Btw, Yangjian is his true name. Erlang means the second son. In ancient China, ppl usually call their first son Dalang, second sons Erlang, third son Sanlang. Lang=male/ dude. Shen means God. So Erlang Shen = the second son God.

The dynamic between Wukong and Erlang is what essentially inspired the hot-headed impulsive protag and the cool-headed serious bff/rival trope in Asian media. The quintessential example of 'frenemies' in Chinese literature. They're both outcasts, often butting heads but ultimately have mutual respect. They're friends as well as rivals.

Erlang Shen does not have 73 transformations. He has 72 transformations like Wukong. There is no such thing as 73 transformations in Chinese mythology. The numbers that appear in Chinese mythology are all composite numbers. For example, 72 transformations, 36 transformations, 28 constellations, and 18 arhats, etc.

I see that some people don't like Erlang Shen's appearance in the video, but Erlang Shen is actually a well-known young god. Since the Yuan Dynasty, there have been stories about him staying 18 years old forever and celebrating his birthday twice a year. In the story of Journey to the West, when Erlang and Sun Wukong first met, Wukong mocked him because Erlang was good-looking and looked young.

For those who come from Black Myth Wukong, know that Erlang Shen's depiction in Journey to the West is the most disparaging version of all of his legends because the Author lived in Ming Dynasty where the Emperor Jiajing indulged in Taoist Elixir making seeking immortality and ignored all state affair for over 20 years and triggered the beginning of the end of Ming dynasty. For this the author used the novel to ridicule Taoism and elevated Buddhism.
@xiaoyuzhu-q9m3 ай бұрын
The Journey to the West didn't elevate Buddhism, but satirized the reality with the help of the gods and buddhas all over the sky. Therefore, both Buddhism and Taoism were devalued in the writings of Wu Cheng'en's old students. Heaven is an organization that even monkeys can't cope with, and Tathagata Buddha is a hypocrite who is full of lies and interests first.

No, it's not. India wasn't the only place on Earth with legends about superhuman/being/God with extra eyes. And just because Buddhism is originated from India doesn't mean anything from Chinese mythology (which is mixed of Daoism + Confucianism + Buddhism) all originated from India. Chinese welcomed Buddhism (a religion founded by Nepalese) because of its philosophy and didn't accept Hinduism into China because it's god's system.
