Many people believe that Sun Wukong went to the East Sea Dragon Palace to look for treasure, and the East Sea Dragon King gave him the best weapon, but unfortunately he did not know the goods, but instead asked for a stick.
The best weapon in this piece was the Fang Tian Painting Blade. According to the third time in the original work, this Fang Tian Painting Blade, also known as the Painting Rod Fang Tianji, weighs 7,200 pounds and requires several Dragon Palace soldiers to lift, which is a rare divine weapon in the world.
So, why is Sun Wukong not interested in this divine weapon? Is it really illiterate?
Some people also believe that it is not that Sun Wukong does not know the goods, but that although Fang Tian's painting is good, it is not suitable for him. This Fang Tian painting halberd is more than one inch long, and Sun Wukong is less than four feet tall, that is to say, the length of the Fang Tian painting halberd is several times his height, how do you let him use it?
In fact, the length of Fang Tian's painting is not introduced in the original work, but according to the plot speculation, the length should not be a problem. After Sun Wukong saw Fang Tian's painting sword, he also picked it up and played a few times, which showed that the length of Fang Tian's painting halberd could be used even if it was far above his height, otherwise he did not need to play twice, and directly refused.
The reason why Sun Wukong gave up the Fang Tian Painting Blade was actually very simple, and he explained it clearly.
The third time in the original work, after the Dragon Palace soldiers lifted the Fang Tian Painting Blade up, Sun Wukong ran close to the front and took it in his hand, threw a few shelves, sprinkled two solutions, and inserted it in the middle: "It's still light." ”
This was already the heaviest weapon in the East Sea Dragon Palace, and the old Dragon King had no choice but to recommend the DingHai God Needle to Sun Wukong.
Dinghai Shen Needle, formerly known as DingHai Shen Zhen, was forged by Daozu Taishang Laojun with nine turns of iron, engraved with five characters of "Ruyi Golden Hoop Stick", and later lent to Dayu Zhishui as a ruler to measure the depth of the sea. After the flood subsided, Dinghai Shenzhen was left by Dayu in the East Sea Dragon Palace.
The Dinghai God needle weighs 13,000 kilograms, which is very suitable for Sun Wukong, and what makes Sun Wukong more satisfied is that it is worthy of the Ruyi Golden Hoop Stick, which can be changed at will according to his own needs. Therefore, Sun Wukong immediately decided: Old Dragon King, whether you still have any treasures hidden, anyway, Old Sun has taken a fancy to this sea god needle.
When Sun Wukong took away the Needle of the Sea God, there was often such a plot in the film and television dramas, where a serious tsunami occurred in the entire Dragon Sea, and the Dragon Palace shook violently like an earthquake, as if it would collapse at any time.
However, there is no such plot in the original book. In the third time of the original work, Sun Wukong took away the Needle of the Sea God, and the East Sea was calm and calm, neither a tsunami occurred, nor did the Dragon Palace shake.
So, why did Sun Wukong take away the Needle of the Sea God, and there was no tsunami in the East China Sea? The reason is simple, if you know the true meaning of "Dinghai", you can see it at a glance.
Many people think that taking away the needle of the sea god, the logic of the tsunami in the East China Sea is that the sea is the meaning of stabilizing the sea, and since this is the case, taking away the needle of the sea god that stabilizes the sea, of course, there will be a tsunami in the East China Sea.
But in fact, fixing the sea is not the intention of stabilizing the sea. The name of the Dinghai God Needle is taken by Dayu, and the Water of Dayu Zhishui is to control the Yellow River, dredge the yellow river channel, make the river flow into the sea, and solve the problem of flooding the river, so if Dayu gives the sea god needle a name with the meaning of stability, the Dinghai God needle should not be called the Dinghai God Needle, but should be called "Dinghe God Needle".
The real meaning of Dinghai should be the meaning of "determining the depth of the sea". The golden hoop stick can change the length at will, so Dayu uses it as a ruler to determine the depth of the sea, so as to better complete the task of diverting the water of the Yellow River to the sea, and finally calm the flooding of the Yellow River. Dayu was very happy, so he praised the golden hoop stick as "a magical treasure to determine the depth of the sea", so he named it "Dinghai Shenzhen", also known as Dinghai Shen Needle.
Since what Sun Wukong took was only a special ruler that Dayu left in the East Sea Dragon Palace, how could it lead to a tsunami in the East Sea?
