Why did the scorpion spirit in "Journey to the West" accuse Tang Monk of breaking the precepts in his daughter's country?

This is because Tang Seng first drank the water from the Zimu River and then the water from the Rebirth Spring in the Daughter Kingdom, committing a crime of killing; he also deceived the king of the Daughter Kingdom into getting married, and took the opportunity to escape from the marriage, which violated the precept of lying. . When Tang Monk and his disciples passed through the Daughter Country, they were welcomed by the citizens of the Daughter Country. They had never seen a man before, let alone four of them this time. The king of the daughter country was even more attracted to the extraordinary-looking Tang Seng. Many people admired Tang Seng's firmness in the face of female sex, but the Scorpion Spirit he met after leaving his daughter's kingdom said that Tang Seng had broken his precepts. Why is this?

Killing: When Tang Seng’s master and apprentice passed by the Kingdom of Women, Tang Seng felt thirsty and asked his apprentice to fill the river with water to quench his thirst. They often stay in the wild and drink river water without thinking too much about it. As a result, after drinking the water from the Zimu River, both Tang Seng and Zhu Bajie felt uncomfortable in their stomachs. After they became bigger, they felt very painful. Sun Wukong was confused for a moment and asked someone to ask, and then he learned about the situation of the Zimu River. So I hurriedly went to Luatai Spring to get water, which solved the problem of my big belly.

But the most important purpose of the abortion spring here is actually to induce abortion. Tang Seng and Zhu Bajie became pregnant after drinking water. They are pregnant with a fetus, and in order to solve the problem of pregnancy, they are willing to sacrifice the child in their belly. Isn't this a crime of killing?

Liar warning: Faced with the temptation of the king of the daughter country, Tang Seng refused to give in. He had the important responsibility of learning Buddhist scriptures, and he knew how powerful the Buddha was and did not dare to violate the sexual precepts. But there is no way to go on like this, so Tang Seng pretended to agree to the request of the king of his daughter's country. The king of the daughter country was very happy and generously asked him to send his apprentice away. But outside the city, Tang Seng refused to recognize the engagement and insisted on leaving. The king of the daughter country was disappointed and asked Tang Seng how he could go back on his word, and was scolded by Zhu Bajie.

Although Tang Seng defrauded the marriage for the sake of the overall situation, he actually lied and broke the precept. The Scorpion Spirit accused him of violating the precepts, but he only said that he had to do it because he was on his way. From this, we can see Tang Seng’s hypocrisy. He clearly made a mistake but refused to admit it.

In general, Tang Seng did break the precepts in the Daughter Kingdom. But in terms of the great cause of seeking scriptures, these are not big mistakes. Therefore, Bodhisattva and others did not punish Tang Monk. Instead, Scorpion dared to accuse him.
