Tang Priest is a character in The Journey to the West, one of China's four classical novels. His previous life was Jin, the second disciple of the Tathagata, and his prototype was Xuanzang, a monk in the Tang Dynasty. Xuanzang was born in Luoyang, Henan Province today. His common name is Chen _, and his legal name is Xuanzang. He was honored as "Master Sanzang" and later called "Tang Priest".
Character image: Although the Tang Priest is a master whose duty is to learn from the scriptures, he is actually a cowardly, hypocritical person who is afraid of death and lacks transcendental understanding. Although he is kind, he can't tell right from wrong. Instead, I often listen to Zhu Bajie's provocation and misunderstand the Monkey King who can see through evil tricks. Tang Priest concentrated the pedantry of feudal Confucian scholars and the piety of Buddhist believers. All day long, he talks about being kind to all "monsters" and "being lenient with others". Right and wrong are indistinguishable, good and evil are unknown, and good and evil are unknown. The transvestite turned upside down. He just gave in to evil forces, but he couldn't tolerate the Monkey King who was loyal to protect his safety and removed obstacles on the westbound road. In fact, the image of Tang Priest can be said to coincide with the legendary white-faced scholar. Although he is full of idealism, there is nothing he can do. When encountering difficulties, he is always helpless, waiting for foreign aid.
