Is it true that King Tang visited the underworld?

Tang Wang's visit to the underworld in The Journey to the West was deleted, because the idea of causal reincarnation was not advocated.

In the original Journey to the West, it is a very important chapter that the Tang King went to the underworld, which occupied four times. The Tang Priest's scriptures also originated from the Land and Water Conference. Version 86 didn't shoot this paragraph, but simply borrowed the story of King Jinghe to describe it, but it didn't involve the underworld. However, after the Zhang Jizhong version was filmed, the statement that the causal cycle was not advocated was deleted.

Tang Wang's visit to the underworld.

In the thirteenth year of Zhenguan, King Jinghe heard that Yuan Shoucheng of Chang 'an was very accurate in fortune-telling. Every day, people fish by the river. King Jinghe was very angry and asked Yuan Shoucheng to calculate the weather. Surprisingly, Yuan Shoucheng was very accurate. It didn't help him, so we had to change the imperial edict and the time and amount of rain. Unexpectedly, the jade emperor knew about it and ordered the king of Jinghe to be cut down.

The King of Jinghe asked Yuan Shoucheng for advice. Yuan Shoucheng told him that Wei Zhi was the supervisor and asked him to ask Li Shimin, the king of Tang Dynasty. The king of Tang promised him and took Wei Zhi to the palace to play chess the next day. I didn't expect Wei Zhi to cut off the dragon king's head in his dream.

Now the dragon king haunts the emperor all day, and the emperor can't sleep at night, and he will die in a few days. His ministers are all ready for national mourning and hope to establish a new king. But before he died, Wei Zhi wrote a letter to Taizong and gave it to the judge. ?

When the ghost of Li Shimin came to the underworld, the prince and the judge were very polite to him. They talked about everything. Later, they stole the book of life and death, which increased the life span of Emperor Taizong. Emperor Taizong asked how things were at home, and Yan said that everyone else was fine, except your sister, who would die in a few days. Emperor Taizong wanted to send some melons and fruits to thank him. The prince said there were melons and watermelons here, but there were no pumpkins. ?

The judge showed Emperor Taizong around the place again. Li Shimin saw his father Tang Gaozu, his younger brothers Cheng Jian and Yuan Ji, and his father and son were going to beat Li Shimin. Fortunately, the judge stopped him, and there were many ghosts who died unjustly. Because they have no money to take care of them, they can't make ends meet. Taizong wanted to donate some money, but unfortunately he didn't.

The judge told him that a man named Xiang Liang had saved a lot of money in the underworld, so he could borrow his money first and return it to him when he returned to the underworld. The judge also asked Taizong to hold an amphibious meeting among the dead to cross over these dead souls. Emperor Taizong visited the underworld over there, and the underworld was going to bury Tang Wang. Wei Zhi stopped him, saying that Tang Wang would definitely be resurrected. Sure enough, soon, Tang Wang came back to life.
