In the Journey to the West novel, one of the protagonists, Zhu Bajie, was formerly Marshal Tianpeng. Marshal Tianpeng was one of the important gods of the Taoist Shenxiao sect; his original image can be said to have great supernatural powers.

In the Journey to the West novel, one of the protagonists Zhu Bajie was formerly known as Marshal Tianpeng . Marshal Tianpeng is one of the important immortals of the Taoist Shenxiao sect; his original image can be said to be of vast supernatural power and majesty. Taishang North Pole Conquers Demons and Kills Demons with Curse" also describes the image of Canopy: "Three heads and six arms, holding an axe, bow and arrow, sword, dagger, halberd, and rope. He is fifty feet long. He is dressed in black, has a black crown and gold armor, and has a collar. There are thirty-six thousand divine soldiers."

How many of Marshal Tianpeng's main troops will there be? Tiangang Great Sage, Hunyuan Yiqi Dutong General, Four-Eyed Old Man Thunder Killing General, Jiutian Child Killing General, Gao Diao Beiweng Shen General, Long-headed Giant Beast General ( Four Sea Dragon King ), Mighty Sword God King General (Wind Boyu division), Wuding Dusi, Qizheng Baling, Zhiyue General, and Twelve Zhifu all carry out the orders of Emperor Ziwei.

Moreover, among the Taoist beliefs of the Shenxiao sect; its Canopy Curse, Canopy Talisman, Canopy Seal, Canopy Bell, Canopy Divine Ruler, Canopy Dafa, etc., can be said to be very comprehensive, and their functions are empowered. Complete, and even wrote a poem to praise him:

"He is a thousand feet long and has a square mouth, and his four heads and eight arms show his divine light. He holds a golden ruler to shake the imperial bell, and a bronze tooth and an iron melon to destroy evil madness. He holds a thunderbolt and kills the wok in his hand. Tang, thunder and lightning send out the sky. The vegetation is scorched and destroyed, the mountains are broken and the bridges are broken. The rivers and seas are turned upside down, and hundreds of ghosts are captured to eliminate the disaster. "

It can be seen from here that the original Marshal Tianpeng was very powerful. He could almost be said to be a prince, with many soldiers and generals, and he was not an ordinary person! But during the Journey to the West period, Marshal Tianpeng, who was demoted to the mortal world, not only gave birth to the wrong pig fetus, but also lost most of his magical powers and many of his positions. In the novel, there are only 80,000 Tianhe sailors left to command!

So where did the rest of his tribe go? The answer is that it was taken away. Why was it taken away? The author speculates that with the fixed positions of permanent positions in heaven, but as monks continue to achieve enlightenment and become immortals, and when a person ascends before the chickens and dogs, the new immortals also have to be assigned positions and assigned personnel to obey. , had no choice but to continue to divide the old troops into enfeoffments, similar to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty's push for favors . The original great generals remained unchanged except for their names, but their powers and subordinates became more and more subdivided, and the types of work became more and more detailed.

On the other hand, it shows that the authority of the Heavenly Court Jade Emperor as the central emperor is becoming more and more important, and the Jade Emperor is becoming more and more centralized. Therefore, the generals who were dictatorial in the early days became almost sinecures. In order to prevent the tail from being too big and plotting evil, I had no choice but to move some of the top officials back and forth. Look, Marshal Tianpeng commanded 360,000 divine soldiers in the early days. Later, he became the commander of the navy. Many of the early generals were gone, but their names were still there. But it's just a name.

The weapon that used to be handy was inexplicably replaced by Shangbaoqin gold palladium! The book introduces that this thing was given by the Jade Emperor and was made by Taishang Laojun himself, but this thing was dug very well, and it is obviously not good at making weapons, especially the three-headed and six-armed magical power is gone. Do you think it is miserable? But Zhu Bajie has no mission and has been seized of power. Obviously, there are secrets that cannot be told!
