How about giving a good review? Let me start by saying something. A solitary monk, wandering the Western Regions for decades, rarely returned. He possessed three abilities: Wukong, Wuneng, and Wujing. The journey was arduous, fraught with countless tribulations. He killed, indulged in fine wine and beautiful women. Slaying demons was easy, but overcoming tribulations was difficult.
"What a brilliant Wukong! All your 'enlightenment' turns to the extreme, it's all meaningless. What the hell are you 'enlightened' about?" I love this line the most. Also, this book is Sun Wukong's autobiography; anyone interested in this genre should check it out!
One thought of Buddha, one thought of demon; lay down the butcher's knife and instantly become a Buddha. Nonsense, Buddha is inherently demonic. "No Buddha until hell is empty," a lie; why would hell need Buddha's salvation? There are already six realms of reincarnation, ten courts of hell, judges of life and death; why would Buddha need salvation?
Hold on, monkey. This Tang Monk saves all beings. The gods and Buddhas in the sky wept and lamented.
I stumbled upon this book by chance; to be honest, it's impossible to find books through recommendations or by clicking on them these days. But this one truly surprised me—it's unconventional and genuine. It goes against the grain, and while some might consider it unorthodox, I love it. Rigid thinking and lifestyles need a book like this to break the mold, and this book is like a unique spark in the sky—a rocket, soaring into the heavens. By the way, this book has been around for three years.
This is another excellent book on the Journey to the West theme after *The Legend of Wukong*. The monkey in *The Legend of Wukong* is arrogant, aloof, and the Great Sage Equal to Heaven. The monkey in this book is merely a small demon with no distinguishing features except for his birth; cowardly, confused, resentful, mad, and unyielding… just a small demon struggling against so-called destiny.
I read it four or five years ago, and when I suddenly remembered it, I read it again. Back then, I didn't understand it; I just found the book sharp and cutting. Now, however, I understand a lot more. Who wouldn't want to bend down and brew wine to sell for money to buy peach blossoms? And who can bend down and brew wine to sell for money to buy peach blossoms?
The writing is overflowing with genuine emotion, and every character is vividly portrayed. It brings tears to my eyes no matter how many times I read it. It's the best novel I've ever read!
In the end, even the monkey couldn't escape the Buddha's scheme, but none of that matters anymore.
This novel is purely fantasy. Sun Wukong's initial role is that of a timid underling, but he gradually fights his way up to the Heavenly Court with his master, eventually becoming a true demon king… This book is extremely anti-social, completely exposing the hypocrisy of Journey to the West. But the savagery of his beastly heart isn't bad, is it? (This is an older book, lacking novel settings, but its imaginative plot is definitely not small.)
