"Journey to the West" has a total of 100 times, and the main plot is that Tang Seng went west to learn the scriptures all the way to subdue demons, and after 9981 difficulties to get the right thing.

The rich fantasy imagination is the core reason why "Journey to the West" attracts countless readers!

In addition to this, other places are not liked by young people with little experience, but they think that "Journey to the West" is more and more simple to write, and the more it is written, the more boring it becomes, and even full of contradictions.

Only readers with sufficient experience can see all kinds of deep ideas in "Journey to the West" through the surface, and even those that they think are contradictions, they also think they are reasonable.

Of course, everyone looks at the problem from a different perspective and thinks about the problem in different ways, so there are all kinds of "reasonable" interpretations, which are varied.

Take the contradiction that Sun Wukong's strength is not suitable before and after, readers have countless explanations.

"There is a saying that a strong dragon is difficult to suppress the head snake, when there is a lot of trouble in the heavenly palace, Sun Wukong is the identity of the troublemaker, and he has to protect Tang Seng everywhere on the way to learn the scriptures. It's much easier to mess with than to defend. ”

"The monster is too cunning, Sun Wukong can't guard against it!"

"Pressed under the Wuzhi Mountain for five hundred years, drinking copper juice and molten iron every day, cultivation is degenerate!"

"Don't you understand if you don't work hard? Sun Monkey has been pressed by Rulai for 500 years, drinking copper juice and molten iron every day, and protecting people who learn scriptures? Is there still such a generous person in the world? Don't be so naïve, okay? If he wasn't afraid that Rulai would press him with Wuzhi Mountain again, Sun Monkey would definitely beat Tang Seng to death with a stick, what else could he take! ”

"Sun Wukong's strength has not been strong, okay? The reason why Sun Wukong thinks that Sun Wukong is powerful is just an illusion caused by making trouble in the heavenly palace. As for making trouble in the Heavenly Palace? It's just a joke! A lot of powerful immortals haven't come out, right? The immortals who came out also didn't work hard, right? Look at Taishang Laojun, the two boys took the purple gold gourd and made Sun Wukong want to die, not to mention Taishang Laojun's mount Qingniu, who almost defeated the entire Heavenly Court and Buddhism with King Kong, but you see when Sun Wukong made trouble in the Heavenly Palace. Did Taishang Laojun use these magic weapons? Not at all! ”

"When there was a lot of trouble in the Heavenly Palace, Sun Wukong's force value was not high, as if there was an envoy Wang Lingguan who had a tie with him."

"Can terrorists and bodyguards compare? The lawlessness of the terrorists is of course powerful, but once they are on the shore, they wash their hands and become bodyguards. You see if he's tied. It's called institutionalization! ”

The atmosphere of the Spring Festival is the strongest on this day, and most people begin to celebrate the New Year happily and lively.

Cao Wei, who had returned to his hometown for the New Year, was full of emotion at the computer at twelve o'clock at noon. On the computer screen, the official website of Red Star Media is displayed, and the content of the last episode of "Journey to the West" clearly appears on it.

"Vivid, a classic, the first god and demon novel in China!" Cao Wei gave his evaluation of "Journey to the West".

Although all kinds of contradictions fill the whole novel, and many doubts are not explained, Cao Wei feels it. None of this detracts from the classics of "Journey to the West"!

Looking at the comments of netizens on the Internet on "Journey to the West", Cao Wei saw a lot of netizens who gave very high praise. Even well-known Internet influencers, real-life celebrities, and official mouthpieces.

"Imagination beyond imagination!"

"The classics are unquestionable!"

"It's a very profound novel of gods and demons, and I know at least a few things. First, don't touch the leader's four-person things casually, you can't run away if you see it, for example, Sun Wukong sees a certain pink and cute hat, and the result is a tight spell. Tragedy; Second, the ability is not as high as the backstage, look at those monsters with a backstage, the backstage appeared when Sun Wukong was about to die; Third, if you don't have the ability, you can please the leader to get benefits. For example, Zhu Bajie; Fourth, if you don't have the ability and can't please the leader, then work hard and complain, so that the leader can't do without you, such as Sha Seng ......"

"Journey to the West is a novel that can better help us understand the fate of life and the gods and demons of creation!"

……

The well-known Internet V "Zhou Ping": ""Journey to the West" is a masterpiece with profound realist critical significance created by using romantic expression. It weaves superhuman myths with strange imagination, which fascinates the majority of readers; At the same time, the story is a metaphor for the rich content of social life, thus giving the work a high ideological and artistic value! ”

Tang Xianzong, professor of the Department of Chinese at Modu University: "The emergence of "Journey to the West" has opened up a new category of gods and demons novels. The book's clever combination of good-natured ridicule, spicy irony and serious criticism will be a new direction for the development of satirical fiction in the future. It is also solemn and harmonious, full of fun, literary, artistic, and entertaining, and it is a very good popular novel. Even to put it mildly, "Journey to the West" can be called the peak of Chinese long-form romantic novels! ”

Qiu Ping, President of Beijing University: "Journey to the West, written by Stephen Zhao, contains profound content about Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism, and it is a mythological work with the meaning of resisting feudal rule. The joys, sorrows, and sorrows of monsters and immortals are close to human feelings, so everyone likes to watch them. ”

……

"Yangcheng Daily": ""Journey to the West" has a novel imagination, going to heaven and earth, and it can be said that it has reached the peak of perfection. The personalities of the main characters are also extremely distinct, and they have the widest readership, suitable for all ages. This book has very few side effects, and it is an inspiring book that inspires people to actively fight, never lose heart, and persevere in order to achieve their goals! ”

"Magic City Weekly": "The description of the story in the whole book of "Journey to the West" is full of humor and humor, which gives readers a strong interest. ”

"People's Daily": "The theme of "Journey to the West" is through the story of Sun Wukong's havoc in the Heavenly Palace and the protection of Tang monks to learn scriptures from the West, and through Sun Wukong's various behaviors and struggles, it reflects reality in a tortuous form of illusion, so as to praise the working people's resistance to power, violence, contempt for the authority of the ruling class, and resolutely fight against the ruling class, expose and criticize the ugly nature of the ruling class, and show the strong confidence of the working people in overcoming difficulties in the struggle and the great courage to conquer nature! ”

……

Sure enough, what kind of position you are, the words you say are the taste of which position! The ass decides the head! Looking at all kinds of comments, Cao Wei was silent for a long time.

Subsequently, Cao Wei also wrote a long comment according to his own ideas: "Everyone is born to live in the network of social relations, Sun Wukong is different, he is born and raised, and he is not bound by anything, so he is free, so he acts unscrupulously, so he quickly violated the original social rules." The Dragon King and the King of Hades all went to sue, and then the Jade Emperor was going to crusade against Sun Wukong, because people who violated social rules were not allowed to exist, just like those who messed around. At the beginning, the Jade Emperor adopted the method of recruiting An, and Sun Wukong also agreed. But it should be noted that Sun Wukong has always been free, he has no concept of social relations, let alone the concept of social hierarchy, so he is also very happy to be Bi Ma Wen. But when he understood the social hierarchy, he was unhappy and couldn't stand it anymore, so he began to rebel...... A country, with nearly 1.4 billion people, can only have one president, and if you can't be the one, you will rebel, can this work? Definitely not, the society will be in chaos......"

After writing for about half an hour, Cao Wei sent his long review titled "The Contradiction Between Rules and Freedom" to "Journey to the West".

After a while, he refreshed it, and immediately saw many people like it, which made him very happy.

"Wei Zi, what are you still doing up there? Hurry down and eat dumplings, otherwise it will be cold in a while. Mother Yang Yu's loud voice rang downstairs.

Cao Wei woke up suddenly, and hurriedly responded, "I'll come down now", then turned off the computer, trotted downstairs, and ate dumplings with his family.

Eating dumplings at noon on the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve is already a custom that does not distinguish between north and south. Although Cao Wei's family is from the south, the custom has changed from noodles to dumplings over the years.

Compared to noodles, dumplings are delicious, not only with various flavors of filling, but also very simple and convenient to cook, boil the water and throw the dumplings down, and they will be cooked in a few minutes, and then they can be eaten. Unlike noodles, when cooked, you have to put oil, salt, and other condiments.

The hot dumplings were bitten in his mouth, his lips trembled, and the tip of his tongue trembled, but the fragrant and fatty pork with green onions made Cao Wei unable to bear to let go.

This feeling is really painful and happy!

Readily!

Cao Wei eats a lot of food, one bite at a time, in just four or five minutes, he eats more than 20 of them, and his mouth is full of oil and red light.

When a pot of dumplings was finished, Cao Wei's stomach was bulging and round, which made his originally excited face suddenly collapse, and he said with a sad face: "It's miserable, I didn't pay attention all of a sudden, I ate too much!" ”

"Hahaha...... Brother, if you continue to eat like this, you will definitely become a pig! Sister Cao Zhenzhen grinned.

Cao Wei was furious: "Nonsense, did you say this about your brother?" Do you want to spend money on the New Year this year? ”

Cao Zhenzhen hurriedly laughed and said: "My brother is not Zhu Bajie, my brother is Sun Wukong, the Monkey King with great powers and vigorous skills!" ”

Cao Wei burst into tears: "Are you praising me or burying me?" With my physique, with my gentle character, is it still Sun Wukong? It's almost the same as being a sand monk! ”

"Hahaha......" Cao Zhenzhen laughed.

"You're about to get married, and you're giggling when you're fine, like a child!" Father Cao patted his daughter's head dotingly, and suddenly proposed: "How about our family go to the cinema to watch a movie together after the New Year tomorrow?" ”

Yang Yu said: "What movie do you have nothing to watch?" ”

Cao Zhenzhen said: "Dad, how did you come up with the idea of going to the movies?" ”

Cao Wei's heart moved when he heard this, and said with a smile: "Dad, if you don't say it, I forgot, tomorrow Xing Ye's movie "Heaven and Dragon Slayer: Demon Sect Master" will be released nationwide. Go and see, we all go as a family, it's a rare opportunity! (To be continued......)
