He really couldn't figure out why he came back to Tiandi Pawnshop?
At this time, when Zhang Fan heard his description, he burst into laughter, and Chen Guangrui was stunned!
"Did His Majesty of the Tang Dynasty appoint you as the governor of Jiangzhou and require you to take your family by sea? You plan to take your newlywed wife with you, right?"
At this time, Zhang Fan already knew who Chen Guangrui was.
He is Tang Monk's father, and also the Tang Dynasty's top scholar Chen Guangrui who was pushed into the river by a boatman and persecuted. At that time, he was appointed as the prefect of Jiangzhou. When he was killed, his wife Yin Wenjiao was already three months pregnant.
In Journey to the West, when Chen Guangrui was on his way to Jiangzhou to take up his post, two boatmen, Liu Hong and Li Biao, plotted to kill him for money. Chen Guangrui was pushed into the river, and Miss Yin was taken over by Liu Hong. Liu Hong took Chen Guangrui's official title and went to Jiangzhou to take up his post openly. Miss Yin wanted to die, but thinking of her husband's revenge and being pregnant, she had to endure the humiliation for the time being and later gave birth to a baby boy.
And that baby boy was later known as Tang Monk.
After giving birth to a baby boy, Miss Yin put him on a wooden board in the river and wrote a letter in blood, asking kind people who saw the child to adopt him. The baby boy was later adopted by a monk and grew up in a temple. This was Xuanzang.
He found his grandfather Yin Kaishan and led his troops to capture the two villains Liu Hong and Li Biao. However, Miss Yin Wenjiao eventually committed suicide because of her own infidelity.
Their son Xuanzang later went to the West to obtain Buddhist scriptures and accepted three disciples. The eldest disciple was Sun Wukong who made trouble in Heaven, the second disciple was Zhu Bajie, and the third disciple was Sha Wujing!
The story was later written into a book, Journey to the West, which is known to almost every household.
In fact, not long after, Chen Guangrui was pushed into the river by a boatman and drowned. Then his wife and children were taken away from him. His fate was quite miserable. Although he got revenge, his wife committed suicide.
But Chen Guangrui didn't know this at the time, so he felt that everything was going smoothly for him. He had no treasures to pawn, and there was nothing he needed to come to this pawnshop for.
"Hey, sir, are you a god? How did you know that His Majesty has granted me the post of governor of Jiangzhou, and that I need to travel by water, and that I also plan to bring my wife along?"
Chen Guangrui was surprised this time. He stood up suddenly and bowed to Zhang Fan again.
"I have received three gifts from you. I have to tell you something. When you go to Jiangzhou, you will meet two boatmen named Liu Hong and Li Biao. They will push you into the river. You are not good at swimming and you will definitely die. Your wife is actually pregnant with your child. In order to give birth to the child, she will have to endure humiliation..."
"But after your child is born, he will have a connection with Buddhism, so he must become a monk!"
When Zhang Fan said this, Chen Guangrui opened his mouth in surprise, his face filled with shock that could not be described in words.
Because just today, his wife told him shyly that the doctor had diagnosed that she was one month pregnant and would come for a follow-up check-up in some time. This time, in order to prevent his wife from having a bumpy journey, he planned to take the smooth water route.
Chen Guangrui had never known how to swim since he was a child, and not many people knew about it, not even his wife knew it. Who would have thought that this gentleman with a mask on his face knew everything?
He is truly a god!
"God, save me! God, save me!"
When she thought that every word the immortal said was true, then the persecution he would encounter at the hands of the boatman must be true. And according to his wife's character, she was doing this for the flesh and blood of the Chen family in her belly.
She will certainly endure humiliation and give birth to the child with great difficulty.
What the immortal said was absolutely true, which made Chen Guangrui panic. He knelt on the ground and shouted directly at Zhang Fan, "God, save me!"
His anxious look made Zhang Fan smile slightly.
Fortunately, Chen Guangrui is worthy of being the top scholar. He thinks quickly and is much better than the pedantic Tang Monk, so he can avoid a lot of arguments.
"It's not difficult to save you. My Pawnshop has something that can instantly allow you to soak in water for a day or two without drowning or dying in a foreign land. I can raise your child, but I have a condition regarding your child..."
Zhang Fan looked at Chen Guangrui. In fact, he had a resurrection soup. Even if Chen Guangrui drowned, he could still bring him back to life.
It’s just a pity that his wife, Miss Yin, will have to suffer humiliation for eighteen years, and her child will be lonely after being born, and will not be able to enjoy family happiness at all. It would be better for her to make a deal with him now.
The Pawnshop of Heaven and Earth got the profit, Miss Yin would not commit suicide after her innocence was ruined, and their children could enjoy the love of their parents.
"Regarding the child, the child has not been born yet. I really can't figure out what the gods want. Please tell me frankly..."
At this time, Chen Guangrui kept calling Zhang Fan a god, and in his mind he really regarded Zhang Fan as a living god.
If he wasn't a god, how could he predict the future and know everything?
"Your child is a son, and he will have a destiny with Buddha in the future. If you want him to grow up safely, you must send him to the Pure Land Temple in Luoyang to become a monk. My request is that when your son grows up, he can agree to three conditions that do not violate his conscience and are within his ability. This is considered as a reward for saving the lives of your family of three..."
Zhang Fan knew that his son would be Tang Monk in the future, and the reincarnation of Jin Chanzi, the eldest disciple of Buddha. After achieving enlightenment, he was named "Sandalwood Merit Buddha".
At this time, writing an agreement with his father and saving his life can be regarded as a cause and effect relationship with Tang Seng. Buddhism pays most attention to cause and effect. The contract signed by his father only needs to be stamped with the bloody handprint and the seal of the Pawnshop of Heaven and Earth.
Even if the cause and effect is determined, Zhang Fan is not afraid that Tang Seng will not admit it in the future.
"Ah, three conditions that do not violate conscience and morality and are within one's ability?"
It was the first time that Chen Guangrui encountered a deity with such a request. However, the three conditions were equivalent to the lives of his family of three. Just as the deity said, he could not water and would be murdered.
His wife would commit suicide after her innocence was destroyed. Based on these reasons, it was not excessive to agree to the three conditions of the immortal.
What's more, the gods have set limits for these three conditions, which really shows their consideration for his son. Although his son will feel distressed in the future, it is nothing compared to his life.
Unborn children seem unworthy of mention.
So Chen Guangrui quickly stood up and bowed to Zhang Fan again.
"Thank you for the rescue, God. I am willing to agree to all your conditions. I want to live and see my child born..."
Hearing that Chen Guangrui agreed to his master's request, Hua Yueying on the side curled up her lips. The master was really smart. He used his ability to control water to exchange what Chen Guangrui needed most from Xu Jiang!
Chen Guangrui had no idea what the contract he signed meant.
