The Monkey King's Three Strikes Against the White Bone Demon Synopsis

The Tang Monk and his four disciples traveled to the West to get scriptures, and came to Wanzi Mountain after a difficult journey. Inside the cave of the mountain, there lived a thousand-year-old corpse demon, the White Bone Demon. She is brutal, cunning, and good at tricks, plotting to eat the flesh of the Longevity Monk in order to ensure immortality.

In order to let the scheme succeed, she disguised as a village girl but was recognized by the Monkey King, and then turned into an old crone, which was again recognized by the Monkey King. The Monkey King beat the demon to death twice, but the Tang Monk did not recognize the demon and blamed the Monkey King for injuring the mother and daughter, and for his wantonness in committing the murder.

The White Bone Demon took the form of an old man for the third time and came to the Tang Monk again. The Monkey King recognized the demon at once, and in order to protect his master's safety, he endured the pain of the spell and drove the demon away again. The White Bone Demon, having failed three times, again had a poisonous plan and assumed the name of Buddha to blame the Tang Monk for his improper handling of the situation.

The Tang Monk was indeed fooled, and the Monkey King was sent away. The Monkey King was unable to plead, so he returned to the Mountain of Flowers and Fruits. Afterwards, the Tang Monk and the Sha Monk were captured in a trap, and the Eight Precepts escaped, knowing that the demons were powerful, and ran to the Mountain of Flowers and Fruits to ask the Monkey King to come back to save his master.

Sun Wukong learned that his master was in trouble, and resolutely and the eight rings left the Mountain of Flowers and Fruits, and fought against the demon, and saved the Tang Monk, the master and the disciples and the four of them embarked on the journey to the west with one heart and one mind.

Story evaluation:

The three appearances of the White Bone Demon are in a hurry to shrink, and in the end, even the Longevity Monk did not touch the edge of the life, this end in the Journey to the West of the monsters is undoubtedly the most tragic.

Even the tiger force deer force sheep force these three beasts master, before being cut and plucked and cooked is not still in the Chechi country as a master for many years.

The reason for this, one is no background, Tongtian River's goldfish spirit is Guanyin's pet, ate the boy and girl will not be how, the Golden Doodle Cave's green ox spirit is the mount of the Supreme Lord Laojun, hit the heavenly soldiers and generals of the sky is also in vain.

Black-faced roc eagle root more hard, on the seniority of the Buddha called him uncle, who can take him how. The most opportunistic is the bottomless pit of the rat, private tablet to his godfather and godbrother Li Jing and Nezha burned a few low-quality incense, actually also get their shelter and escape a death.

In comparison, where did the White Bone Demon get these conditions. The other is that she is not a natural person, see people's watery red child and naive black bear monster, can not be a demon also for people to manage money and protect the yard.

The white bone spirit is so eerie that no one will take care of it, even if it is the Goddess of Mercy, will not be able to extend the hand of mercy. Combining the above two points, the white bone spirit was killed sharply and used as a typical public display, is obviously destiny.
