(1) from monkey to Qi heaven

The first time, after the monkey king was born, he was not satisfied with playing with the monkeys every day, and was always looking for an eternal life.

He came to Nan Bu Zhou and felt that he could not be naked. He had to find clothes to wear.

He took one that could not run and stripped him.

The second time, when monkey king returned to the flower and fruit hill, he was not dressed as a monk, nor as a Taoist or a celestial being.

Those monkeys said their king: "he doesn't have the equipment to wear a red shirt and a yellow coat."

In the third time, monkey king went to the Dragon Palace of the East Sea to pick up the Golden hoop.

Ask Lao Long Wang, Lao Long Wang finds three brothers.

Beihai Dragon King Ao Shun Road: "I have a pair of lotus root silk walking cloud mile", West Sea Dragon King Ao run road: "I brought a pair of locks gold nail mile", the South China Sea Dragon King Ao Qin Road: "I have a wind wing purple gold crown mile", monkey king wears golden crown, Jin Jia, step cloud to wear well, suddenly energetic.

So that the Golden hoop stick will go out all the way.

In the fourth time, the two king of the unicorns offered the ochre robe, "the monkey king is delighted, and the crown is pierred through the armor."

When the Jade Emperor sent the giant spirit to arrest him, Monkey King put on the purple gold crown, put on the golden armor, boarded the step cloud shoes, and held the Ruyi Golden hoop, and led the public to go out and set the stage.

This giant spirit is looking at it. It's very good Monkey King: "wearing a golden bright and bright hall, showing a golden crown, holding a Golden hoop stick, walking on the clouds and shoes alike, a pair of weird eyes like stars, two ears over the shoulder check hard, and quite a lot of body changes, loud voice like Zhong Qing."

Good, the wind is strong, and the beak of the beak shows his teeth.

In the sixth time, the monkey king put the Golden hoop, the whole golden armor, stepped into the cloud, and pressed the purple gold crown to make the camp door open.

The first seven chapters describe the evolution of the costume image from monkey to Qi Tian Sheng.

The clothes here are all sought from others or given by others.

Therefore, Sun Wukong's clothes are somewhat jumbled: there are civilian clothes, road clothes, official uniform, and emperors and generals.

Among them, the "ochre yellow robe" is the symbol of the supreme dignity and rights of the emperor. Monkey king put on the emperor's ochre robe, which is a challenge to the three authorities, namely, the Dragon King, the king of hell and the Jade Emperor.

Such a dress became the end of a series of clothes before he was put under the Five Fingers Group.
