A mortal in the Journey to the West, why is he not afraid of the Dragon King, and even the Jade Emperor respects him for three points?

A mortal in the Journey to the West, because the Dragon King made a bet with him, the Dragon King was so convinced that even the Jade Emperor had to respect him for three points. This man is Yuan Shoucheng.

Everyone should have seen The Journey to the West. The mortal inside can be said to be the most vulnerable side, but he can't beat the demon or the fairy, but there is a more powerful mortal, and he is Yuan Shoucheng. Not only is Yuan Shoucheng not afraid of the Dragon King, but even the Jade Emperor respects him. Why? Yuan Shoucheng is an ordinary fortune teller. He often tells people's fortune on Chang 'an Avenue, but he is very accurate. Once, a fisherman asked Yuan Shoucheng to tell his fortune, and Yuan Shoucheng pointed him in the direction, saying that he would catch fish according to the pointed direction. Sure enough, the fisherman returned with a full load. Later, fishermen did what Yuan Shoucheng said every day and caught many fish every day.

This made the Dragon King very unhappy. He thinks that Yuan Shoucheng exposed his position and let the fisherman catch all his fish. So the Dragon King became a mortal, came to Yuan Shoucheng and made a bet with Yuan Shoucheng. They bet on the number of raindrops. As a result, Yuan Shoucheng won, but the Dragon King was a better man. He didn't want to lose to an ordinary person like this, so he tampered with the raindrops at will against the imperial edict. When the Dragon King won the bet, he went to Yuan Shoucheng to pay homage to him. Unexpectedly, this matter has been Yuan Shoucheng figured it out. Yuan Shoucheng told him that he had committed a big crime of deceiving the king and told him to wait for punishment. Although the Dragon King won, he changed his mind and committed the great crime of deceiving the king, so the Dragon King offended the Jade Emperor and he was sentenced to death. The boss of the Dragon King is a mortal Wei Zhi. In order to save his life, the Dragon King asked Li Shimin, the king of the Tang Dynasty, and Li Shimin finally let him go.

In fact, Yuan Shoucheng's true identity may be more than just a mortal. According to our guess, he can have such a great skill, which may be the Buddha himself.
