There is a saying on the Internet that Red Boy doesn't know Guanyin Bodhisattva, so when Guanyin Bodhisattva surrendered to him in the lower realm, he asked Guanyin Bodhisattva: Are you a rescuer invited by the monkey?
However, if we read the original book carefully, it is not difficult to find that this statement is actually very suspicious, if the red boy does not know Guanyin Bodhisattva, why can he change into the appearance of Guanyin Bodhisattva to fool Zhu Bajie?
In the forty-first chapter of the original work, Red Boy captured Tang Seng, Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie killed him in Huoyun Cave and asked him to release Tang Seng. The red boy refused to listen, Sun Wukong was furious, and the two sides broke out in an armed conflict.
In terms of mana cultivation, Red Boy is actually far from being Sun Wukong's opponent, the two sides fought for less than 20 rounds, Sun Wukong has an absolute advantage, Red Boy "Although he is not defeated, he is only blocking the partition, and he has no ability to attack and kill." But the red boy didn't talk about martial arts, and when Sun Wukong was careless and underestimated the enemy, he suddenly took a bite of samadhi real fire, burning Sun Wukong jumping up and down.
In order to deal with the samadhi true fire, Sun Wukong invited the old dragon king to rain to extinguish the fire, but he didn't expect that the dragon king's mortal rain could not extinguish the samadhi fire at all, but caused the fire to burn more and more, burning Sun Wukong dying.
Sun Wukong had no choice but to decide to go to the South China Sea and ask Guanyin Bodhisattva for help. But because he was too injured to drive the somersault cloud at the time, he asked Zhu Bajie to do it for him.
But he never expected that not long after Zhu Bajie set off, his actions were discovered by Red Boy. In order to stop Zhu Bajie from moving the rescuers, the red boy immediately chased after him, and the book went on to write -
"The demon king has lived here for a long time, and he knows that the road is close to the South China Sea, and the road is far away. From that approaching road, he drove the clouds, drove past the Eight Precepts, sat on the wall rock, and turned into a "fake Guanyin" appearance, waiting for the Eight Precepts.
After Zhu Bajie saw the Guanyin Bodhisattva that the red boy had changed, he bowed his head and told the red boy about asking for help from the Guanyin Bodhisattva. The red boy took the opportunity to flicker, fooled Zhu Bajie so much that he couldn't find the north, and honestly followed him to the Huoyun Cave and threw himself into the tiger's mouth.
After the red boy became Guanyin Bodhisattva, he could not only make Zhu Bajie bow his head, but also trick him into Huoyun Cave, which shows that the Guanyin Bodhisattva he has become has no flaws.
Imagine, if the red boy doesn't know Guanyin Bodhisattva, and wants to change into Guanyin Bodhisattva, I'm afraid he can't do it, how can he become flawless?
This can't help but make people very curious, does the red boy really not know Guanyin Bodhisattva? We can see the clue from the first sentence he said after he was surrendered by Guanyin Bodhisattva.
After Zhu Bajie was fooled by the red boy to Huoyun Cave and captured, Sun Wukong had to go to the South China Sea in person to ask Guanyin Bodhisattva for help. After Guanyin Bodhisattva came to the Huoyun Cave, he first asked Sun Wukong to lure the enemy and lure the red boy to her, Sun Wukong immediately fled, and she also turned into golden light and left, leaving only a lotus platform.
Red Boy is a child after all, and when he sees Lotus Terrace, he can't help but climb up to play. Unexpectedly, Guanyin Bodhisattva had already installed Wang Gang's knife on the lotus platform, and as soon as the red boy climbed up, he was trapped by Wang Gang's knife, and he couldn't break free no matter what, so he had to kowtow and surrender, and said: "Bodhisattva, my disciple has eyes and no beads, and he doesn't know your vast mana." Thousands of beggars are merciful, spare my life! Don't dare to be evil again, and be willing to enter the Dharma and precept. ”
Red Boy decided to surrender and immediately called Guanyin Bodhisattva a Bodhisattva, which shows that he absolutely knows Guanyin Bodhisattva, and it is precisely because of this that Guanyin Bodhisattva can be changed without flaws.
The so-called Are You a Rescuer Invited by a Monkey, is a line in the 86th edition of "Journey to the West", the original work is "Are you a rescuer invited by Sun Xingzhi", the two have similar meanings, it is not that the red boy does not know Guanyin Bodhisattva, but asks - whether your Guanyin Bodhisattva is the rescuer invited by Sun Wukong. What do you think?
