Rather than be cursed, Goku will also kill the White Bone Spirit to see what his Fire Eye Golden Eye has found
The reason for the sutra in "Journey to the West"
As we all know, "Journey to the West" tells the story of the Tang monks and disciples who experienced 9981 difficulties and went to the Western Heavens to worship the Buddha and ask for scriptures. In the end, they achieved the Great Enlightenment Sutra, and all five people (including the White Dragon Horse) became "holy".
In this sutra collection, the purpose of the five people is also different, Tang Monk went to the Western Heavens to learn the scriptures, because the Tang King promised him to give him a "rich reward" after his return, and also recognized him as a "royal brother", as the saying goes, taking people soft and eating people's mouths short, in this case, Tang Monk began to learn the scriptures.
Like Xiao Bailong, Sun Wukong, Pig Eight Precepts, and Sha Wujing, the four people are in order to get rid of some disasters and achieve a new life, while protecting the Tang monks and the Western Heavens to learn the scriptures is just able to achieve their own goals.
Even the Buddha, and Tang Taizong, who supported the great cause of taking the sutras had their own purposes, such as the Buddha's purpose of propagating his teachings, and Tang Taizong's to atone for his sins (Xuanwumen killing his brothers).
In general, although the "Western HeavenLy Scriptures" is only a process, the people and interests involved behind it are not only the four Tang monks and disciples, it can be said that many big men in the Three Realms are paying attention to this matter.
It is precisely because of this that the process of learning the scriptures will go through 9981 difficulties, full of ups and downs and twists and turns. At the same time, the game of major interest groups also makes the story in the process of learning the scriptures very exciting.
Some were rescued, some were killed
Regarding "Journey to the West", many people now know that there is an "unspoken rule" in it, and many of the monsters with backgrounds in the heavenly court in the novel are not killed in the end, but the master behind him is saved.
In the Battle of Shi Huoling, Sun Wukong and others encountered the three people of the Green Lion White Elephant and the Golden-winged Dapeng Eagle, which was the most difficult level for Sun Wukong to pass. At that time, not only Tang Monk was almost eaten, but even Goku was almost killed.
Even after committing such a crime, the White Elephant of the Green Lion was finally recovered by manjushri and Puxian, two bodhisattvas, which was equivalent to saving it. The Golden-winged Eagle was also surrendered by Rulai, and even though he made a big fuss about the Spirit Mountain, he was not executed.
Of course, in addition to these rescued people, there are also some people who have been killed, and the people who were killed do not seem to have much background. For example, when the four masters and apprentices passed through che chi guo, they encountered the three great immortals of yang, deer and tiger.
Although these three people are highly powerful and also believe in Taoism, because there is no powerful figure behind them, they are finally killed by Goku, which can be said to be quite miserable three people, sad and lamentable.
However, a "Journey to the West" is not summed up in just a few words (some people were saved, some people were killed). As the saying goes, art comes from life and is higher than life, and when Wu Cheng'en wrote "Journey to the West", some stories have another deep meaning behind them.
The bridge section of "three dozen white bone essences" is something that many people like to hear, and it is also very interesting. However, in this section, Sun Wukong's mana was obviously higher than that of the White Bone Essence, but he had used his hands three times to kill her.
At the same time, in order to completely eradicate the White Bone Essence, Goku not only endured the pain of the Tight Hoop Spell three times, but finally broke with Tang Monk. So, why did Goku have to kill the White Bone Spirit? Is it bad to let her go and go her separate ways? In fact, there is another hidden plot behind this.
The secret hidden in the white bone essence
It is said that once the four Tang monks and disciples came to a mountain forest and were hungry because they had not eaten for a long time. To this end, Goku had to go to the fate, that is, at this time a woman appeared and took some food in her hand.
Just when he was about to give Tang Monk a chance, Goku suddenly appeared and killed her without saying much. Later, an old woman appeared and approached Tang Monk in the name of looking for her daughter, intending to kill him.
However, just as she was about to do it, Goku reappeared, beating the old woman to death with a stick. Shortly thereafter, an old man over half a hundred years old also came out to look for someone, and the people he was looking for were his daughter and wife.
After learning that his relatives were killed, the old man got into trouble with Tang Monk and others, and even constantly broke up the relationship between Goku and Tang Monk. Unable to bear it, Goku was another stick, killing the old man and destroying the soul of the White Bone Spirit.
At this point, the bridge section of the three dozen white bone essences ended, and Goku was also driven away by Tang Monk. Speaking of this, some people may wonder, why did Goku resolutely kill the White Bone Spirit? Or did it have to be "three times" to beat her to death? In fact, there is a reason for this.
In the original work of "Journey to the West", the real name of the three dozen white bone essences this time is called "Corpse Demon Three Plays Tang Sanzang", which can be seen from this name. If you expand the "corpse demon", it is very similar to the Taoist "three corpses", and after cutting the three corpses, you can become a saint.
The so-called "three corpses" are actually the greed of the upper corpse, the anger of the middle corpse, and the stupidity of the lower corpse, and in the Buddhist gate, "greed and anger" is called the three criticisms. Looking back at the three dozen white bone essences, Tang Monk and others were hungry in the mountain forest, and when they saw food sent by a stranger, they didn't want to eat it, which was greed.
Later, when the old woman came to make trouble, Tang Monk also ignored Goku's explanation, was very angry, and directly recited the tightening mantra. When the old man came to make trouble, his face was very sinister, but Tang Monk and the others did nothing, as if they were stupid.
Goku has fire eyes and golden eyes that can see through some of the world's distractions, but others can't, so Goku will do his best to kill the white bone spirit. Otherwise, if the "three impurities" are not removed, it may be difficult for them to become Buddhas.
Looking back at the later rounds of "Journey to the West", many people will find that after experiencing the matter of the white bone essence, Tang Monk has also increased a lot of insight and understanding, which is the result of "removing the three impurities".
In fact, in today's terms, the so-called "three corpses" and "three dirts", to put it bluntly, are more experienced, you will understand some truths, understand, understand, and understand some things, and these things are "seen in the eyes" by Goku's fire eye.
I have to say that although "Journey to the West" is a novel, it still contains many truths for people. What do you think about that?
