”

The wealthy businessman was extremely puzzled by what she said, so he asked: "All the servants in the house came to my house and walked in front of the mirror in peace.

Why are you the only one who died and you didn't look like a member of my house?

What on earth do you think?"

Who is it?"

The maid replied: "This slave has just entered the house less than half a day ago.

He originally lived outside the city, but was abducted by a thief.

After being deceived, she was sold to the house and became a maid."

After hearing this, the rich businessman took out the precious mirror from the house and said to the maid: "Then why are you afraid of this mirror?

Are you a monster?"

The maid saw the rich businessman pointing the ancient mirror at herself. , and immediately took a few steps back, pressing his head tightly to the ground, not daring to look directly into the mirror, and trembling all over.

When the wealthy businessman saw her like this, he became more and more suspicious and immediately stepped up his questioning.

The maid had no choice but to tell the truth: "This slave is actually a thousand-year-old raccoon under the ancient pine outside the city.

If it is shined by this precious mirror, it will return to its original shape and die.

Please put away the precious mirror first, Let me tell you slowly."

The wealthy businessman was surprised and horrified.

He hesitated for a moment and thought: "This demon fox is afraid of the precious mirror in my hand.

Listen to what she says.

After that, I will subdue her."

He secretly held the ancient mirror behind his back. , be prepared to take out this thousand-year-old raccoon if something unexpected happens.

The maid said: "It took me a thousand years of cultivation to achieve human form.

When I first took on human form, I accidentally lost my footing and fell into the river while passing by the river.

Fortunately, I was saved by a farmer.

Not only did they save my life, but they also allowed me to stay in the river.

The family nursed me back to health, provided me with food and clothing, just like my biological parents, and I became my adoptive father and mother.

But not long after, I was abducted by a thief.

Entering the city, the thief not only beat and cursed me, but also sold me into slavery.

The mirror in my hands was made by the Yellow Emperor.

At that time, the Yellow Emperor cast a total of fifteen mirrors to ward off demons.

The ancient tombs left in various places have disappeared.

Judging from the shape of the treasure mirror in the master's hand, it should be the ninth one.

If I were caught by this mirror, I would be knocked back to my original shape and die."

The wealthy businessman felt soft after hearing this, but he still didn't dare to be careless and continued to ask: "Since you are a thousand-year-old raccoon dog, wouldn't it be harmful to others if you change your human form and enter the world?"

The maid replied: "I have transformed into a human form.

I just want to be a good person and not do evil things.

Moreover, my adoptive father and stepmother taught me to know benevolence and righteousness and do good deeds.

I still remember it in my heart.

But when the raccoon dog transformed into a human, it was It is against the law of heaven and living against the will of the gods.

I know that my sin is serious and I must die to atone for it.”

When the wealthy businessman saw what he said, he felt even more pity and said, "Since you have told the truth frankly, I can't embarrass you.

Let you live today and leave quickly."

The maid said: "Thank you so much for not killing me.

Even though I've been heartbroken, I can't repay you for it.

But just now, my servant has been exposed by the treasure mirror, and her life is not long.

Moreover, during the period when she transformed into a human being, she has also become accustomed to the life of the human world."

I don’t want to change back to my original shape and die in the wilderness.

Please put the mirror back into the house.

I just want to drink and dance for the rest of my life, and then I will die without regrets.”

The wealthy businessman hesitated for a moment and said, "I will put the mirror back in the house.

Can't you take this opportunity to escape?"

The maid smiled and said, "Didn't I let you escape before?

Since I have refused, you can escape." , I will not take this opportunity to escape again.

Moreover, the slave girl just said that the treasure mirror has already broken me and I am not going to die soon. ” Seeing that the maid had made up her mind, the wealthy businessman went back to his room, put up the ancient mirror, held a banquet in the hall, and called a few bold friends to accompany him.

During the banquet, the maid had a drink with everyone and became very drunk.

I saw her staggering to the front of the hall, dancing, and singing loudly while dancing.

Everyone present echoed in unison with her tune, and both the guests and the host were mesmerized.

The maid finished dancing, knelt on the ground and bowed to the guest and host three more times, then suddenly transformed into a raccoon body, fell to the ground and died from exhaustion.

It is also said that in the old days, there was a Piling County in the Jiangnan area, and the county magistrate kept an ancestral mirror in his home.

It is said that this ancient mirror has a mirror pattern that is like water waves, and it has the miraculous power of "repelling evil spirits and curing people's diseases."

One night, the county magistrate was sleeping soundly in his room when he suddenly heard a woman crying outside the bedroom.

He quickly put on his clothes, got out of bed and went out for inspection.

When he walked to the hall, he suddenly discovered that the crying sound came from the treasure mirror.

Just as he was surprised, a woman's figure suddenly appeared in the mirror.

This woman was beautiful, wearing a long red dress, with a golden hosta in her hair, and she slowly walked out of the mirror.

When the county magistrate saw the woman coming out of the mirror, he took a few steps back in fright and asked, "Who are you and why did you come out of the mirror?"

The woman said: "You don't have to be afraid.

I am the elf in the mirror, and my name is Chixi.

There is a village outside the county that was killed by monsters, and the whole village, young and old, is in danger.

I am worried about the tragic death of all living beings, so I cry."

After hearing this, the county magistrate was very confused and asked: "As far as I know, the people around the county are all well-fed and well-clothed, and are safe.

Are there any monsters causing trouble?"

The woman said: "This village is not far from the county, fifty miles away.

There is a thousand-year-old jujube tree in the village, which is several feet wide.

There is a strange python living in the tree.

This python has strange poison.

It lives in the tree for a long time.

On the tree All the fruits were corroded by it, and the people in the village were not surprised.

Where the python is, they rush to pick jujubes and eat them.

After eating them, they will be poisoned.

Even if Hua Tu is reincarnated, he will not be cured, but will die.

Now I reveal my true form in front of you, just to let you carry me away.

Save the people from suffering, try to kill the monster python, and eliminate the evildoers."

The county magistrate was shocked when he heard this: "Excuse me, Fairy, what should I do?"

The woman in the mirror said: "You only need to carry the ancient mirror with you, and the strange python will not harm you.

When you see a villager who is poisoned, you only need to shine the mirror on his abdomen, and within a moment, he will be poisoned."

The poison will be resolved.

After you have removed all the poison from the people in the village, hang the ancient mirror on the thousand-year-old jujube tree.

After one night, go and take down the ancient mirror.

Then I will take it down.

Killed by a strange python."

After hearing what the woman said, the county magistrate immediately bowed his head and agreed to the matter.

Seeing that the county magistrate had agreed, the woman turned her head, fell into the bronze mirror and disappeared.

At this time, the county magistrate suddenly woke up and realized that he had just had a dream, but what he saw in the dream was just like his own experience.

He sat on the bed and thought for a long time, and decided to follow what the woman in the dream said and take the ancient mirror with him to visit the village.

The next morning, he got up early, dressed up, called several county officials to accompany him, put on the ancient mirror and set off.

Following the instructions of the woman in the mirror, the county magistrate and his party quickly found the village.

After entering the village, the county magistrate saw that the village was desolate and sparsely populated.

In each household, at least one person was poisoned, and at most the whole family was poisoned.

The villagers were lying on the bed.

Their faces were pale, their eye sockets were sunken inward, and their mouths and noses were filled with black and purple bruises.

They looked like zombies.

The tragic situation in the village shocked the county magistrate.

He quickly took out the ancient mirror and followed the method taught by the woman to resolve the poison in the villagers' bodies one by one.

After a whole day of busy work, the villagers gradually woke up and turned the corner, and everyone's skin returned to its original color, no longer as green as when they first saw it.

The villagers slowly regained their strength and said to the county magistrate: "Just now I saw the master walk into the house and take out a bright moon from his body to shine.

The place where the moonlight shines is like a clear spring caressing the body and cooling the spleen."

That's it.

At night, the poisoned residents of the village were rescued by the county magistrate using ancient mirrors.

At this time, the county magistrate remembered that the woman had once said that after saving the people in the village, he would try to kill the strange python in the big tree.

He asked for the location of the jujube tree and immediately went to hang the ancient mirror on the tree.

Since it was already dark, it was inconvenient for him to return to the city, so he temporarily stayed in the village.

Late at night, he suddenly heard thunder outside, and the county magistrate hurriedly got up and looked out the window.

I saw a storm outside the window, heavy rain pouring down, and lightning struck from the sky, surrounding the jujube tree, rising and falling, bright and dark, as if it was going to penetrate the jujube tree, and the whole village was filled with lightning.

All horrified.

At dawn, everyone braved the courage to go out to watch, and suddenly found a big python lying next to the tree.

This strange python has purple scales all over its body, and when the sun shines on it, it shines brilliantly.

The green triangular python has a pair of white jade-like horns on its head, and the word "王" is clearly visible on the top of its head.

There were countless wounds on the python's body, and the blood flow continued.

If it could not be touched, it would have died long ago.

The county magistrate immediately ordered his men and a group of villagers to drag the giant python out of the village, light a fire and burn it.

The smell spread dozens of miles away.

The county magistrate took down the ancient mirror from the tree again, and suddenly saw that a large hole had been struck in the middle of the jujube tree by lightning.

He ordered the villagers to dig out the tree, and found that the cave came out of the ground, extended to the heart of the tree, and entered the tree.

The ground is quite deep and its bottom is difficult to fathom; there are traces of a python crawling in the cave.

He immediately ordered people to cut down the jujube trees by their roots, and filled the caves with soil and compacted them.

Since then, no pythons have harmed the villagers.

It is said that the ancient mirror in the home of the magistrate of Piling County was one of the fifteen bronze mirrors cast by the Yellow Emperor.

One day there was a heavy storm and the mirror whined in the box.

The magistrate opened the wooden box and looked at it, and saw a The white light shot out and disappeared in mid-air in an instant, leaving only the wooden box empty
