Ruan Ruolin proposed that Xu Shaohua try the Tang monks at that time, after the makeup artist's styling, xiaobian felt that among the three Tang monks, only Xu Shaohua was the most beautiful in appearance, the most Tang qi, and the most in line with the original Tang monks, so Xu Shaohua officially took over wang Yue's mantle and embarked on the journey of learning the scriptures from the Western Heavens.
Gao Laozhuang's role was filmed in The Ten Wat Garden in Weifang, Shandong, and the Tang monks Xu Shaohua and Gao Cuilan Wei Huili in the play are both actors from Shandong, and the two cooperated in "Journey to the West" after the film "The Transformation of the Film".

When everyone was watching this episode at that time, did you pay attention to the fact that there was a lady next to Miss Gao, who was found by director Yang Jie from the local Lu Opera Troupe, and did you find that Xiang Ling's appearance was higher than Wei Huili?

Journey west to Laoshan Mountain for filming
Journey to the West filming site
In the episode "Eight Precepts of Counting Pigs", Gao Cai went out to find the mage scene in Laoshan, Qingdao.
Everyone still remembers that in "Counting the Eight Precepts of the Pig", the most wonderful length is the daughter-in-law of the Eight Precepts of the Pig, and this scene was also filmed in Laoshan, Qingdao.
Yan Huaili, Yang Jie, Kuang Changxiu, Ma Dehua, and the six-year-old tong Laoshan Taiqing Palace took a group photo
At that time, during the filming, director Yang Jie also visited Kuang Changxiu, the host of the Laoshan Taiqing Palace, and received many points of guidance from the Dao Chief, and Yang Jie and others also benefited a lot.
The finishing touch
The main creators in the play took a group photo to commemorate the occasion
In the episode "Eight Precepts of the Pig", the most prominent comedic color is the scene of "The Eight Precepts of the Pig".
In the original book of "Journey to the West", there is actually no "Pig Eight Commandments Back Daughter-in-Law" scene, in fact, this wonderful plot inspiration comes from shadow puppet plays, when shadow puppet plays handed down this classic plot, so director Yang Jie also added this plot to the TV series.
Pig Eight Commandments back daughter-in-law can be bitter Ma Dehua
Pig Eight Commandments Back Daughter-in-law
At that time, the scene of "Pig Eight Precepts Back daughter-in-law" was found in Laoshan, Qingdao, and at that time, in order to shoot this scene, Ma Dehua, who played the Eight Precepts of Pigs, suffered a lot of crimes.
If Miss Gao only needs to lie on Ma Dehua's body according to normal thinking, Ma Dehua only needs to wrap her arms around her two legs from behind.
The stage depends on the art of beauty, and Wei Huili, who plays Miss Gao, feels that this pose is very unsightly, and finally uses a kneeling posture. Kneeling back, this difficulty is relatively large, because it is not close, because at that time Ma Dehua also made up the makeup of the eight precepts of the pig, installed a fake belly, the front chest is attached to the back, so it is very difficult to shoot, not to mention That Ma Dehua said that he also had to cooperate with a series of actions, which was like carrying a boat at that time, which was particularly inconvenient.
This is not nothing, Ma Dehua while walking while engaging in stunts, when in the play to see the camera turn High Miss and then become Sun Wukong, when the camera arrived at the designated position, the director then shouted to stop, Ma Dehua and Wei Huili could not move at all, had to quickly change the monkey on the field.
Pig Eight Commandments back daughter-in-law is a lot of fun
So Ma Dehua has to toss back and forth, one will carry Miss Gao, one will carry the monkey, this is a bitter Ma Dehua, which has the funny effect we see on TV, although the shooting is very fortunate, but this scene is still very good overall.
Tongtian Cave almost burned the Eight Precepts of the Pig
Hangzhou Lingyin Temple Tongtian Cave
Finally, let's talk about Yunzhan Cave, which is taken from the Tongtian Cave of Lingyin Temple in Hangzhou, Zhejiang.
The shooting experience of Yunzhan Cave can be described as quite tortuous and bizarre, and it is also the only fight scene in the whole episode, which did not feel good due to insufficient fire at the first shooting.
The smoke master Liu Li made a cameo appearance at the wedding banquet in the episode "Counting the Eight Precepts of the Pig"
So in the second set, the smoke master Liu Li increased the amount of magnesium powder, the fire burned up at once, this fire can be said to be really big, a wave of Ma Dehua out of several meters, almost really burned Ma Dehua up, so this shooting is still quite dangerous in general, the actors in the play can be said to have a wonderful plot in the play.
