Therefore, many people speculate that the Monkey King was killed, and Liu Er, a macaque protected by Tang Priest, was behind it. Moreover, this Liu Er macaque was also sent by the Tathagata, in order to replace the Monkey King, because the Tathagata found that the Monkey King's mentor was the Bodhi ancestor. Do you think these netizens' guesses are true?
However, in the Western Heaven Lingshan, Tang Priest and his disciples crossed Lingyun Xiandu, and the Monkey King was really in doubt!
Why does Liu Er's macaque belong to Tathagata Buddhism? This has to be said that the Monkey King's mentor Bodhi has to be read together with The Romance of Gods, which is known as the prequel of The Journey to the West. It is said that the founder of Bodhi was the second leader of Western religion in Romance, and everyone knows that Duobao Tathagata succeeded the leader of Western religion in the end.
Can the Taoist priests trained by saints be convincing? So he sent his mount Kong Xuan to break the chaos. It's a pity that Duobao Tathagata was turned into a golden body. In addition, after Laozi arrived in the west, the Taoist suddenly disappeared, and soon the Taoist, as the deputy leader of the church, also came to the west. At this time, the Zhunti Taoist can be said to be helpless. It may be that he washed the heart of a detained person once, so he ran away, came to a dark lamp, hid in the eyes of Duobao Tathagata, lived in Hezhou, Niu, and lived in the Samsung Cave in GV Square Inch Mountain.
However, Taoist Zhunti was not convinced, so he trained an apprentice, the Monkey King, to join the Tang Priest's team to go to the Western Heaven for Buddhist scriptures. Everyone knows that the Tathagata Buddha in The Journey to the West's original works has a "good eye" for seeing through the past and the future. Tathagata Buddha discovered this long ago, so he prepared a "tight hoop" early.
However, as we all know, the Monkey King was still disobedient even if he tightened his belt. Therefore, according to the Tathagata, "two minds disturbed Dakun". Can a scholar understand that Tathagata knows that the Monkey King has "two hearts"? In this way, Liu Er's plan to replace the Monkey King began, which is why the "True and False Monkey King" can only distinguish between true and false in Lingshan.
This is a comment from a netizen that scholars saw yesterday. I have to say that this netizen has a big brain hole. But the Romance of Gods and The Journey to the West conjectured. This feud between the Bodhi ancestor and the Tathagata is really possible, and it is also in line with the reason that the Bodhi ancestor will not let the Monkey King say that he is his apprentice. True the Monkey King died, and later it was Liu Er, a macaque, who studied classics. This statement has been circulating on the Internet for a long time. Today, this scholar really found something fishy in The Journey to the West's original works.
It is said that Tang Priest and his disciples finally reached Lingshan after many difficulties and dangers, but Lingshan was not so good. Not long after the Tang Priest and his disciples went up the mountain, they encountered a difficulty-crossing Lingyun Xiandu. What is Lingyun Xiandu can refer to The Journey to the West's original works:
The Great Sage led the Tang Priest and others to climb the Lingshan slowly. Within five or six miles, he saw a running water, about eight or nine miles wide, and the four of them were deserted. Frightened, Sanzang said, "Wukong, this road is not easy to walk. How dare you be wrong? " The water is so wide and rough that there is no boat. How can we cross it? Monkey said with a smile, "Not bad! You think that wall box is not a bridge? If you want to cross that bridge, it will be a positive result. When the old man and others looked closer again, there was an apartment on one side of the bridge, which read "Du Lingyun". It turned out to be a wooden bridge.
The ferry crossing in Wuli is called "Lingyun Xiandu", and the past method is just like what the Monkey King said, walking on that wooden bridge. In the original, only the Monkey King walked over, and Tang Priest, Pig Bajie and Friar Sand saw that there was only one wooden bridge and they were not allowed to walk, so they gave up.
In fact, the Tathagata Buddha has already prepared a boat to welcome his apprentice Jin Chan back to his hometown. It's just that this ship is a bottomless sunken ship, so sitting on it is enough. Besides, it's still the Buddha punting, also called Nanwubao Building, but a strange scene happened when crossing Lingyun Xiandu. Please refer to the original paragraph of The Journey to the West:
Sun folded his hands and thanked him, saying, "Take me as a teacher. Master, get on the boat. His boat is bottomless, but it is stable. Even if there are storms, it can't be turned over. " The elder was still surprised, and Monkey pushed up with his arms crossed. The master stood unsteadily and fell into the water. He was picked up by the boatman and stood on the boat. Master also shook his clothes, folded his shoes and feet, and complained about the walker.
Monkey, on the other hand, led Friar Sand and Pig, led horses and carried loads, and got into the boat. They all stood on the boat. The Buddha opened it gently and forcefully, only to see a dead body sliding up and down. The elder was frightened, and Monkey said with a smile, "Don't be afraid, Master, it's you." Pig also said, "It's you, it's you!" Friar Sand clapped his hands and said, "It's you, it's you!" The boatman also said, "That's you!" Congratulations! "
The three of them, also chorus. Holding the boat, I haven't been safe in Lingyun Xiandu for a while. Sanzang turned and gently jumped to the other side. There is a poem to prove it. The poem says:
Giving up the womb and falling in love is the yuan god.
Only by enriching today can we become a Buddha and wash away the dust of that year.
You see, the Tang Priest is a corpse, and every fetus has a corpse. This is not surprising, but two senior brothers, Pig Bajie and Friar Sand, also have corpses. Why is there no the Monkey King? Everyone finds that the Monkey King is too familiar with Lingshan. It's so easy for him to cross the single-plank bridge, as if he had crossed it countless times. Do you think the Monkey King in Lingyun Xiandu is suspicious? If Liu Er was born in Lingshan, can all this be explained?
