Inventory of the five tragic figures in "Black Myth: Wukong".

Who are the five tragic heroes in "Black Myth: Wukong"?

No. 5th, Zhu Bajie.

Perhaps he should be called Marshal Tianpeng. Just because he witnessed the private meeting between the Jade Emperor and the Taiyin Xingjun, he was banished to the mortal world. Zi Zhu'er, also a celestial maiden, was willing to descend to the mortal world to follow him.

The two were toyed with by the Heavenly Court. It took nine reincarnations for them to meet again, but when they met again, it was a life-and-death situation.
One turned from a celestial being to a demon and became a spider spirit. The other turned from a god to a monster and became a pig spirit. As one of the eighty-one tribulations, either Zhu Bajie had to kill the spider spirit for the safety of his master, or the spider spirit had to kill Zhu Bajie for longevity.

Facing this old acquaintance who had become a demon, Zhu Bajie couldn't bear to be ruthless. After the spider spirit absorbed the remains of her sisters, she raised her daughter with Zhu Bajie and survived in a struggling way.

The second time, when the spider spirit was old again, she became a stepping stone for the destined person. But what she thought about was not how to avoid the golden cudgel but to put on the makeup of that year again and see if that fool could recognize her.

Of course he recognized you, but he can't admit it.

The almighty Great Sage Equaling Heaven was killed by the Heavenly Court. His body perished and his Dao vanished. His six roots were divided. The Great Sage Equal to Heaven who held sway over one side was also wiped out by the Heavenly Court. His family was broken and people were killed. And Zhu Bajie has insisted on helping the destined person. How can this small Spider Cave block the eyes and ears of the Heavenly Court?
Can't turn back. Only let go.

No. 4th, Hong Haier

Rather die standing than live kneeling.

In order to drive a wedge between the Bull Demon King and Princess Iron Fan, the Heavenly Court forced Princess Iron Fan to drink the Mother-Child River water. After Hong Haier was born, the couple had many misunderstandings and finally lived apart and never contacted each other again until they died.

Hong Haier has been a pawn since he was born. He grew up in an unwelcome environment. As the last descendant of the Yaksha clan, he wants to take revenge on the Heavenly Court for destroying his family. But by mistake, he worshipped Guanyin as his master and even regarded the enemy as his father, living a life worse than death.

After the Great Sage died, his six roots of eyes, ears, nose, tongue, body, and mind were divided. The Bull Demon King kept his good brother's "body" and lived a meager life. In order to enhance his own strength, Hong Haier did not hesitate to turn against his father. He even imprisoned the Bull Demon King to ask for the Great Sage's "body".

Unfortunately, although he has lofty aspirations, his fate is as thin as paper. Defeated, Hong Haier was unwilling to submit. He was also unwilling to live a struggling life under the protection of his parents. When he saw his mother kneeling down and begging for mercy and offering the plantain fan to stay in the Flaming Mountains forever, he finally chose to commit suicide.

Seeing Hong Haier kill himself, Princess Iron Fan's back suddenly slumped. The Bull Demon King's several mournful cries really showed a family broken and people killed.

No.3rd, the Bull Demon King

Five hundred years ago, the seven great sages rebelled against the Heavenly Court together. How high-spirited they were. Now some are dead, some have left, and those who are alive are also old and can't even restore their human forms.
He originally had the power to reach the heavens but was also muddle-headed and stupid. He was led by the nose by the Heavenly Court all his life. Every choice he made ended in tragedy.

In the past, he was proud of all heroes. Now brothers are at odds. His wife is unfaithful. His lover is killed. His own flesh and blood is given away.
Is this the most tragic?

No, this is not the most tragic. The most tragic thing is that all of this is a lie of the Heavenly Court. And when you find out the truth, it is already too late to turn back.
It turns out that Wukong's journey to fetch the scriptures, accumulate merit, and enter Buddhism were all to protect his brothers. Wukong's last death also became the Bull Demon King's pledge to join the Heavenly Court. He exchanged his own death for the life of his good brother.

It turns out that Princess Iron Fan was used for surrogate pregnancy. When the Bull Demon King and Sun Wukong were fighting against the heavenly soldiers in the front, Princess Iron Fan was forced by the heavenly gods to swallow the essence and the water of the Mother-Child River. Later, passing through the Flaming Mountains and borrowing the plantain fan was also a trap of the Heavenly Court. Possessing a precious treasure invites disaster. Only by giving up the plantain fan can one survive.

It turns out that the Jade-Faced Fox was an informant of the Heavenly Court. Only by getting rid of her can there be temporary peace.

It turns out that Hong Haier is the only descendant of the Yaksha clan. Only by sending him to Guanyin for protection can he avoid being hunted down by the Heavenly Court and live in peace.

My younger brother doesn't regard me as his elder brother. My wife doesn't regard me as her husband. My concubine doesn't regard me as her lord. My son doesn't regard me as his father. In the end, everything is left desolate.

No.2nd, Sun Wukong

The golden monkey brandishes his mighty cudgel. The universe is cleared of dust for thousands of miles. Is the Great Sage with the tightening hoop still the Great Sage?

After Brother Monkey was conferred as a Buddha, he only wanted freedom and hoped to return to Huaguo Mountain and live a carefree life.

But for the Heavenly Court, Wukong not only has the merit of fetching the scriptures in the west but also has the worship of the Victorious Fighting Buddha. He dominates one side and is beyond the three realms. His powerful magic power is not used for himself. Moreover, he has the previous offense of making a great disturbance in Heaven. How can they let the tiger return to the mountain?

So the Heavenly Court sent Erlang Shen and other heavenly soldiers and generals, as well as many of Wukong's deadly enemies to assist. They completely flattened Huaguo Mountain and killed Sun Wukong by using the tightening hoop spell.

It turns out that this is just a plot made by Brother Monkey and Yang Jian. Brother Monkey is originally a stone monkey born from heaven and earth and is immortal. Only by dying in the flesh can he get rid of the tightening hoop on his head and let his will continue forever.

After the Great Sage died, he was divided into six parts by Yang Jian: eyes, ears, nose, tongue, body, and mind. The first five pieces of flesh were distributed by Yang Jian to the demon kings who had made contributions in eradicating Brother Monkey.

What the destined person has to do is to collect the six roots and resurrect Wukong.

After the destined person defeated the Black Bear Monster, the Yellow Wind Monster, the Yellow Plum Old Monster, the Centipede Demon King, and Hong Haier, he obtained the new roots of seeing joy, hearing anger, smelling love, tasting thought, and being worried about the body.

Then the destined person defeated Yang Jian before returning to Huaguo Mountain. The memory of the Great Sage was sealed in his third eye by this number one rebel of the Heavenly Court. Defeating him will obtain the memory of the Great Sage.

But only the "mindfulness root" is missing. It turns out that as the head of the six roots, when the body perishes and the soul vanishes, Wukong has long been dead.

This time, the destined person has to face the remnant body of the Great Sage. Only by killing his former self can the six roots be united and be reborn through nirvana. It turns out that the "mindfulness root" is the destined person himself.
After the remnant body of the Great Sage disappears, only a tightening hoop is left. At this time, will you wear it or not? If you wear it, you will be the Victorious Fighting Buddha, crowned with a crown and receiving the worship of thousands of people.

No. I don't want to be that lofty god. I just want to be myself. If I go and never return? Then I will never return! Smash the Heavenly Palace and return to the Heavenly Court to cause another great chaos.
