What is the identity of the shepherd boy? Why is he the only one who can visit Sun Wukong ? Look at what he is holding in his hand.
In the story of Journey to the West, there are actually many unsolved mysteries. . For example, on the way to obtain scriptures, so many monsters clearly have the opportunity to eat Tang Monk, but why? Many times I have to wait for Sun Wukong to come for reinforcements, and there are many powerful masters in heaven, such as Taishang Laojun , Yuanshi Tianzun and Lishan Mother . Jade Emperor Why is the movie called Buddha came to suppress Sun Wukong.
There is also Zhen Yuanzi is the ancestor of the earth immortals, and his seniority is extremely high, but why the Queen Mother did not invite him to the peach feast, there are many other questions, and today we will talk about one of them , that is why when Sun Wukong was trapped under the Five Elements Mountain for more than 500 years, no one went to see him, and some were just shepherds . What is his origin?
Many people said that Sun Wukong was suppressed on the Five Elements Mountain. Those brothers who had sworn sworn brothers with monkeys, as well as Taibaijinxing, etc., no one had the kindness to visit Sun Wukong. In fact, it was not true, because when the Tathagata will When Sun Wukong was suppressing him, he put up many defenses around the mountain.
"The Tathagata said goodbye to the Jade Emperor and the gods, and went out of the gate of heaven with the two sages. He had a compassionate heart, recited the mantra, and summoned an earth god from the Five Elements Mountain. Together with the five parties, he revealed the truth and lived in this mountain for custody. . But when he was hungry, he ate iron balls with him; when he was thirsty, he drank with his melted copper juice." Therefore, Wuxing Mountain is actually under surveillance, so no one dares to visit.
But not long after Sun Wukong was rescued by Tang Monk, he met the shepherd boy who gave him peaches. The shepherd boy also said: "When I saw you when I was a child, you had grass on your head and mud on your face, so I wasn't afraid of you; now There is no mud on his face, no grass on his head, but he seems to have lost weight, and there is a big piece of tiger skin around his waist. How different can he be from a ghost? "
There is a doubt here, because Sun Wukong said to this old man: "I don't remember when I was born, but it has been more than five hundred years at the foot of this mountain." As you can see, over five hundred years, if that shepherd boy had been an ordinary mortal, he would have been there long ago. How could he recognize Sun Wukong after being reincarnated several times?
And the true identity of the shepherd boy , , is actually , the Bodhi Patriarch, . Why do you say that? First of all, after Patriarch Bodhi transformed into a shepherd boy, with his magic power and ability, the guards could not do anything to him. And why did the Patriarch who transformed into a shepherd boy only send peaches to Sun Wukong, but not some bananas or other food?
In fact, as early as Lingtai Fangcun Mountain , Sun Wukong said to Patriarch Bodhi: "My disciple was originally ignorant and didn't know how long it was. I only remember that there was no fire under the stove. I often went to the back of the mountain to collect firewood. When I saw a mountain of good peach trees, I ate there seven times and was full of peaches.” From what Sun Wukong said, we can also know that although the Patriarch cruelly drove the monkey away, in his heart, Bodhi still regarded the monkey as his disciple, so he still regarded him as his disciple. I remember that Sun Wukong’s favorite food is peaches, so I turned into a shepherd boy and gave him peaches. What do you think?
