how to reverse back of mysql_escape_string function in php?
<p>I am storing</p>

<pre><code>[{
    "id": "a34da9b020ec86dc5a7832620082ed5d",
    "type": "img",
    "name": "1458561170282.jpg",
    "mime_type": "image/jpg",
    "path": "http://images.website.com/boxdata/asset22756/images/1458561170282.jpg?r=160321075523",
    "thumb": "http://images.website.com/boxdata/asset22756/images/thumb__1458561170282.jpg?r=160321075523",
    "short_link": "http://website.com/img1084109"
}]
</code></pre>

<p>in a MySQL database using <code>mysql_escape_string</code> function.</p>

<p>When I retrieve the data I have the following output:</p>

<pre><code>[\n  {\n    \"short_link\" : \"http:\\\\/\\\\/website.com\\\\/img1085805\",\n    \"id\" : \"ca96c55e1aa76fbca17ee08cad7e5a15\",\n    \"thumb\" : \"http:\\\\/\\\\/images.website.com\\\\/boxdata\\\\/asset22114\\\\/images\\\\/thumb__chat_files_41.jpg?r=160421015318\",\n    \"type\" : \"img\",\n    \"path\" : \"http:\\\\/\\\\/images.website.com\\\\/boxdata\\\\/asset22114\\\\/images\\\\/chat_files_41.jpg?r=160421015318\",\n    \"name\" : \"chat_files_41.jpg\",\n    \"mime_type\" : \"image\\\\/jpg\"\n  }\n]
</code></pre>

<p>How can I convert my data back in the initial format?</p>
