Tell me about the magic weapon of immortals in Journey to the West. What is the character of the people and why?

The Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea is one of the most popular stories of the Eight Immortals, which was first seen in the zaju "Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea to Get Jade Board". According to legend, when the peony in Penglai Xiandao was in full bloom, Baiyun Fairy invited eight immortals and five immortals to hold a grand ceremony. On the return trip, Tie Guai Li (or Lv Dongbin) advised them to find a way by themselves, instead of taking a boat. This is the origin of "the Eight Immortals show their magical powers when crossing the sea" or "the Eight Immortals show their magical powers when crossing the sea".

At this time, the Li Tie monster dropped his other musical instrument-the iron crutch (or gourd), Han Zhongli threw a banana fan, Zhang put down his mount "paper donkey", and other immortals also threw their musical instruments into the water and crossed the East China Sea. Because the behavior of the Eight Immortals alarmed the Dragon Palace, the Dragon King of the East China Sea led a group of soldiers and crabs to theorize. Unexpectedly, there was a conflict, and Lan Cai He was taken back to the Dragon Palace. After the Eight Immortals killed the dragon, the Dragon King of the East China Sea cooperated with the Dragon Kings of the North Sea, the South China Sea and the West Sea, and suddenly the waves were stormy. At this time, Cao Guojiu took out the jade board and opened the way, forcing the huge waves to both sides and crossing the sea smoothly. Finally, the South China Sea Guanyin Bodhisattva (or Tathagata) intervened and asked the Dragon King of the East China Sea to release Lan Caihe, and the two sides stopped fighting.

In addition to the above, there are some folk legends about the Eight Immortals, including the tragic story of "Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea".

During the Stegosaurus period in the Northern Song Dynasty, Shamen Island (now Temple Island) was the place where the imperial court imprisoned prisoners. From the third year of Stegosaurus, all illegal soldiers were sent to Salmon Island. Year after year, there are more and more prisoners on the island. However, the imperial court only distributes food rations to 300 people in the whole island every year, and the food is becoming more and more insufficient. Later, Li Qing, the guard leader of Shaman Island, thought of a vicious method: when more than 300 people were captured, some of them were bound by their hands and feet and drowned in the sea, so that the number of prisoners on the island was always less than 300. In this way, more than 700 people were killed in two years. In order to survive, prisoners often jump into the sea to escape, but most of them are swallowed up by the rough waves. At one time, more than 50 prisoners were killed. About 30 miles from Shamen Island to Penglai, most of the prisoners were exhausted and drowned in the water, leaving only eight swimmers with strong martial arts and strong physique. They swam downstream to the shore and hid in the lion cave at the foot of Ya Dan Mountain in the north of Penglai. The next day, fishermen found them. They were all very surprised when they heard that eight people had crossed the ocean from Salmon Island to come here. They called it "God", and the story spread among the people, known as "Eight Immortals", evolved into the story of "Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea" today.
