However, The Journey to the West, as one of the four classical novels, is not a beautiful children's story, and in the original, Nezha was not resurrected by Taiyi, but Tathagata. Therefore, when we interpret The Journey to the West, we should be faithful to it everywhere. Today, the author's point of view is that the seven spider spirits are not just the seven fairies. The seven fairies exposed their ugly spider faces from the very beginning, so that the Monkey King would be angry with the cursed monster. Many readers will exclaim, won't they? Don't worry, let's read the original.
On the fifth visit to The Journey to the West, the seven fairies came to the Flat Peach Garden to pick peaches at the orders of the Queen Mother. At this moment, the Monkey King has had a big peach and is becoming a 7 cm villain sleeping on a branch full of leaves. I know nothing about the seven fairies picking peaches on the orders of the queen mother.
After reporting the land, because the Monkey King could not be found, the Seven Fairys went to the Flat Peach Garden to pick peaches. According to the original work, the seven fairies first picked two baskets from the former tree, then three baskets from one tree, and then from the latter tree, only to find that the flowers and fruits on that tree were sparse, with only a few hairs and green skins. It turns out that the Monkey King ate all the cooked food. The seven fairies looked around and saw a half-red and half-white peach on the south branch.
The woman in Tsing Yi tore off the branches with her hands, and the woman in red took them off, but put them away. So the Great Sage has changed. He was sleeping on this branch and was awakened by him. The Great Sage showed his true colors and pulled out a golden hoop in his ear. In a flash, the bowl was thick and thin. He shouted, "You are the monster. How dare you steal my peaches!" "
In our impression, the seven fairies didn't take the Monkey King seriously, whether it was an animated cartoon or a TV series that caused havoc in heaven. However, in the original Journey to the West, there was a dramatic scene in which the seven fairies knelt down together: "The Great Sage calmed down. We are not monsters, but seven-clothed fairies sent by the Queen Mother to pick peaches, open a treasure house and make flat peaches for a meeting. At this time, I met the land and other gods in our garden for the first time, but I couldn't find the Great Sage. I'm afraid the imperial edict of the Queen Mother will be late. Before the Great Sage, I'll pick peaches here first. I hope I can forgive you. " Hearing this, the Great Sage laughed.
Let's carefully analyze this paragraph, which is actually very sinister and intriguing.
The first strange thing is that from this kneeling action, let's take a look at the seventy-second journey to the west. The seven spider spirits also like to kneel down for Pig Bajie and centipede spirits, but they hate the Monkey King with their teeth.
Let's look at the second strange place. Seven fairies come to pick peaches. They picked two baskets of peaches that ripened in 3,000 years and three baskets of peaches that ripened in 6,000 years. These two baskets and three baskets are a bit strange. Did the seven of them pick five baskets of peaches? Or everyone picked five baskets of peaches.
If everyone picks five baskets of peaches, seven people will pick 35 baskets of peaches, but this is not right. Even if a person has two arms, it is inconvenient to pick peaches.
If seven people pick five baskets at a time, this statement is even more wrong. Because the author has analyzed in the previous article, the 9000-year-old peach is for five elders, five stars, eight holes in the top, three cleanness, four emperors, Taiyixian, etc., and eight holes in the middle, jade emperor, nine base and Haiyuexian; Under the eight holes, the ghost head and the fairy on earth ate it. The 6,000-year-old peach is dedicated to all palaces and temples. Peaches matured in 3000 years were paid to 400,000 heavenly soldiers in Sitianmen and various handyman waiters in the sky. How many peaches can there be in five baskets? At most, they only picked two baskets of peaches matured in 3000 years, but three baskets of peaches matured in 6000 years. Why?
The author thinks that two baskets of peaches matured in 3,000 years are their wages, and three baskets of peaches matured in 6,000 years are the wages of people in their department. Since they are picking peaches for the Flat Peach Festival, it shows that they are mainly picking big peaches this time. But there are so many senior fairies, even if there are seven fairies, two arms are not enough for everyone. If you reach the sky, you will pick nine baskets of peaches. That's definitely impossible, unless they don't only have two hands, or they can fly.
I have seen fruit farmers picking fruits in orchards. This workload is very heavy. At present, some fruit farmers use drones or train monkeys to pick fruits, but the amount of picking is still not up to the desired amount. Why did God send seven beautiful women to pick fruit? Unless, they are very efficient in picking fruits and have a lot of hands. They are spider elves.
Don't think that they have become seven beauties. They are actually animals practicing human form, not people. So they are usually beautiful women, and picking peaches becomes spider essence.
Only 8 hands of spider essence can improve the efficiency of picking peaches. And it's not just the seven fairies with 56 hands. Just look at Spider-Man and you will know that their nets can also improve the efficiency of picking peaches. Maybe their baskets are made of cobwebs. According to network information, spider silk is five times harder than steel wire with the same diameter.
In addition, the author has a piece of evidence that the Monkey King spent hundreds of years with animals in Huaguoshan, but spent more time with people when he was an apprentice than when he was an official. This time, it's a beautiful woman picking peaches. Even if the Monkey King gets up again, he won't easily say that people are monsters. Unless he is a monster.
Let's look at the 72nd Journey to the West, which is about the spider essence.
There is a key saying in the land of Pansiling: "Since the fairy came here to live and occupied his dirty spring, the fairy never competed with him again and gave it to him for no reason." The land of Pansiling has never been seen before. Seven fairies and spider spirits compete for polluted springs.
What he saw, if it weren't for the spider spirit bathing, if it weren't for the seven fairies bathing.
In any case, the Seven Fairys and the Spider-Fairy never appear in the spring in Zhuo Wei at the same time. There are seven fairies and seven spider spirits. The seven fairies are beautiful, and so are the spider spirits.
The seven fairies love to take a bath, and so does the spider spirit. The seven fairies are divided into colors, and the spider essence is also divided into colors. The seven fairies love to kneel, and so does the spider spirit. The seven fairies only need to wash the dirty spring, and the spider essence only needs to wash the dirty spring. Spider spirit is not afraid of the seven fairies, nor has it been framed together. Just as Otani has never been framed with Diga Altman.
There are more fierce materials. The seven worms adopted by Spider Spirit said, "I am the son of the seven fairies. You bully my mother and dare to hit me in ignorance! Don't go! Be careful! " The son of Spider Spirit calls Spider Spirit the Seven Fairys. With spider spirit's insatiable greed and fear of death, how dare you seize the polluted spring? How dare you pretend to be the seven fairies and take a bath in Zhuo Weichun?
No, the seven fairies are seven spiders, and the seven spiders are seven fairies.
Moreover, in our impression, the Monkey King later practiced the technique of fixing the seven fairies. Why? We will discuss it in a later article. However, the hatred between the Monkey King and the seven spider spirits is a knot. No wonder later, whether the Buddhist scripture team was in Panziling or Huanghuaguan, Spider Spirit was trying to let the Monkey King die. The Monkey King finally killed them too.
