Journey to the West: Sha Wujing, the Undercover Agent

He has many identities: the Curtain-Raising General demoted from the Heavenly Court, a man-eating monster in the Flowing Sand River, and the monk-protector on the journey to retrieve the scriptures.

He has neither the legendary exploits of Sun the Great Sage when he wreaked havoc in Heaven nor the glorious past of Marshal Tianpeng. He seems utterly insignificant, but in truth, it is all a cover so he can carry out his mission for the Heavenly Court.

Because he is a spy planted by the Heavenly Court in the scripture-seeking party, tasked with stopping Mahayana Buddhism from spreading to the Great Tang in the Eastern Land!

Don't believe me? Then listen, dear reader, as I tell you the whole story.
