Chapter 177 The Origin of the Ape God Hanuman
"Ape God?"
When it comes to the gods he believes in, Mbaku's eyes instantly become pious.
Although he didn't know what Eric Killmonger asked for, Mbaku answered with a trace of piety.
"The name of the ape god is Hanuman!"
After Mbaku finished speaking, Eric Kelmongo nodded slightly, raised the high-tech communication bracelet on his wrist, and Kimo Yuzhu projected a document in front of Mbaku.
"I think you should look at this."
Mbaku looked suspiciously at the holographic projection screen in front of him and read the information displayed on it.
It's just that as he continued to watch, Mbaku's complexion gradually began to change.
What Eric Kermonger projected on the screen in front of Mbaku was actually a brief introduction and comparison of the Indian epic "Ramayana" and the Chinese classical mythology "Journey to the West".
The protagonist in both books is a god monkey, the Indian monkey god Hanuman and the Chinese god Monkey Monkey. There are many similarities in the descriptions of the two monkeys in the two books. Between the two, there seem to be thousands of Inextricably linked.
First of all, the two god monkeys have an indissoluble bond with the wind.
Hanuman, the son of the wind god, is extremely powerful. With a single leap, he can fly up to the vast sky, ride the clouds and ride the fog, and gallop with the turbulent waves like the wind.
And Sun Wukong sucks the essence of the sun and the moon from a piece of immortal stone, bursts out and produces a stone egg, which turns into a stone monkey when he sees the wind, and his strength is infinite.
Secondly, Hanuman is tall and can change his height and image at will, and the seventy-two changes of Sun Wukong are also similar in purpose.
Third, Hanuman's weapon, the Tiger-headed Ruyi Golden Stick, is also very similar to Sun Wukong's weapon, the Ruyi Golden Hoop. This cannot be just a coincidence.
In addition, there are many similarities in the plots of the two books.
There is a passage in the epic "Ramayana" that says that Hanuman stole the fruit from the Wuyou Tree Garden and was found by the female Rakshasa. As a result, Hanuman destroyed the forest and beat the guards to death.
This plot is very similar to that of Sun Wukong stealing pan peach, stealing elixir, and making a scene in the heavenly palace.
besides,
Some chapters of Journey to the West are also very similar to the overall Ramayana storyline.
The sixty-ninth chapter of Journey to the West, "Tang Seng of Zhu Ziguo talks about his previous life, Sun Xingzhe gave three folded arms", wrote that Tang Seng and his disciples passed through Zhuziguo on their way to the Western Heaven to collect Buddhist scriptures, and saw their king put up a yellow list to recruit wise men from all over the world. its healing.
Wukong revealed the Yellow List and diagnosed the king's illness, saying that the king suffered from "two birds missing the flock", which is commonly referred to as lovesickness.
It turned out that a few years ago, the king and Jin Sheng Niang Niang were playing in the Imperial Garden during the Duanyang Festival. Suddenly a strong wind blew, Jin Sheng Niang Niang was taken away by the Qilin Mountain demon Sai Tai Sui.
From then on, King Zhu Zi couldn't get sick because he missed Jin Sheng Niang day and night.
After Sun Wukong learned about the situation, he first prescribed a prescription for the king, and then went to Qilin Mountain. By fighting against the demons, he defeated Sai Taisui and rescued the golden saint, and the king was cured of his illness.
The main chapter of "Ramayana" describes Rama, the prince of Ayodhya, who was forced into exile in the forest due to court struggles. His beloved wife, Sita, was captured by the demon King Ravana of the city of Lengya. Hanuman was brave and alert. Burn the Langka Palace, steal the fairy grass, kill the Demon King Ravana, and rescue Sita.
Both have the same storyline.
What shocked Mbaku was that not only was the name of the Indian monkey god Hanuman exactly the same as their ape god, but even the plots described in the two books had many similarities with the myths and legends circulated in their tribes .
Their ape god Hanuman was also born in the wind, and the weapon used was also a long stick. To say that all this is a coincidence, Mbaku himself does not believe it.
That is to say, their ape god Hanuman, the Indian monkey god Hanuman, and the Chinese god Monkey Monkey are very likely to be the same powerful existence, but the legends left in different countries are different. , but many aspects of his birth, appearance, power and weapons have remained fairly consistent.
According to the time of the three circulations, the last place Hanuman appeared was in China.
Thinking of this, Mbaku couldn't help but look up at Chen Mo, isn't he from China?
At the same time, Monkey King's indestructible body described in Journey to the West with his sword and axe, and the indestructible body of King Kong, which was unscathed by lightning and fire, reminded Mbaku that when the two fought before, Chen Mo's steel and iron bones seemed to be invulnerable.
There is also Chen Mo that seems to contain the power of mountains, and he can't shake the powerful power even if he bursts out with all his strength.
Thinking of this, Mbaku couldn't help but have an amazing guess in his heart.
"This……?"
Mbaku took a deep look at Chen Mo with a very solemn expression, and then looked at Eric Kermonger again.
"Is this all true?"
Although he believed that his king would not lie to him, the meaning behind this incident was too great, and he could not be prudent.
Eric Killmonger took out a string of Kimoyu beads from his body and handed it to Mbaku.
"The Indian epic "Ramayana" and the Chinese mythological biography "Journey to the West" are well-known historical masterpieces in both countries. You can search for them on the Internet. What I show you is just a simple plot comparison. You can search by yourself or Just find a few people in their country to verify it yourself."
Nodding slowly, Mbaku did not refuse to use high-tech things as before. In terms of the identity of God, those things are not important.
Glancing at Chen Mo with a complicated expression, Mbaku took the Kimo Yuzhu handed over by Eric Kermongo, turned and left the conference hall.
The stakes are high, and he must conduct a thorough investigation and verification.
...
The next day, Mbaku came to the palace discussion hall again. Today, there are still only Eric Kermonger and Chen Mo. They are sitting side by side in chairs, and they seem to have been waiting for him for a long time.
Mbaku, who came in, looked at Chen Mo with a very complicated look, with excitement and reverence, as well as suspicion and anxiety.
He spent a day looking up the legends of the monkey god Hanuman and the monkey Monkey King in the two countries, and personally compared the similarities between the two and the ape god Hanuman he believed in. The more in-depth research, The more certain Mbaku is, the three are the same existence!
Not only these, after confirming the connection between the three, Mbaku also checked all the information of Chen Mo through Wakanda's intelligence organization "War Dog".
From this information, Mbaku discovered even more amazing things!
