What is the background of Friar Sand? Why didn't Tathagata kill nine Buddhist scriptures?
Friar Sand is the third disciple of Tang Priest. He was originally a shutter general in the sky, but he was demoted to the world because he broke the glass lamp. After coming down to earth, Friar Sand occupied the Liusha River, became the evil monster, and ate people everywhere. Once, nine Buddhist monks came to Liusha River and were eaten by Friar Sand, which destroyed the Buddhist plan. It was not until Tang Sanzang, the tenth monk, came that Friar Sand was subdued and went to the Western Heaven to learn Buddhist scriptures with Tang Priest. Friar Sand got rid of nine Buddhist scriptures. Why didn't Tathagata behead him? Look how hard Friar Sand is backstage.

The purpose of Tang Sanzang's westward journey is to bring Buddhism to the Eastern Tang Dynasty, that is, to complete the spread of Buddhism to the East. The Tathagata Buddha naturally supports this matter and has been operating in secret. The first nine Buddhist scriptures must have been enlightened by the Tathagata Buddha, and they were all incarnations of the golden cicada, but they were all eaten by Friar Sand, and the plan to spread Buddhism eastward was never completed. Tathagata must be very angry, but he didn't send someone to get rid of the monster in Liusha River, because he knew the powerful forces behind the sand monk.

Friar Sand used to be a red man around the Jade Emperor, and can also be understood as a eunuch around the Emperor. Therefore, the status of Friar Sand is definitely not as simple as people think, and it is unreasonable to be demoted to the world just because of breaking a glass lamp. The only explanation is that Friar Sand was sent by the Jade Emperor to stop the expansion of Buddhism.

Although Buddhism and Taoism are harmonious on the surface, there is an undercurrent in the dark. Heaven is the representative of Taoism, and the East has always believed in Taoist immortals and offered sacrifices to taoist sanqing and other immortals. They naturally don't want Buddhism to spread to the east, and they can't say it publicly, so they have to make this decision.

The Buddha naturally understood this truth, so he thought of a trick, casually found a mistake in his second disciple Jin, reincarnated Jin into a monk of the Tang Dynasty with magical powers, and then ordered Jin's reincarnated body to go to the Western Heaven to learn Buddhist scriptures, so that he could achieve his goal quietly. However, the bergamot was seen by the Jade Emperor, who naturally couldn't explain it clearly, so he casually found a reason (breaking the glass lamp) to send the shutter generals to Liushahe. A glass lamp is just an ordinary light bulb in the sky. A jade emperor pro-guard captain went to Liushahe because of this little mistake?
