The Monkey King was born smart, lively, loyal and hated evil. He became the embodiment of wit and courage in East Asian cultural circles, and some people in China worshipped him as a god. The Monkey King represents the feelings and pursuits of kindness, justice and unkindness of ancient people in China.
Tang Priest is studious and highly savvy, and stands out among the monks in the temple. Finally, he was selected by Emperor Taizong, became sworn with him and went to the Western Heaven to learn from the scriptures. The Tang Priest is merciful and dedicated to the Buddha. He is honest and kind, but he is also timid.
Bajie is simple and honest, with great strength, but lazy, loves to take advantage of petty advantages and covets women. Together with Tang Priests, he protected Tang Priests from going to the Western Heaven to learn Buddhist scriptures, and was finally appointed as an altar messenger.
