The portrait of the ancient wanted warrant is so rough, but it can catch begging, look at the first sentence, and suddenly realize
There is an idiom in China called "according to Tu Suo Ji". It is said that Bo Le's son found a really good horse from this painting. He found a toad and was glad he had found a thousand-mile horse. Later, it became a famous joke. Laugh at those who follow the rules.
However, if viewed from another angle, the story reflects the fact that ancient painting did not pay attention to the image of realism, but only to the artistic conception. We can't even find horses, let alone humans. However, sometimes people have to rely on portraits to find people, that is, when fugitives are arrested with a warrant, they have to do so, and often succeed in catching fugitives. Why? In the eyes of modern people, the portrait of the fugitive on the ancient wanted warrant is too rough to be restored like the photo. Even a student who has been learning sketching for a few days can be more vivid. How exactly did the ancients determine the identity of a fugitive based on this wanted warrant? The reasons here are complex. Arrest warrants are only a major form, not the most fundamental way: First, due to the low social mobility in ancient times, people's living circles are very large, usually around so many acres of land in the family, the radius of life is two or three villages, and occasionally go to county towns. People in small counties and towns know each other. If strangers come to this border, they will immediately recognize their identity, which is difficult to hide.
Second, ancient tourism required something called a "road guide," which was a government-issued proof of identity. The first to propose this provision was Shang Martin, who presided over the reform of Shang Martingale. He fled in despair, but because of this document, he could not successfully stay in the hotel or escape the country. The Qin Dynasty, eventually cracked and died.
Third, the image of the arrest warrant itself, although it is indeed rough and cannot be restored with my image, the main symbols of the prisoner will be reflected in it, such as bald head, big face, triangular eyes, garlic nose, lion's mouth, whispers, etc., so people actually see it. The judgement of the fugitive is not to look at the image on the portrait, but at all these characteristics.
Finally, the text on the arrest warrant not only indicates the origin, name, crime, etc. of the criminal, but also makes it difficult for the criminal to escape when he sees the first sentence, because the first sentence is often "If there is a clue, the reward is silver and two; if the prisoner successfully produces, the reward is one thousand and two", the so-called reward. There must be warriors in order to effectively mobilize the enthusiasm of the masses of the people and plunge prisoners into crises in all directions. What do you think of this?
Ancient wanted warrant portraits are so crude, why can a fugitive be caught? Look at the first sentence, it's hard to run!
