In Journey to the West, the Heavenly Garden has four gates, the South Heavenly Gate, the North Heavenly Gate, the East Heavenly Gate and the West Heavenly Gate.
The Heavenly Garden is the place where the Jade Emperor, the Queen Mother and the Great Gods live, and the gods and immortals and demons cannot be allowed to enter and exit, so every door of the Heavenly Garden is guarded by the Great Gods.
Sun Wukong is one of the most powerful demons in the Journey to the West, but whether he is making a big fuss in the Heavenly Palace or asking for help from the Heavenly Court on the way to the Scriptures, he only dares to go to the South Heavenly Gate and does not dare to go to the other three Heavenly Gates. Because of the other three heavenly gate gods, he couldn't afford to provoke, and could only hide away.
1. South Tianmen Gate
In the Journey to the West, the Four Heavenly Kings guard the South Heavenly Gate: the Eastern Heavenly King, the Southern Growth Heavenly King, the Western Guangmu Heavenly King, and the Northern Duowen Heavenly King.
These four Heavenly Kings generally do not go to the town to guard the South Heavenly Gate at the same time, but one of the Heavenly Kings takes several subordinates to the town to guard the South Heavenly Gate. The Four Heavenly Kings are all great gods with high magic skills and a certain status in the Heavenly Garden, but Sun Wukong, the Qi Heavenly Great Sage who dares to make a big fuss in the Heavenly Palace, does not take them seriously, nor is he afraid of them, and every time he goes to the Heavenly Garden, he walks from the South Heavenly Gate guarded by the Four Heavenly Kings.
2. East Heavenly Gate
Sun Wukong is in the South Heavenly Gate and can enter and exit freely, but when he arrives at the East Heavenly Gate, he does not dare, because it is Taiyi who guards the East Heavenly Gate to save the suffering Tianzun.
In the Journey to the West, Sun Wukong lives in Dongsheng Shenzhou, he goes to the Heavenly Court, the nearest is also the East Heavenly Gate, but the East Heavenly Gate is near the Miaoyan Palace, where Taiyi saved the Suffering Tianzun, and was guarded by Taiyi To Save the Suffering Tianzun Town, Sun Wukong could not provoke him, so he did not dare to go to the East Heavenly Gate when he went to the Heavenly Court.
Taiyi Saved suffering Tianzun, also known as Qingxuan The Great or Qinghua Emperor, was a benevolent person of great compassion and compassion in the Eastern Paradise World, who was in charge of saving suffering and saving difficulties.
Taiyi Saved the Suffering Heavenly Ancestor was still in the actual control of the Underworld in the Three Realms, and his status in Taoism was very high. Yuan Shi Tianzun praised Taiyi for saving suffering Tianzun as the most noble, holy and spiritual god. Taiyi's rescue of suffering Heavenly Dignity is vast and boundless, far from being comparable to sun wukong and these juniors. In the Journey to the West, Taiyi saved the nine-headed lion on the mount of Suffering Tianzun, who once went down to the netherworld as a demon, so that the four Tang monks and disciples suffered a lot, and finally it was Taiyi who saved the Suffering Tianzun and subdued the evil obstacles, so that he helped the four Tang monks and disciples to tide over the difficulties and continue to travel west to seek the true scriptures.
3. West Heavenly Gate
The West Heavenly Gate is located in West NiuheZhou, near the Lingshan Mountain, where the Buddha lived, so some people think that the Buddha of Rulai is the town keeper of the West Heavenly Gate.
In the Journey to the West, when Sun Wukong made a big fuss in the Heavenly Palace, all the gods and immortals could not help him, but after the Buddha came forward, he pressed Sun Wukong under the Five Elements Mountain, making him unable to move and suffering for 500 years. This made Sun Wukong jealous of the Buddha of Rulai, as well as the ancient Buddhas of the Lingshan Mountain, guanyin bodhisattvas and other Buddhas and bodhisattvas, so he did not dare to go to the West Heavenly Gate. Actually, this is not the case.
If the Buddha is the supreme Buddha of Western Buddhism, the Heavenly Court is the territory of Taoism, and although the relationship between the Buddha and the Taoist family is good, Rulai will not guard the door for the Taoists.
In journey to the West, Sun Wukong often walked to the South Heavenly Gate, but he also went to the West Heavenly Gate twice, and the person who received him was the Heavenly King of the Kingdom. Sun Wukong is not afraid to hold the Kingdom Heavenly King, but in the Gou Chen Shang Palace near the West Heavenly Gate, there lives the Gou Chen Emperor in the Taoist god "Four Emperors", which is a big guy who makes Sun Wukong really afraid. The Taoist "Four Emperors" are the Emperor Ziwei of the Arctic, the Emperor of the Eternal Life of the South Pole, the Emperor of the Gouchen Shanggong, and the Emperor of the Later Tuhuang Who imitated the Heavenly Emperor, who assisted the Jade Emperor in ruling over the gods, stars, spirits, and ten thousand lands, so they were also called "four auxiliaries".
The strength of the Taoist "Four Emperors" is far above Sun Wukong, and Sun Wukong can't afford to provoke them. Emperor Gou Chen was a brother of Emperor Ziwei, and he assisted the Jade Emperor in taking charge of the two poles of the north and the south and the three talents of heaven, earth and man, ruling over the stars, and presiding over the affairs of the military revolution between the two sides. Emperor Gou Chen's spells were unfathomable, and people called him the "God of War" or "God of War", and the stubborn Sun Wukong was also jealous of him and did not dare to go to the West Heavenly Gate.
4. North Heavenly Gate
The North Heavenly Gate is located in The Journey to the West. Ziwei The Great, another of the Taoist "Four Emperors", lived near the North Heavenly Gate, but Emperor Ziwei was not responsible for guarding the North Heavenly Gate, but arranged for another Taoist god, The True Martial Emperor, to go to the town to guard the North Heavenly Gate.
Zhenwu Emperor, also known as Xuantian God, Xuanwu Emperor, and Yousheng Zhenjun, his position in Taoism, although not as good as the Four Emperors, is also a high-status and powerful god. Sun Wukong's mana was inferior to that of Emperor Zhenwu. At the same time, Emperor Zhenwu also had a title, called the Nine Heavenly Demons Heavenly Lord, that is, he was the nemesis of all the demons and ghosts in the world. At first, Sun Wukong was also a demon, so even though Sun Wukong learned to fight clouds and change the seventy-two changes from Bodhi Laozu, he was still quite jealous of the Demon Heavenly Lord.
Sun Wukong was afraid of Emperor Zhenwu and did not dare to offend the nemesis of all the demons in the world, so he went to the heavenly court and did not dare to go to the North Heavenly Gate.
The four great heavenly gates of the Heavenly Garden, the North Heavenly Gate, the East Heavenly Gate and the West Heavenly Gate, which are guarded by taiyi to save the suffering Tianzun, the Emperor Gou Chen and the Zhenwu Emperor, are all big names that Sun Wukong can't afford, so Sun Wukong went to the Heavenly Garden, only dared to pick soft persimmons and pinch, and walked the South Heavenly Gate guarded by the four heavenly kings.
