Postscript to the Mystery of the Wooden House

Through this case, it can be regarded as a brief introduction to the customs and anecdotes of the hometown, but the story is accompanied by fictional bloody rain, which feels a little too cruel, why not? However, life seems to be like this, how can there be any real quiet years. Fortunately, we will not forget our nostalgia because of any bad or ugly things in our hometown, nor will we abandon them because of many relatives and friends.

But it is precisely this kind of blindness that often prevents us in the authorities from avoiding many tragedies. When the social environment has not changed, the rural customs are simple, and some things are covered up by the slow pace of life, and it is difficult to be noticed; once the social changes are drastic, this kind of deeply hidden contradiction will appear in unexpected dark places, and explode violently, making people unprepared and causing tragedy!

The list goes on.

For those of us who are thousands of miles away from home and uprooted from home, what is stirred and concerned in our hearts will be more about the vision: to have little to rely on, to provide for the elderly, to get rid of poverty, and not to let fairness and justice be absent.

But how easy is this?!

When many nominal city dwellers mention their hometowns, they are more likely to have mixed tastes: sweet and sour, bitter, spicy and salty, all of which are indispensable.

I don't want to give up, but I don't have the opportunity to get close.

It is a luxury to be able to visit home occasionally during the New Year's Festival, and it is not uncommon for people to move their families into the city and carry their burdens. Therefore, a well-populated village like Luoshui Village is a fantasy in itself. Novels, you might as well ignore the element of time and extrapolate it forward to seven, eight or nine years, which must be logical. At that time, the village was still full of popularity, the fields were still vibrant, and the folk customs were still steaming......

During the writing of this novel, I was [lucky] to go back to my hometown due to an accidental theft in my home, and I thought I would change some of the content in the book, but I found that what I saw and thought was exactly what was described in the book, so I had to give up...... Perhaps, the first draft is the most true and straightforward portrayal, and it is better not to add snakes to the table at will.

Many people must be curious, how is the progress of the theft case in my hometown, I am afraid that I will disappoint you, and there are some things that Beiting can do in person. There is no monitoring in the countryside, only the deaf and dazzling empty nesters who keep the house, plus the fact that dogs have not been allowed to be raised over the years, and the chicken and dog thieves have been allowed to enter and exit like no one, which seems to be higher than Chu Liuxiang and Sikong Star Picking Technology, which really makes people feel powerless.

In addition, the relatives and friends of the old man couldn't bear it, and before returning home, they repaired the thief hole in the wall, cleaned the old house, and cleaned up the scattered items.

After several twists and turns, in the end, only in the People's Insurance Company was compensated 1,000 yuan for comprehensive treatment insurance, and it was necessary to sign like a self-deception: if the police crack the case to recover the lost money, voluntarily return all the compensation.

Uh, I can't laugh or cry!

I hope that good and evil will be rewarded in the end, not that they will not be rewarded, but the time has not yet come...... Ironically, Beiting never believed in this!

Getting down to business –

The fish intestine sword in the book is apocryphal, but I have also consulted some official histories and wild histories, saying that it is in the Li family, of course, you don't need to believe it. But no one knows where this ancient divine weapon is, so far no one knows, so I boldly speculate that it is hidden in the ancestral temple of the Li family, and it is also one of the divine predictions, at least I can't say that I am wrong.

Everyone will be wrong!

Illegal logging of yew is very common, and as long as there are wild varieties in the south, it is almost impossible to escape the doom, so there is no need to doubt the authenticity of this matter, but there is no need to exaggerate the role of yew itself, it is only endangered. Note that as long as you don't buy or sell, it's not illegal, for example, you can safely burn dead wood for warmth......

So, yew is not the subject of this book, so what exactly is it trying to express?

In fact, this wooden house mystery case mainly wants to talk about the invisible "crooked wind", every few years, there will be a crooked wind invasion in the countryside, the most powerful thing about these rumors is that it is difficult to distinguish the true from the false: for example, yew can cure cancer (maybe it is true, but it has already changed its flavor with false rumors), golden clematis is tens of thousands of yuan per catty in the city, the countryside is full of antiques, the scales of pangolins can replenish blood, and the results of the Mark Six lottery lottery depend on the food every day, it sounds more ridiculous than the other, but there are many blind followers. As a result, the poor and crazy people frantically destroy their own extremely limited resources, and then kill chickens and eggs, and become poorer than poorer.

It can be said that there is a big drama of manipulation and hearsay staged in the countryside every day!

Of course, this is also something that has only happened in the past ten years: people's hearts have fluctuated, rumors have become disasters, and rural customs and folk customs have been completely destroyed.

In the past, in order to return to his hometown, he was excited day and night, and then he threw himself into the tide of the Spring Festival. But now when I return home, I suddenly find that everything has changed, those original things have basically been discarded, and there is nothing left to squander, and instead everyone talks about making money, and everyone talks about going to the city.

So now every time I go home, I am always filled with deep loss and melancholy for no reason.

In recent years, the country has been vigorously restoring folk customs, but the effect has been slow, and urbanization has become unstoppable, which is an objective reason, but the hometown complex that has been destroyed from the root may be the culprit. Restoring folklore requires the restoration of simple feelings, and many people have become less interested in these for the sake of money.

Many people say that it is the fault of poverty.

Is that really the case?

Remember the fragrant game in the oil pot, the sweet potatoes sprayed in the campfire, the freshly crisp boiled peanuts, and the lock of edamame just out of the pot.

Of course not.

What we lose is the original intention, and what grows is the desire to be forever satisfied.

No one wants to go back to the poor past, so many people think that the spiritual sacrifice is worth it and can be bottomless. But before the sweetness has been tasted, the evil consequences have become more and more apparent, right?

Some people would probably rather dig through the earth than have fun, and wait until there is no place to stand. I hope that people of insight will be able to face up to this problem on their own.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

A vision is a vision after all, and it is useless to say more!

It should be said that by the seventh part, no effort has been spared in the book on the problems that should be explained.

I don't know if there is anything missing.

Let it go.

Good night, everyone!
