The twelfth chapter of "Journey to the West". Xuanzang built the conference with sincerity, and Guanyin manifested the golden cicada.
Among them, Tang Taizong has been mentioned many times, and it is written at the end: Taizong smiled: "Royal brother, this time, when can I go back to the West Heaven?" Sanzang said: "Only in three years, go back to the kingdom." Taizong said: "The days are long, the mountains are far away, and the royal brother can enter this wine: I would rather love the soil in my hometown, and I don't love ten thousand taels of gold in my hometown." "Sanzang Fang understood the meaning of twisting the soil, drank it all up with thanks, and went out of the customs with thanks. King Tang drove back.
The so-called Tang Taizong refers to the second emperor of the Tang Dynasty, Li Shimin, after Tang Seng said goodbye to Li Shimin, he came to the Five Elements Mountain to rescue Sun Wukong.
Sun Wukong has been pressed under the Five Elements Mountain for more than 500 years, when he was just suppressed, let alone Tang Seng, even the Tang Dynasty has not yet been established, so what dynasties have Sun Wukong experienced in the past 500 years?
If you want to know what dynasties Sun Wukong has experienced after being crushed under the Five Elements Mountain for 500 years, you must first look at when Sun Wukong was crushed under the Five Elements Mountain.
In fact, if you really have to calculate carefully, why has Sun Wukong been suppressed for 500 years?
The twelfth chapter of "Journey to the West" clearly mentions that Tang Seng set off in the thirteenth year of Zhenguan and went to the west to learn scriptures; The thirteenth year of Zhenguan, that is, 639 AD, if you push forward 500 years, it is 139 AD, which is the Eastern Han Dynasty.
But Sun Wukong was really pressed under the Five Elements Mountain during the Eastern Han Dynasty? The answer to this has to be found in the original book.
It is said that Tang Seng just embarked on the journey, and ushered in the first difficulty on the way to learn the scriptures, and encountered a fierce beast and a big insect in the mountains and forests, but fortunately the life-saving benefactor Liu Boqin arrived in time, so he failed to fall into the tiger's mouth.
Liu Boqin, a character in the classical novel "Journey to the West", appeared in the thirteenth episode of "Journey to the West", nicknamed Zhenshan Taibao, who lives at the junction of Shuangchaling and Liangjie Mountain, and his wife and mother, a family of three hunting for a living.
When Liu Boqin went into the mountains to hunt, he happened to meet Tang Seng and was almost eaten by a tiger, so he shot the tiger and brought Tang Seng home to entertain.
The next day was the death day of Liu Boqin's father, so he begged Tang Seng to spend more time for his father, Tang Seng readily agreed, and began to spend time for Liu Boqin's father.
At nightfall, Liu Boqin's father really gave the Liu family a dream, saying that he had been overtaken by the monks, eliminated the sinful karma, and was arranged by the king of Hades to be reincarnated in the rich and noble. For this, the Liu family is grateful.
Liu Boqin even sent Tang Seng all the way to the Two Realms Mountain before breaking up, this person is Tang Seng's earliest bodyguard.
Before parting, Liu Boqin said something like this to Tang Seng.
"This mountain was formerly known as the Five Elements Mountain, because my Tang Dynasty King conquered the West and Dingguo, and changed its name to Liangjie Mountain. In the early years, I heard the old man say: When Wang Mang usurped the Han Dynasty, the sky descended on this mountain, and a divine monkey was pressed down. He is not afraid of cold and heat, does not eat and drink, and has his own earth god to prison, teaching him to eat iron pills for hunger and drink copper juice thirsty; From the past to the present, I will not die of hunger and cold. ”
In other words, Sun Wukong was suppressed at the foot of the Five Elements Mountain when Wang Mang usurped the Han Dynasty.
The Han Dynasty was divided into the Western Han Dynasty and the Eastern Han Dynasty for 400 years.
At the end of the Western Han Dynasty, Wang Mang, a foreign relative, usurped the power of the Western Han Dynasty and established a new dynasty, so that the Western Han Dynasty was completely destroyed.
The New Dynasty was founded in 9 AD and fell in 23 AD.
Since Wang Mang usurped the Han Dynasty, Sun Wukong has been suppressed for more than 500 years, but for more than 600 years.
Poor Sun Dasheng was crushed under the Five Elements Mountain, and his brain was confused, and more than 600 years became 500 years, and he undercounted the accounts for more than 100 years.
The new dynasty established by Wang Mang did not last long, and was destroyed in just a dozen years; After that, Liu Xiu Kaiyuan founded the country, known as the Eastern Han Dynasty in history.
At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the world was in turmoil, and it came to the Three Kingdoms period, which was full of heroes. I just don't know if Liu Guan and Zhang's three brothers Taoyuan came over to give Sun Dasheng a peach to taste (funny).
After the Three Kingdoms, the Sima family unified the world and established the Western Jin Dynasty.
About 50 years of the Western Jin Dynasty, the rebellion of the Eight Kings and the destruction of the Western Jin Dynasty led to the destruction of the Western Jin Dynasty, and then it entered the era of the Five Hu Chaohua, also known as the Sixteen Kingdoms of the Eastern Jin Dynasty.
From the Five Chaos of China, to the Sixteen Kingdoms of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and then to the confrontation between the North and the South, the turbulent times that lasted for more than 300 years caused the people of the world to live in poverty. Fortunately, Emperor Wen of Sui Emperor Yang Jian unified the world and established the Sui Dynasty, which ended the troubled times that lasted for more than 300 years.
It's just that the Sui Dynasty, like the Qin Dynasty, died in the second and was seized by the Tang Dynasty. So far, during the period when Sun Wukong was pressed on the Five Elements Mountain, he has experienced the Eastern Han Dynasty, the Three Kingdoms, the Western Jin Dynasty, the Eastern Jin Dynasty, the Five Hu Chaohua, the Sixteen Kingdoms of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, the Northern and Southern Dynasties, the Sui Dynasty, and the Tang Dynasty.
