What does "unfounded worry" mean?

Once upon a time, there was a country called Qi State, and there was a man named Qi Ren in Qi State. Qi Ren was a very ordinary person, but he left a well-known story to future generations, that is, " The story of "Alarmist Worrying About the Sky": Qiren worries every day that the sky will fall down and hit him. This incident arouses laughter from the people around him. It turns out that Qiren is asking for trouble and becomes the laughing stock of others.

After that, when Qi Ren walked onto the street, he always felt someone pointing at him behind him, which made him feel very uncomfortable. He knew in his heart that he had become a negative example for people. , there will never be another day of recovery. He felt very depressed, and finally one day, he fell ill in bed at home. Suddenly, Qi Ren, who was lying in bed, always felt that he was frightened for the past few days, as if something was going to happen. His nerves immediately became tense. He thought: Could it be that the ground was about to collapse? Why do I always have this premonition? However, this feeling only flashed in his mind for a moment, and soon he started laughing. It was incredible that he had such absurd thoughts after he deceived others last time. However, this feeling became stronger and stronger in his heart, and he immediately jumped out of bed. He had a desire to tell everyone his thoughts and make them all ready for the ground to collapse.

Qi Ren ran out of the house desperately, shouting everywhere: "It's terrible, the earth will collapse soon, and we will all be killed!" When the people around heard this, , couldn't help but want to laugh out loud. Someone came over and said to Qi Ren: "Where did the rumors come from? I found out that you are the maker of the rumors. You must have eaten too much to hold yourself up. Take this time to take a walk. This will help It helps digestion and saves you from talking nonsense. Didn't you fool us enough last time? If anyone listens to you again, he will be the biggest fool in the world!"

There is no way, everyone! People all over the world no longer believed in Qi Ren, so he had no choice but to hide at home. The more he thought about it, the more frightened he became, so he started digging holes in his home. It didn't take long for him to dig a small hole that could accommodate a person squatting. He got in without hesitation and hid in the hole all day without leaving the house. His sorrow and fear were always with him.

A few days later, a major earthquake measuring 6.7 on the Richter scale occurred in Qi State. When the earthquake occurred, many houses collapsed in Qi State, and many people were crushed to death. Those who survived were frightened to death. . Qi Ren was safe and sound because he hid in the cave. This time he became famous again, not infamous but famous. People from all over the country came to visit this man of God with gifts, hoping that he could give some advice. Qi Ren immediately became proud. He raised his head and said to everyone: "Don't come to me, don't you think I am overeating? And I am the creator of rumors, and..." After saying this The man immediately slapped himself a few times and said: "Don't be offended. It's all my fault for talking too much. I'm short-sighted. Please forgive me. This time I completely believe what you said."

Qiren's heart This was so beautiful. He felt that the resentment he had suppressed for many years was finally released at this moment. He felt that this moment was the most beautiful moment in his life. He stood there without saying a word. He wanted to enjoy it more. Take a look at this moment that makes him happy. However, when he looked at everyone's expectant eyes, he felt that it was impossible for him to remain silent, so he remembered his "worrying about the sky" back then. He rolled his eyes and said to everyone: "Remember the last time I talked to you? Did you say that? The sky is going to fall soon. You'd better be prepared. It's just that the time has not come yet. When the time comes, the sky will definitely fall. When the time comes, even the sun, moon, and stars in the sky will fall. It will all fall down, and no one will have a good result if it hits it."

Everyone was shocked when they heard this, and they immediately dispersed to strengthen their houses, and they stayed at home every day. , waiting for the doom of the sky to fall.

After seeing everyone disperse, Qi Ren felt extremely comfortable. However, when he returned to the room, he remembered a question and couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. He thought: I can If the ground is predicted to collapse, then my initial feeling that the sky is falling cannot be a fiction. It must be because the time has not arrived. What should I do?

Qi Ren fell into sorrow again, unable to do anything. In the end, he decided to hide in the hole he dug last time. He thought: Even if the sky falls, it will not It's so easy to hit yourself.

Qi Ren lived in the cave for a while and found it unbearable. Finally one day he got out of the cave and wanted to breathe the fresh air outside. When he walked outside the house, he immediately felt the world spinning again, and his spirit collapsed. Qi Ren knelt on the ground. At this moment, he felt that life was worse than death. He sighed to the sky, kowtowed three times and said: "God, I beg you, you should collapse, I would rather I don’t want to live like this even if I’m beaten to death!”
