There is a saying in the countryside, "It is better to pass by an empty house than to sit on a grave dam." Why is this special in the village?

China culture has a long history of 5,000 years, including some profound proverbs.

Some have been handed down through the records of historical classics, and some have been passed down by word of mouth.

Although these classics cover a wide range, people with life experience will find that most of these proverbs are very reasonable. Today, we are going to tell one of them.

1. What does it mean to "sit on a grave dam rather than pass by an empty house"?

First of all, if you interpret this sentence literally, you would rather sit in a cemetery full of graves than pass by an empty house in the wild.

We know that many graves built in the middle of nowhere are terrible. In the dead of night, they not only reveal desolation, but also have a gloomy feeling.

However, this sentence means that I would rather sit in such a place than pass by the door of an empty house. Why? Below I will analyze the reasons from several aspects from my point of view.

First, it may provoke "unclean" things.

This statement may involve some feudal superstitions, but in the past, people did think so.

We often see the beginning of many ghost films. Often several people travel to a desolate place. At this time, an empty house appeared, and then curious people went in and started a horrible story.

Generally speaking, why do good houses face the panic of being uninhabited? It may often be because of some strange events.

Who knows what will happen if you break into a house where the owner doesn't even live?

Second, it may be attacked by poisonous animals and insects.

In fact, it is easy to understand that moving an empty house all the year round will inevitably breed some poisonous snakes. In his deserted days, those poisonous snakes and insects have regarded this place as their own territory, and outsiders will inevitably lead to their attacks. Now in the wild, those unknown poisonous insect bites may not be rescued in time, and there may not be medicine to rescue them.

Third, you may step on traps and other dangerous goods.

In rural areas, many hunters will set traps in empty houses to catch some animals.

These traps are so exquisitely designed that ordinary people may hardly notice them. Moreover, in many areas, before the Anti-Japanese War, there may be mines that have not been eliminated. When ordinary people accidentally step on them, they may have been unconscious before being rescued.

Fourth, you may accidentally break into some dangerous situations.

A dense forest, an uninhabited house, not only you want to go in and have a look, but also those unknown bad guys want to go in and hide.

In many TV dramas, those princesses often choose such empty houses to trade. Of course, such an incident may not happen in this peaceful era, but it is difficult to guarantee that we need to be careful. It is possible that we meet not only kidnappers, but also desperate criminals.

From the above description, many people must have a certain understanding of the dangers of empty houses, so when you encounter such empty houses in the wild in the future, don't think about going in to find out. Please be careful for our safety.

With the development of the times, our times are different from the past.

Many people like to travel to some unknown scenic spots, and at this time, going to a wild ridge and having nowhere to hide in the vacant house will inevitably become their best choice. This sentence is to tell them.

When choosing another place to stay, you must know it carefully.

Although it is lucky to have a place to stay in the wild, it is also essential to have a basic examination of him.

From another point of view, we know the above four reasons why we can't go, so we can explore the house from these directions.

Regardless of feudal superstition, before we enter the house, we must first look at the nests of poisonous insects and poisonous snakes that may appear inside.

Secondly, we should observe the terrain, eliminate the places where traps may be laid, and then we must check every corner to prevent any dangerous elements from hiding in it.

Summary:

The above is all my understanding and views on this famous saying.

When we go to a strange place, we should still pay attention to our own safety. This proverb is not necessarily without its truth. what do you think of it ? What other similar statements have you heard? Welcome to share your message in the comments section.
