It first appeared in Wuji country (37-39 years). It turned out that Manjusri Bodhisattva was immersed in the water for three days and three nights by King Wuji, and the Bodhisattva complained to the Tathagata. Tathagata let the green lion push the king into the well for three years to avenge the Bodhisattva.
The second time appeared in the lion camel bell (July 4-July 7). This time, it is very simple. Manjusri and Pu Xian collected the green lion and the white elephant.
This problem should be said to be the author's fault. To explore the reasons, we can probably start with the version.
There are two simplified editions in The Journey to the West in Ming Dynasty. One is Tang Sanzang's Journey to the West, edited by Zhu in Yangcheng and embroidered by Liu Qiumao in Liantai. The other is Journey to the West, edited by Yang.
"Zhu Ben" has no part of the infinite kingdom, only one paragraph says the lion camel bell:
Master and apprentice returned to the lion camel country. It turned out that this country's monarch and ministers were eaten by three demons (who were originally short of "quilts") and occupied this country. Without knowing it, the master and apprentice went to town to change the official documents, and were tied up by the demon king and given to the little demon to steam and eat. Monkey closed his door and went to the Western Heaven to worship Buddha, recounting Master's troubles in detail. Upon hearing this, Manjusri and Pu Xian (original "offerings") came together to collect the demon, and Monkey led the battle with a shilling. Monkey went into the city with a stick, and three demons were fighting in one place. Manjusri and Pu Xian (the original "offering") read a spell, collected the green lion and the white elephant, and sat down on each side. The Tathagata collected the Dapeng golden winged bird. After the three demons were destroyed, the Buddha died in the west. Monkey saved the younger brother, and the four of them walked together. -"Sanzang has lived in Zhuzi and the Lion Camel"
"yang-based" has both:
Hearing this, the demon king was frightened and fled. "Master," Monkey said, "please ask your Majesty to take the throne and teach his husband, wife, son, mother, official and official to know each other. I went to the clouds to catch demons. " Pig and Friar Sand were holding hands, and the three monks were surrounding the demon when they saw Manjusri Bodhisattva calling, "Monkey, don't kill him. He is the green lion sitting with me, because the infinite king has three years of mercury, and the green lion has disturbed him for three years. Now that you have received this merit, I will take him away. " As he spoke, the demon turned into a green lion, and the Bodhisattva came back on his back. -"Sun Walker receives Fu Qingshi's essence"
Master and apprentice returned to the lion camel country. It turned out that this country was eaten by three demons and occupied by this country. Ignorant, the master and apprentice went to the city to change the customs, and were tied up by the demon king, who ordered the little demon to steam it and eat it. The Monkey King got rid of a contraction method and went to the west to worship Buddha, giving a detailed account of Master's difficulties. When the Tathagata heard of it, Manjusri and Pu Xian were led to the lion camel country to collect the demon, and the shilling walker led the battle. Monkey was very good when he entered the city. Three demons fight, Manjusri and Pu Xian recite the mantra. They gathered the green lion and the white elephant and sat down by themselves. The Tathagata collected the Dapeng golden-winged magpie. After the three demons were destroyed, the Buddha died in the west. Monkey saved the younger brother and the four of them went west. -"Sanzang has lived in Zhuzi and the Lion Camel"
It seems that this problem is not universal. It is estimated that in the process of writing the book Journey to the West, he constantly absorbed new stories and enriched them, but it also brought many contradictions. The "green lion" is an obvious example. If it can be compared with other versions, it should be able to gain more.
