Important secret
In fact, why did the Monkey King kill Bai? That's because he discovered a secret. You know, the Monkey King found a fake Buddha before and didn't fight him. That's because the Monkey King saw that Bai's three mortal bodies correspond to the three criticisms of Buddhism, namely greed, anger and delusion, so he committed suicide directly.
In fact, the Monkey King directly killed Bai, because Bai's three mortal bodies are related. The Monkey King saw that Bai's three mortal bodies correspond to the three criticisms of Buddhism, namely greed, anger and delusion, and it is very important to learn from the West, so the Monkey King can't tolerate Bai, so she must be killed.
Three criticisms
What are the three criticisms? In Buddhism, three kinds of criticism are greed, anger and delusion. The woman who gives away vegetarian food for nothing is greedy, the little woman who looks for her daughter is angry, and stupidity is the last old man. So now I understand why the Monkey King wanted to kill Bai. Her existence is a turning point in destroying Tang Priest's scriptures, and she must be killed. At the same time, the three criticisms of Buddhism are also three bodies of Taoism.
There is a famous Taoist saying: "If you behead three corpses, you will prove Jin Xian." If a monk wants to embark on the road to immortality, he must eradicate and destroy this "root of three corpses". Some people will say that studying Confucian classics is obviously a matter for Buddhists. Why does it involve Taoism? Let's take a look at the title of the twenty-seventh episode of the original book, which is "Three Dramas of Corpses and Demons, and the holy monk in Tang Sanzang hates the Monkey King". It is clearly written as "corpse demon", which should be "chop three corpses".
