During the Qing Dynasty, there was a young man named Li Junxian in Liujia Village near Tianhe. He was adopted by an old salesman from the same village when he was a child. The two became masters and apprentices, and they made money by delivering goods together on weekdays.

As time went by, Li Junxian discovered that the old salesman never delivered goods at night, and would rush home every day before the sun went down. In addition, he often carries a broken shoulder pole and hangs it behind his back when he is not using it to pick goods. Li Junxian was very curious about this, so he often asked the old salesman why? The old salesman just smiled and said he would wait until the day he actually started training.

After dinner that day, the old shopkeeper summoned Li Junxian into his room and said he had something important. As soon as Li Junxian entered the door, he saw the broken pole enshrined on the desk. The old shopkeeper handed him three sticks of incense and said solemnly: "Kneel down and kowtow to the pole."

Li Junxian did not dare to neglect, kowtowed and burned incense. When everything was done, the old shopkeeper said again: "Although you have been delivering goods to me for many years , but he is not a real peddler. I will tell you the secret of being a peddler now."

He said that every profession has rules. For example, when a peddler must remember not to walk at night, if he has to go, he must bring "Qian." "Tiaobian" is a pole that has been carried on the shoulders of thousands of merchants. It contains a lot of yang energy and can be used to save lives in times of crisis. The pole he kowtows to is the "Qiantiaobian".

After hearing this, Li Junxian asked doubtfully: "Master, you told me not to walk at night, are you afraid of encountering dirty things? But in broad daylight, how can there be monsters and monsters?"

The old shopkeeper laughed and said, "If you don't believe it, You can try it. "

Although Li Junxian respected his master, he didn't quite believe what he said. It happened that on this day, Liu Fuhao entrusted him to deliver goods to Zhangjiacun, fifty miles away, and the reward was extremely generous. Li Junxian agreed without thinking. Unexpectedly, something strange happened to him.

Fifty miles is not a short distance. By the time Li Junxian returned from delivering the goods, it was already dark. The cold wind blew at night, and he couldn't help but speed up his pace towards home. When we reached the outskirts of the village, we heard a woman calling for help not far away. Li Junxian's sense of justice was overwhelming, and he immediately went over to check, but the next second he was so frightened that he gasped.

It turned out that it was a giant white python that was entangled with a beautiful woman in mourning clothes. Seeing that she was about to be entangled to death, Li Junxian ignored his fear and rushed forward to fight the python, but he was no match and was thrown away by its tail.

Li Junxian calmed down and suddenly thought of the broken pole. He shouted loudly, picked up the pole and threw it at the snake. The python hissed in pain, abandoned the woman and went into the dense forest nearby.

Afterwards, the woman hurriedly knelt down to thank her. Li Junxian asked: "Girl, what are you doing here in the middle of the night? How could you meet a python?" The woman sighed and told the story. She called herself Wang Xing'er, and her father was buried that day. So I came to mourn, but I met a white python on the way home.

After hearing this, Li Junxian said: "I see, then I will send the girl home."

Wang Xing'er's nose felt sour and he said: "After my father died, I was the only one left in the family. It doesn't matter whether I go back or not."

I don't know Why, Li Junxian felt uncomfortable in his heart. Maybe he thought of his parents whom he had never met before, and he couldn't help but feel sympathy and said: "Girl, if you don't mind, come home with me." Wang Xing'er nodded gratefully.

After returning home, Li Junxian explained everything to the old salesman and took the initiative to apologize for being disobedient. The old salesman said that being able to save Wang Xing'er from the python's mouth was considered a great achievement. But the python is not dead, so we need to be more careful in the future. Li Junxian took out his shoulder pole and said confidently: "With such a magical thing, why should we be afraid of pythons?"

After that, Wang Xing'er settled down here. She was gentle and virtuous, and diligent in her hands and feet. In addition to taking care of the housework, she also took good care of her deteriorating health. Old salesman. Li Junxian feels very happy to be able to eat hot meals when he returns from delivering goods every day. Over time, the relationship between the two gradually warmed up, and they got married under the help of an old salesman.

One year passed and it was the anniversary of Wang Xinger’s father’s death. Li Junxian wanted to worship with his wife, but was asked to deliver the goods at short notice, so he told his wife to finish the worship and return home before dark.

The person who entrusted Li Junxian to deliver the goods was a vegetable farmer, and asked him to deliver vegetables to the small restaurant in the village. Unexpectedly, when he got there, the waiter told him to send it back because there was too much garlic. Li Jun argued with him lazily, so he simply bought it himself and paid the vegetable farmer when he had time.

At that time, the sun had set, and Li Junxian was worried that his wife would rush home. When I passed the west corner of the city, I saw a beautiful woman working hard to move a big box. Li Junxian was warm-hearted and walked over to take it. The beautiful woman pointed to a big house and said: "Thank you for your help, brother, move there."

Li Junxian walked towards the house with great effort, but this box was really strange. It sank on the left side for a while, then on the right side, and he was breathing weakly. There was a sound, and he wondered if there was someone locked inside?

Li Junxian was afraid of causing trouble, so after moving, he hurriedly said: "Woman, I'm leaving."

Unexpectedly, the beautiful woman suddenly stood in front of the door and said with a smile: "Brother tried so hard to help me move the box, I don't know what to do. In return, why not stay the night?" After saying that, he lifted his clothes a few times.

Li Junxian closed his eyes and said hurriedly: "My wife is still waiting for me at home, please say goodbye."

As soon as she finished speaking, the beautiful woman burst out laughing. She opened the box with her backhand and saw Wang Xinger's mouth covered and tied behind her back. Immediately afterwards, the beautiful woman transformed into a white python. She kept saying: "Why are you so anxious? Your husband and wife will be reunited this time." It turned out that it was the python from back then who came back to seek revenge on the two of them.

The python rushed over fiercely. Li Junxian was about to take out the pole, but the snake's tail was knocked off. It seemed that it knew the power of the pole and was well prepared.

Without the carrying pole to protect himself, Li Junxian was so frightened that he ran away in panic, with the python jokingly chasing after him. At an extremely critical moment, Li Junxian touched the garlic hanging around his neck, and suddenly remembered that his master once said that snakes are afraid of the smell of garlic, which must also be effective against the snake demon .

So he pulled off the head of garlic, chewed it hard, and blew on the white python with all his strength. As expected, it was robbed and kept retreating. Li Junxian took the opportunity to pick up the pole with his backhand and hit the python seven inches deep. It screamed and finally lost its breath.

Afterwards, Li Junxian rescued his wife and the two returned home smoothly. Unexpectedly, the two got a blessing in disguise. Under the guidance of the old salesman, they removed the valuables from the white python one by one and sold them for a lot of money. But the couple was not unkind for the sake of wealth, but gave most of the money to poor people. The blessing he received was that he would have two sons and a daughter in this life, and both the husband and wife would live to be eighty years old.
