China's traditional culture is like a few treasures.

"Those who are good at asking questions are like attacking a difficult tree, and those who are not good at asking questions do the opposite." We have a long history of 5,000 years, and the social form has undergone a long evolution. During this period, we left many unique cultural treasures. It is precisely because of the accumulation of these traditional cultures that we can stand in the forest of world civilization. Influenced by these cultures, we know what "a gentleman does something, a villain does everything". It can be said that China traditional culture is the ideological source of Chinese civilization.

When Internet technology and media socialization are not developed, most people's entertainment is watching TV series, so a large part of China's traditional culture is presented in the form of TV series, which is deeply loved by people. However, inheriting and carrying forward China's traditional culture is not smooth sailing, rain or shine, and going forward bravely. For example, there is a big loophole in The Journey to the West, which was pointed out by primary school students. Experts and scholars bluntly said: No one has found it for more than 400 years. What the hell is going on here?

One,

find a loophole

The Journey to the West, a well-known fantasy novel, is called the four classical novels of China together with A Dream of Red Mansions, Romance of the Three Kingdoms and Water Margin. The book tells the story of four great masters of the Tang Dynasty, Tang Priest and his disciples, who went to the Western Heaven to learn Buddhist scriptures, which embodies the theme of hating evil, punishing evil and promoting good. The content of this book is easy to understand, easy for readers to understand, deeply loved by the public and suitable for people of all ages to read. The book combines the essence of Confucianism, Taoism and Buddhism, and satirizes the feudal rule at that time in combination with various disputes in the world.

Journey to the West has also been compiled into various versions of TV dramas for people to enjoy. Among them, the 86th edition of Journey to the West is a classic among the classics, which can be said to be children's memories of many people. Every summer vacation, the TV station will always replay it. The eighty-one difficulties inside can be described as a few treasures, and the plot is also relished. Later, a pupil named Ma Siqi discovered one of the problems, which attracted people's attention and even shocked experts and scholars.

Second, the specific content of the vulnerability.

Ma Siqi had doubts when watching TV series. At first, she thought she was mistaken. Later, she carefully checked the information in books and online, asked her seniors and sisters, read the original Journey to the West many times, compared it many times, and finally reached a conclusion. There is a hidden loophole in The Journey to the West. Many experts have not found the problem, but a pupil of 1 1 will find it and write it in her composition.

In The Journey to the West, the Tang Priest and his disciples traveled all the way from the Eastern Tang Dynasty to the Western Heaven to learn Buddhist scriptures. They all eat steamed bread and vegetarian food, not meat. As we all know, the western paradise described in the book is India today. Such a long distance from China to India requires not only a lot of physical strength, but also a strong will, which is impossible for ordinary people to complete.

How do Tang Priest and his disciples use these vegetarian dishes to supplement energy? Secondly, from China to India, people's eating habits and living customs are different, and people in each region have their own eating cultural habits. How do Tang Priests and Apprentices Adapt to the Dietary Cultural Habits in Different Regions? This is a loophole about Journey to the West discovered by primary school student Ma Siqi. The proposal of this loophole surprised the experts because they didn't notice it at all.

Third, the reasons for the loopholes.

The author of Journey to the West is from Jianghuai area, and people in this area have the habit of eating vegetarian dishes and fasting. The eating habits of Tang Priest and his disciples in the novel are the external expression of the author's life. The author wrote it according to his living habits. The author writes in the book that the food of Tang Priest's mentoring along the way was vegetarian dishes and vegetarian dishes. Although it is really illogical, these records can help people understand the diet and cultural habits of people in Jianghuai area hundreds of years ago, which makes up for some historical gaps.
