Sun Wukong is one of the most famous mythical figures in China. He comes from the four famous books journey to the West. The following is a detailed interpretation of the Chinese story network. Let’s read on~
The three princes of King Yuhua are the only disciples of Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajie and Sha Seng. However, the Bodhi patriarch once warned Sun Wukong not to show off his skills. Why did Sun Wukong not only show off his martial arts in Yuhua state, but also take the prince as his disciple,
I. arrive at Yuhua County
When the Buddhist Scripture collection team arrived in Yuhua County, Tang Monk went to ask the roadside elders about the local situation. When he learned that this place was the fief of King Yuhua, who respected monks and Taoists and loved the people, Tang monk was very happy and led his disciples forward happily. The Tang Monk saw that business was flourishing in Yuhua County, and the customs of the people were the same as those of the Tang Dynasty, so he ordered the three disciples not to be presumptuous. So pig Bajie bowed his head and monk Sha covered his face. Only Sun Wukong supported Tang Monk forward.
The people of Yuhua felt strange when they saw the Tang monks and disciples, so they made fun of them. Therefore, Zhu Bajie revealed his true colors and scared the people away. Then Tang Monk took his disciples into the city and found that the city was very rich. Therefore, he praised the paradise for its reputation. When the Tang Monk went to the residence of King Yuhua, he asked the three disciples to take a rest in the reception hall, and went to see the king Yuhua to exchange the customs clearance documents.
II. Meet King Yuhua
When King Yuhua saw the Tang Monk coming, he immediately summoned him to give him a seat and put a seal on his document. King Yuhua asked Tang Monk about the journey from the Tang Dynasty to Tianzhu. He replied that it was 108000 Li and had taken 14 years. When King Yuhua learned that Tang Monk had come here after going through difficulties and dangers, he respected him more and ordered people to prepare vegetarian meals for him. After hearing this, Tang monk said that he had three disciples. King Yuhua then sent his staff to invite Sun Wukong and others to the house to eat with the Tang monk.
When the subordinates of King Yuhua came to the reception hall and saw Sun Wukong, they were shocked. They thought that Zhu Bajie was a “pig mandrill”, Sun Wukong was a “Monkey King”, and Sha Seng was a “kitchen king”. Sun Wukong and monk Sha told them not to panic. The three of them were disciples of Tang monk. Those officials were relieved and took Sun Wukong and others into the palace.
King Yuhua was afraid when he saw Sun Wukong and others. The Tang monk then came forward to comfort the king. Pig Bajie sang to King Yuhua, which made him more afraid. Therefore, the Tang Monk once again comforted me and asked the Lord to forgive me. The king of Yuhua had no choice but to suppress his fear and ordered the Tang monks to take them to the violent gauze Pavilion. Tang Monk went to the pavilion and blamed Zhu Bajie for being rude, which scared the king of Yuhua.
Three, three princes provocation
When the three sons of King Yuhua saw that he looked frightened, they came forward to ask the reason, and King Yuhua told him the whole story. When the three princes heard this, they suspected that Tang Seng was a mountain demon disguised, so they went to check with their weapons. The first prince took an eyebrow stick, the second prince swung a nine tooth palladium stick, and the third prince used a black oil stick to arrive at the pavilion.
When the three princes saw the Tang Monk’s apprentices, they asked whether they were people or demons? Hearing this, Tang Seng was afraid, so he came forward to explain. After hearing this, the three princes thought that Tang monk was human and the three disciples were demons. Pig Bajie only cared about eating. Monkey King and monk Sha asked the three princes what their identities were and why they were so frivolous? Therefore, the food Officer explained the identity of the three princes.
Pig Bajie asked the three princes if they wanted to fight with themselves after they took the weapons? The second prince hit pig Bajie, but he was scared by the nine tooth rake. Sun Wukong then took out the golden cudgel and gave it to the big prince, but he couldn’t move it. Monk Sha took out the magic wand to frighten the three princes away. Only then did the three princes know that Sun Wukong and they were immortals. They hurriedly knelt down and begged them to show their martial arts.
Sun Wukong played with the golden cudgel in the sky for a long time; Pig Bajie’s heart itched, so he went to heaven to show his martial arts. Then monk Sha went to heaven to show his martial arts. When the people of Yuhua County saw this, they knelt down and kowtowed to the Buddha. Not long after, Sun Wukong and his disciples received their weapons and asked Tang monk for information. The three princes went back to discuss with their father, King Yuhua, to learn from their master. King Yuhua agreed happily.
IV. display weapons
King Yuhua brought three princes to find Tang Monk’s master and apprentice to show his intention of worshipping the master. Sun Wukong listened and agreed with a smile. Yuhua Wang Daxi, therefore, prepared a feast to entertain the scripture team. The next day, the three princes worshipped Sun Wukong and asked them to lend their weapons and show them. Zhu Bajie and Sha Seng took out their weapons and threw them into the ground. The second prince and the third prince went up to get them. As a result, they were so tired that they were flushed and breathless that they could not take any of them.
The eldest prince told his two brothers not to take it, and asked master about the weight of the weapon. Pig Bajie replied that his nine tooth rake weighs 5048 Jin, and monk Sha replied that his demon subduing staff also weighs 5048 Jin. The big prince asked Sun Wukong to see the weapon. He took out the golden cudgel and said it weighed 13500 Jin. After hearing this, the three princes admired the master more and asked for martial arts.
Knowing that the three princes were mortals and could not hold their treasures, Sun Wukong asked them to bathe their hands and burn incense first, and then teach them their magic power. The three princes then bathed their hands and burned incense, and asked master to teach them. Sun Wukong first saluted the Tang monk to show his intention of accepting disciples. Zhu Bajie and Sha Seng followed suit and saluted Tang Seng. Later, Sun Wukong blew the immortal spirit into the three princes at the pavilion, and passed on the pithy formula, turning them into Hercules. The three princes are strong and strong, and can carry three weapons.
King Yuhua was so happy that he gave a banquet in honor of the Tang monks and disciples. Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajie and Sha Seng taught the martial arts to the three princes before the banquet, but although they could carry weapons, they were still out of breath after holding them for a long time. On the third day, the three princes indicated to master that they would reduce the weight of the three weapons and build new weapons. Pig Bajie agreed. The three princes then went to a blacksmith to buy steel and prepare to make weapons. On the fourth day, the three of them took out their weapons and put them in the courtyard, so that the blacksmith could forge them.
The golden cudgel, the nine tooth rake and the demon subduing staff have been staying in the Royal Palace, releasing the glow and auspicious atmosphere. As a result, they were discovered by the yellow lion spirit of Hukou cave in Baotou mountain 70 miles away. They stole three weapons and held a rake party. Finally, Sun Wukong killed the yellow lion spirit and other monsters. He also found Taiyi to save kutianzun and take away the spirit ancestor jiulingyuansheng. At last, the blacksmith made three weapons, and Sun Wukong taught the three princes martial arts, and then left for the West.
V. why did Sun Wukong accept disciples
The master said, “you can wait.” Call: “Wukong, come here! I asked you what spirit you have and what kind of pine tree you have become. How can you show off in front of others? If you see others have it, don’t ask them? If others see you have it, they will ask you. If you are afraid of evil, you will spread it to them; if you don’t spread it to them, you will certainly do harm: your life is not guaranteed.” Wu Kong kowtowed and said, “I only hope master will forgive me.” (journey to the west, Chapter 2)
Lao Wang got up and said, “Mr. Tang, I have only one who serves me. I wonder if the three masters will allow me?” Sanzang said, “but with the order of the millennium, I dare not disobey.” The old king said: “… The three dogs have been good at martial arts all their lives. Now they are sincere and want to become disciples and learn some martial arts. We hope that the teacher will open up the world, carry the benevolent boat and pass on the children. We will thank him with the capital of the city.” Upon hearing this, the walker couldn’t help laughing and said: “Your Highness, I’m not going to be a problem. I’m a monk and I can’t wait to pass on some disciples. Since your father has a heart of kindness, he can’t say anything about it. But it’s love to get along with him only.” (journey to the west, 88 chapters)
The reason why Sun Wukong accepted the three princes of Yuhua state as disciples is mainly due to the following reasons:
First of all, Bodhisattva warned Sun Wukong not to show off in front of outsiders, for his good, so that he would not be envied by others and cause trouble. But Sun Wukong is unruly, and he often shows off his troubles in front of monsters. It can be seen that Sun Wukong did not pay attention to the words of Bodhi.
Secondly, King Yuhua respected monks and Taoists and loved the people, so he left a good impression on the Tang monks. Later, the Tang monk met the king of Yuhua and was always respected, so he praised the king even more. So King Yuhua pleaded for his three sons. Tang Monk didn’t even think about what was wrong, so he agreed for the three disciples. Sun Wukong and the three of them did not want to disobey master’s orders. Naturally, they wanted to take the three princes as disciples.
Finally, although the three princes of Yuhua state were only mortals and had provoked the scripture collection team, the three loved martial arts and changed their mistakes when they knew they were wrong. Therefore, in order to make a good relationship and not hurt the harmony between the two sides, Sun Wukong taught the three princes immortality and accepted them as disciples.
