Seeing that it was not early, I thought of going to see Wang Ziren's postal album, and a few people ate breakfast and came to Wang Ziren's rented house.

As soon as he entered the house, Huang Youcai looked around: on a large thick wooden bed, simple covers were neatly stacked, and daily necessities were placed on the ground in an orderly manner.

Although the house is dilapidated and the items are shabby, they are all well organized and cleaned, so to speak, spotless.

"Brother Wang, where's the stamp album? Give us your precious stamp book to open your eyes! Huang Youcai looked around and didn't see the stamp album, so he asked.

Recently, he heard Qian Yongqiang say that he should pay attention to the stamps he usually receives, some of which are valuable. An inconspicuous piece of paper can easily be in the thousands. As long as it is said to be something that is worth a lot of money, Huang Youcai has nothing to study without his heart.

"It's under the bed." Wang Ziren pointed to the bottom of the bed.

Huang Youcai climbed to the ground and looked under the bed, and sure enough, there was a cardboard box.

However, this cardboard box was close to the bed, Huang Youcai reached out and didn't reach it, lying on the ground and drilling inward, because Huang Youcai was too burly, his body couldn't get in, only one head got in, and the neck was stuck on the side of the bed below.

Huang Youcai stretched out his arm to grab the cardboard box, but it was dozens of centimeters away, and his fingers couldn't touch the box, so he gave up after working hard for a while, he pulled Li Qiming and said, "Come on, I'm too big to get in." ”

"Haha!" Li Qiming laughed at Huang Youcai, squatted down, got under the bed with a rub, and dragged out a dusty cardboard box.

"Laugh, you look like a thin monkey, and you're embarrassed to laugh at me, apart from doing this kind of work, you are better than me, what else can compare to me?" Huang Youcai pulled a towel, handed it to Li Qiming, and said, "Wipe the dust on it." ”

Li Qiming is often bullied by Huang Youcai, and he is not angry, because he knows that although this person has a bad mouth and likes to take advantage of a little advantage, he is kind-hearted and upright, and has always cared for him like a little brother, so he generally doesn't care about him.

"Ah, what is this?" When Li Qiming wiped the dust off the carton and gently opened the carton, Huang Youcai and Li Qiming jumped back like an electric shock at the same time.

"What's wrong?" Qian Yongqiang and Wang Ziren asked in unison.

But seeing that Huang Youcai and Li Qiming's faces were pale, Li Qiming's lips trembled and said, "Snake! There are snakes! ”

Wang Ziren and Qian Yongqiang heard that there was a snake and hurriedly walked over.

"Where's the snake?"

"Where is the serpent?"

Li Qiming pointed to the cardboard box and said with palpitations: "There, in the cardboard box!" ”

Hearing that the snake was in the cardboard box, Wang Ziren's scalp tingled for a while.

You know, this cardboard box is always under the bed. That is, every day when he was sleeping in bed, a snake was entrenched under the bed, silently watching him - this feeling was terrible!

Suddenly, the cardboard box moved, and a huge cauliflower snake slowly crawled out of the gap in the corner, and I saw it holding its neck high, spitting out scarlet letters, and staring at everyone.

Several people instinctively stepped back.

After Huang Youcai calmed down for a while, he wiped the cold sweat on his forehead and grabbed the stick in the corner of the wall.

"I'll kill you!" Huang Youcai grabbed the stick, shouted, and rushed straight towards the snake.

"Can't fight!" Qian Yongqiang grabbed Huang Youcai, pushed him to the wall, and then beckoned everyone and said, "This is a cauliflower snake, it is not poisonous, let's all stand aside and let it out." ”

Seeing that everyone was no longer hostile, the snake quickly swam out of the feet of the crowd with a slight sound, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

"Scared me to death, why didn't you let me shoot it?" See that the snake does not fight three points of sin'! Huang Youcai threw the stick away, and asked Qian Yongqiang with trembling lips.

"It's a house snake. Haven't you heard that the house snake can't be beaten, and it's bad luck to kill the owner? Qian Yongqiang explained. If you hit it, and you don't kill it, and let it escape, then you're in trouble, and the snake will seek revenge on you after it recovers its wounds! ”

"Oh my god! Scared the hell out of me. Fortunately, I didn't hit it, if I was killed, if I didn't kill it, then I don't have to live in fear every day? ”

Wang Ziren glared at Huang Youcai: "If you beat it to death, then don't I have to be unlucky?" ”

"I seem to have heard of it before, there is such a thing, no, I forgot about it in a hurry!" Huang Youcai smiled embarrassedly and clasped his fists at Wang Ziren to apologize.

"Brother Qian, tell me well, why did you hit this snake, and the owner of this house should be unlucky?" Wang Ziren wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, looked at Qian Yongqiang, and said:

"If it weren't for a few of you on the ground just now, I would have beaten it to death! I'm not afraid of anything in my life, but I'm afraid of this snake. Regardless of whether the big snake or the small snake is poisonous or not, I am afraid, and when I see it, I get goosebumps all over my body, and I am afraid to death! ”

Seeing Wang Ziren, who was as strong as an iron tower, standing there nervously with a red face and rubbing his hands against each other, Qian Yongqiang pretended to be calm and said:

"I also read from a book that said that the snake hidden in the house is the keeper of the house, and it will not only not harm the master, but will also protect the master.

"The snake is spiritual, and if you hit it, it will bring bad luck to the master's family; If it is not killed, but it is injured, it will hold a grudge against you and seek revenge on you! ”

"I see! Fortunately, I didn't let Huang Youcai beat it, it's so dangerous, if I let Huang Youcai beat it to death, I will be unlucky! Wang Ziren secretly rejoiced.

"Okay, the snake is gone, let's open the carton and see what treasure is hidden in this tiger and dragon plate!" Qian Yongqiang walked towards the cardboard box.

Li Qiming hurriedly grabbed Qian Yongqiang and said, "Master, don't you dare to go over, what if there is a snake inside?" ”

"How can there be so many snakes?" Qian Yongqiang was stunned for a moment, and his eyes motioned for Huang Youcai to go over to see the situation first, because he felt that this kid was usually quite bold.

Huang Youcai shrank his neck and hurriedly stepped back, but thinking that he couldn't lose face in front of so many people, he picked up his stick and walked cautiously towards the cardboard box.

He first stretched out his arm from a distance and picked open the lid of the cardboard box with a stick, and after opening the lid, the man and the stick quickly retreated, waited for a long time to see that there was no movement, and then stirred back and forth in the cardboard box with the stick a few times, and saw that his forehead was covered with dense beads of sweat.

"It's all right!" Huang Youcai threw away the stick, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and beckoned the other three to come forward.

Seeing that it was indeed fine, several people emboldened each other, and then slowly walked over.

"Li Qiming, bring the cardboard box over." Huang Youcai instructed Li Qiming to move the cardboard box, and he stood sideways to the side, staring wide-eyed.

"Why don't you move?" Li Qiming muttered, but reluctantly moved the carton, and then quickly put the carton in front of Huang Youcai, and the whole person quickly retreated behind Huang Youcai.

"There are snakes!" Li Qiming shouted and pushed Huang Youcai forward.

Huang Youcai was taken aback: "Where are the snakes?" ”

"Haha!" Li Qiming smiled and leaned back.

"Dare to tease me!" Huang Youcai stretched out his hand to grab Li Qiming, Li Qiming was thin and small, and he dodged away with a snort, and quickly hid behind Wang Ziren.

"Don't make a fuss, how about taking a look at what's inside?" Qian Yongqiang took the lead and walked over.

Li Qiming was bold, picked up the box, and poured out all the contents in one go. When the dust cleared, I could clearly see a dozen tattered storybooks and a green philatelic album lying on the ground.

Li Qiming flipped through those storybooks and shook his head at Qian Yongqiang: "These books are useless, they can't be sold, they can only be disposed of as waste paper." ”

Wang Ziren was slightly disappointed when he saw Li Qiming's demeanor, these books were the best books he had encountered in the past few years.

Huang Youcai was holding the only philatelic album and was intently flipping through them one by one, for fear of missing a certain stamp of great value.

"How?" Wang Ziren asked.

"It's all average, I haven't seen any tickets worth a lot of money." Huang Youcai replied casually, without even raising his eyelids, his attention was still on the stamp book in his hand.

"I knew there wouldn't be anything valuable, because I didn't understand anything at all, I kept them all randomly!" Seeing that the entire stamp album had been almost flipped through by Huang Youcai, Wang Ziren was completely disappointed.

Wang Ziren paid attention to Qian Yongqiang, and said: "Thinking about it, I'd better move to you quickly, it's really panicked to live here." Do me a favor and move out now, I really can't live overnight! ”

"Outside your house is a large wasteland, overgrown with weeds, and it is inevitable that some small animals will break in by mistake." Qian Yongqiang said.

"Yes, it's not a good place to live. It turns out that it's cheap here, but now I don't want money to live in it, and I don't live there!

When Qian Yongqiang and Li Qiming heard this, they couldn't help laughing.

Li Qiming teased him and said, "Brother Wang, your rent has just been paid for a few days, do you want to move after you finish living?" Don't lose that way! ”

"I don't want to stay here for a minute, let alone a month." As he spoke, Wang Ziren began to clean up his pots and pans and toiletries.

"Brother Wang, don't be busy first, wait for Huang Youcai to finish reading the stamps, let's all work together to help you clean up, the ready-made tricycle outside can be moved in two or three trips!" Qian Yongqiang said.

"Yes, Brother Wang, wait for Huang Youcai to do it together, how can this work lack the big man Huang who is as strong as an ox!" Li Qiming said that he would wait for Huang Youcai to do it together, but his hands were not idle, and he began to help Wang Ziren clean up.

"Come and see, come and see, what is this!" When the three of them were cleaning up, they heard Huang Youcai shout violently, "Brother Wang, you sent it, this time you really sent it-you must have a treat!" ”
