After seeing off the last batch of tourists, Li Rongrong closed the scenic area.
After taking inventory of the goods, there were fewer items in the scenic area supermarket again.
As usual, she checked the newly installed surveillance.
After squatting in front of the computer for a long time, Li Rongrong's eyes were dizzy, but she still couldn't figure out who it was.
Just when she was about to give up, a slight noise suddenly came from behind her.
In the quiet night, every sound can be heard clearly.
"who?"
She was like a frightened cat.
He picked up a baseball bat nearby and walked carefully towards the place where the noise came from.
There was no one behind the shelf except for an antique full-length mirror.
...
...
The full-length standing mirror is quite large, about 1.6 meters long.
It has a dark gold-plated edging and a black dragon with golden threads carved on it, which looks lifelike.
It seems as if it will break away from the mirror at the next moment, simple and majestic.
She bought the mirror because she thought it had a simple and majestic beauty, and planned to put it in the scenic area as a decoration.
At this moment, the mirror shook strangely in front of her.
Li Rongrong's hair stood on end instantly and she was held in place.
After a moment's reaction, she quickly picked up a baseball bat beside her.
He poked the mirror with a baseball bat, testing it cautiously.
Unexpectedly, the baseball bat did not make any sound after hitting the mirror.
Straight through the mirror!
Li Rongrong suddenly pulled her hand back and rubbed her eyes in disbelief.
After a while, there was still no movement around.
Not giving up, she picked up the baseball bat and swung it again, then quickly pulled her hand back.
There was no sound of it hitting the ground as expected, and the baseball bat was swallowed up by the mirror.
She swallowed and was now sure.
The new mirror I bought is really amazing!
No, it is not allowed to become a spirit after the founding of the country.
So did she... buy the magic mirror?
"Do you have to give me something first before I can answer?"
In order to verify her thoughts, Li Rongrong stuffed the things on the shelf into the mirror.
The mirror just swallowed the food and showed no other reactions.
She grabbed a few expired rice balls and threw them at the mirror, but they still disappeared on the spot.
This time, a picture appeared in the mirror.
A man dressed in white brocade, with a jade belt around his waist and a handsome face, stood on the Great Wall.
He exuded the air of books, standing there like a beautiful orchid, with the bright moon in his arms.
He looked at the mountains in the distance, his eyes filled with melancholy.
The picture ends here.
Li Rongrong thought she was dazzled, as if she had just watched a costume drama.
This mirror is like a bottomless pit, mysterious and full of curiosity.
Li Rongrong slapped her head. The supermarket just happened to have a batch of food that was about to expire and was about to get rid of it. Was this a pillow for her sleepiness?
Li Rongrong did it right away and threw all the expired rice balls, yogurt, chocolate... in.
But this mirror was like a greedy glutton. No matter what she stuffed into it, it showed no reaction.

Outside the Great Wall, a dark cloud looms over the city.
Dark clouds covered the sky, the night was as dark as ink, and the bright moonlight of the past could not penetrate the thick clouds.
General Meng Tian, who was stationed at the front line, sent crucial information.
The Huns somehow got hold of the food and grass transportation routes and sent people to infiltrate Daqin.
The border has been running out of food and grass for half a month, and the Qin soldiers have been eating only every two days.
All I could eat for every meal was some dripping rice soup.
After receiving the news, Prince Fusu personally led a team of cavalry out of the city and hurried towards the food and fodder troops.
However, the blazing flames in the narrow ancient road indicated that they were a step too late.
The fire had just started.
Through the flames, you can vaguely see the fire.
The Qin soldier, covered in blood, knelt on the ground, his body pierced by swords.
Swords were placed on his body, and under him was a bag of food.
He guarded it tightly, protecting it with his life, and refused to let go.
They were soldiers transporting food and fodder, and they couldn't let the Huns take the food and fodder away, not even in the form of corpses.
But they didn't know that the Huns, seeing that they could not take the food away and fearing that the Qin army would arrive to support them, simply set fire to the food.
Prince Fusu led his men to put out the fire overnight, but they were only able to rescue less than one-third of the food and grass.
This means that the 300,000 Qin soldiers could only eat one meal every two days during these months.
Zhang Han looked at the burned food with a look of regret, "Sir, what can we do? You should have been in Xianyang City, but now you have to starve with us."
"How can I stay in Xianyang City with peace of mind when the Qin soldiers are like this?"
Prince Fusu was heartbroken, his eyes filled with regret for the past: "After arriving at the border, eating and drinking with the soldiers and civilians of my Great Qin, I realized how ignorant I was in the past."
"Young Master!" Zhang Han looked at Young Master Fusu with his heart full of respect.
Prince Fusu was calculating the food supplies in his mind, and was filled with worry. "For now, we can only continue to reduce the food supplies. After another half a year, Bashu will harvest another batch of food."
The Qin Dynasty had always relied on war to support its war, but the Huns were more short of food and fodder than they were.
In addition to transporting food and grass from Shu, the frontiers also had to collect them from the people of Guizhou. However, the northern frontiers had to be garrisoned and the Great Wall built, so the transportation of food and grass was long and time-consuming.
Without this batch of crucial food supplies, I don’t know how many people would die in the next few months.
Although the Qin army was invincible, after years of war, the Qin Dynasty had a shortage of arable land and not much grain in stock.
What’s more, there are 300,000 troops stationed north of the Great Wall.
Together with the workers who built the Great Wall, the total number was nearly 300,000.
With such a large population, the daily consumption of food and fodder is an astronomical figure.
"Sir, don't worry. Even if our Qin soldiers are too hungry to lift their swords, they will surely tear off a piece of the Huns' flesh and blood!" The deputy general at the side also echoed.
"Our old Qin army is a fierce army that unified the six kingdoms!"
"Just the Xiongnu. Our Qin army will never let them trample on the land of our Great Qin!"
"Yes! The Huns will never set foot on Daqin."
"Let's go to the national crisis together, old Qin!"
In an instant, the morale of the Qin army soared.
At this moment, looking at the Qin army advancing forward, Prince Fusu seemed to suddenly understand.
Why was my father Qin Shi Huang so obsessed with the world?
The empire of the Great Qin was conquered bit by bit by the ancestors of the Great Qin.
While they were talking, Zhang Han caught a glimpse of the reflection not far away.
The Huns' ambushing spies were picking up bows and arrows, preparing for a surprise attack.
Shouting: "Young Master, be careful..."
It happened in the blink of an eye.
A stick with one end thick and the other end thin suddenly fell from the sky.
The sneak attacking spy was knocked unconscious directly.
Everyone was stunned and looked on in shock.
The wooden stick rolled in front of Prince Fusu.
Prince Fusu picked up the stick and examined it carefully but could not figure out what it was.
The wooden stick is smooth and has no barbs. I don't know what it is used for.
