Summary:
It has been more than 1,500 years since Monk Tang returned to the West to study for Buddhist scriptures. He held the post of Dragon-subduing Arhat in the West and worked conscientiously. He played cards and had fun with the heavenly officials every day. Years of hard work have softened his character and it’s a pity that misfortune comes from the mouth. Having offended Tathagata Buddha, Tathagata beat him back to the human world and went through eighty-one hardships again. Tang Seng came to the world and found that although he was famous, no one believed that he was Tang Seng. As time went by, he had to worry about his livelihood. In the process of surviving and adapting to the environment, he faced countless difficulties. Without Sun Wukong around him, Tang Seng could only do it on his own. In the face of these things, all kinds of pranks and ridiculous stories were made, the gap in modern values, and the tricks of the gods in heaven. Let’s see if Tang Seng can withstand the test of the Eighty-one Difficulties and return to heaven.
