Nezha's personality characteristics

Nezha was born with miraculous powers, but he has been growing up in a dangerous environment.

He is brave, kind, positive and frank. This is his natural character. But more is what he learned from childhood to college. His mother taught him kindness, while Ji Fa brought him faith.

He has many problems that children have, and he also has many advantages that children have. Because of this, he grew up more amiable.

Another example is "Ina Journey to the West", which is about "Li Jing, the third son of King Tota". It looks like a teenager, but in fact it is miraculous. Participated in the crusade against the Monkey King, but was defeated.

Characters experience, Nezha.

Romance of the gods

Nezha is one of the mythical heroes described by the author in The Condor Heroes.

Nezha in the Romance of the Gods was the third son of Li Jing, the general of Chentangguan in the last years of Yin Shang Dynasty, and was the younger brother of He, who was reincarnated. Mother Mrs. Yin was pregnant for three years and six months and gave birth to a meatball. Excavate thought it was a monster, so he chopped it with his sword. The baby inside is Nezha. Later, the immortal Taiyi came to congratulate him, accepted him as a disciple and named him "Nezha". Once Nezha was playing in the East China Sea, and he had a conflict with Aobing, the third son of the East China Sea Dragon King. Not only did he kill him, but he also gave his dragon tendon as a belt to Li Jing.

The Dragon King of the East China Sea went to the Heavenly Palace and was beaten by the Dragon King at the gate of Baode. He also caught forty or fifty scales, dripping with blood, and looked delirious. He doesn't care about the disaster of "extinction", and he simply says that it is because of "impatience".

When the Four Seas Dragon King, Aoqin, Aorun and Aoshun jointly played the quasi-Jade Emperor and accused Li Jing and his wife, Nezha said, "One for one, I killed Aobing and Li [gèn], and I want to pay for my life. How can I have a son to implicate my parents! " In order not to make his parents tired, he cut off his arm, cut out his intestines and bones and gave them back to his parents. His filial piety touched the Dragon King, so Li Jing and his wife were forgiven.

The Dragon King went to Chentangguan to find fault. In order not to implicate his parents, Prince Nezha cut off the meat and gave it back to his parents, killing himself on the spot. Jing Li, on the other hand, could not understand it and continued to persecute his soul unreasonably. This is unbearable for Nezha. Then, Tai Yi created a new body for Nezha with lotus roots when Prince Zaiyi was banned by his father Li Jing and could not be resurrected.

After his rebirth, Nezha helped Jiang Ziya to crusade against Zhou Wang. With high-energy martial arts and magic weapons (hot wheels, Gankun Circle, Huntianling), he has made great achievements many times. And because it is the incarnation of lotus, it can be immune to viruses that infect humans.

In many stories, Li Jing is called "King Tota Li Tian" and Nezha is called "Three Princes of Nezha". Because of his powerful magic, he became the main general under the jade emperor.

[Literary Works] Journey to the West

Journey to the West is about the third son of King Li Jing of Tota.

When King Tota gave birth to this child, there was the word "Na" in the palm of his left hand and the word "Yi" in the palm of his right hand, hence the name Nezha. The princes of the Three Dynasties went into the sea to ask for trouble, stepped down from the Crystal Palace, and caught a dragon cramp into a sash [tāo]. The heavenly king knew that he was afraid of future trouble and wanted to kill it. Nezha was furious. He put the knife in his hand, cut the meat and gave it back to his mother. He also took out the bone and gave it back to his father, his father's blood and his mother's blood, and went to the Buddhist paradise. The Buddha was lecturing to all the Bodhisattvas when he heard someone shouting "Help!" At first glance, the Buddha knew that it was the soul of Nezha, that is, the lotus root was the bone and the lotus leaf was the clothes, and Nezha was saved by chanting the curse of resurrection. Kill the 96-hole demon with divine power, and then kill the heavenly king to avenge the evisceration. The heavenly king has no choice but to beg me for Buddha. The Tathagata attaches great importance to harmony and gives a golden pagoda, with exquisite relics and buddhas on it, which are gorgeous and bright. Tell Nezha to take Buddha as his father and explain his grievances. The demon who once went down to the 96th hole was named as the deity of the Santan Moon Society by the Jade Emperor. When he participated in the encirclement and suppression of Guo Huashan, he was defeated by the Monkey King in the third battle. After the Monkey King, when the Tang Priest went to fetch Buddhist scriptures, Nezha helped him many times, mainly to beat the king, capture Wang Mo, and surrender the golden-nosed white-haired mouse.

The final version of Nezha's Love of the Gods.

There are many records about Cha Na's stories in the Buddhist scriptures of the Song Dynasty, such as Quotations from a Zen Master in Fenyang, Quotations from a Monk in Mi 'an, Legend of Jingde Lantern, Five Lights in Huiyuan, etc., all of which record Cha Na's "three heads and six arms", "bone returning to father, flesh returning to mother" and weapons such as "tying hydrangea".

The Yuan zaju "Two Drunks Shooting and Locking the Mirror" put Nezha on the opera stage for the first time, saying that he was the Grand Marshal of Zhenyao. When he went out to fight, he had "three heads and six arms" and was majestic. In the Yuan Dynasty, "Searching for the Gods" contains the article "Prince Ina" in seven volumes. On the basis of referring to Buddhist scriptures, the editor did more imagination and wrote a relatively complete legend of Nezha, but Nezha described in it was a tall and brave general: "It was Luo Xian, who was commanded by the jade emperor, with a golden wheel on his head, three heads, nine eyes and eight arms, and his mouth was full of clouds." The image of Nezha is the earliest basis for the description of the three major religions in Exploring the Spirit. Although the main story is short, the plot is basically complete. The descriptions of Nezha, such as Yang Jingxian's The Journey to the West Zaju at the end of Yuan Dynasty, The Journey to the West in Wu Cheng'en, Xu's Romance of the Gods in Ming Dynasty and Yu Xiangdou's Travel Notes in the South, can all be regarded as perfunctory and deductive on this basis.

In the book The Influence of Buddhism and Taoism on China's Novels, Liu Cunren thinks that The Journey to the West is later than The Romance of Gods, and uses some plots of the latter, which is debatable, and the difference of Nezha's images in the two books can also be proved.

For the fourth time, The Journey to the West described Nezha as "holding six kinds of weapons, namely, slashing the demon sword, slashing the demon knife, tying the demon rope, lowering the demon pestle, hydrangea, putting on the steam wheel, forking the arm and hitting the face". Compared with the three religions' seeking for gods, Erlang's drunken shooting locked mirrors and Journey to the West, this image is somewhat distorted, with new swords, knives, pestles, ropes and hot wheels, but the main magic weapon hydrangea has been inherited. Moreover, the fifty-first and eighty-third chapters say that Nezha "conquered the 96-hole demon with divine power", which is in line with what Yuan people wrote. For the first time, Journey to the West turned an adult Nezha into a child Nezha, gave him a second round of wind and fire, and created a vivid and lovely young image. In the Romance of the Gods, Nezha's main magic weapon, the theory of reducing the demon and hydrangea, disappeared from him, and many weapons such as fire spear, Gankun circle, mixed Tencel, golden brick and Kowloon Shenhuo cover were added to it, shaping Nezha into an invincible, safe and brave little general.

The Romance of Gods further enriched the image of Nezha. Its author used three eyes to focus on the story of Nezha, including the reincarnation of Lingzhu, the birth of Lingzhu, the storm in the East China Sea, the accidental shooting of rocks, the evisceration of Yuping, the rebirth of lotus, and the bad relationship between father and son. It enriches the plot and image of the story, and finally makes the narrative of Nezha legend reach its peak, and finally makes Li take shape.

Our present Hyung-Sang Lee are all from the book Shen Feng, including the reincarnation of Lingzhu, the real master Taiyi, the Gankun circle, the Tencel, the flame gun and other weapons, which are not from The Journey to the West or Buddhist scriptures, but created by ourselves in China.
