"I also calculated that since we have stained our hands, we must not give up halfway, and we must make him a good one." - "The Strange Situation Witnessed in Twenty Years"
In life, do you often encounter some mysteries that cannot be solved? Many people want to let these mysteries come to light and make the truth public. I believe that in everyone's childhood memories, we have seen the vase girl who grows in the vase, the vase girl seems to have only one head, but she does not see her body at all, how is this done? Next, let's look at the childhood memory, the "vase girl" growing in the vase, how to deceive children?
In our long history, there are many customs and cultures. In ancient times, there were many people selling art on the streets, but with the progress of the times, people wanted to see some unique performing arts, so magic appeared.
In the Spring Festival Gala, Liu Qian's magic has become a major attraction, but magic does not only appear in modern times. In ancient China, there were already magic tricks, for example, in the "Liaozhai Zhiyi" there are records about trick-changing, and these tricks have also aroused everyone's curiosity.
To this day, there are still tricks in some places. When people see tricks, they think it's very peculiar, but few people want to figure out the principles behind tricks. Among the many tricks, the vase girl is very attractive, and some children who know less or some elderly people will often be deceived by the vase girl when they see it.
According to the description of the vase girl manipulator, the most peculiar thing about this trick is that the bones of the little girls inside have been specially softened, so their bodies can be put in the bottle, but the head is exposed, and the final image shown to everyone is a person in the bottle.
Not only that, the vase girl can even communicate with everyone, so many people want to know the origin of the vase girl. Some people even claim that the vase girl needs to eat some special food, and if people rush to open the bottle, the vase girl's life will end. So in reality, is there a vase girl? In fact, this is just nonsense in the mouths of tricksters.
In this trick, we find that the vase girl will only show her head, and the body seems to be in the bottle, and this bottle is mostly an opaque or dark cabinet, at this time we can not see the vase girl's body, only the face of the vase girl. In childhood, many children have seen this kind of trick, but there was no advanced scientific and technological means at that time, so how did the vase girl achieve interaction with everyone?
At the same time, in many remote areas, it is difficult for people to contact the outside world, coupled with the low level of education, so when they see the vase girl, they will be very excited, and they want to stop and watch, in fact, there is science behind this, and the vase girl is not as strange as the tricksters say.
Tricksters are actually used to simplify physical common sense and bring illusions to everyone. The body of the vase girl, just behind the bottle, in front of the bottle, the performer will put a 90-degree mirror in advance, this mirror can reflect the environment next to the box very well, so it is difficult for people to detect that the back of the vase is prominent, and the highlighted part is the vase girl's body.
In the eyes of many people who do not understand physics, the vase girl is very attractive and very peculiar, so when everyone was a child, this kind of trick was very popular, and the performers often made it mysterious, so that the identity of the vase girl was full of mystery, and many people were unwilling to easily debunk the truth behind it.
With the full popularization of education, people have more and more knowledge, and it is difficult for the vase girl to deceive everyone's eyes. In addition, many places now do not allow performances similar to vase girls and other tricks, after all, this kind of performance is too mysterious and deceitful.
It is not illegal to make profits by means of trickery, but some people have deceived many kind villagers, and this way of making money has harmed everyone's interests. With the full popularization of scientific and technological knowledge now, few people will believe in the performance of the vase girl anymore. This kind of trick is difficult to attract people's attention anymore.

Many times we don't know the truth of the matter, only because we are too deeply involved in it. When we were young, many of us had been deceived by the vase girl, but in the end, we found that most of the original magic was mysterious, and we wanted to use a confusing way to achieve the purpose of profit, so we had to face the magic rationally, look at the magic show with an entertaining eye, don't believe it, and don't be deceived by the vase girl's similar methods again.
