Black Myth Wukong: story background compendium: Chapter Five

Chapter Five

There's not much to say about the Ox Demon King's pre-existing background, other than that he was sworn brothers with Sun Wukong, and there's only one change to the original: the Ox Demon King helped in the battle against the 100,000 Heavenly Soldiers, but ultimately, he escaped only when Sun Wukong was captured.

Instead of talking about him, let's start with Princess Iron Fan.

Princess Iron Fan, formerly known as the Rakshasa Lady, was a native of the Rakshasa Kingdom (not Russia, but a country made up of the Night Fork Clan), but the Rakshasa Kingdom was destroyed by the Spirit Mountain. The Elder Lord Taishang took in the Rakshasa Woman as his disciple.

After this Taishang Laojun made sure that the prince of the Rakshasa kingdom would be reincarnated according to his own arrangements.

He then gave the Banana Fan to the Rakshasa Woman (that is why she was called the Princess of the Iron Fan) and later married the King Bull Demon. He forced her to drink the water of the Zimu River, and then operated from it, and eventually Princess Iron Fan gave birth to Red Child, the reincarnation of the Prince of the Night Fork.

At the same time, under the pretext of Sun Wukong kicking down the Eight Trigrams Furnace, the boy who guarded the furnace was relegated to the Flaming Mountain as a landlord, which was actually to cooperate with Princess Iron Fan/Red Child.

The Bull Demon King was quite affectionate with Princess Iron Fan at first, and also quite doting on Red Child. But then Princess Iron Fan confessed to him that Red Child was not born to the King Bull, and that the King Bull was just used as a front by the Elder Lord Taishang (but he didn't know the exact reason). So the King Bull was very angry and simply ran away from home, and Princess Iron Fan did not interfere with each other. He also befriended the Jade Faced Fox outside, and the two demons fell in love and had a girl doll named Pingping.

Although the Bull Demon King does not go home much, but Red Child and Pingping's relationship is good. But eventually Red Child also left home and set up his own business, calling himself the Holy Infant King, until he encountered the scripture-taking team and was taken in by Guanyin.

When the scripture-taking party arrived at the Flaming Mountain, Princess Iron Fan (probably under the arrangement of Lord Tai Shang Lao) clashed with Sun Wukong, which eventually led to a great battle between the King Bull Demon and Sun Wukong. That's when the Taoists and Buddhists arrived.

According to the original story, Sun Wukong didn't go to Heaven to get help, and the Taoist people shouldn't have come. The reason why they came uninvited was probably to clean up the Bull Demon King - the same way they cleaned up the Sun Wukong.

The Sun Wukong secretly woke up the Bull Demon King: the only road left for us was Zhao'an.

Before the King Bull can figure out what Sun Wukong means, Piggy says he has just killed Princess Jade Face.

Enraged, the King Bull transforms into his original form and fights back, but he is outmatched and defeated by Nezha and Li Tianwang.

In the end, the King Bull finally realizes that saving his life is more important and joins Buddhism to avoid trouble.

Then the events of the prologue occur.

After this, the Bull Demon King and Princess Iron Fan return to the Flaming Mountain. Princess Iron Fan took Ping Ping as her adopted daughter and treated her well.

But the Bull Demon King had a heavy heart and his health was getting worse.

Some time later, Red Child was also sent back by the Goddess of Mercy in the name of “filial piety to parents”.

Red Child asked the King Bull for the relics of the Wukong several times, but the King Bull insisted on not giving them to him.

Pingping also found that the red child's temperament has changed a lot, used to play together, but now together, but feel that the red child has become too much than the previous behavior.

It turned out to be the red child knows his own life, want to step on the spirit mountain to avenge for the Rakshasa country. However, because his own strength is not enough, he wants to enhance his strength through Wukong's relics.

In fact, using him to find trouble in Spirit Mountain was exactly the intention of Supreme Lord Lao. But Princess Iron Fan loved her son and did not want to do that. King Bull also treated Red Child as his son, so he strongly opposed it.

So Red Child found the land of the Flaming Mountain. The land sent Yin soldiers to attack the Flaming Mountain, while Red Child knocked out Ping Ping and hid her (the purpose was to keep her out of the way and dangerous), and then burned the Flaming Mountain with the Samadhi Fire and the Five Elements Chariot.

Ma Tianba, who was under the command of the King Bull Demon, knew that it was not good, so he ran out to look for help. The ones he looked for were the Black Bear Spirit and the Yellow Wind Monster, who had cooperated with the Bull Demon King in the siege of the Monkey King some years before. But for various reasons, none of them were seen. On the contrary

Princess Iron Fan was still in love with the Ox Demon King, so she also went out to look for help.

Red Child could not find Wukong's relics, so he kept pressing the Bull Demon King. The King Bull gritted his teeth and refused to say anything, until the Heavenly Ordainer and Piggy arrived.

This is the general background of the story.
