"Little Sage Shi Wei Descends to the Great Sage" is a classic chapter in Journey to the West, in order to subdue the culprit who disturbed the Pan Tao Society is committing Sun Wukong, Guanyin recommended Erlang God to the Jade Emperor to go to the demon subjugation.
Erlang God called himself the little sage, and Sun Wukong was named the Monkey King, so the big sage and the little sage started a duel in Huaguo Mountain.
In terms of supernatural changes, both of them are good at seventy-two changes, and in terms of combat power value, both of them are also on the same level, so they fought back and forth, and the two did not distinguish between victory and defeat.
But because Erlang God is doing things for the heavenly court, there are many fairy world bigwigs who stand and cheer for him later, and seeing that the two are fighting each other, Taishang Laojun, who is watching the battle in the clouds, sacrifices King Kong Zhuo to attack Sun Wukong.
In this case, no matter how hard Sun Wukong's head was, he couldn't withstand this sudden blow, and was finally knocked to the ground.
Subsequently, Erlang God's Roaring Sky Dog and the Seven Meishan Brothers swarmed to capture Sun Wukong alive, while Huaguoshan was burned by Erlang God's order.
Erlang God captured Sun Wukong alive and burned Huaguo Mountain, it is said that from then on, the two should be married.
However, the fact is that when dealing with the nine-headed insect, Sun Wukong actually called Erlang God one brother at a time, and similarly, for Sun Wukong, Erlang God also regarded him as a brother and helped him defeat the nine-headed insect.
So the question is, when dealing with the nine-headed insect, how did Sun Wukong and Erlang God suddenly become good brothers?
In this regard, Tang Gu believes that there are no more than the following three reasons:
First, Erlang God did not kill Huaguo Mountain at the beginning;
It is said that heroes cherish heroes, when they were in the Great War of Huaguo Mountain, although Erlang God and Sun Wukong were on opposite sides, because the two had the same magical powers and combat power value, it was inevitable that there would be a feeling of heroism and sympathy.
The two of them are also a gentleman's battle between you and me, and they didn't play conspiracy, maybe they saw this, so Taishang Laojun and Guanyin Bodhisattva, who were watching the battle, fought to end this battle as soon as possible.
When Sun Wukong was captured alive, all the monkeys in Huaguo Mountain were killed according to the regulations, after all, Sun Wukong committed the crime of rebellion, and the monkeys were all his subordinates, so they would naturally be implicated.
However, Erlang God did not let the three thousand grass head gods kill the monkeys one by one, but ordered the fire of Huaguo Mountain, which gave the monkeys a chance to survive.
Imagine that all the monkeys run into the water curtain hole, and with this water curtain as a barrier, no matter how big the fire is, it can't burn in.
This is also the reason why Sun Wukong said that he had a great favor to him after seeing Erlang God again, that is, Erlang God did not kill Huaguo Mountain;
Second, the two sides were in the same camp at that time;
When encircling and suppressing Huaguo Mountain, Sun Wukong rebelled in Heaven, and Erlang God was in the camp of Heaven, so the two sides became opposites, and it was natural for them to fight.
When dealing with the hydra, Sun Wukong had already joined Lingshan and returned to heaven, in a sense, Sun Wukong had abandoned the darkness and turned to the light.
For Erlang God, although his occupation of the Guanjiang Estuary belongs to the existence of the overlord of one side, it can be seen from the fact that he helped Heavenly Court to encircle and suppress Huaguo Mountain, he is actually on the side of Heavenly Court.
Since Sun Wukong has returned to Heaven, Erlang God is on the side of Heaven again, which means that Sun Wukong and Erlang God were in the same camp at that time.
In this way, it is not surprising that they call each other brothers;
Three, having a common enemy;
For immortal cultivators, it is their job to subdue demons and eliminate demons.
The nine-headed insect is a flying bird with nine heads, and it is also a monster, when he entered the family of the Ten Thousand Saints Dragon King, because the Ten Thousand Saints Dragon King was under the control of the Heavenly Court, so logically speaking, the nine-headed insect at that time was no longer a monster.
However, the nine-headed insect is not cherished, and he prefers to be a demon everywhere, that is, stealing the Buddha's treasure relics, so that he has become the public enemy of the immortal Buddha.
Sun Wukong fought the nine-headed insect for this, and Erlang God, who passed through here on the way out hunting, naturally would not sit idly by, so Sun Wukong and Erlang God had a common enemy, and for this reason, the two fought side by side, and naturally they were like brothers.
The above are the three reasons why Sun Wukong and Yang Jian suddenly became good brothers when dealing with the nine-headed insect: that is, Erlang God did not kill all the monkeys in Huaguo Mountain, and they were in the same camp and had the same enemies with each other.
