Brief introduction of the Monkey King.

The Dharma Walker is a great disciple of Tang Priest.

It will change seventy-two times, and it will fly. A pair of eyes can see through the tricks of ghosts and ghosts; A somersault can turn 108 thousand Li; The weapon used is Ruyi Golden Hoop, which can be changed at will, from embroidery needle to indomitable spirit.

Taking Guo Huashan as the king, he claimed to be the Great Sage of Qitian, disturbed the Queen Mother's flat peach victory, stole the old gentleman's elixir of life, defeated 100,000 generals in the Heavenly Palace, overreached himself and killed the Tathagata, and was crushed under the Five Elements Mountain for more than 500 years.

Later, after the inspiration of Guanyin Bodhisattva, Tang Priest went to the West to learn Buddhist scriptures and was protected. Monkey King Thrice Defeats the Skeleton Demon surrendered to Hon Hai 'er and put out the flaming mountain. After 81 difficulties, he finally got back the true scriptures. He hates evil, is fearless, persevering and fearless. After learning the scriptures, it was named Doufo.

The Journey to the West is a well-known classic in China. The reason why she can survive for a long time is mainly because the Monkey King, the hero portrayed by Wu Cheng'en, is a "lively, witty, optimistic, full of fighting spirit and unlimited ability" person. It embodies the wisdom and strength of the people in their struggle against feudal forces and nature. "Where is the Monkey King's hometown? Some people will say that The Journey to the West has made a specific explanation during his first visit. " It is the border of a small country called Ole in the east of Dongsheng Shenzhou. There is a mountain of flowers and fruits. There is a fairy stone on the mountain, and the stone lays an egg. When it weathered into a stone monkey, it worshipped everywhere, with golden eyes and shot at Doufu. "At first, the jade emperor didn't mind, thinking that" the following things are all born of the essence of heaven and earth, and there is no difference. "Later, we made a scene in the Heavenly Palace, arguing with the jade emperor's old son's heaven. The Jade Emperor ordered Tota Heavenly Kings Li Jing and Nezha and his son to lead hundreds of heavenly soldiers and set up a tight encirclement. Why not? Its hometown is in Huaguoshan.

The Monkey King is a natural monkey created by Wu Cheng'en. Who is its prototype? This involves its origin, that is, the problem of hometown. In 1930s and 1950s, there were two heated discussions in the literary world. According to the image of Wu in Tai Ping Guang Ji, Lu Xun thinks that the image of the Monkey King is related to Wu. It should have been born in China. As for Hu Shi, according to the ancient Indian chronicle poem Rama Biography (now translated as Ramayana), there was a general of the monkey kingdom named Haman, who could fly in the air and jumped from India to Ceylon (now Sri Lanka). He was swallowed by the old monster, but after the change, he emerged from the old monster's ear. The Monkey King's hometown, he thought, was in India. Later, Zheng Zhenduo, Lin Peiyuan, Chen Yinque and others all thought that the Monkey King was an Indian "monkey". Is that its hometown is in India. After the founding of People's Republic of China (PRC), this issue once again aroused the interest of academic circles, and three viewpoints were formed in the discussion. One view is that the image of the Monkey King evolved from Haruman, and the Monkey King is a "foreign monkey". The second view is that the image of the Monkey King has both lifeless elements and Harman elements. He is the "half-blood monkey" of China and India. The third view holds that the the Monkey King created by Wu Cheng'en is compatible with the four myths and legends. First, Dayu's son was born from a broken stone; Second, he is like an ape; Third, he is a bronze-headed human-god brother who fought side by side with the Yellow Emperor. Fourth, he is a hero who fights with the Emperor of Heaven. Liu believes that when Wu Cheng'en wrote The Journey to the West, the story of the Buddhist scriptures had not reached China. Therefore, the Monkey King is a monkey in China, and his hometown is in China.

Over the years, there has been a folk legend. Wu Cheng'en made a detailed field trip to Huaguo Mountain when he wrote Journey to the West, but when he wrote about the Monkey King, he didn't have much music in his heart, and many stories were difficult to write. Even if there is, it can't be written at the moment, and the time is coming to the Spring Festival. He simply put down his pen, left Huaguoshan and returned to his hometown Huai 'an (now Chuzhou) for the New Year. On New Year's Eve, he stayed up late chatting with the old people in the neighborhood. Knowing that he likes listening to stories, the old man told one story after another. He told the story of Dayu's failure to help catch the water demon (also known as the jellyfish queen by the people). He looks like a macaque with a wide forehead, a short nose, golden eyes and white teeth. He is very strong, runs very fast and is good at jumping. Lock him in the octagonal sulfur glass well at the foot of Guishan at the mouth of Huaihe River into Hongze Lake. After listening to this story, Wu Cheng'en suddenly realized that a monster who doesn't keep Qi can also have such great skills, and the Monkey King can certainly have greater skills than it, so he entered Sheyangzi (his home is in Huai 'an) and wrote his masterpiece The Journey to the West in one breath, taking keeping Qi as the prototype, creating a witty, brave and well-connected "stone monkey". "Taiping Universe" Volume 16 There is also a story that describes Dayu's capture of the water monster without helping Qi. "Yu water conservancy from three places to Tongbai, is the name of the water god without gas, good at rhetoric, distinguish the shallowness of Jianghuai, and the original is far away. If it is shaped like a macaque, with a high nose and white head, golden eyes and snow teeth, a neck stretching 100 feet, and nine elephants, it can be seen for a long time. I teach sub-rules, and sub-rules can't be used. He taught Birmudian, which can be built under Birmudian and Chen Geng. The neck is full of cypress, the charming trees are moist, and the stone monsters in Shan Yao rush through the vast forest for thousands of degrees. Chen Geng chased after him with a halberd, so he locked his neck with a big rope and pierced his nose with a golden bell, and moved to Huaiyin to lock the foot of Guishan Mountain. Huai water is a safe flow into the sea. "

Guishan, located at the throat of the Huaihe River into Hongze Lake, is surrounded by water on three sides, and looks like a giant turtle crawling in the Huaihe River. Yang Wanli, a poet in the Song Dynasty, said in Guishan Pagoda that "Guishan alone suppressed the Huaihe River". In ancient times, this tiny place included Wei Wucheng, Xiangwangcheng, Xiaoercheng, Huaidu Temple and Anhuai Temple. There are many cities, temples, large scale and incense. Su Shi and others gave it: "Wooden fish calls guests to Lin Mang" and "The bell rings and the blue clouds are far away". From the Tang Dynasty to the Qing Dynasty, it has always been a place where people gather and monks worship. Qizhijing is in front of Huaidu Temple, and the remains of this well are still there. It is said that when Emperor Qianlong went to Guishan to see the water demon, he was scared out of his mind. Wu Cheng'en was deeply impressed by the story of Dayu's capture of Wuqi. According to his poem "Ruilong Pavilion" in Yang Shan Literature and Art, "I remember carrying water for him yesterday and braving the boundless Guo Xiang Mausoleum. It's all Yunlong's madness, and human resources have no reason to kill it. ..... I can't see it alone. In those days, God ruled Kyushu and played Yuan Gui to move the world. " Many stories in The Journey to the West are based on the legend of Dayu's water control and its derivatives. For example, the Monkey King makes heaven restless. The Jade Emperor first ordered King Li Jing of Tota and his third son, Nezha, to lead hundreds of heavenly soldiers to capture the "Demon Monkey", but it didn't succeed. Then he invited Jiro Zhenjun, who was officially released in Guanzhou, to wait for him. Later, Guanyin and the God of Laojun participated in the encirclement and suppression, and were crushed by the King Kong Zhuo of Laojun. Put it in the old man's gossip furnace for 7749 days, and it became a critical eye. Open the lid of the stove a little and it ran away. Finally, the Jade Emperor invited the Tathagata to save the Monkey King, who was crushed by the Tathagata under the Five Elements Mountain. This is the same as Dayu's capture of Qi without support, which took three times to capture; For another example, this true gentleman Erlang is also a hero who catches water monsters in Dujiangyan myths and legends; Another example is that the Tang Priest and his disciples arrived at Xiaoleiyin Temple and were caught by the monster Huangmei. After the Monkey King escaped, Wu Cheng'en still did not forget to "arrange" the Monkey King to "Xuyi Mountain City, a southern island", and invited "Prince Zhang who surrendered to the jellyfish queen that year" to catch the monster. In ancient times, Guishan once belonged to Xuyi County. Look at Xuyi Mountain again: "Lv Jiang is in the south and Huaishui is in the north. East to the sea, west to Upright. On the top of the mountain, the balcony is magnificent, and there are streams and springs in the ravine. The rugged rocks show that Qiao Song is on the rocks. ..... There are Yan Rui Temple, Dongyue Palace, Wuxian Temple, Guishan Temple, and Zhongyun Yanyu Chongbihan; There are also Glass Spring, Wangtayu, Baxiantai, Apricot Garden, and mountains and rivers and trees reflect the city. The clouds are horizontal, and the birds are still singing when they are tired. It is said that it is very quiet and beautiful, and the fairyland here is radiant "(back to the 60th person in The Journey to the West). In Wu Cheng'en's pen, the first mountain victory in Xuyi is Penglai fairyland. The second time in The Journey to the West, the Monkey King borrowed the weapon Ruyi Golden Hoop from the Old Dragon King, which was the "treasure iron of Tianhe". It turns out that "it is the iron stator that determines the depth of the river when Dayu controls the water, and it is the iron of god." The weapons used by the Monkey King are also closely related to Dayu's water control. "Many characters and story lines written by Journey to the West from literary fantasy are still inseparable from reality, which is the basis of the author's understanding and experience of social reality and understanding of social life" (preface of The Journey to the West 1955 edition). Judging from many plots in the book, Wu is the prototype of Sun Wukong, so there is no doubt that the Monkey King's hometown is in China and Guishan on Hongze Lake in Huai 'an.

When Paul wrote his novel, there was probably no such thing as balance, so everyone was curious about the Monkey King's real strength. Why are you invincible in the Heavenly Palace and tortured by rookie monsters on the way to learn from the scriptures? I think this can explain.

First of all, we must clarify the attribute types of various immortals:

The Monkey King is undoubtedly a powerful melee fighter. Its equipment is a super heavyweight hand-to-hand combat weapon (golden hoop), and its body is similar to the "nothingness" immortal body. Hand-to-hand combat with him is undoubtedly death Sun's spells are many, but they are all auxiliary. I've only seen him hammer people with a golden hoop, but I've never seen him attack the enemy directly with spells, have I? Therefore, the Monkey King should be defined as a warrior. The outstanding representatives of such figures are: Emperor Wen of Sui, Niu and Dapeng. Alas, why are they all orc races?

Most of the Taoist immortals are human beings, and they are all novices who rely on dolls. Although the baby is very powerful, users don't like fighting because of their self-cultivation, and they lack fighting experience, so they can't play effectively. Zhenyuan Daxian is an experienced combat expert. His "Gan Kun in the Sleeve" is probably the treasure hidden in the sleeve. Suddenly used, so the Monkey King was arrested. Nezha is a special case. He is a hand-to-hand fighter with a treasure. Unfortunately, magic is not good, and melee is also poor. It is a failed work in the new weapon developed by heaven. No problem with mixed soldiers, no problem with real masters.

Buddhists and Buddhists are both masters of magic. Tathagata is undoubtedly a master of space magic (hand-to-hand combat is not necessarily a monkey's opponent, so we came up with a bet that Sun Fei would move a mountain to crush people and add a gravity magic spell as a seal when he saw that the mountain could not be crushed). Guanyin is a typical priest, with no attack power, but it can be strengthened and treated to the master level. Buddhists lack the talent of hand-to-hand combat, so no matter how disrespectful monkeys are to the leader (including peeing on the leader), it will take 500 years to try every means to recruit monkeys. Talent is hard to find! In fact, the final plan of Journey to the West is to win over the monkey, a talented warrior with super melee ability! ! (Tang Yan? It's just a cover to blind the celestial intelligence network, and the Tang Priest itself is probably the undercover agent secretly sent by the Buddha to guide the Monkey King into submission in the name of demotion.

In many places in the novel, we can see the efforts made by all parties to actively win over the Monkey King. Therefore, Bajie may be the undercover sent by Taoist gods, and Friar Sand may be the undercover sent by the bad heaven ... Terrible! ) When Sun surrendered, you can support a small number of army troops to seize the worse gate and dominate the celestial world in China with overwhelming magic advantage. hahahaha ...

War case analysis:

When hundreds of thousands of heavenly troops were going to encircle and encircle, the Monkey King was a solo assault, and he had no scruples in the battlefield behind enemy lines. He gave full play to the advantages of close combat capability and superior machine power, and adopted the guerrilla tactics of "fight if you can, and run if you can't" to sneak attack the whole terrorist. After coming out of the blast furnace, it burned for 7749 days due to inhuman torture! Berserker is a cow in the Heavenly Palace. Many heavenly soldiers will fight bloody street battles. Powerful magic and treasures can't be used, and the advantage in melee ability will be brought into full play, causing panic in heaven. Imagine that a group of special forces terrorists fled into Beijing, and the city could not use heavy weapons, but only armed police and light weapons. Try to recall the escape course of the three kidnapping leaders in the Bai Xiaoyan case). Of course, the scene is invincible. It can be said that the Monkey King's superpowers can only be so powerful if they are brought into play under certain conditions.
