Evaluation of works

The Journey to the West is full of lies, but his vertical and horizontal changes, with apes as his mind and pigs as his heart's qi, his initial indulgence, heaven and earth, can not be banned, but belongs to a kind of magic spell, which can tame people's hearts, subdue him to death, and also seek relief from cover.

The Journey to the West is nothing more than an interesting novel and an interesting fairy tale. He didn't mean anything subtle. At best, he is a bit cynical. This cynicism is also obvious; He's not hiding, and we don't have to ask for it.

Although the author is a Confucian scholar, this book is really a game, not a language. Therefore, the book only occasionally talks about the five elements, especially not learning Buddhism. So it has been popular for a long time since the end of the term. Therefore, its works are also a mixture of Buddhism and the old gentleman, truth and the original god, so that believers of the three religions have to attach themselves to it as appropriate.
