Mirage

Shen Kuo

In the sea of ??Dengzhou, there are clouds from time to time, such as palaces, terraces, battlements, figures, carriages and horses, and crowns, which are clearly visible. It is called the sea market. Or it may be said: "It was caused by the mirage's energy." This is doubtful. Ouyang Wenzhong once sent an envoy to Heshuo and passed through Gaotang County. There were ghosts and gods passing by in the sky at night in the post house. The sounds of carriages, horses, people and animals could be distinguished one by one. The description was very detailed, but there is no record. When I asked the elders here, they said: Twenty years ago, I passed through the county during the day and saw many people. The natives also call it Haishi, which is roughly similar to what you see in Dengzhou.

Translation

On the sea in Dengzhou, there will sometimes be cloudy air, such as palaces and bedrooms, pavilions, battlements, people, cars and horses, and roofs of buildings. are) clearly visible, it (this sight) is called "Sea City". Some people say: "(This is) formed by the breath of a dragon." (I) doubt that is the case. Ouyang Wenzhong once went to Heshuo as an envoy and passed by Gaotang County. In the post house, he heard ghosts and gods passing by from the sky at night, and he could distinguish the sounds of carriages, horses, people and animals. He said it in great detail, so I won’t excerpt it in detail here. I asked a local old man and he said: "I passed through this county during the day twenty years ago, and I could clearly see people and things." The locals also called this (such a scene) "Sea City." It is roughly the same as what was seen in Dengzhou.

Mountain City

Pu Songling

Mountain City in Huanshan Mountain is one of the eight scenic spots in the city, but it has not been seen for several years. Sun Gongzi Yunian and his companions were drinking upstairs. Suddenly they saw a solitary tower rising from the top of the mountain, with Qingming high up on it. Nowhere, I saw dozens of palaces, green tiles and flying rafts, and I began to realize that it was a mountain city. Not long after, the high wall stretched for six or seven miles, and it turned out to be the city wall. There are towers like buildings, halls like halls, and squares like squares. They can be clearly seen in the hundreds of millions. Suddenly a strong wind blew up, the dust and air were thick, and the city was just a blur. Now that the wind is calm and the sky is clear, everything is gone except for a dangerous building that rises directly to the sky. The building has five frames, and the windows are all open; there are five bright spots in one row, which are the sky outside the building.

Layer-by-layer index, the higher the building, the less bright it becomes. Count to eight layers and cut them like star points. And above it, it is dim and misty, and its levels cannot be calculated. On the upper floor, people were coming and going, leaning or standing. As time passes, the building becomes lower and lower, and its top is visible; gradually it becomes like a regular building; then it becomes like a high house; suddenly it becomes like a fist or a bean, and then it is invisible.

I also heard that early travelers saw that the mountain was crowded with people and shops, which was no different from the rest of the world, so it was also called the "ghost market".

Translation

The "Mountain City" in Huanshan Mountain is one of the eight scenic spots in Zichuan County, but it often does not appear once for several years. (One day) Mr. Sun Yunian was drinking upstairs with his friends from the same industry. Suddenly, he saw a lone pagoda standing on the top of the mountain, reaching high into the sky. (Everyone) You looked at me, I looked at you, and you were surprised and confused. I thought there was no Buddhist temple nearby. Not long after, I saw dozens of palaces with green tiles and high ridges, and then I realized that it was a "mountain market". Not long after, (there appeared again) a high city wall, (top of which was) a short wall with a concave and convex shape, stretching for six or seven miles, and it turned out to be a city. There are buildings in the city that look like pavilions, halls, and neighborhoods. They are all clearly presented in front of you, and you can't even count them. Suddenly a strong wind blew, blowing up huge amounts of dust, making the whole city blurry. After a while, the wind stopped, the sky became clear, and the previous scene all disappeared, leaving only a high-rise building, directly touching the sky and the Milky Way, with five rooms (on each floor), all the windows were open, and five bright places. , that is the sky outside the building.

Count up one floor at a time. The higher the room, the smaller the bright spots. When you count to the eighth floor, the bright spots are only as small as stars. The higher you go, the bright spots become dim, as if they are not there. , can’t see its level clearly. People on the (lower floor) upstairs were coming and going, each doing their own thing, some leaning on the (railing), some standing, with different postures.

After a while, the building gradually became lower and the roof could be seen. Gradually, it became like an ordinary building again. Gradually, it turned into a tall bungalow. Suddenly it shrank to the size of a fist. ( Then it shrunk to the size of a bean, and finally disappeared completely. I also heard that people who got up early and rushed on their way saw homes, markets and shops on the mountains, which were no different from the situation in the world, so people called it " Ghost market”.

Explanation Mirage: Haha, the legendary mirage can exhale into the shape of a tower. It is actually a natural phenomenon caused by the refraction of light in the atmosphere.

A metaphor for things that are illusory and do not actually exist.

There is currently no absolute conclusion in the scientific community about the cause of mirage. The current mainstream view in the scientific community is that mirage is a phenomenon of light refraction. But there are also different voices in academia. Many scientists believe that some mirage phenomena involve space and time, and even include multidimensional or time refraction phenomena.

Regardless of which theory it is, it is certain that mirage is a natural phenomenon.
