The Time - Traveling Magic Mirror

Story Summary

A wonderful story of time - traveling adventure. It stimulates thinking about time.

In a peaceful small town in France, there lived a little girl full of curiosity. Her name was Lucy. In Lucy's room, there was an old mirror with an exquisitely carved frame. The patterns on it seemed to have been passed down from the ancient French court. One day, when the first ray of morning sunlight shone into the room, Lucy, as usual, stood in front of the mirror to comb her hair. Suddenly, a strange light glowed on the mirror, and within the light, there seemed to be a vortex. Lucy's eyes widened in surprise. Before she could react, she was sucked into the mirror by that light.

Lucy in the time tunnel

Lucy found herself in a colorful time tunnel, surrounded by flashing light bands, like countless colorful rivers flowing in the air. She felt as if she was shuttling through the long river of time, both excited and a little scared. Lucy reached out her hand, trying to touch those light bands. Where her fingers passed, the light bands rippled in circles. She began to wonder where she would be taken, to the past or the future? Just as she was lost in wild thoughts, a bright gate appeared at the end of the time tunnel.

Lucy arrives in medieval France

Lucy passed through that gate and found herself in medieval France. The streets here were paved with ancient stones. On both sides of the streets were low - lying stone houses with pointed roofs, and wisps of smoke curled up from the chimneys. People were dressed in medieval costumes. Men wore tight - fitting tops and loose pants, and women wore long skirts and headscarves. There were carriages coming and going on the streets, and the clatter of horse hooves could be heard. Lucy ran around excitedly on the streets, looking at those novel things. She saw a little girl selling flowers. Her basket was full of colorful flowers, and the fragrance of the flowers filled the air. Lucy wanted to say hello to her, but she found that she was like an invisible person. People here seemed unable to see her.

Lucy is in the French Revolution period

Suddenly, the surrounding scenery began to change again, and Lucy arrived at the time of the French Revolution. There were people everywhere on the streets. People held high their flags and shouted passionate slogans. Lucy saw some people giving speeches. Their eyes were full of firmness and enthusiasm. The street was filled with a tense atmosphere, but at the same time, it was also full of the desire for freedom and equality. Although Lucy was a little afraid of this passionate atmosphere, she was also inspired by people's courage. She shuttled among the crowd, feeling the enthusiasm of that era.

Lucy arrives in future France

Immediately after that, Lucy was taken to future France. The scene here amazed her greatly. Skyscrapers towered into the sky, and the surfaces of the buildings flashed with all kinds of wonderful lights. In the sky, flying cars shuttled orderly, like groups of glowing birds. The streets were clean and tidy, and robots were busy working. Lucy saw people wearing light - weight clothes with various twinkling small lights on them. Everything here was full of a sense of technology, and Lucy was full of longing for the future world.

Lucy returns to her room

After so many wonderful journeys, the mirror glowed again, and Lucy was sucked into the time tunnel once more. Soon, she returned to her own room. Standing in the familiar room and looking at the still ordinary - looking mirror, Lucy was full of emotion. She realized that time was so magical that it could change the world dramatically. This adventure through time and space made her think more deeply about time and also made her cherish her present life more.
