Chapter 80: Sui Hou Zhu
"I'll go!?"
Seeing this sudden situation, Wu Liang's heart tightened, and he hurriedly rushed over to shake Dian Wei.
"Brother Dian Wei? Brother Dian Wei? Wake up! β
But no matter how he shook or shouted, Dian Wei always lay motionless on the ground, his eyes were scattered, like a shell that had been stripped of three souls and seven spirits.
Wu Conscience was secretly shocked.
When he saw these two eyes just now, especially after seeing the way the mica and jade gems were arranged in the eyes, he already understood the reason why these eyes would turn and make people feel like they were being sucked in.
This is an optical illusion called the "Fraser spiral illusion".
This illusion was put forward in 1908 by a man named Fraser, and the principle was elaborated in detail, using this pair of eyes as an example to explain that those regularly arranged mica and gemstones and jade form many small cells with direction, and these small cells are grouped and aggregated, which will make the spiral route obvious, and there are many cells with similar functions in the human visual cortex, and these cells are horizontally connected and affect each other. The simple continuous lines formed on the retina will be tilted due to the directional cells, creating the illusion that the still picture is rotating, so when humans look at such a figure, they will have an unreal sense of vertigo because of the continuous rotation of the picture.
It's complicated to say, but it's much easier to understand if you talk about human language, and to put it bluntly: the eyes themselves don't move, and it's our own eyes that send the wrong message.
These eyes in front of him are undoubtedly proof that "the wisdom of the ancients should not be underestimated".
The theory, which was only put forward in 1908, was presented in this way by our ancestors more than 2,000 years ago, which is amazing.
It is also because he quickly saw through the "secret" of these eyes, Wu Liang naturally does not believe that Dian Wei really fell into the evil and lost his soul, but looking at Dian Wei's current situation, Dian Wei seems to have fallen into some kind of hypnotic secret technique hidden in those eyes.
In the 21st century, there are indeed some pictures drawn using the "Fraser spiral illusion" for psychological hypnosis, and the effect is several times stronger than shaking a pocket watch, after all, the unreal vertigo that pictures bring people is many times stronger than shaking a pocket watch.
But he really didn't expect that these eyes also had a hypnotic effect in them.
"Brother Dian Wei? Feed! β
Wu Liang shook vigorously a few more times, but Dian Wei still didn't come back to his senses.
It seems that this is still a kind of deep hypnosis, but fortunately, Wu Liang knows that it is not difficult to crack hypnosis instantly, as long as there is enough external stimulation.
Like what......
Wu Liang decisively used his thumb nail to clasp Dian Wei's middle and pinched it fiercely.
The human center is an important acupuncture point for awakening the brain and opening the mind, and the most prominent and clear effect in traditional Chinese medicine is to treat the critical.
Whether it is heat stroke, stroke, coma, convulsion, syncope, shock, carbon monoxide poisoning, or even respiratory arrest during general anesthesia, first aid can be performed by stimulating the person.
Even if you sometimes sit for a long time and your legs are numb, you can immediately relieve the situation by pinching people.
Of course, this method can also be used to wake up people who have entered deep hypnosis, and the effect is wonderful.
Really.
"Hissββ!"
With this pinch, Dian Wei's body immediately trembled, and he inhaled a large breath sharply, and his sloppy eyes instantly regained some agility.
"Sima, what did I ...... just now?"
Seeing Wu Liang, Dian Wei's face was full of surprise, and he fully understood what had just happened.
"You've just been dazzled by those eyes, I've pulled you back, and it's okay to stop looking at those eyes now."
Wu Liang said with a smile.
It's not that he is forcibly pretending to be a master in front of Dian Wei, the main thing is that the knowledge of Fraser's spiral illusion and hypnosis is too complicated to say, and I am afraid that Dian Wei, a native, will not be able to understand it for a while, and maybe there will be some unexpected misunderstandings, and it will be even more unclear when the time comes.
"Thank you, Sima, for the rescue."
Dian Wei immediately thanked him, but when he turned around, he saw Bai Jingjing lying on the ground with a blank look in his eyes, and subconsciously asked, "Then ...... this girl?"
"Don't worry about her for now, let's go into the inner room first, and then pull her back when we leave."
Wu Liang smiled and said in a wink.
In this way, there is no such burden to supervise him by the side, in case there is something nice and convenient to hide in the inner room, you can secretly bring one more and two things, why not?
β¦β¦
Bypassing the screen, Wu Liang and Dian Wei entered the inner room together.
The first thing that catches your eye is a stone dragon hanging upside down from the dome!
The stone dragon was about four or five meters long, and it was painted red from head to tail, but amazingly, its head was not a dragon's head, but a hideous-looking human face?
And the most striking thing about this dragon is the pearl with a diameter of more than an inch contained in the mouth of this human face.
At this moment, this pearl is exuding a dark light that is not dazzling, this is the light source that Wu Liang has been looking for to illuminate the entire tomb.
Judging by the time of Liu Qu's death, this pearl has been placed here for at least hundreds of years, and it can still be extinguished, and it is definitely a treasure that is difficult to find in the world.
"This dragon is strange, more like a snake."
Dian Wei carefully protected Wu Liang behind him, and said with a vigilant expression.
After experiencing the "lost soul" just now, anything unusual in the tomb is hidden in his eyes, and he does not dare to be negligent at all.
Wu Liang said with a smile: "The prototype of this stone dragon should be the 'candle dragon', there are clouds in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas": Candle Nine Yin, which is called the candle dragon, with a human face and a snake body, and a straight eye. In the northwest of the sky, there is a country of darkness and no sun, and there is a dragon candle and shines on it. β
"Look at this stone dragon, with a human face, a snake body, red, and an everlasting pearl in its mouth, which happens to be completely consistent with the record in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas"."
"It seems that Liu Qu, the king of Guangchuan, really regarded himself as an immortal king, and he actually created a divine object like the 'candle dragon' to illuminate, which is really arrogant."
As he spoke, Wu Liang's attention had already focused on the Everbright Orb in the mouth of the "Candle Dragon".
In Wu Liang's impression, the only thing in the historical record that is similar to the characteristics of this Changming jewel is the treasure with the name of He's Bi - Suihou Pearl!
In the idiom "Zhu Lian Bi He", Bi is said to be "He's Bi", and Zhu refers to "Sui Hou Zhu".
Legend has it that this is a very magical jewel, "the pearl diameter is inch, pure white, and the night is bright, like the moon, can be candle room." Translated, it can illuminate the whole room at night as bright as day.
It's just that in history, after Qin Shi Huang destroyed the Chu State, he finally obtained Suihou Zhu and He's Bi at the same time.
He Shi Bi was made into a jade seal by Qin Shi Huang, which lasted 1600 years and experienced the hands of more than 100 emperors, and Sui Hou Zhu has completely disappeared since then.
Some people in later generations speculated that Sui Hou Zhu may be buried with Qin Shi Huang and left in the tomb "to replace the anointing candle".
But this is just speculation, not verified.
Suihou Zhu has long become a treasure that only exists in historical records.
