Some audience members shouted twice.

  Wu Shaobai nodded:

  "Actually, when you were in my cross talk, you knew that I said it more than once, listening to storytelling, listening to "Zan'er", and listening to comments. Because these stories have been turned over and over, in fact, the plot has long been fixed, but why? Can generations of people interpret this masterpiece? The key point is what I said before. Everyone’s reading, storytelling, and listening to the book are different, and the things they bring out are also different. The so-called literary charm, In fact, it's here. And the "Journey to the West" I'm going to talk about today, at least in my opinion, is somewhat different. Everyone knows that I'm still the one from Peking University who was about to be expelled from Peking University because of absenteeism for a year. student……"

  "Hehehe~"

  The audience laughed a few times.

  "And what I study is philosophy. But this doesn't prevent me from communicating with some gentlemen of Peking University, like studying with them. And why do I want to talk about "Journey to the West" today, the reason is that I and Zhang Wenquan, Dean of the Department of Literature of Peking University The professor once had such a discussion in private. The old man, as a literary master, talked about the four famous novels, and he put forward a lot of cutting-edge views, at least in my opinion.

  Whether it is discussing the fall of Buddhism, Daxing and Taoism in his book, or before and after the havoc in the heavenly palace, that is why Sun Wukong was named a Bi Ma Wen in the first place, and the peace of Taibaijinxing is really with everyone. As imagined, is it just an ordinary fairy?You must know that Taibaijinxing is also the five emperors of the heavenly court. The Yin-Yang family in the pre-Qin period believed that he was the god of martial arts, who was in charge of the affairs of war and led the killing.So immortal, but in the original work, he only acts as a peacemaker.

  But if you have read the original work in detail, you will know that Sun Wukong even dared to scold Tathagata in the street, calling him the nephew of the monster, and the Taishang Laojun, one of the three Taoists, dared to use his words to make fun of him, but only right. Taibaijinxing has always respected and good, why is this?

  The Jade Emperor is a boy in the Zixiao Palace, the ancestor of Hongjun Dao, and was ordered to hold the gods list to establish the Heavenly Court to promote the people's religion. He is really as dazed and incompetent as written in the novel, so unbearable?and many more.Professor Zhang provided me with a lot of perspectives on "Journey to the West" from another point of view.And now I see some thoughts in your eyes, so let's talk about this journey to the west today. "

  After all, he coughed lightly.

  "As for the book Journey to the West, I read it several times. I also found a few...how to say it, I don't know if it was missed by predecessors, or it was really deliberately dug a hole for future generations to ponder. For example, you can go to the original book and you will find out. Before the real and fake Monkey King, Sun Wukong's name for Zhu Bajie was always a nerd. The same is true in TV dramas. After the Monkey King, there is no longer the title of nerd in the original work. Monkey King's name for Zhu Bajie has changed from nerd to Bajie. It has been called until the finale..."

  "...????"

  Hearing his words, many people were stunned.

  But Wu Shaobai continued to say:

  "Also, in the chapter on the true and false Monkey King, the six-eared macaque said to him before being dragged by Sun Wukong to meet the Tathagata: You have to think about it, this time to meet the Tathagata, there will be many You can't bear the consequences... And then, when it comes to what we just said... Even Master Guanyin can't tell the difference between the two monkeys... In other words, the Bodhisattva can't tell the difference, and only the Buddha can come. And that six-eared macaque is one of the four god monkeys, and its abilities are not inferior to Sun Wukong. If he is a fake... Think about it, why did the six-eared macaque dare to meet the Tathagata with Sun Wukong? Or, it is confident The Tathagata could not recognize it, but the problem was what the Tathagata said: The Fa is not taught to the six ears. It proves that the Tathagata knew it long ago. This kind of self-confidence is completely unreasonable.

  "Hehehe~"

  "But at the same time, think about it, when you came back from the sutra for the first time, because Tang Seng forgot to say in the Buddha's foreword for the old king, he was thrown into the river. The sutra was destroyed, and when he returned to the west again, the Buddha sent people to guard it. At the side door, if he did not lead him through the main door, he would finally be able to retrieve the scriptures by taking a path. On the surface, the intention was to let him go through the last difficulty, but why did he enter through the side door? At that time, it was already Why did Sun Wukong, who was named the Buddha of Fighting Victory, take Tang Seng to a somersault, but Tang Seng did not refuse?"

  This……

  Listening to Wu Shaobai's words, everyone blinked.

  What Mr. Wu said makes sense...

  Indeed, after thinking about it so carefully now, there are indeed many places in the plot of Journey to the West that are contradictory and weird...

  Why didn't you find it before?

  In an instant, all appetites came up.

  When Wu Shaobai saw everyone thinking in silence, he threw out a strange point of view:

  "Even, sometimes when I read Journey to the West, I think... this whole world is false and absurd. According to our modern professional terms, the entire Journey to the West is nothing but the work of Tang Seng, a severe schizophrenic patient. An imaginary world. The big guys also know that I am a doctor, and the reason why I say this is very simple... The reason is Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajie, Sha Wujing, including Bai Longma and Tang Seng, the five masters and apprentices. Behaviour is too consistent with the symptoms of a person with schizophrenia..."

  I rely on...

  What did Mr. Wu say?

  ? ? ? ?

  Hearing that Wu Shaobai described Tang Seng as a schizophrenic, many people were completely stunned. .

Chapter 455

  "I see you...you don't seem to believe it?"

  Seeing everyone's absurd expressions, Wu Shaobai smiled.

  "Okay, then I'll give you an analogy. For example... there is actually no Journey to the West, and there is no Western Buddhist scriptures. Then... five masters and apprentices, will there be only Tang Seng from the beginning to the end? As for the other four All of them are just the inner demons of the Tang monk. The hardships on the way are also the tempering of the Tang monk's heart. If he keeps his mind, he will become Wukong, and if he ties his mind, he will turn into a dragon. The one who quits greed and sex is the Buddhist eight precepts, not killing. No anger, but realize the pure cause and effect. The body and mind are pure and go to the Buddha, and the place of the heart is the pure land of the Western Heaven. What do you think of my point of view?"

  "..."

  "..."

  "..."

  No one answered.

  Everyone was shocked and puzzled.

  The audience who originally listened to the excitement were completely stunned.

  At first, they just thought that Mr. Wu's book was absolutely very interesting, and then they were attracted by Wu Shaobai's hairstyle and started to become nympho, but when Wu Shaobai started talking about Xianbai'er, these questions made everyone ask Living.

  All fell into deep self-contradiction.

  Wu Shaobai continued:

  "And the reason why Tang Seng fits the characteristics of schizophrenia is also here. Think carefully, if the characteristics of the four masters and apprentices themselves are according to my thinking, they are of the same body, and it is an insinuation of a person of different ages. Wukong is a young and frivolous child who was born to seek Taoism, Bajie is a middle-aged man who has achieved fame and then failed miserably. Sha Seng is the twilight of Wutou's calm and sluggish old age, while Tang Seng is just a bystander, looking at his life from the perspective of a bystander. In fact, Mr. Wu Chengen's life was also known for his intelligence when he was young, proud of his middle-aged officialdom, and impoverished in old age. And what about the ending of Tang Seng? If you can't enter from the main door, you can only enter through the side door. Is this understandable as , his compromise with this world? The separation of the four apprentices implies that he will remove all the madness in his heart, because only in this way can he get the scriptures and return to the world of normal people? So, thinking about it now, Isn't Journey to the West as simple as we thought?"

  "..."

  "..."

  "..."

  Can you explain it like this...?

  The audience were all stunned, staring blankly at Mr. Wu in front of him...

  Can't say a word.

  Among them, there are some people with a high level of education, who frowned after hearing Wu Shaobai's words, and their faces were thoughtful.

  The second floor.

  Zhou Xun glanced at Gao Yuanyuan and asked curiously:

  "Yuanyuan, are you familiar with this young man?"

  "He asked me to call my sister. He cured my depression."

  "So it is."

  Zhou Xun nodded, glanced at Wu Shaobai, and said:

  "It really isn't easy."

  Before he finished speaking, Wu Shaobai on the stage chuckled lightly:

  "Okay, the book is back to the main story. Chaos is not divided into heaven and earth, and there is no one to see it. Since Pangu broke the Hongmeng, it has been opened up from the turbidity. It covers all living beings who look up to benevolence and discover that all things are good. , you must read the biography of Shi'e in Journey to the West! Let's say that since Pangu opened the sky, the heaven and the earth were divided into two, and the earth was divided into four parts, namely Dongsheng Shenzhou..."

  Wu Shaobai's version of "Journey to the West" storytelling tells a story.

  ……

  Time passed slowly, and everyone was fascinated.

  Wu Shaobai's version of "Journey to the West" is not full of plots such as the battle between gods and demons, but quotes and classics, and there are wonderful sentences everywhere.

  Generally speaking, because of the single-line plot at the beginning of "Journey to the West" and the hit of the 86 edition of Journey to the West, many storytellers like to use this interspersed plot to introduce them separately.But he is different. Throughout the whole process, Wu Shaobai seemed to have his eyes on this monkey. From the birth of the world to the hardships of seeking the Tao, he showed it vividly in vivid words.

  Before you know it, an hour has passed.

  When Wu Shaobai saw Meng Heji who raised his hand high behind the stage, revealing his watch, he knew that it was almost time, and just in time, he also talked about the monkey going to sea.

  Just listen to him say:

  "The monkey head went out to sea with one person and one raft. At the beginning, there were considerable clouds on the top and shrimps on the bottom. He was very capable, and ordinary wind and waves couldn't get him, so the journey was smooth and smooth. But , when the days are long... Infinite loneliness also blows at the face. Looking up at the clouds and clouds, bowing down to catch shrimps and shrimps like peaches. Ladies, what does this mean? It means that he begins to understand what loneliness is. Hey, this person , that's it. You can't escape this world because you don't know how big the world is. Once you know it, you go beyond it. The monkey's world is born clean, but when he fades away in time The ignorance of the whole body begins to learn loneliness and begins to think about this world... The way and the opportunity between the heaven and the earth will come by itself. The monkey who just understood the meaning of loneliness only feels that there is a smell in the air, and follows the smell Looking at it, I saw a wave that seemed to crush the heavens and the earth, behind him, rushing towards him..."

  "Snapped!"

  Xingmu took a shot and pulled everyone back from the spectators who were in the sea of ​​that day, one monkey and one raft facing the giant waves.

... 0

  "Spiritual roots are nurtured and flowed out, the mind is cultivated in the Dao, and the naive and divine stone monkeys go down the mountains and cross the sea to find wonderful fruits. Predict what will happen next, and listen to the decomposition next time."

  After that, he stood up directly, bowed to the audience, and walked off the stage with a smile.

  "..."

  "..."

  "..."

  The audience didn't hold back.

  Because we all know the next show is about to start.

  Just looking at Mr. Wu who stepped down from the stage, he unconsciously gave him the applause.

  "Whoa, whoa, whoa..."

  did not say.

  There is nothing to say.

  Listening to Mr. Wu's storytelling, it is really like drinking a bowl of steaming hot and sour soup for three or nine days, with sour, spicy, salty and fresh.Simply addicted!

  This paragraph of the book is over, Mr. Wu is leaving, we will not stop him.

  And tomorrow!

  Let's come early tomorrow!

  and so……

  Give it a round of applause.

  Everyone sent their applause from the heart, expressing their love and expectation for this wonderful storytelling.

  And at this moment, someone in the audience suddenly laughed:

  "Hey hey, those people who came to listen at night...but they lost a lot!"

  The sound was not too small, but it was heard by many people.

  Everyone was stunned...

  Then there was a little bit of bad taste from the heart.

  It finally turned into laughter:

  "Hey hey hey~".
