Wukong lost to Dapeng. Why didn't he ask the Jade Emperor for help?

The Monkey King went directly to the Tathagata Buddha for help, mainly because the Monkey King knew that Dapeng bird had a strong background and had a deep relationship with Tathagata Buddha. You know this Dapeng bird is Tathagata's uncle. In this case, the Monkey King had no choice but to seek the help of the Tathagata Buddha. Some people even say that the Monkey King was not defeated by Dapeng Bird, but because the Monkey King didn't dare to kill him. If he accidentally injured or killed Dapeng bird, there was no way to tell Tathagata.

Of course, this Dapeng bird is not the Tathagata's own uncle. In fact, the Buddha was swallowed by the peacock when he went through the customs. Peacocks and Dapeng birds are actually born in phoenix. At first, the Tathagata was going to kill this peacock, but some buddhas came out of the peacock's stomach, so this peacock is equivalent to your mother. If you kill this peacock at this time, it would be all wet. Later, the Tathagata could only leave the peacock in Lingshan, and named it King Daming. This Dapeng bird indirectly became Tathagata's uncle.

Before Tang Priest began to learn from Buddhism, this big bird stayed in Lingshan to listen to the Buddha's sermon. Later, Tang Priest began to learn from Buddhism. Later, Tathagata sent Dapeng Bird directly to the Monkey King to try to create some troubles for several people, so as to make up the 81 difficulties. And the Monkey King is what kind of person, he can naturally see some of the reasons here, so after seeing the Dapeng bird, the Monkey King didn't die, so he went directly to Lingshan to ask the Tathagata for help.

If the Monkey King goes directly to the Jade Emperor for help at this time, it is obviously not enough, and the Jade Emperor will definitely ignore the Monkey King. After all, this is a Buddhist matter. Therefore, I have to say that the Monkey King's IQ is still relatively high. After the successful completion of the mission of obtaining Buddhist scriptures, the Monkey King was also sealed in Lingshan to fight against the Buddha, and his position was particularly high.
