Chapter 598 The Difficult Beginning of the Dark Journey to the West (5)

"If you are in a hurry, leave early tomorrow morning. I will stay and take care of my mother-in-law, and I will take her on the road when she recovers. This is what we discussed. You will go by water alone, and we will go by land. There are different paths in the first place. So it doesn't matter who comes first."

The reason why Jiang Muxue said this was because she suddenly remembered an incident. When she first read "Journey to the West", there was such a passage, which roughly meant that one morning after Chen Guangrui, Mrs. Zhang, and Wen Jiao lived in the Wanhua Store, Chen Guangrui was in front of the store. Before seeing a man selling a golden carp, it happened that his mother was seriously ill and weak, so Chen Guangrui bought the carp and prepared stew soup for Mrs. Zhang to replenish her body. In the blink of an eye, Chen Guangrui was startled and thought that he had encountered something unusual, so he immediately had the idea of ​​releasing the carp.

He also found out from the fisherman that the carp was fished from the nearby Hongjiang Estuary, so he put the carp into the Hongjiang River.

This carp was the Dragon King at the mouth of the Hongjiang River. Later, Chen Guangrui's body sank into the Hongjiang River and was seen by the Dragon King. Thinking of his life-saving grace, the Dragon King put a Dingyan Pearl into Chen Guangrui's mouth to prevent the corpse from decomposing.

The reason why Jiang Muxue boldly let Chen Guangrui go was because he suddenly remembered this paragraph. If Chen Guangrui didn't see the carp seller these mornings, it meant that his future fate had been rewritten.Because there is no one who sells carp, there is no talk about saving the Dragon King of Hongjiangkou, let alone the incident of Chen Guangrui's resurrection, let alone the incident of Tang Monk learning Buddhist scriptures.

Chen Guangrui's eyes lit up when he heard her words, he happily held Jiang Muxue's hand, and thanked him repeatedly.

Chen Guangrui's heart immediately warmed up by the soft, boneless, smooth and fragrant Rouyi. Seeing his eyes, Jiang Muxue immediately became alert. Could it be that Tang Seng in his previous life was conceived in this inn?Just when she was agonizing over whether to find an excuse to leave, the book boy spread the word that Mrs. Zhang's illness seemed to be getting worse.

As soon as the two heard this, they rushed over immediately.The two stayed in Zhang's room for a while before returning to the room.

Zhang's pain was severe, and the high fever persisted. The two of them were entangled in the middle of the night. When they returned to the room, Chen Guangrui was physically and mentally exhausted. Go on.

Jiang Muxue let out a long sigh of relief.

After falling asleep, Chen Guangrui thanked Jiang Muxue with a smile, and said that when he came to Jiangzhou, he would definitely treat her well.

Of course, what he said was more subtle, Jiang Muxue blushed after hearing this, and turned over in a moment, Chen Guangrui just thought she was shy, closed her eyes with a smile, and fell asleep for a while.

After hearing his steady breathing, Jiang Muxue sat up again.

As always, she contacted the Evil Ghost King, but the result still disappointed her.

Early the next morning, when Jiang Muxue opened her eyes, Chen Guangrui was no longer by her side. Jiang Muxue hurriedly got out of bed to look for it. When she inadvertently looked down from the window, she happened to see a fisherman enter the door of Wanhua Shop.

"Not good." She thumped in her heart, and when she cleaned up and went downstairs, Chen Guangrui was bargaining with the fisherman.

Later, he bought the golden carp with all the money.

"Look, ma'am, how well this golden carp is born, it's just for my mother's body."

"Really? Let me take a look." Jiang Muxue walked over with a smile, but she was thinking about what to do next.

"It's better to leave it to my concubine. Although I am not talented, I can still make some soups and side dishes." Jiang Muxue said seriously, even called her by name, and stretched out her hand while talking, Chen Guangrui smiled. The carp was handed over to Jiang Muxue, and he repeatedly praised Jiang Muxue for being virtuous and virtuous.

After getting the carp and entering the back kitchen, Jiang Muxue immediately sneered, no matter if you are a dragon or a fish, if you fall into my hands today, you will be killed.

She decided to stew the carp herself. Without the carp, there would be no Hongjiangkou Dragon King and life-saving grace. In this way, Chen Guangrui's path was still changed.

Just when a certain woman confidently took a knife to scrape the scales of the fish, the eyes of the golden carp blinked immediately, and it was indeed the same fish from the previous life.However, Jiang Muxue was not overwhelmed by his blinking. She acted as if she hadn't seen it. She raised her hand and made a knife. The moment she raised the knife and dropped it, the golden carp suddenly turned into a silver light, and then disappeared without a trace.

Jiang Muxue was in a daze for a long time.

What about fish?

She looked left and right, but she couldn't see her.

After a while, Jiang Muxue sneered, "So I can escape, since I can, why do I have to wait for someone to rescue me? Could it be that the Dragon King of Hongjiangkou also likes to do small tests, just to see how people feel?"

She muttered for a moment, vented her anger, and went back to the front yard.

Upstairs, in Zhang's room, Chen Guangrui was praising Wen Jiao for how virtuous and filial she was, and so on. When Zhang heard that her daughter-in-law was going to cook her own soup, she also kept praising her.

Then Jiang Muxue came in empty-handed. Before the two of them could speak, Jiang Muxue said, "Mother-in-law, husband, I'm afraid I can't drink this carp soup." Then, he told the truth about what happened just now, "...Daughter-in-law saw that The carp blinked, thinking that his eyes were blurred, and when he was about to cut the knife, the carp suddenly disappeared, and there was a silver light in front of my eyes..." At this point, Jiang Muxue looked terrified, and asked Chen Guangrui, "Husband, am I Didn't encounter anything..."

"Oh! A carp blinking. It must not be something to be taken lightly. You should have released it long ago." Just like in the previous life, there was no need for Jiang Muxue to arrange the mystery. Chen Guangrui believed this very much.

"I, didn't I have time to do it in the end..." Jiang Muxue randomly found an excuse to evade the incident. Chen Guangrui was also relieved when he heard that Jiang Muxue didn't hurt the carp in the end.

"Bless the gods! Bless the gods!" Mrs. Zhang hurriedly faced south and north, kowtowed to the air, muttering non-stop.

Tang Seng was not born at this time, so naturally he did not learn scriptures. In the entire Nanbubuzhou, most people, like Zhang, believed in Taoism and did not know Buddha.

Jiang Muxue proposed to Mrs. Zhang that when she recovered from her illness, the two of them would go to the Taoist temple together to make a wish and offer incense, and then set off for Jiangzhou. Mrs. Zhang was satisfied after hearing this.

Chen Guangrui was relieved, and after breakfast, according to what the three of them had agreed, Chen Guangrui set out on the road alone.

But Jiang Muxue was still uneasy.

It stands to reason that Chen Guangrui met the Dragon King, and then his fate in the previous life would go on as before, but the carp was cut off by Jiang Muxue in the end, and she kept threatening to kill the carp, and even at the last moment when she saw the carp, she didn't even blink. Be merciful, so the Dragon King should hate her and regard her as an enemy.

And she is Chen Guangrui's wife, just based on this relationship, the Dragon King will never save Chen Guangrui again.

Even so, history has been rewritten.

Logically, this was indeed the case, but Jiang Muxue just couldn't feel at ease.

It always feels like something is going to happen.
