When a group of people fall into an inexplicably depressing environment, they need to communicate with others, tell others about their confusion, and then find the answers they want from the people around them.
But when no one has the answer, when no one around a person can solve her problem.
The communication between them is no longer about solving each other's troubles, but another situation. They will let panic and fear gradually spread in the communication, and continue to spread and spread in a superimposed situation, just like a kind of
Like a plague, it has spread quietly to all directions unknowingly.
Every communication with each other will only amplify this panic unknowingly. In the process of communication, a person's panic will become two, three or even several times more panic. The more they communicate, the more panic they have.
The more I feel like things are out of control.
Danger comes from the unknown. Without a complete understanding of what is going on, any speculation will only increase the sense of fear.
They seek comfort, but what they find in return is even more desperate fear.
The villagers have no time to think about where this incident started. The houses where this incident first happened have been speculated many times, and many people even ran to those houses.
family to find out what caused all this to happen.
Those who originally lived there had no intention of continuing to live in their own homes. They left their homes and went to other places, either staying at relatives' homes or running to the homes of those in the village who later changed.
Borrow.
They don't know what happened, but they have regarded the place and home where they have lived for a long time as the source of disaster.
Everyone has a desire to avoid disaster, but in this unknown situation, thinking begins to become disordered, and many things cannot be analyzed rationally. When there is no way to explain such things, it becomes even more difficult.
in this way.
Not only the ordinary people in the village discovered this situation, but also the Lin family, who had always been mysterious in the village, also seemed to have something wrong.
They gathered together quietly, with cold faces, and the atmosphere was extremely depressing. When Lin Juan returned to Lin's house, she saw such a situation. She wanted to ask, but when she walked into the room, she saw
Everyone was sitting there without saying anything for a while.
Then they were driven away directly. It seemed that they were deliberately hiding something from Lin Juan.
Lin Juan did not get any answer to her inquiry and could only return home. Xu Guodong was open-minded and just regarded this kind of thing as a sudden change caused by the weather change.
The animals are frightened, the insects and ants flee,
The sky became oppressive, and the thick black clouds looked like a huge rock. This made him think that an unprecedented heavy rain was about to fall in the village, which might not happen in decades, or might not happen in hundreds of years.
However, he has analyzed the geographical environment of Linjia Village. In such an environment, although the rocks are not particularly good, there is no need to worry too much. Even if a mudslide occurs, it will only destroy some of the land around the village.
The farmland was destroyed, and at most they lost some food, but they were still safe because Linjia Village's location was relatively prominent.
Of course, he had also thought that Linjia Village might also be affected by this geographical change, but it was surrounded by open fields and rolling mountain peaks on the other side. No matter where it was at this time, it was not considered a
It is absolutely safe.
In comparison, Linjiacun is safer.
Although there were some cars in that era, they were all cars with not particularly good performance.
And it is rare to see one in a village. At this time, most of them still use cattle and horses as their main means of transportation. However, cattle and horses will be frightened. Under such circumstances, if they leave the village with an cattle cart or horse carriage, even if they are
It's already a little late to move.
If the cow or horse went crazy halfway and got lost, the family would have to carry the things back themselves.
This is why the villagers did not escape from here. It's not that they don't want to run, but they can't run. Who knows what will happen on the way?
Time passed slowly, and only Lin Juan knew about the changes in the Lin family. The others just thought that the Lin family was gathering together to discuss something. As for what they were discussing, they had no way of knowing.
The villagers no longer had the intention to pay attention to what was happening in other families. They gathered in groups of three or two at the village chief's house, hoping to get some comfort from the village chief.
The village chief did his duty well and did say a lot of comforting words to everyone. He also gave everyone a brief explanation of his guess in a way that everyone could understand, which was what weather changes caused the situation.
Don't run around in the house, go to bed early in the morning and don't go out.
At the same time, because of the weather, everyone was asked to quickly strengthen their houses. The rain in the province was really heavy, and they would have to work hard in the heavy rain.
We have found something to do for the villagers and can reduce the panic in their hearts with sweat. Everyone is satisfied with this kind of thing. After all, there is a way to build some sense of security for ourselves.
Although they strengthened the house and went to work, they still did not let them know what caused such a strange situation, but it gave them comfort in their hearts and used labor to
Venting, using physical strength in exchange for safety, and strengthening the house can also provide them with a sense of security in some way.
A rare large-scale house repair has begun in the village. There are people working hard on the roof of almost every house. Some people have even formed a team and started to help and work from house to house.
When everyone was busy, no one noticed that Xu Guodong's home seemed a little quiet. The only teacher in the village was not at his home at this time.
He walked out of his home and walked towards the place where the old Taoist lived. There were only the old Taoist and the young man. In the past three years, he and the old Taoist had communicated hundreds of times and had become close friends. Now this happened.
The situation reminds me of the house where old Taoists and young people live.
Xu Guodong wants to let them live in his home, so that when there are more people, it will be safer.
It is strange to say that after three years, this old Taoist is very good at talking, but the young man seems to be mute and has not said a word at all.
No matter who he was or what time he was, this young man always lowered his head and worked quietly. He ignored others who greeted him and just listened to the words of the old Taoist.
He is said to be the apprentice of an old Taoist, but if you look closely, he looks more like a servant of an old Taoist.
Xu Guodong did not tell outsiders about this matter. He once asked an old Taoist, and his explanation at the time was that this young man should do such a thing at this stage of cultivation.
The old Taoist has never said what he practices. It seems to be Taoism, but it feels specious.
This was someone else's secret, and Xu Guodong only asked a few times. After all, if he could tell it, the veteran Taoist would probably have told it himself.
He came to the house where the old Taoist lived. The yard was not big, and there was a vegetable garden at the entrance. The young man planted a lot of seasonal vegetables here for daily consumption.
Xu Guodong didn't knock on the door, just opened the door and walked in. It was not the first time for him to come here. Of course he knew that the old Taoist and the young man would never close the courtyard door. At first, he knocked on the door.
However, after a few times, when I found that no one would come even if I knocked on the door, it became a habit to just open the door and go in.
Walking into the yard, it was quiet inside. Xu Guodong knocked on the door of the house. The door was closed. Xu Guodong knocked for a long time, but no one came to open the door. He leaned against the window and looked around, then walked in by himself.
But he discovered it only after he entered.
The two people who were supposed to be in the house have disappeared without knowing when...
