Black Myth Wukong: story background compendium: Chapter Four

Chapter Four

The background of Pansi Cave has to start from Piggy's Eight Precepts.

It is said that when Piggy was a marshal in heaven, he had a crush on Chang'e. But there was a palace maid, Zi Zhu'er, who had a crush on him, but he did not care. However, there was a courtesan, Zi Zhu'er, who had a crush on him in the sky, but he didn't care about it.

Later, the canopy was reported by Wang Lingguan for molesting Chang'e, and was eventually relegated to the earth. Zi Zhu Er also went down to the world to reincarnate, only wanting to meet up with the canopy.

As a result, Tianpeng mistakenly reincarnated as Piggy, and Zi Zhu'er met Piggy at one of her reincarnations during this period. Although Piggy recognized her, she was scared away by Piggy's appearance.

(Some say the one in the anime is Gao Cui Lan, but it feels like the timing doesn't quite add up)

Later, Zi Zhu'er was reincarnated as the youngest of the seven spider spirits, and her name was changed to “Purple Spider”.

On the way to fetch scriptures, the four masters and disciples passed by the Pansi Cave, and Piggy saw the spider spirit bathing in the part, the original text was to eat tofu. There are changes here: the purple spider and Piggy recognized each other, the two have feelings for each other, coupled with a long goodbye, so the great harmony of life occurred in the water.

However, the two eventually had to fight each other with blades because of their positions.

The Pansi Cave and the Yellow Flower Goddess were next to each other. When the Spider Spirit was in trouble, the Hundred Eyes Demon Monarch of the Yellow Flower Goddess stepped in.

Feeling that the Hundred Eyes Demon Monarch was difficult to deal with, the Wukong went to invite the Bodhisattva Vishnu Purana. Vishnu is the mother of the Pleiadian Stargazer (the prototype is a big rooster), with the Pleiadian Stargazer's treasure embroidery needle to the Hundred Eyes Demon Monarch restraint to death, after all, chickens eat centipedes. Therefore, the Hundred Eyes Demon Monarch was very jealous and even hated the Pleiadian Stargazer.

In the end, the Hundred-eyed Demon Monarch was subdued and went to watch the gate for Vishnu.

Before killing the seven spider spirits, the Wukong saw that Porky Pig had some emotional problems here, so he told Porky Pig to “dispose of” the spider spirits and left first.

Pig eight quit the other six spiders are killed, leaving only the purple spider did not want to do it.

Although the purple spider is not dead, but also seriously injured. By eating the corpses of her six sisters, she was barely able to save her life. After that, Zi Zhu'er found herself pregnant and gave birth to six daughters - most likely all of them were Piggy's. Because Zi Zhu Er's eldest daughter said, “When they met, we weren't even born yet”.

Moreover, the name of the cloth shop run by the spider spirits is “Zhu's compound”, which may mean that it is the property of Old Zhu's (Pig's) family. Of course, it would also make sense to say that it's Old Zhu's (the spider) family. ......

But at the very least, the youngest daughter is Inu Bajie's, this is certain, the main plot highlighted expressed.

After fetching the scriptures, the prologue story takes place. After that the Hundred Eyes Demon Monarch was given one of the six roots and released back to the Yellow Flower View.

To talk about the Hundred Eyes Demon Monarch, the time has to be rewind a little bit further:

According to the original version of the Journey to the West, when the team was passing through the Land of Daughters, they killed the Scorpion Spirit of Poisonous Enemy Mountain with the help of the Pleiadian Stargazer.

The scorpion spirit had an old lover, called the king of the poisonous enemy, also a scorpion spirit. They had a litter of four sons. Because the scorpion spirit valued women more than men (a tradition near the Daughter Kingdom), the Poisonous Enemy King brought up his children by himself.

After learning that the Scorpion Spirit was killed by the scripture-taking team and the Pleiades, the Poisonous Enemy Great King decided to avenge the Scorpion Spirit's death, with the Pleiades as his main target. However, the Poisonous Enemy Mountain gradually became untenable, and the Poisonous Enemy Great King had to take his sons to join the Hundred-Eyed Demon Monarch, who regained his freedom after killing the Monkey King.

The Hundred Eyes Demon Monarch returned to the Yellow Flower Goddess of Mercy and found that the Purple Spider was still alive, but had been weakened by old wounds and old age. In order to expand his strength, the Hundred Eyes Demon Monarch recruited the Purple Spider and gave her one of Wukong's six roots to renew her life.

The Poisonous Enemy Lord also wanted to make a child marriage with the Purple Spider Child, but his sons were really no good: stupid, dumb, and unable to fight, and their strength was only good enough to top the miscellaneous soldiers. The daughters of the Purple Spider are not good enough. Plus the Hundred Eyes Demon Monarch is afraid of being emptied of his rights to stir up trouble from it, so this thing didn't work out.

The Hundred Eyes Demon Sovereign also had a mission to go down to the realm, and he wanted to set up a trap to harm the Pleiadian Astrologer.

When the Pleiadian Stargazer was captured, he recognized the golden hairpin in the Hundred Eyes Demon Sovereign's hand - he seemed to recognize the owner of this golden hairpin, only to be killed before he could say anything.

(I speculate that it was either the Queen Mother or his own mother, Vishnu Prabhupada)

In the end, the Pleiadian Stargazer was filled with demon eggs and turned into a demon, the “Demon King of the Obscure Moon”. His consciousness was completely destroyed, and only his demonic nature remained. The prototype rooster became a chicken with long hair. After that, he was placed in the Purple Cloud Mountain by the Hundred Eyes Demon Monarch.

As for the Pleiadian's embroidery needle, it was also taken away by the Hundred Eyes Demon Monarch and rewarded to the Spider Spirit.

Back to the Poisonous Enemy Great King, after he defected to the Hundred Eyes Demon Sovereign, he lived in the Purple Cloud Mountain, which happened to be located not far away from the Obscure Moon Demon Sovereign. He knew that his concubine Scorpion Essence was killed by the Pleiadian Stargazer, but even though the Pleiadian Stargazer had become the Demon Monarch of the Obscure Moon, he still retained the characteristics of the rooster, and his nature had been restrained to death, so the Poisonous Enemy Great King could not compete with him, so he could only drink alone, miss Scorpion Essence, and wonder when he could avenge Scorpion Essence's death.

If the Heavenly Orders did not fight him, but instead went directly to fight the Demon Lord of the Obscure Moon, the Great King of Poisonous Enemies would have felt that the opportunity for revenge had come, thus joining the battlefield. However, when the Demon Monarch of the Obscure Moon is enraged (entering the second stage), chirp a few times and the Poisonous Enemy Great King will die.

It's time to talk about the Purple Spider.

The Purple Spider Child still remembers Inuyasha five hundred years after her passage. The Hundred Eyes Demon Monarch took advantage of this and told her: if you marry Piggy and eat him afterward, your body will recover.

Eating Piggy is something that Purple Spider can't bear to do. But with his marriage is exactly what the heart wants, so they let their daughters to do.

Speaking of the purple spider's daughters opened a cloth shop, because the silk thread with different materials and famous. Life was quite stable, only the oldest four of them have always wanted to go to the outside of the Pansi Cave to take a look. However, the Pansi Cave had been labeled with several talismans by the Heavenly Court, making it impossible for the demons in the Pansi Cave to leave the confines of the Pansi Cave and the Yellow Flower View. Fourth Sister has been trying, but she just can't.

This is roughly the background of Chapter Four.
