Is Bailongma Tang Seng s apprentice?

The first was, and then it was swallowed by the little white dragon, it was Guanyin, who made it, yes.

The white dragon horse is the leader of Tang Seng and is the master of Tang Seng.

The white dragon horse is very handsome, it is more powerful than Tang Seng. Not Tang Seng's apprentice.

In the original book, the white dragon horse was lit only after being caught by Guanyin after eating Tang Seng's white horse. Later, in order to compensate Tang Seng for being willing to incarnate as a horse, but no formal apprenticeship appeared.

Bailongma is not Tang Seng's apprentice! However, I took refuge in Buddhism! This matter, the original book is very clear.

In the eighth round, the Bodhisattva stepped forward and said: "The poor monk led the Buddha's decree to go to the east to find the scriptures, and when the road was suspended by the evil dragon, he came to play, spare his life, give the poor monk, and teach him to do a leg with the person who learned the scriptures." "It's just a foot force, a horse, I didn't say that I would be an apprentice to Elder Tang.

15 times, the Bodhisattva said: "That dragon is my own Jade Emperor, asking him to be here, specifically to make a foot force for the scriptures." How do you think that the mortal horse from the east can experience all these thousands of rivers and mountains?

How did you get to the Buddha Land of Lingshan? You have to get this dragon horse to get it. ”

In the original work, there is no basis for Tang Seng to accept Bailongma as an apprentice. Tang Seng accepted apprentices, not his own initiative, but the Bodhisattva's careful arrangement. When the Bodhisattva found Wukong, Bajie and Sha Seng, they all told them to "wait for the master", but the Bodhisattva did not let the little white dragon wait for the master there, but just asked him to wait for the person to learn the scriptures.

Tang Seng gave his approved apprentices all legal names, but did not give Bailongma legal names.

Bailongma considered himself to be Tang Seng's apprentice, but he did not go through the formal ordination ceremony, Tang Seng did not admit it, and only knew that he was a horse.

Personally, I think that Bailongma is not Tang Seng's apprentice. The Tang Seng scripture study group is like a scientific research team, which has come together in order to accomplish a common goal. Objectives of the Scripture Study Group:

Escort Tang Seng to the West Heaven safely and retrieve the true scriptures. Tang Seng, the project leader and the project itself. Sun Wukong, the project manager, is responsible for protecting Tang Seng's personal safety, as well as daily eating, drinking, and Lazar.

Tang Seng is a big apprentice. Zhu Bajie, the backbone of the team's business, is responsible for carrying the burden of Tang Seng's daily necessities, and at the same time assisting Sun Wukong to protect Tang Seng's safety. Tang Seng is the second apprentice.

Monk Sha, a team business expert, is responsible for managing Tang Seng's mounts and assisting Bajie and Wukong to protect Tang Seng's safety. Tang Seng three apprentices. Bailongma is responsible for helping Tang Seng complete tens of thousands of kilometers of travel.

Tang Seng mount.

No, the white dragon horse ate Tang Seng's horse, so he barely had his own place in the scripture learning team, and eating the white horse was the idea that Guanyin Bodhisattva gave to the little white dragon. In Guanyin's view, once the scriptures are successful, it will inevitably greatly enhance the power of Buddhism. Equivalent to the project of the century.

This kind of good thing, it is acceptable to arrange one of your own people to go in, even if it is not compiled at the beginning. There have always been four masters and apprentices, and there is no such thing as five masters and apprentices.

The white dragon horse is Tang Seng's second apprentice. The white dragon horse is a character in the famous novel "Journey to the West". The white dragon horse was originally the third prince of the Dragon King of the West Sea, because he set fire to the pearl on the palace, and was played by the Dragon King of the West Sea to the heavenly court, sued for disobedience, the Jade Emperor hung it in the air, beat three hundred, and was punished in a few days.

Later, because of the appearance of Guanyin Bodhisattva in the South China Sea, he was exempted from the death penalty, and was relegated to the Eagle Stream of Snake Pan Mountain and waited for Tang Seng to learn the scriptures.

In the process of research and interpretation of "Journey to the West", people have always been fond of the images of its protagonists, because the meanings carried by these images are extremely profound, as Zhang Shushen of the Qing Dynasty pointed out: "The so-called ape and horse, the sand monk of the eight precepts, do not know its purpose." ”

In the works, the white dragon horse is usually an insignificant image in the eyes of people, he is a neglected image, the most typical example is that everyone often refers to the people who go to the west to learn scriptures as the four Tang monks and apprentices.

Although the white dragon horse is not as vivid as the images of Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie, he is an indispensable member of this collective. Among the scripture-learning collectives, the white dragon horse is the one who has been on the westward journey for the longest time, and is the most faithful actor and witness of the cause of learning scriptures.

Zhu Bajie Gao Laozhuang, sand hates the quicksand river, Sun Wukong Wuzhi Mountain.

1. Hike the mountain to collect big apprentices, called walkers, and the law name is Wukong;

2, the eagle sorrow stream collects the white dragon horse, 3, Gao Laozhuang accepts two apprentices, called the eight precepts, and the law name is Wu Neng;

4. Liushahe accepts three apprentices, called Sha Monk, and his Dharma name is Wujing.

Tang monk in the previous life for the Buddha's second apprentice Jin Chanzi, because of the contempt for Buddhism and was relegated to the lower realm by the Buddha, under the guidance of Guanyin Bodhisattva, the purpose of the Tang Dynasty, not far to the west to seek the true scriptures, on the way to receive Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajie, Sha Wujing three apprentices, through eighty-one difficulties, and finally obtained the true scriptures to return to the Tang Dynasty, cultivated the positive fruit, by the Buddha as "Zhantan Merit Buddha".

Strictly speaking, the white dragon horse is not Tang Seng's apprentice, but only Tang Seng's foot strength, which can also be said to be a mount. Why? There are several main reasons for this.

1. At the beginning, Guanyin Bodhisattva said that he would let the little white dragon be the foot power of the Tang monk, but he did not let him be the apprentice of the Tang monk, and he did not mention the little white dragon's apprenticeship later.

2, Xiao Bailong is a member after Sun Wukong, and he joined the group earlier than Zhu Bajie and Sha Seng, according to the order, Xiao Bailong should be the second senior brother, but in fact, Zhu Bajie is the second senior brother.

3, Tang Seng accepted the three apprentices, all of whom have great backgrounds, Monkey King, Marshal Tianpeng, and General Rolling Blinds, and Xiao Bailong is only the third prince of the Dragon King, and it seems that they cannot be compared.

4. After Tang Seng completed the scriptures, when he returned to Tang Wang, he introduced three apprentices, and only said that the white dragon horse was not the little white horse before, and did not mention the apprentices.

5, Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajie, and Sha Wujing are all from the "Wu" generation, but Bailongma does not have the name of the "Wu" generation.

Of course, you may also say, then why did Bailongma call Sun Wukong the senior brother and Zhu Bajie the second senior brother on the way to learn the scriptures? Personally, I think that is a kind of respect, polite words, and it is obviously inappropriate to call him by his name, what do you say?.

No, there are 4 "people" for master and apprentice"
