In the old version of Journey to the West, the Monkey King Hua Zhai served a bowl of rice. What did the new edition eat? ? The Journey to the West is one of the four classical novels of China, and it is widely known among the people that Tang Priest and his disciples learn from the West. But most people haven't seen the original, and most of them know it through abbreviated versions and TV dramas. In contrast, the original text is quite obscure, but the TV series adapted from Journey to the West is very popular. Journey to the West has been remake into many movies and TV series, and the evaluation is not bad. Among them, the old and new versions of The Journey to the West are often compared. In the old The Journey to the West, the Monkey King went to Hua Zhai and found no one around. He put a bowl of rice in the pot. What did the new edition eat?

On the way to learn the scriptures, Tang's teachers and disciples all went to alms for dinner. Of course, the apprentice can't let the master go in person, and Pig Bajie and Friar Sand are a little scary, so it is more likely that the Monkey King will go to alms. In the old version of Journey to the West, the Monkey King went to beg alms and knocked at the door, but no one answered.

So I went straight in and found steamed rice in the pot, so I picked up the bowl of charity and filled it with a big bowl. The whole process is very simple. The new version of The Journey to the West. Added the naughty features of the Monkey King's image. He saw something he had never seen before in the bamboo basket, so he took one and tasted it. The bad taste made him cry. It turned out that the Monkey King tasted the onion.

This detail has caused a lot of controversy. Some people think that there were few or no onions in China at that time. Because onions were imported from abroad, although there was frequent trade in the Tang Dynasty, the probability of such rural families having onions was still very small. Compared with the original, the TV series will be adapted to a certain extent, making the plot more attractive.

But while adapting, a little carelessness will go against history. Of course, there is no need to haggle over every ounce for a TV series adapted from a fairy tale novel, but for some strict viewers, such details will lead to their lower evaluation of the whole drama.
