Introduction: "Journey to the West" is a literary work that every Chinese is particularly familiar with, of which the most influential is the 86th edition of Journey to the West.
It has created a classic image of Tang monks and disciples in our minds. Monkey King should be a character that many people liked when they were young, because he was a hero in it, but as he grew older, many people began to understand other characters.
The Eight Precepts of the Pig, the name of the Dharma is Pig Wu Neng, since receiving the ordination, the five meats and three disgusts have been broken, and Master Tang Sanzang gave him a nickname called "Eight Precepts", so everyone is now generally called the Eight Precepts of the Pig.
Don't look at the fat head and big ears and ugly appearance of the Eight Commandments of the Pig, but when he was young, he also had unlimited scenery. Back then, when he was a mortal.
Dazed, lazy, still have some strength in themselves, often running amok in the townships and towns, and have a little fame. Later, fate took him by chance, and he met his mentor.
【I】
Because the Eight Precepts swore in front of the teacher not to mention his name to others, the Eight Precepts could not tell everyone who his teacher was. When the teacher saw that he had some wisdom roots, he advised him not to fall into mortal dust and kill and create sins.
And teach him the method of monasticism. He was suddenly enlightened, and immediately visited his mentor and asked him to teach him monasticism. Seeing his sincerity, the teacher taught him the secret of monasticism.
After a while, he had a certain amount of cultivation behavior, and he also learned the thirty-six changes of Tiangang, and when the teacher saw him cultivating sincerely, his old man gave him his newly trained Nine Turns great Dan. This greatly improved his cultivation behavior, and soon he was ascending to the Immortal.
On the recommendation of his mentor, he found a position within the system of the Heavenly Court, when the Jade Emperor also set up a banquet, feasted on the immortals, and held a ceremony to award titles, the Jade Emperor awarded him the Marshal of the Canopy, in charge of the 80,000 water army, and also gave him the Treasure Qin Golden Palladium on the artifact, that is, the Nine-Tooth Nail Rake, which was the peak of his life at that time.
Marshal Tianpeng had a smooth sailing and quiet years in those years, and when he was busy, he trained the water army, went out on a mission, and in his spare time, he could also ride a pegasus to visit the Tianhe River and admire the sun, moon, and stars.
At that time, he could be regarded as a young man, and there were people following him in and out, and he was famous in Xian'e. Unfortunately, "no one has a thousand days, no flowers are red", and his peaceful life was broken by the appearance of Sun Monkey.
In those years, the heavenly court was calm and uneventful. But he knew that there was some undercurrent in it, and friends who had worked in the system must understand it.
At the beginning, everyone didn't take the plague monkey's fuss seriously, but that Bow Ma Wen was inching forward, getting bigger and bigger, and the Jade Emperor found that the people below were not very attentive at work, and the contradiction was magnified by such a monkey. Some people also threw the Jade Emperor around, saying that there must be someone behind it.
Later, in order to test Rulai, the Jade Emperor asked him to come to help. Of course, Rulai lowered Sun Monkey three times and divided two by two, and pressed him down at the foot of the Five Finger Mountain.
The matter was solved, but some of the problems exposed this time made the Great Leader Jade Emperor have a mustard in his heart and needed to re-establish his authority.
The old pig didn't understand these things when he was young, thinking that things would be over and he could relax. After drinking two more glasses of wine at the peach banquet of the Queen Mother's mother, I also blamed my own greedy cup, and after the alcohol was in my stomach, the desire that had been suppressed for a long time finally broke out.
He actually ran to the Guanghan Palace and met Chang'e, who had been thinking about each other for a long time, and it was the wine that strengthened the bear's guts and pulled Chang'e to do something non-divided. As a result, he was caught by the patrolling guards.

This style problem was just used as a model, in fact, it was not a crime to death, but the Jade Emperor wanted to give others a decision and sentenced him to a decisive decision.
Fortunately, there was a good friend Taibai Venus to help intercede, instead of hitting two thousand hammers, expelling the immortals, and degrading the mortal world, but the result was that the fetus of the wild boar was mistakenly cast, becoming the appearance it is now.
In the years after he was degraded, he was very depressed and depressed, thinking that not long ago he was the head of the 80,000 water army, but now he had become this ghost. He disobeyed, roaring at the injustice of fate. He became a youkai in Fuling Mountain and named himself Pig Gang mane.
He wants revenge on the world, he eats passers-by. But these did not make him happy, but it would make him lost and sink, at that time he was thinking, just sink like this, anyway, the world is like this, he is dead to the system of the heavenly court.
Later, the Wuchao Zen master of Futu Mountain also advised him to practice with him, and he could return to the Immortal Class in the next day, to tell the truth, he had already seen through the people in the Heavenly Garden, and it was not interesting.
Later, Guanyin Bodhisattva wanted to go to the Western Heavenly Scripture Collector, passing by Fuling Mountain, and seeing him in such a situation, he was kind and recommended him to participate in the sutra collection project, saying that after the event was completed, he could enter the Buddhist system. He thought it might be a good choice. From then on he began to take vows, waiting for someone to take the scriptures.
That day he received a notice saying that Gao Laozhuang was recruiting a son-in-law for his youngest daughter, and he had met that Cuilan, who was really beautiful and not inferior to the xian'e in the sky. This again aroused the old pig's thoughts. As soon as the spirit moved, he turned into a handsome boy to apply, and of course he was caught.
In those three years, his old pig did not contribute less, helped the Gao family to do a lot of work, and made the Gao family business bigger and bigger. The people in the family still like it.
Cuilan was also good to him, he thought about it for the rest of his life. But blame him for this mouth, in addition to gluttony, but also several sips of wine. That day, I drank too much, and the prototype appeared, which frightened the Gao family.
His husband was clamoring to get out of the marriage, but he didn't do it, and it was hard to get such a good wife. So he cast a spell to lock up Cuilan, and he came to her every day.
One day, he came to his wife Cuilan as usual, but there was a goddamn Bow Ma Wen, who was really an enemy and was extremely red-eyed. The reason why he is like this is that this sun monkey has a lot to do with it.
He wanted to beat him up, but unfortunately he didn't have enough kung fu to beat him a bit. Later, he heard from Sun Monkey's mouth that he was an apprentice of the Scripture Taker, and he immediately revealed his identity and went with him to meet the master. Alas, this is really a creation, and this Bow Ma Wen has actually become his master brother.
【III】
After leaving Gao Laozhuang, he went with Tang Monk to learn the scriptures, and his duty was to be responsible for picking up the burden. Here I would like to state that on the way to take the scriptures, picking luggage has always been the eight precepts of the pig, and Master Sha is responsible for leading the horse, which is not like what is said in the film and television drama.
You must think that the Eight Precepts are delicious and lazy. The way to learn the scriptures is a play prepared by The Old Master of Rulai, he is to test his master Tang Monk and Sun Wukong, and fighting monsters is his Task of Sun Wukong, so he will not go out of this head.
Moreover, the Buddha would certainly not let his master die, so since they intended it, the Eight Precepts would follow suit.
It's just that he still looks down on Sun Wukong very badly, and he feels great because he is a master brother and is responsible for fighting monsters, and he often bullies him.
Therefore, he would make a small report in front of the master as soon as he had the opportunity, and this Monkey Sun often asked him to help fight the hands, so sometimes he also contributed to beat the monsters, and in the past fourteen years, he had killed a total of seven monsters. You must know that many monsters on this road have backgrounds, and this indicator is not low.
There was no danger in taking the scriptures along the way, and they also finally obtained the true scriptures. In the end, when the Buddha was commended, the protagonists were Master Tang Monk and Sun Wukong, and they both became Buddhas.
And his old pig as a hard to accompany the way, the Buddha only said that he picked up the merits, rewarded him with the position of a pure altar messenger, the world originally had no absolute fairness, he also confessed his fate.
Now that he has also looked away, his work is relatively idle, and there are more offerings in the mortal world, and he basically does not worry about eating. But sometimes I still inadvertently think of Chang'e and Cuilan. But he has taken refuge in the Three Jewels, and those things are buried in his heart as memories.
【Conclusion】
In short, the Western Heavens take the scriptures, on the strength of the force, I think it is the Eight Precepts of the Pig, because a detail of the 86 version of "Journey to the West" plays the sand monk to pick the burden, so that everyone is wrong to blame the Eight Precepts of the Pig for not doing anything.
