"It is better to live in a wild grave than in an ancient temple at night." Why is an ancient temple more terrible than a barren grave?

Perhaps compared with today, some previous traditions will still be used today. For example, obvious superstitions, I believe there are still many elderly or middle-aged people who still have a previous superstition. Like some fortune tellers.

Having said that, I can't help thinking that in the past, ancient people seemed to be afraid of ancient temples. If you compare the ancient temple with the ancient tomb, they may be really afraid of the ancient temple. So do you think it's a little strange, isn't it because graves are more terrible? And in some TV dramas, if someone has no place to rest on the road, they will go to the ancient temple to rest.

And at that time, I didn't feel that they were afraid. But in ancient times, many people were afraid of ancient temples. Why?

As we all know, although the dead are the biggest, many people used to bury some dead people in some wild places, so they can be called barren graves. So another explanation is the tomb that nobody cares about. And most of those graves are the kind that few people take care of and sweep them later. So it's a little sad. Not only that, if the buried person is not cremated, he will stay there directly or be buried there. Not only that, there will be weeds there, so if they are released now, many people will feel terrible.

Then when the ancient temple is different, this one is more sad. Because ancient temples can also be called temples. That's because people built it for their dead ancestors and some people with faith. But later, with the passage of time, the younger generation who used to clean these things gradually declined, so there were fewer and fewer people who took care of the ancient temple. Moreover, according to the relevant data, many old people who died unjustly were buried there, not because they were dissatisfied with their lives and sought justice for themselves.

So there is a saying that there are many ghosts in ancient temples, and people are afraid of such ghosts. Then do you know why people in the past were so afraid of ancient temples?
