The Fairy Mountains on the Sea are inlaid with a group of gem-like green islands on the vast sea. This is the beautiful archipelago known as the "Fairy Mountains on the Sea" by the world - Miaodao Islands, also known as Long Island. Changdao straddles the Bohai Strait between the Liaodong Peninsula and the Shandong Peninsula, facing the ancient city of Dengzhou (Penglai) across the sea. According to "Historical Records", Emperors of Qin and Han Dynasties traveled tirelessly and stopped to rest their horses on the bank of Danya Mountain in Penglai, looking at the fairy mountains in the sea and begging for immortality. This fairy mountain refers to Changdao. A Tang poem once said: "Suddenly I heard that there is a fairy mountain on the sea, and the mountain is in the void..." Su Dongpo, a great writer in the Song Dynasty, once looked at the Changshan Islands and couldn't help but admired: "It's so true. This is the home of gods!" Mythological novels such as "Journey to the West" and "Flowers in the Mirror" even describe this place as an illusory and otherworldly paradise. Mirage in nature: The car is running on the highway, the white sun rays are burning the road, only the howling of the wind and the roar of the motor are heard, and thinking seems to have stopped. Suddenly, a puddle of water appeared not far ahead, and the car driving ahead also had a clear reflection in the water. But as the car drove, the puddle of water was always in front, and finally slowly disappeared. This is a phenomenon often seen on highways. There is a story that has been circulating for a long time. Once upon a time, there was a camel team hesitantly advancing in the scorching desert. The scorching heat and dry weather have made travelers exhausted, the water in their skin bags has been drunk, and their lips are dry and cracked. How they want to drink a sip of cool water at this time! Suddenly, a lake appeared in the desert far ahead. Palaces and temples towered on both sides of the lake, which brought them great hope and a cool premonition, so they rushed forward quickly. We walked through one dune after another, but the lakes, palaces and monasteries were still in the distance, dimming and brightening, disappearing and appearing. After a while, suddenly the lake, palace, and temple all disappeared without a trace. In calm and windless seas, rivers, lakes, snowfields, deserts or Gobi, phantoms such as tall buildings, city outlines, and trees may occasionally appear in the air or "underground". We call this phenomenon a mirage. This illusion often appears on the sea surface in Penglai, Shandong, my country. In ancient Chinese legends, it is believed that the mirage is a genus of dragons that can breathe out to form towers and city outlines. It is also said that the sea city is the residence of the sea gods. It is located in the "ethereal void", hence its name. Shen Kuo of the Song Dynasty wrote this in "Mengxi Bi Tan": "There are clouds in the sea of ??Dengzhou from time to time, which can clearly be seen as palaces and terraces, figures on the city battlements, chariots and horses, and crowns." To illustrate this phenomenon, let's do a " "Mirage" experiment: In an airless room, place a smooth iron piece 1.5 meters long and 20 centimeters wide across several small pillars made of iron pipes (or wooden sticks instead). Sprinkle a thin layer of sand over the slices to create a desert-like surface. Cut a tree and a camel out of dark paper and stick it on a piece of frosted glass (milky white glass). Place the glass plate on one end of the iron sheet, perpendicular to the iron sheet, so that the tree and camel are exposed above the sand layer. Shine a flashlight upward behind and below the glass plate, and look at the other end of the iron plate as if there is a bright sky behind the trees and camels. Then, use three small briquette stoves and place them under the iron sheets for heating (or use a long charcoal basin, and a long electric stove is ideal for heating if possible). When heating, pay attention to the uniform heating of all parts of the iron sheet, especially the two-thirds area near one end of the frosted glass. In this way, after heating for a certain period of time, put your hand close to the sand surface and feel it is very hot, and then start to look along the thin iron sheet in the direction of the frosted glass. You can find the reflections of trees and camels below the sand, just like the reflections of trees and camels when there is a lake next to them. This phenomenon is a "mirage". On hot summer days, you can sometimes see the reflections of houses and trees on the asphalt road. This is essentially a "mirage" phenomenon. How are mirages formed in nature? Mirage is an abnormal refraction phenomenon, which is the result of refraction of light propagating in the atmosphere with different density in the vertical direction. Often divided into upper, lower and side mirages. Any image or illusion of an object that appears to be reflected from a certain layer of air in the sky is called a mirage. Mirages often appear at sea and in places covered by ice and snow in the north. This is because heat is consumed when the seawater surface evaporates and the seawater temperature rises slowly. In areas covered by ice and snow, the ice and snow surface can reflect most of the sunlight and a large amount of heat is consumed when the ice and snow melt, causing the temperature of the lower layer to change. Very low, so strong temperature inversions are most likely to occur in these places. If there is a strong temperature inversion in the layer near the ground, the air density will decrease rapidly with height. When the light propagates in this air layer where the temperature increases with height and the air density decreases sharply with height, it will bend downward. At the far horizon When light from buildings, etc. is refracted and enters the observer's eyes, a mirage appears. Any image or illusion of an object that appears to be reflected from the ground is called a mirage. Most mirages appear in deserts in the hot season or on the sea in warm ocean currents in winter. On a clear, calm and windless day with few clouds, the sun shines on the dry sandy soil. The specific heat of the sandy soil is small, and the soil temperature rises very quickly. There is almost no water evaporation here, and the heat transfer of soil molecules is extremely slow, and the heat is concentrated on the surface. Therefore, the temperature of the air close to the soil layer also rises very quickly, but the air in the upper layer is still very cool.
When the near-surface layer is a strongly cooling layer, the temperature decreases quickly with height, and the air density increases quickly with height. When light propagates in the air layer where the temperature decreases with height, it will bend upward. The light of the scenery at the distant horizon, After being refracted and directed into the observer's eyes, a mirage appears. When the atmospheric density in the horizontal direction is very different, so that the refractive index of the atmosphere is very different in the horizontal direction, a lateral mirage may occur.

The historical record "Historical Records? Fengchan Book": "Ziwei, Xuan, and Yanzhao sent people into the sea to seek Penglai, Fangzhang, and Yingzhou. These three The sacred mountain is said to be in the Bohai Sea. It is not far away. If trouble comes, the wind will carry it away. If it comes, all the immortals and the medicine of immortality will be there. All the animals and animals will be white, and the gold and silver will be there. Before arriving, the palace looked like clouds; when it arrived, the Three God Mountains were underwater; when the wind came, they could not reach it. ""The Mirage" written by Lin Jingxi, a survivor of the Southern Song Dynasty, has more than 100 words. This is the best prose about mirage. Lu Rong of the Ming Dynasty wrote in "Miscellaneous Notes of Shuyuan": "The theory of mirage air towers was published in the official book of Heaven, and it came from a long way away. Maybe the mirage is a big clam, and Yue Ling said that a pheasant entering the sea is a mirage. Maybe it is transformed into a snake. There are many such things in the sea. However, there are no towers on the beach. However, it is said that it is caused by mirage in Dengzhou Haishi. In the summer, I don't see you again at the end of the year, so I pray at the temple of the God of the Sea. If I think I can pray again tomorrow, it's not a mirage. In the middle building of the office, open the window and look north, you can see a majestic city in the vast vastness. As you look around the islands, you can see that they are not in the same shape, the humble ones resist them, the sharp ones suppress them; Looking closely, there are rows of buildings with overhangs and red chalk and pink and white, all of which are taking shape, such as canopies, flags, pagodas, puppets talking, spring trees and thousands of houses, scattered far and wide, bridges and continents, broken. Continuously contacting each other, appearing and disappearing at different times, there is a painter whose skill is beyond compare. It is said that Penglai Fairy Island is equipped with all kinds of supernatural things. Is this what it is? "It is the best description of Haishi in the extant Penglai Pavilion poetry. A true and decent article. "Guangyang Miscellaneous Notes" by Liu Xianting of the Qing Dynasty: "Dong Qiao of Laiyang said: When I climbed to the sea market in Zhouzhou, I saw more than a hundred warships in one day, with their banners and the sound of golden drums. After a while, they fell into the water. Another cloud In the third year of Chongzhen's reign, Qiao went to Dengzhou, where the magistrate Xiao Yu had a small test, and it was customary for the officials to report to the sea market. Xiao led the boys to see the long mountain outside the north gate. The cave is like a city gate. The water comes out from the inside and boils in two parts. From midnight to noon, there are clouds and people wading into the sea. Looking at the shore from the sea, there are also people watching from the tower. , as seen on the shore. "Pu Songling Mountain City: Huanshan Mountain City "The high wall stretches for six or seven miles, and it is actually a city wall" (Volume 6 of "Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio"), which describes the "mirage in the mountains". Similar to a mirage.
Mirage
Excerpted from "Mengxi Bi Tan" When Shen Kuo ascended to the sea, there were clouds from time to time, such as palaces, terraces, battlements, figures, carriages and horses, and crowns, which were 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 in the daytime and saw many people. The natives also call it Haishi, which is roughly similar to what they see in Dengzhou. Translation: Among the sea in Dengzhou, there are occasional clouds and mist, such as palace rooms, pavilions, battlements, people, cars and horses, roofs of buildings, etc., which can be clearly seen, calling it " "Sea City". Some people say: "(This is) formed by the dragon's breath." (I) doubt that is the case. Ouyang Wenzhong once went to Heshuo as an envoy and passed through 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 The 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 tall wall stretched out for six or seven miles and turned out to be the city wall. There are towers like buildings, halls like halls, and squares like squares. They are all vividly visible, numbering 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. The layer-by-layer index means that 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 an ordinary 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 some early travelers saw people and shops on the mountain, which were no different from the rest of the world, so it was also called "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 lonely pagoda standing on the top of the mountain, reaching high into the sky. (The two of them) you looked at me, I looked at you, they were surprised and confused. , thinking that there is 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. Point and count up one floor at a time. The higher the room is, the smaller the bright spots are. 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 and seem to be absent, making it difficult to see the layers. . 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”.
Edit this paragraph to identify in the desert
Mirage is an optical phenomenon. Hot air rises from a sandy or stony surface, causing light to refract, creating a mirage. Mirages occur in desert areas about 6 miles (9.6 kilometers) from the coastline and can cause objects 1 mile (1.6 kilometers) or more away to appear to be moving. Making land navigation very difficult because natural features are obscured in a mirage environment. A mirage can make it difficult for a person to distinguish distant objects. It can also make the outline of distant vision blurred, making you feel as if you are surrounded by water, and the higher parts of that area look like water. The "island". Mirages also make it very difficult to identify targets, estimate range, detect people, etc. However, if you go to a higher place, about 10 feet (3 meters) above the desert floor (3 and 1/3 meters), you can avoid the hot air close to the surface and overcome the mirage illusion. In short, as long as you slightly adjust the viewing height, the mirage phenomenon will disappear, or its appearance and height will change.

p>In the 1930s, photographer Tang Tingxuan was traveling with a caravan in the desert of Xinjiang when a magical mirage suddenly appeared in the distance. A graceful horse came forward carrying a mysterious girl, and Tang took this precious photo in time. After returning home, Tang could not forget the mysterious girl and was determined to find her. Tang Tingxuan and Mao Dewei took the photos to a Xinjiang restaurant, asked the uncle to identify them, and asked Ainu to be their guide. After arriving in Xinjiang, they encountered a sheep-tagging competition. Before the game, the leader announced that whoever wins will be awarded a white horse and will marry Ainu. Tang Tingxuan competed on a motorcycle and took the sheep from the horse team. While everyone was cheering, Battelle led the Belarusian gangsters to attack. With the help of Tang and Mao, the cavalry fought back bravely, and the bandits failed and fled. Ainu fell in love with Tang Tingxuan, a skilled man, but Tang Tingxuan could not forget the dream girl and rejected her love. Mao Dewei has a secret love for Ainu.
In the process of searching for his dream, Tang Tingxuan encountered bandits. When fighting the masked man of the bandit leader, Tang broke through the veil and saw the true face of the bandit. It turns out that the bandit leader Gasharova is the mysterious girl, and the stunned Tang is captured without hesitation. His friend Mao Dewei rescued Tang, but the bandit leader Gasharova followed closely on a black horse. Tang Tingxuan had to turn back to fight. Due to lack of physical strength, Tang Tingxuan rolled down the mountain and was captured again. Gazalova asked Tang to keep her company, but Tang retorted and the two started fighting again. At this time, the leader led a caravan to raid the bandit's nest. In the battle, Mao died heroically. Tang Tingxuan finally defeated his "Dream Girl" with the help of the caravan.

Mirage Band
The overall style is based on PROGRESSIVE ROCK. The music takes into account the harmony, rhythm and melody and highlights the skill, openness and spontaneity of the work. Sex; Mirage Band is the most expressive fusion avant-garde rock band in the domestic music scene in recent years. Perhaps the elusive term fusion avant-garde does not clearly convey the characteristics of their music. They use powerful metal rhythms to express anger, soothing pop melodies to express longing, and gentle folk songs to express sadness. Its 9-minute long purely instrumental piece is grand and full of epic impulse. It uses complex classical harmonic arrangements and elegant Chinese ethnic elements to bring the listener into a mirage-like illusion. The Mirage Band was founded in 1999 and officially established its current lineup in 2001 - guitarist Gu Kai, drummer Daliang, keyboardist Li Lejun, bassist Wang Yadong, and the lead singer is Jin Wukong from South Korea. Like the American Dream Theater band, the members of the Mirage band persistently pursue the ultimate balance between technology and melody, and adhere to a music-centered creative thinking. The band members are all technical masters in the industry. They have studied classical music since childhood and are deeply nourished by European and American music and oriental folk music. The band was founded 10 years ago. After careful tempering, they finally released their first studio album - "Mirage". The pre- and post-production lasted for 40 days in the recording studio, and every detail was carefully polished, showing persistence and rare respect for music. "Mirage" adds various musical elements that express emotions on the basis of rock music. In the unrestrained changes in the tune structure, the underlying emotional main line is always run through, creating a poetic sense of artistic conception extension. The Mirage Band's continuous efforts to explore wider possibilities in music make it unique in the domestic music scene.

What reason do we need? Hold on to me and don’t let me go. Promise me to be more permanent than eternity. Don’t say that love is a mirage. It’s just fiction. Loving you is the most beautiful wound. My achievements and all my thousands of miles of sand dunes cannot be blown through in the prehistoric universe. The moment at the end is longer than a thousand years. We are destined to meet. Let’s drink a glass of wine with you at this time. Soldiers also need tenderness. Thoughts are like daggers against the throat. What else is needed? Hold on to me, don’t let go. Promise me to be more permanent than eternity. Don’t say that love is a mirage. It’s just fiction. Loving you is the most beautiful wound. My achievements are all mine. Who calls me? Who calls me the distant song? Who calls me the mysterious song? Who is waiting for me? Fireworks in a foreign land. Who calls me another me. Who is holding my unknown hand? The distant song that calls me, who is waiting for my fireworks in a different place
