The most dangerous Buddhist scripture-seeking team in history is also "defending themselves like jade" today
Xuanzang, an eminent monk of the Tang Dynasty and a direct disciple of Buddha, had great magical power - but had a fatal weakness: female sex.
Guanyin Bodhisattva arranged an "ultimate test" for him: three disciples, all women.
Senior Sister Sun Wukong: The arrogant girl with red hair and twin tails made a big fuss in the Heavenly Palace five hundred years ago. Today, she says "I don't care about Master" but her eyes always glance this way.
Second disciple Zhu Bajie: short-haired, black-skinned, innocent and naive, superficially frivolous but actually longing for true love. His biggest wish is to "sleep normally on Master's back".
The third disciple, Sha Wujing, is a sultry girl with a long black skull necklace. She is taciturn but has a secret diary that records every look and word of her master.
In order to protect Xuanzang's "Yuan Yang", the Buddha gave the Golden Hoop Mantra - whenever you recite the mantra when you are in danger of "losing it", the golden hoop will tighten and suppress your desires with pain.
But the problem is: the golden hoop curse only has a thousand uses. In just seven days, Xuanzang had used it ninety-seven times.
There are still ninety-nine and eighty-one difficulties ahead. Behind them are three beautiful girl apprentices who are eyeing them eagerly. Above their heads are the golden hoops that are decreasing in number——
Xuanzang: "Buddha, are you testing me or playing with me?"
To make matters worse, he found that his heart was sinking little by little.
When desire is no longer the enemy, when practice becomes coexistence, when the silhouettes of the three disciples become clearer and clearer——
Become a Buddha, or be with them?
This is a westward journey full of "troubles" and a journey of redemption about love and self.
