When I was a child, I watched Journey to the West and disliked the role of Tang Monk the most. Obviously, Brother Monkey can go back and forth to the Western Heavens several times a day, because of his mortal flesh, and as a result, he has been sleeping in the wind for more than ten years; and this guy has been crying and crying for his mother-in-law and mother-in-law, which has the appearance of a master?
Thinking about it now, in fact, Tang Monk also had many unavoidable grievances. As the reincarnation of the Golden Cicada, he did not have the right to choose and dominate his own destiny, because his life path had already been arranged by heaven, and he could only take every step step step by step. Any personal emotion and will he may have to be renounced and abandoned unconditionally. To put it mildly, he is just a puppet to be manipulated.
Going west to Lingshan is not only a high mountain road full of dangers, but also a disaster everywhere, as long as the head has not been kicked by a donkey and not caught by the door panel, no one should have volunteered to take the initiative to go. Moreover, even if the best scriptures are retrieved, no one may be willing to read them, and if the monks with ulterior motives are distorted, they will have to bear relevant legal responsibilities if they are not good. However, His Majesty the Emperor called a "royal brother" quite cheerfully, and Tang Monk really couldn't refuse--don't think that his old man really wanted to call Tang Monk a brother and a brother, in fact, if Tang Monk dared to say half a word, it would be a trivial matter to cut it with a knife, but he was afraid that even if he arrived at the Yin Cao Prefecture, King Yan would beat him into the eighteenth layer of hell and never be able to live forever.
First, let's look at the three disciples that the Buddha had arranged for the Tang monks. Although Sun Wukong turned seventy-two into fire eyes and golden eyes, and a heel could turn over 108,000 miles, he was a second son who was not afraid of heaven, even the Heavenly Palace dared to make trouble, the Jade Emperor dared to fight, which would put Tang Monk, a monk who was halfway out of the house, in his eyes. Guanyin Bodhisattva had secretly given Tang Monk the privilege of tightening the mantra, but that thing was not something that could be read if he missed it; otherwise, with the urine nature of the monkey, it was difficult to guarantee that he would not deliberately give Tang Monk some eye drops, after all, the work of taking the scriptures could not be played away from him. Every time he encountered danger, he only appeared until the last moment, didn't he just want to borrow the hand of the demon to make Tang Monk suffer a little flesh! The Eight Precepts of the Pig and the Sand Monk look honest on the surface, but in fact they are not fuel-saving lamps. I think that when one of them was a canopy marshal with heavy troops, and the other was a roller blind general under Guanyin, when they were in the limelight, it was estimated that Tang Monk's grandfather's grandfather's grandfather was still wearing open crotch pants. Although they were now disciples of Tang Monk, with their ability, it was as simple as stepping on an ant to kill them. When there was a slight displeasure on the way to the scriptures, they sang and shouted that they would divide the luggage and leave, and the ghost knew what kind of heart they were at peace with. There is also that seemingly loyal white dragon horse, Tang Monk is even more unaffordable, but the people are the third prince of the current Dragon King, the "second generation of officials" who are rooted in Miao Hong, joining the sutra team is purely a temporary exercise, and in the future, when he returns, he will be led by Tang Monk. As soon as he thought of riding on his back to the Western Heavens, Tang Monk immediately felt like a thorn in his back like a carp in his throat, and his spine and bones were whizzing with cold sweat. These guys are said to be their own apprentices, but in fact, which one is not the master, which is not unable to beat and scold? This kind of heartache and helplessness, Tang Monk is dumb to eat yellow even have bitterness can not say, can only knock down teeth and swallow blood.
Let's talk about the goblins you encounter on the way to the scriptures: bat spirits, spider spirits, jade rabbit spirits, giant python spirits... Flying in the sky, running underground, swimming in the water, you can almost compile an animal encyclopedia. These goblins are comparable to the Oscar movie emperor, and when they become humanoid, they are more realistic than real people, how do you let Tang Monk, an ordinary man with no power to bind the chicken, distinguish? As the saying goes, if you are not afraid of thieves, you are afraid of thieves, and Tang Monk does not know how many monsters have been remembered along the way. It is no wonder that who made him a good man cultivated for hundreds of years, and who could live forever by eating his flesh, this temptation was too great. But then again, the IQ of those monsters should have been recharged long ago, and every time they caught Tang Monk, they always went to invite the Seven Great Aunts and Eight Great Aunts first, and then held a grand carnival party, and the result was that the Tang Monk meat that came to their mouths flew whole. If you don't care about three seven twenty-one to eat a bite first, it will not be reborn and become a fairy long ago. It seems that formalism really kills people--no, it kills demons. Whenever he thought that he had been stripped and washed by the monster like a hairy crab and tied to a steamer, almost becoming a roundworm in their stomachs, Tang Monk was so angry that his teeth itched, and he was eager to immediately beat the monsters all over the place to find teeth. However, thinking about it, many of the monsters are the mount pets of the Heavenly Immortals, and it is a small matter to kill them, if they offend all the immortals because of this, then how will they mix in the Heavenly Court in the future? And if you let those monsters without background run away, it is inevitable that they will be labeled as dereliction of duty. Therefore, it is really difficult to grasp which is a person and which is a demon, which should be hit and which should be released. Whenever I think of this, I can't help but pinch a handful of sweat for Tang Monk, and it is really difficult for Elder Tang to persist in such a dilemma atmosphere until I win the victory.
As a generation of high-ranking monks, Tang Monk Pu spent the whole world, but in the Daughter Country of Xiliang, he failed to live up to the king's tenderness. In fact, that time, Tang Monk was moved by mortal hearts, but unfortunately, Fo Hai had no end to himself, and he had no choice but to be empty of the four great powers. For the queen, she thought that it was the prince who rode the white horse, but she did not think that it was Tang Monk; for Tang Monk, she thought that she had escaped a disaster, but she did not think that she had missed a lifetime. Obviously, you can get along with each other, but you can only forget about each other, and the most painful feelings in the world are probably nothing more than this.
After a long journey to the West Heaven, Tang Monk had to guard against all kinds of demons and ghosts, but also had to deal with the three disciples who were unruly, and had to undergo various tests from the Buddha of Rulai from time to time. Dancing on three eggs at the same time, none of them can be broken, and the psychological pressure of Tang Monk can be imagined. In this way, it is not difficult to understand the crying and crying personality of his mother-in-law.
After 9981 difficulties, the Tang monk finally regained the True Scriptures with merit. At the moment when the Lingshan Sealed Zen, the Tang monk was surrounded by a thousand buddhas and a thousand Buddhas; but behind the infinite scenery, the pain in his own heart could only be experienced by himself. If there is an afterlife, I think he will definitely choose to drop the Dharma and accompany her beautiful Queen to the end of the world.
Throughout the ages, many people have looked forward to becoming immortals and Buddhas, thinking how beautiful their lives are. As everyone knows, whether it is the gods or the Buddhas, in fact, their lives are also very boring and boring, and they all have their own sufferings and troubles. Maybe deep down, they are more envious of the human diet men and women, and they want to live a mortal fireworks life, but we don't know this!
