Regarding the grievances of the Romance of the Gods and the two books of Journey to the West, let's talk about some more. Obviously, Lao Wu's Journey to the West is part of it specifically for you to become a god, aren't you advocating Taoism to win over Confucianism and belittle Confucianism, let's expose you from all aspects, so that everyone can see what the real Taoism is all about?

Lao Wu is relatively fair and objective, but it is more obscure, and he has also criticized some scum and people of Confucianism, and even criticized the emperors and princes, but he still has hopes and expectations for them. It's a pity that Lao Wu saw the stubborn void and wanted to break it, but Rao was so talented that he couldn't do it, and he didn't have a chance or a fundamental way. This is to break the stubborn void and have to Wukong, in the end, it is still the wall of the Anzhu kiln head adobe water fishing for the moon, only into empty ears, how not to make people worry about the ancients for the ancients to be sad.

Let's discuss the matter of the dragon king later, and now we will continue to talk nonsense. In the seventh chapter of Journey to the West, the great sage escaped from the gossip furnace, and the ape was determined under the Five Elements Mountain. Sun Wukong was tied to the demon subduing pillar, but he was invulnerable to fire and thunder. Taishang Laojun suggested that he send it to himself to open the furnace for alchemy and recycling. As for Yang Jian, the Jade Emperor only gave some food and drink, and he didn't mention a word about his promotion, and sent him back to irrigate Jiangkou, Erlang God was dissatisfied, and he had to be grateful.

Taishang Laojun was very suspicious at this time, untied the rope of the great sage, put the instrument that pierced the pipa bone, and then pushed it into the gossip furnace, and did not use his own three-flavor true fire, but the light smoked the monkey with a fiery eye, seven seven and forty-nine days later, without investigation, he opened the furnace to take the pill, and Sun Wukong took the opportunity to run out, and drove the old man away with a whole upside-down green onion.

This old gentleman is a little too inferior, but this shows that there is a problem. Taishang Laojun must know the secret of this monkey, the background and the origin of something. But he is pretending to be deaf and dumb, and he seems to be making trouble but making trouble, a typical old treacherous and cunning scheming, making money, and hiding deeply, and sitting firmly in the second golden position in this book.

Sun Wukong held back for many days, and the monkey was furious, knocking randomly with a mallet, and once again making trouble in the heavenly palace. But the next three poems explain the background of Sun Wukong's origin, and finally say that Vientiane returns to the truth from the same reason, such as coming to live in Shuanglin, the mystery is quite mysterious, and I will talk about it later.

Sun Wukong tossed all the way, and hit the outside of the Lingxiao Treasure Palace, surrounded by dozens of immortals, but he was not afraid, and used the ability of three heads and six arms to turn into three golden hoop sticks, turning and dancing in circles. Yuantuotuo, the light is scorching, how can people learn from the ages? You can't burn when you enter the fire, how can you drown when you enter the water? A mani pearl is bright, and the sword and halberd can't be injured. He can also be good or evil, and the good and evil in front of him are up to him. When it is good, it becomes a Buddha and an immortal, and the evil place is covered with hair and horns.

The poems in this show that monkeys and Buddhism have a lot of chance. Don't explain anything else too early, let's talk about the fur and horns. The general understanding is that animals, but this is an allusion, Taoism has a hairy rhinoceros, Buddhism is as particular as a horned tiger, originally this is the proud beast of the two families, hehe, to Lao Wu here, what is it referring to?

But pay attention to this poem, the first time you look at it, it's all sorts, and the second time, hey, Mani Zhu, isn't it? No, what the hell is it? With random speculation, I looked for it in the back, until the fourteenth time, and sure enough, the answer was given in the book. It is written that the Dharma Body Buddha has no appearance, and a round light contains all things. Let's take a look at the current monkey, which is three heads and six arms plus three wishful golden hoops and sticks flying in groups.

Ruyi golden hoop stick, how does the Dragon King of the East China Sea evaluate, hold some and die, knock some and die; Is it so powerful? Why do many monsters love and fear the golden hoop stick? Even Sun Wukong was later accepted by the green bull with a diamond bracelet after the golden hoop stick, somersaulted and escaped with his life, and lost his claim in a hazy way. Tears fell in his eyes, but now there is no scepter, how can he prosper with empty fists and bare feet!

In the last book, Caesar mentioned that the total weight of Emperor Jiajing's reward to Tao Zhongwen was 13,500 catties, which was exactly the same as the weight of this wishful golden hoop stick. The law set by Zhu Yuanzhang is a capital crime for officials who embezzle sixty taels of silver. Everyone also understands that the weapon of the unremitting struggle of Sun Monkey, which we envied in our childhood, is actually money in Lao Wu's mind!!

......

However, the Jade Emperor can see it at a glance, oh...... So it was, so so, so he sent a decree to ask Rulai to surrender the demon monkey. Many people don't have a good opinion of the Jade Emperor, thinking that he is incompetent or something, and I also agree with this. However, Caesar still put such a character with many shortcomings as the Jade Emperor in the book Journey to the West, and the most high-level immortals were on the top spot. The prototype or soul of the Jade Emperor, Lao Wu must have put Emperor Longqing into it. This is an important basis for Caesar's insistence that the Journey to the West was written between 1572 and 1582.

Rulai quickly took two apprentices to the order, saw Sun Wukong and introduced himself, and pretended not to know, asking the origin of the monkey or something.

Sun Wukong hasn't Wukong yet, where to take this Rulai to heart, but let Rulai teach a lesson, and finally reminded him that it's a pity that the poisoner is sorry. Sun Wukong didn't understand or care at all now, so he agreed to bet on somersaults with Rulai. It wasn't until 500 years later that I understood a lot of the before and after, and I knew that Rulai had coaxed me, and even knew a little bit of my true colors. But what is the coaxing? What is the true face of the Monkey King? Caesar can only say that this is too complicated for now.

Not surprisingly, he lost, but was crushed under the Five Elements Mountain. But the monkey has a saying, everyone should pay attention, there is a magic of an unknown prophet, I will never believe it! I don't believe it! What is this for, this is the old man Wu telling us through the monkey's mouth that there is no unknown prophet in the world at all, it is all a lie.

The demon monkey was suppressed here, and an antiy conference was held in the sky, and if he still respected the Jade Emperor on the surface, he didn't dare to disobey, and he called himself an old monk, but in front of the monkey, he was sour, jealous and hateful. But Rulai is generally very satisfied, this time it was not in vain, the main purpose was achieved, and by the way, it also narrowed the superficial relationship with Heavenly Court, and gained more popularity. At the same time, Lao Wu is also informing us that this Buddhism has begun to raise its head again, and many people in the court and the central government are going to defect to the semi-defectors, and even come to see the actual master.

If you come to eat and take, but you don't know if you eat meat, that is, dragon liver and phoenix marrow, I didn't say. Returning home with a full load, call a joy. posted a six-character mantra on Wuzhi Mountain again, which completely shocked the monkeys. What does this six-character mantra mean, there are a lot of sayings, each is different, Caesar's understanding is that the Buddha and I are together, if you have to translate it in order, it is good, wishful, auspicious, Buddha.

If you are hungry, let you eat iron pills and drink copper juice when you are thirsty, reflect on it, and release it later. This is the enjoyment that the Buddhists think should go to hell can only have it, but this is arranged as it is, the purpose is to let the monkey feel good, anyway, after coming out, Sun Wukong has changed, and has completely become a two-faced monkey, is it good or evil, virtuous or stupid? I can't say clearly, the monkeys before this are based on instinctive preferences to do things, not very fond of using the brain to think about problems. Indeed, after 500 years of pressure, Sun Wukong has realized a lot of simple emptiness.

Then he talked about the eighth journey to the west, tried to ask about the Zen pass, and asked for countless references, often ending up in old age. Grinding bricks for mirrors, snow for food, lost for many years?

The iron pestle may be sharpened into a needle, and the water droplets can also pierce the stone, the bricks can be used as mirrors to make people laugh, and the snow can be used as food to starve to death.

If you come back from the joy and ride the auspicious clouds, I will look at the Three Realms with a very deep sense of the ways that greet you. The fundamental primordial is extinguished after all. Like the void, there is nothing. Ambushing a good monkey is a matter of ignorance, the beginning of life and death, and the law is the same.

Well, this old Wu is too funny. The original text of the Buddhist scripture is that I have contemplated the Three Realms with a very deep Prajna. Fundamental detachment, after all, extinction. Like the void, there is nothing...... The name of life and death begins, and the law is the same.

One speaks of the original, and the other speaks of separation. Lao Wu is too talented, praise and applaud. So what exactly does Nyolai mean, purely from the analysis of Nyolai's words, it is like this. I have seen all over the Three Realms with great wisdom, except for Sun Wukong, I can't find the second fundamental origin, just the monkey has the most primitive root, the root of the coexistence of good and evil.

After listening to it, everyone celebrated the Buddha's success.

At the end of the opening poem, it is mentioned that the Three Treasures of the Dragon King are seen, and in the next verse of the poem, it is mentioned that the Dragon Palace Dharma Realm is used. This shows that Buddhism, like Taoism, has a dragon culture, and I will talk about it later.

Although Xizhou doesn't know the years, but Rulai is still not confused, I know that after a long period of about five hundred years, everyone will get together, the Bon Festival, this good man and woman have offered so many good things, and everyone should have a good time.

You can't just eat, the Bodhisattva offers poems, such as talking about the root stream. As he spoke, he turned the spearhead and introduced the customs of the four continents, which is a classic commentary.

In the end, Rulai said his actual thoughts, to pass on the scriptures to Nanzhou, after so many years of Taoguang cultivation, it is time to attack. But we can't take the initiative to attack too clearly, and we have to let a representative from Nanzhou come over to learn from the experience, but we have to send someone with magic to go over to Nanzhou first.

When Guanyin heard this, he circled around Rulai three times, and I went to give Ti a slip.

If you come to be happy, this Guanyin is exquisite, and generally anyone can fool you, and it is none other than you. Go, to explore all kinds of virtual and real along the road, there are five kinds of treasures, you shake candy in one hand and ** stick in the other, find someone to learn from the scriptures, and then touch a few demon helpers, just adapt to the situation and look at it.

Guanyin seemed to understand, but in fact, he was confused, so he also took his apprentice Muzha down the mountain, met the Yuzhenguan Jinding Immortal, briefly explained the reason, and left half-clouded and half-foggy.

There is very little description in the book, but it is quite a key point. Guanyin expects that the scripture learner will come in two or three years, but in fact, it took 5,040 days, and Buddhism 360 days a year, which is also 14 years. Even if it is undecided, it will only be six years to double the surplus, but this is too much.

Look carefully, this gold-topped immortal lives in the Jade True Temple, and it is obviously a Taoist priest. Guanyin was stunned by the offering of tea, and he was in a hurry to do things for the Buddha, and unintentionally revealed the secret. This Jinding Daxian is a double spy, and he is responsible for collecting and transmitting information in both aspects, and the Jade True Temple is an office of Heavenly Court in Lingshan. You see, Rulai is clear in his heart, but such things are normal and cannot be broken. When eating, drinking, and holding a meeting, I didn't invite Jinding Daxian to participate, but I didn't want Guanyin to have this awareness, so I was in a hurry and didn't want to say anything.

When I heard this, this gold-topped immortal heard it, huh? Buddhism has to make a big move? When I was angry, I was angry, oh, don't ask me to participate when you eat and drink, Guanyin, you won't bring some melon seeds when you come over, and you still know that you will be polite and let you drink tea. Are you doing this? You are unkind and unjust, regardless of the size of the matter, hurry up and take the time to report to the Taishang Laojun and them, and they can be regarded as having completed some task indicators, and maybe they can still be rewarded for meritorious service.

It is also said that Guanyin's master and apprentice came to the quicksand river first, met the sand monk, fought a fight, accepted Guanyin's fool, and agreed to the conditions, who wants to suffer in this old man, not to mention that he still wants to have a future.

Then I walked, and when I arrived at Fuling Mountain, I met Zhu Bajie, and I had a fight, and like Sha Seng, I also said part of my life experience and accepted the conditions.

But from the mouths of Sha Seng and Bajie, we know that these two only want to change their situation at present, and they are dreaming of at least restoring the scenery of the past. But the words are pointed out, and any kind of person in Buddhism dares to accept it.

The third met the third prince of the Jade Dragon, the son of Ao Yan, the Dragon King of the West Sea, and he will be slaughtered soon. Guanyin hurriedly went to heaven to intercede, spared the jade dragon, and prepared to be a foot force for the later scripture learners.

But this place is quite suspicious, this jade dragon is not quite the same as the sand monk Bajie. Sha Seng Bajie was degraded to the lower realm early after committing the crime, and the heavenly general holding the jade dragon seems to be waiting here, and there must be an edict from the Jade Emperor.

Moreover, when Rulai first instructed Guanyin, he did not consider the strength of his feet, and he was only ready to let Tang Seng accept a few apprentices, and Guanyin made his own opinion. And the Jade Emperor wants to slaughter the Jade Dragon, where is it not good, do you have to be on the way to Guanyin? It seems that the Jade Emperor has received a small report from the Golden Peak Daxian, and it happens that the father and son of the Ao family have a conflict, so they will put the Jade Dragon on the road, verify the accuracy of the information, and see if Guanyin is coming. But let's also add some mess, at least for you to spend more than ten years.

Now it's time to tell the story of the Dragon King. In our 5,000-year-old culture, the image of the dragon is deeply ingrained, and there are too many true dragons and descendants of dragons.

But what is this dragon? Actually, many animals in totem worship put it together. At first, it didn't look good at all, but then gradually various factors were added to it, and it was quite complicated.

According to a very early record, the dragon turned into a dragon in 500 years, and the dragon turned into a dragon in a thousand years. There are scales called dragons, winged dragons, horned dragons, hornless dragons, and dragons that have not ascended to the sky. By the time of the Ming Dynasty, it was basically stereotyped, Li Shizhen's explanation, the dragon scale insect is long. Wang Fu said that its shape is like nine likes: the head is like a cow, the horns are like a deer, the eyes are like a shrimp, the ears are like an elephant, the neck is like a snake, the belly is like a snake, the scales are like a fish, the claws are like a phoenix, and the palm is like a tiger. It has eighty-one scales on its back, with nine or nine yang numbers. Its sound is like a copper plate. There is a beard next to the mouth, a pearl under the chin, and an inverted scale under the throat. There is Boshan on the head, also known as the ruler wood, and the dragon cannot ascend to heaven without the ruler wood. It can turn into water and fire.

Li Shizhen's "Compendium of Materia Medica" was compiled in 1552, the 31st year of Jiajing, and finalized in 1578, the sixth year of Wanli in the Ming Dynasty. The Journey to the West quotes a lot of its content, which also shows that the book Journey to the West will definitely not come out earlier than 1552.

But people also have dragons in Buddhism, and the so-called dragons in ancient India are actually similar to the big cobras, and later they have changed their appearance. Guanyin later plucked the pearl under the jaw of the third prince of the jade dragon, sawed the horns, and retreated the scales. Later, after Buddhism was introduced to China from the Western Regions, the cobra was translated into a dragon, so that it was quickly understood. But this cobra had a king in India, and in China during the Han Dynasty, dragons were divided into black, white, yellow, red, and green, and there was no king at first.

Later, it was interesting, and gradually Taoism and Buddhism recognized a new thing, the Dragon King, which refers to the Dragon King that most people in China now understand, is both Taoist and Buddhism, but it is limited to this definition, what does it look like, you say yours, he pulls his.

So now the third prince of the jade dragon saved by Guanyin is the quintessence of the eight classics - a typical Chinese little white dragon. His father is Ao Yan, the Dragon King of the West Sea, and now he says that he was accused of disobedience because he set fire to the pearl in the palace, and was played by Ao Yan as the Jade Emperor.

But in the forty-third chapter of the book, the Dragon King of the West Sea changed his name to Ao Shun, and changed his name to the Dragon King of the North Sea, and the prince of the West Sea Prince was called Mo Ang.

In the last round, as far as I said, it was Yulong who disobeyed his father's orders and committed the crime of unfilial piety.

Interesting, is it a clerical error? Definitely not, so what's the mystery in this? If you listen to Moang's name, you know that it means it's an Indian dragon name. This seems to be the battle between the two families of Buddhism and Taoism about the future throne of the dragon, and the jade dragon is just a victim. But if we look at the history of the Ming Dynasty, the battle for the throne between Ming Yingzong (reigned twice) and Ming Dynasty, as well as the dispute between the princes of their descendants, we can understand what Lao Wu is alluding to here, so it is not difficult to know who the soul of the jade dragon is.

also returned to the book, and finally Guanyin and Muzha came to the foot of Wuzhi Mountain, Sun Wukong actually knew the Bodhisattva, when did he know, there must not have been mentioned in the book before, such as the first time he saw his true appearance before.

At this time, Sun Wukong had already realized some emptiness, and many things were a little remembered, and some things in his previous life were also remembered a little. This Monkey King is the reincarnation of a high-ranking figure in Buddhism.

The great sage sees the nature of the mind and returns to Buddhism, and this bodhisattva cares about visiting the holy monks.

Seeing the nature of the mind, the book later mentioned several places, this point of view was put forward by the Zen sect born from the Sinicized Buddhist sect, and it has nothing to do with the content of the real Xuanzang master Xitian Sutra in history.

Sun Wukong naturally wanted to take refuge in the original, and he happily agreed to Guanyin's conditions.

Guanyin and his apprentices continued to Chang'an, stayed, and did not let them reveal a trace of information about the land of Chenghuang, if you want to know how to find people who learn scriptures, please listen to the nonsense next time.
