In fact, in real history, there is also a story about Tang Priest's pilgrimage to the West, but Tang Priest went through some difficulties and obstacles all the way, went to a foreign country, and then came back with certain scriptures. In other words, there is actually no the Monkey King in history, and the Monkey King is just a fictional character in The Journey to the West, but we all know that the Monkey King plays a very important role in The Journey to the West. That is to say, in fact, the story of the Monkey King in Journey to the West is of great help to the Buddhist scriptures. After all, he is the first 1 disciple of the Tang Priest, and helped him solve many monsters on his way to the West to learn from the scriptures.
Besides, the Monkey King actually jumped out from a crack in the stone. His life experience, which we can actually see in The Journey to the West, is a monkey jumping out of a crack in a stone. Finally, he is very powerful. Although he didn't make a scene in Heaven, he accompanied the Tang Priest to learn Buddhist scriptures all the way, but the Monkey King, as a very important person, was actually very helpful to learn Buddhist scriptures in the West.
However, the Tang Priest in history was not so lucky. Historically, Tang Priest had no one to help him learn from the scriptures. In other words, although there were people who learned from the West in history, he also went through many difficulties and dangers, went abroad and obtained certain classics. ? So in other words, the Monkey King didn't really exist in history.
