After a while, he reported back: "The place where I was ordered to watch and listen to the golden light is the Dongsheng Divine Continent on the border of the small country of Haidong Aolai. There is a flower and fruit mountain. There is an immortal stone on the mountain. An egg is laid on the stone, and a stone monkey is seen weathered. I worship there. From all directions, the golden light shines through the Dou Mansion. Now that you are eating water and food, the golden light will subside. "The Jade Emperor expressed his kindness and said: "The things below are born from the essence of heaven and earth." That monkey is there. In the mountains, I can walk and jump, eat grass and trees, drink from springs, collect mountain flowers, and forage for tree fruits; I can keep company with wolves and insects, a group of tigers and leopards, deer as my friends, and macaques as my relatives; In Youfeng Cave. It is true that "there are no Jiazi in the mountains, and the year is unknown even when the weather is cold." When the weather is hot, I escape from the summer heat with a group of monkeys and play under the shade of pine trees. You can see him jumping up and down trees, picking flowers and fruits; throwing marbles, running around in the sand, and building pagodas; catching dragonflies and beating wax wax; praying to God and worshiping Bodhisattva; pulling kudzu vines and weaving grass? Catching lice and biting fleas; arranging sweaters and picking nails; rubbing and rubbing; pushing and pressing; pulling and pulling, letting him be stubborn under the green pine forest and washing by the green water stream. . A group of monkeys played for a while and then went to take a bath in the mountain stream. Seeing the rushing water in the stream, it really looked like rolling melons splashing. An ancient saying goes: Birds have their own language, and animals have their own language. All the monkeys said: "I don't know where this water comes from. We have nothing to do today, so we walked up the stream to look for the source, and let's go have some fun!" With a shout, they all dragged men and women, and called their brothers to shout. Brothers, come together and climb the mountain along the stream until you reach the source, where you will find a waterfall and a spring. But I saw that group of white rainbows rising, and thousands of snowflakes flying in the waves. The sea breeze blows constantly, and the moon shines on the river. The air-conditioning divides the green hills, and the remaining flow moistens the green hills. The gurgling waterfall looks like a hanging curtain. Extended information The author of the 100-chapter version of "Journey to the West" in the Ming Dynasty was originally believed to be Qiu Chuji. This theory was self-defeating with Qian Daxin's disclosure of the original book of "Journey to the West by Changchun Master". Another new theory emerged during the Qianlong reign. Wu Yuqi, a scholar born in Huai'an, Jiangsu Province, believed that the author of the 100-chapter version of "Journey to the West" was Wu Cheng'en, a native of his hometown in the Ming Dynasty. In the fourth volume of "Shanyang Zhiyi" written by him, it is said: "Mr. Tianqi Jiu Zhili (referring to Wu Chengen) is the leader of the modern literary garden... and "Journey to the West" recorded in "Huaixian Wenmu" is written by him. ...There are many dialects of my hometown in the book, which are undoubtedly from Huai people." This refers to the "Huai Xian Wenmu" in Volume 19 of "Huai'an Prefecture" written by Ming Qi, which contains "Wu Cheng'en's "Sheyang Collection" in four volumes. "Preface to the Spring and Autumn Biography, "Journey to the West"", which includes works titled "Journey to the West"; at the same time, there are many northern Jiangsu dialects in the chapter novel "Journey to the West". From these two points, it is determined that Wu Chengen's novel "Journey to the West" is The author of "Notes". Later, Lu Xun's "A Brief History of Chinese Novels" and Hu Shi's "A Textual Research on Journey to the West" both adopted Wu Yuqi's statement and made a review of Wu Chengen's deeds. From then on, the fact that Wu Chengen wrote Journey to the West has almost become common knowledge in literature. However, there is still controversy in academic circles. "Whether the 100-chapter version of "Journey to the West" was written by Wu Cheng'en" points out that in the more than 300 years from the publication of "Journey to the West" to the 1920s, various publications were either signed by Zhu Dingchen as editor, or only by the master of Huayang Dongtian. The manuscript was not signed with the author's name, or was written by Qiu Chuji, and none of them recognized Wu Cheng'en's copyright. Hu Shi's 1921 "Preface to Journey to the West" also said that this work "was written by an unknown novelist after the middle of the Ming Dynasty." Later, Mr. Lu Xun strongly advocated that Wu Chengen said that Hu Shi had obtained the materials copied by Lu Xun to him, and he also held this opinion in "A Textual Research on "Journey to the West"". Zhang Peiheng pointed out that in the Qianqingtang bibliography of Huang Yuji in the early Qing Dynasty, "Wu Chengen's Journey to the West" was recorded in the geography category of Volume 8 of the History Department. It can be seen that Wu Chengen's "Journey to the West" recorded in the aforementioned "Huai'an Fuzhi" should be a geography It is a kind of travelogue rather than a chapter novel, and Wu Chengen once served as an official in Prince Jing's Mansion. His journey from his hometown Huai'an in northern Jiangsu to Prince Jing's Mansion in Qizhou, Hubei can be said to be a "Journey to the West." Judging from the dialect, the author of Journey to the West may not be Wu Chengen from northern Jiangsu. The article has examined the hundreds of chapters of "Journey to the West" that "actually the dialects of the northern Yangtze River region coexist with the Wu dialect". It has also examined the passage "Dream of Killing the Jinghe Dragon" quoted in "Yongle Dadian" that "the original exists in northern Jiangsu." There are no dialects of Wu dialect in the region, but there is no dialect of Wu dialect. After the author of the Hundred Chapter Editions processed it, the dialect of Wu dialect was added, but the dialect of northern Jiangsu region was not added."Huang Yongnian agreed with Zhang Peiheng's point of view and added additional arguments: First, the original version of the Hundred Chapter Edition should have appeared in the early years of Jiajing, and Wu Chengen was generally estimated to be born in 1500 (the thirteenth year of Hongzhi in the Ming Dynasty). He was only 22 or 23 years old in 1991 (the first year of Jiajing), and he wrote a large volume of Journey to the West with hundreds of chapters and twenty volumes. Moreover, he wrote such a "clear understanding of worldly affairs" and "sophisticated human feelings" that the possibilities are very limited. Secondly, Huang Shoucheng noticed that the chapter 29 of the 100-chapter version reads, "The river that escapes difficulties flows to the country, and the Eight Precepts of Cheng'en turn to the mountains and forests." If Wu Cheng'en is really the author, the two words "Cheng'en" should not be used here. The word "Bajie" is used in front of the word "Bajie", which has an unsightly image. The popularity of Wu Chengen's "Journey to the West" is not accidental and is supported by abundant evidence. The main ones are: Wu Chengen once served in the Jingxian Palace of Hubei Province, which meets the conditions pointed out in "Journey to the West" as "Journey to the West came from the vassal palace"; "Huai'an Palace Chronicles" about Wu Chengen's life and personality, especially "Wu Chengen wrote "Journey to the West" has clear records; Wu Chengen's "Manuscripts of Mr. Sheyang" (later compiled as "Wu Chengen's Collected Poems and Essays") and "Journey to the West" have multiple mutual corroborations; "Journey to the West" has many geographical features of Huaihai, such as the story of Sun Wukong The prototype is the Huaihe River divine monkey Wuzhi Qi, and Tang Monk's native place is Juxianzhuang, Haizhou, etc. However, after careful consideration from an academic point of view, the theory of "Wu's work" is difficult to become a final conclusion.
