Some people say that in the second half of Journey to the West, Liu Er's macaque replaced the Monkey King. Is it true?/You don't say.

Why did Bian Xiao ask such a question? It is because not long ago, I felt that everyone was discussing this topic enthusiastically. Next, Bian Xiao will give you a concrete report.

The reason for the heated discussion is that we found that the Monkey King and Tang Priest didn't quarrel very much after the disaster that Liu Er's macaque pretended to be the Monkey King. The Monkey King used to be very rebellious. He and Tang Priest always quarreled. After this difficulty, they felt more mutual trust and no contradiction, so there was no quarrel. Some people wonder whether the Monkey King was killed by the Tathagata, and then Liu Er's macaque took his place. Actually, it's not. Liu Er's macaque was indeed accepted by the Tathagata Buddha, and then the Monkey King continued to accompany the Tang Priest to learn the scriptures, and was not replaced by Liu Er's macaque.

Everyone thinks that the Monkey King should fight to the end instead of becoming so docile, but why did he suddenly become so docile? This makes people have a lot of doubts, but the truth is simple, and that is the happy ending of China. After so many disasters, the four of them have a profound friendship. Of course, mutual tolerance, mutual understanding and mutual trust are also the most basic. Four people have gone to the Western Heaven, so it's time to be serious. If the Monkey King is still the same as before, that's impossible. People always have to keep learning and grow up in suffering. Therefore, it is understandable that the Monkey King and Tang Priest stopped quarreling and forged an indissoluble bond.

Finally, the Monkey King is capable and smart. Even in heaven, he was not killed in the end, but was pressed on his five fingers by the Tathagata Buddha. Thus, it is not so easy to replace the Monkey King easily. Besides, Tang Priest, Pig Bajie, Friar Sand and the Monkey King get along day and night. If it is really replaced, they can see it, and they can't let Liu Er's macaque follow them all the way to the end.
