And those old men didn't seem to realize that they could write such a masterpiece, and they instantly had the feeling that they were the only ones in the world. However, this feeling of pride did not last long, and when the quota for half-price salt was confirmed, those who begged for their help dispersed in a hurry.

The old men were back to when the village had just changed. Naturally, they can't afford such a big gap, the world is changing so fast, and those old men can't help but scold their mothers again.

It's just that the inherent concept in their hearts tells them that although these swear words can accurately vent their dissatisfaction, they are still indecent words, and they have to say a few words when no one is around.

After that, I held the masterpiece I wrote and enjoyed it alone. Some of them could not bear the blow and fell ill and are still lying in hospital beds.

Strange to say, these changes are not remarkable when viewed alone: everyone just adds fuel and vinegar to say something about the rights and wrongs of others, and does not fabricate and slander them out of thin air; everyone is nothing more than not interested in doing their work, and they do not cause trouble.

In short, all the people did not kill people and set fires to become great traitors, and all they showed were some physical faults, and they were just faults, and they did not rise to the level of right and wrong, good and evil.

Of course, along with these problems, there is also people's shame, and from the day of the change, everyone's shame has become small and small, and perhaps it is because of this that people have not noticed their own changes.

At first, such changes did not bring any harm to the village, it was nothing more than that everyone became lazy, arrogant, procrastinated, and hypocritical. These things are not a big deal in the first place, this is a problem that almost everyone has, but they usually don't show it, or just a few people rarely show it.

As soon as someone shows that the other people around them will start to feel uncomfortable, and the person who behaves will naturally realize it and start to correct it. Of course, this is a normal situation, after all, there are very few manifestations, and the sober ones account for the vast majority, and even if it happens, it will get better quickly.

But the situation in Renji Village is completely different, when everyone shows a bad side, no one thinks it's bad, because everyone is the same, no matter what is really right or wrong, what is different from everyone else is wrong, because everyone is the only criterion for judging it.

This may seem strange to outsiders, but when you are in Renji Village at that time, you will feel that it is normal. Truth is in the hands of the minority, but reality is dominated by the majority, and whether it is right or wrong, it is a fact, at least for a long time. In this way, Renji Village began to live a normal life that was different from before in the midst of the problems that everyone had highlighted.

Gradually, these minor problems that are not a big deal create big problems. Although everyone is also working, due to low enthusiasm and low efficiency, the harvest will naturally not be much better.

So the farming also went to work in the field, but it was no longer so active, and it was necessary to wait until it was necessary to start working, and the dealer was naturally not much better. The same is true for those who do business, no longer adhering to the concept of God rewarding hard work, but just getting by, and naturally they will not make a lot of money.

In the past, Renji Village was mostly self-sufficient, but there were still passing vendors, and since Renji Village began to change its size, those guests and vendors did not come to visit.

It was as if they had been arranged in a unified manner, and it was from that day on, Renji Village seemed to be forgotten by the people, and people no longer had the intention of stepping into Renji Village, and Renji Village became a place that no one cared about.

Lu Mu thought that there must have been some changes in Renji Village, and the reason why these changes did not suddenly reach the point of being uncontrollable as Wang Ming said, must be related to that auspicious light, and Wang Ming's later statement also confirmed Lu Mu's speculation.

In this way, Renji Village suddenly changed from a civilized village near and far to a place that no one cared about, and this change came so quickly that it was as if Renji Village had never existed in just one day.

This situation has lasted for half a year, and the problems in Renji Village have become more and more serious, and the originally extremely wealthy village has begun to have insufficient food, and the originally happy villagers no longer show a sad look on their faces all the time.

It was also at this time that Wang Ming's body began to undergo some changes, and he began to become sad, especially when he saw people talking about right and wrong together, when he saw his father severely reprimanding his subordinates, and when he saw that his subordinates were no longer cheating and playing tricks all the time, an inexplicable sadness always rose in his heart.

At the beginning, this sadness was only a fleeting, Wang Ming still admired his father's appearance, and always followed his father to reprimand and tease his subordinates, and always couldn't help but listen to the tongues of those idlers.

He also used his ability to actively participate in them, and every time he did these things, he was naturally very excited, and he also felt that life should be like this, at that time, he naturally couldn't see the dignity, food and clothing of these problems, and the same is true for those who have these problems.

Gradually, when Wang Ming sleeps at night, he always has some inexplicable dreams, I don't know where it is, there is no one around but a white expanse, and some sounds can be faintly heard, which slowly become louder and louder, and the high and low are intertwined. The voices were mixed, but they could all be heard repeating the phrase, "Wake up, wake up." ”

The sound gradually increased, and it was not until the deafening Wang Ming woke up. At first, Wang Ming didn't care, but since then, Wang Ming has the same dream almost every night. Every time he would wake up, he would be covered in cold sweat.

Wang Ming didn't rest well at night, and his spirit was naturally not good, but his sadness became more and more intense with his mental weakness.

Wang Ming was listless every day, so he didn't have the energy to participate in those things that talked about people, and he couldn't be happy when he saw his father reprimanding people.

He began to shut himself in the study, and he found that his heart was quiet only when he was reading, and one day he fell asleep in the study, and he still had that dream at night, only this time he saw a lot of people, and people were busy building houses.

Everyone's face was happy, and the house was soon built, from one to two, from one street to two, and gradually before his eyes appeared the shape of a complete village, which was beautiful and the people here were happy.

Wang Ming looked at the situation in front of him, and a warm current gradually rose in his heart, and his eyes moistened, just when Wang Ming was sad, suddenly the dream returned to its original state, everything around him disappeared, and the cry of grief could be heard everywhere.

Wang Ming was anxious and wanted to shout but couldn't make a sound, the more anxious he was, the more he couldn't speak, and all the tears fell down at once. Wang Ming felt that his chest began to suffocate, and gradually this feeling of suffocation spread to his whole body, and he began to become difficult to breathe.

Just when he was about to suffocate, suddenly an old man appeared in front of him, the old man looked a little familiar, but Wang Ming no longer had the strength to think about these problems at the moment, he instinctively reached out for help.

The old man looked at him like this and didn't move, Wang Ming's consciousness began to blur, and when he was about to faint, the old man suddenly pushed him with his hand, and said that it was time to wake up.

Wang Ming fell to the ground from the desk with a stumble, Wang Ming also woke up, and forgot most of what he had just done, Wang Ming was just about to stand up, and suddenly felt an incomparably heavy pain in his chest, and spit out a mouthful of blood, his heart was clear, and the dream also remembered.

Wang Ming felt that the old man in the dream was somewhat similar to his father, although he remembered what the old man said to him, but he didn't understand what it meant, at this time Wang Ming had not recovered his original appearance, and still felt that something seemed to be hitting in his heart. Wang Ming tried hard to recall the dream just now, and also carefully thought about the old man's words.

Suddenly, Wang Ming's heart moved, thinking about whether the village in the dream was Renji Village, in order to verify his idea, Wang Ming got up and walked towards the ancestral hall, Wang Ming remembered that there was a village diary in the ancestral hall, which clearly recorded the history of Renji Village.

It is also the will of heaven, when Wang Ming walked to the ancestral hall, he found that the door of the ancestral hall was ajar, which is generally not allowed, and the door of the ancestral hall has been closed since the change in Renji Village.

It was several elders in the village who proposed this, because the villagers of this village always felt very uncomfortable in their hearts when they entered the ancestral hall, and everyone in the village was like this, and Wang Ming was no exception.

The elders of the village did not investigate the reason, so they proposed to lock up the ancestral hall and let special people clean it every month, this foolish proposal with no basis at all was supported by all the villagers, and this place that was supposed to be remembered by the villagers was closed by them without care.

Since then, the villagers have not been allowed to enter the ancestral hall, and in fact no one wants to enter the ancestral hall, but only to find a few people who are not related to the village to come in and clean it every once in a while.

The elders of the village instructed the ancestral hall to be locked after cleaning, saying that after all, this is the resting place of the ancestors, and the descendants should not be too unfilial. Today was supposed to be the time to clean the ancestral hall, but the person who cleaned suddenly had a stomachache and casually locked it and left, and did not find that he was not locked properly, and it was precisely because of this that Wang Ming had the opportunity to come in.

And Wang Ming himself didn't know why he came in inexplicably, he was supposed to read the village log, and the reason why it was so was because he had a dream, everything seemed so ridiculous, but everything was so inevitable when connected.
