After three brushes of Journey to the West , I finally understood why Sun Wukong had eight precepts

Mondo Culture Updated on 2024-02-01

In our childhood memories, we climbed over several mountains and rivers, and the scenes of those mountains and rivers were more dangerous and more vicious as if it were just yesterday. Nowadays, when we talk about "the blossoming of style and style", we can't help but sigh that time flies, and Journey to the West, as a classic, has always accompanied us to grow up.

Journey to the West, it is a story full of fantasy and adventure, in which the characters are vivid. The Monkey King, who is witty, brave and omnipotent, is an indispensable protagonist in the story. As for the Eight Precepts, some people think that he is dispensable, and some people think that he is indispensable. However, when we take Journey to the West as the theme and think about if we have to delete a person, the answer is surprising.

There is a question on the Internet, assuming that a person is going to be deleted in the Journey to the West team, many netizens chose Zhu Bajie. Indeed, he is lazy and often shouts to break up. But I was surprised that more people chose the sand monks. Revisiting "Journey to the West", I understand why Sun Wukong and Bajie finally stayed away from Senior Brother Sha.

First of all, the sand monk is too silent, and his strength is not good. In "Journey to the West", the most common words spoken by Sha Seng are the senior brother and the second senior brother, and the master was captured by the monster. Although he was once a general of the shutter, in the face of difficulties, he always sought the help of Sun Wukong. Sun Wukong has a strong strength, and he actually has a certain mentality. In the process of actual combat, Erlang God can often subdue the changes of Sun Wukong. Although both Erlang God and Sun Wukong will have seventy-two changes, in the confrontation with Erlang God, Erlang God's seventy-two changes always prevail. In comparison, the strength of the sand monk is obviously inferior to the eight precepts. Although Bajie has a lot of broken mouths and eyes, Sun Wukong doesn't care about these trivial things. On the contrary, he was somewhat distant from the sand monk.

Secondly, the reason why Bajie is too calculating may lie in his personality traits. He often creates some small conflicts and frictions in the team, which may be one of the reasons why he was chosen to be removed. However, despite his many shortcomings, his presence adds a lot of fun and energy to the team.

Overall, each character in Journey to the West has its own unique personality and characteristics. It is these vivid characters that shape the charm of this classic. In our lives, we should perhaps learn these roles as well, learn to be tolerant and understanding of others, and work together to create a harmonious and joyful atmosphere. In "Journey to the West", we see that Bajie often adds oil and vinegar when Sun Wukong makes mistakes, which makes Tang Seng even more angry. At this time, the sand monk will play the role of a peacemaker and say some good things for Sun Wukong. Bajie has a lot of eyes, how could he not hear these words to defend Sun Wukong. In the original book or TV series, when Sun Wukong left, Bajie once said: "Sun Wukong is gone, I am the senior brother." This shows his dedication to the position of senior brother.

However, when Sun Wukong could finally get rid of this trouble, a few kind words from Sha Seng made Bajie remember it. If it was just someone who needed to carry the burden, Bajie might even drive the sand monk away. Therefore, since then, the eight precepts have been far away from the sand monks.

In general, the presence of the sand monk is very low, and if there is no plot to show his image, it is easy to be forgotten. In fact, although Sha Seng is of average strength, he is a loyal and reasonable person. This can't help but make people feel sorry that such a characteristic character has been downplayed because of the needs of the plot.
