Erlang definitely points out the fact Wukpng named his kid the same thing as his dog. Like, each time Wikong would INSIST it means Little Heaven or Little Sky and it's because of a billion different reason and not because of Erlang's stupid dog, but Erlang always insists its the dog
Defintely.
Wukong is *furious* cus he really liked the name and got attached to it, but Erlang is just smiling like "Sure buddy. You totally didn't name your first born after the dog that 101 Dalmantian'd you and Macaque all those years ago." ૮ - ﻌ • ა⁩
Erlang calls MK "monkey Xiaotian" as a joke. Wukong hates it.
Tumblr media
MK doesnt see what the big deal is; Xiaotian Quan is a really cool dog.

Funny little modern day Lotus Lantern au, that's pretty much just an excuse for me to draw my Wukong with cool outifts

JTTW Chapter 6 Thoughts
Chapter Six for the @journeythroughjourneytothewest Reading Group!
Starting things off with another look at how time is accounted for in Heaven. Last time I concluded that the years that the Immortal Peach Trees need to grow their fruits were Earth years. This time around when they say that the Peach Festival happens every year they do mean a full year in Heaven, so multiple hundred years on Earth. It kind of has to be this way otherwise things would make little sense since if it wasn’t so the festival would be every day in Heaven and then they’d run out of Immortal Peaches really quickly even without a monkey eating them all up.
This chapter Heaven is back on with its nonsense, this time in retelling what happened instead of their actions. They most certainly did not “educate and nurture the talented monkey”, they didn’t actively teach him anything outside of maybe the bare minimum Sun Wukong was told by the people he worked with. They didn’t even tell him how the ranking system works!
Also they totally denied that he beat Nezha.
What becomes clear here as well is that they didn’t even pay Sun Wukong when they did give him the job to look after the garden. Sure it’s not like the Monkey King would have cared much, but that’s still not a good move.
We stan Guanyin, my favourite Bodhisattva, for sending her own disciple down to the battlefield for specifically a factual report. I firmly believe she is seeing through the nonsense the Jade Emperor has woven in with the truth in his recounting of events!
Also she is already saying “our [monkey]” like she has already decided to sort of take him under her wing. My speculation here is that she probably listened up when it was mentioned vaguely that Sun Wukong cared for his monkeys.
When Erlang Shen enters the fray some rather interesting points arise. For one his sworn brothers, who must know him very well, said that there was no time for “praise or blame”. Oho, what could they mean with praise? In the J.F. Jenner translation they even say "Stop admiring him and challenge him to battle.", which after taking a look at the original Chinese put through Google Translate is actually more accurate.
All of this is very interesting. Perhaps it is meant to harken back to Erlang’s own story and his troubles with Heaven, so now some appreciation for Sun Wukong being rather likeminded in this instance shines through. Aside from both of them having a rebellious streak, another parallel is that both of them have a brotherhood of seven!
And then of course Sun Wukong things of him as being very pretty. I can certainly see why people appreciate those two together.
Additionally Sun Wukong doesn’t want to fight him, because he appreciates his care for his mother! Aside from them not having any personal issues with each other.
Interestingly the Jingu Bang is always metaphorically called a Dragon in multiple instances of combat while the opponent’s weapon is referred to as Phoenix.
Some more translation shenanigans Erlang’s face is not simply green as stated in the Anthony C. Yu translation! I checked the Chinese text with the help of Google Translate for the Pinyin again and it’s verdant, so it could be more blue or green or inbetween even. The colour is specifically [青 Qīng], which doesn’t specify if it’s green or blue, just that it’s verdant. Only if an additional character had been used it could have been clearly differentiated. The German translation actually calls it “grünblau” literally greenblue as well.
Yippie, Xiàotiān makes an appearance this chapter as well! Wish we could have seen more of the good boi, but maybe we’ll get more later at some point. For those who’d like to see more of her, I can happily refer to the New Gods: Yang Jian movie!
Tumblr media
She’s so goofy, so adorable! Yet still packs a pawnch as well.
Tumblr media
Guess why Erlang is called Little Sage in this! The German translation notes that it is because Erlang [二 郎] has the number two [二] in it, which stands for the force of Yin with which the small/little is associated. So it’s Little Sage in the chapter title! Additionally Sun Wukong has a lot of Yang force, which gets opposed and undermined by Erlang’s Yin.
Lastly the Audio Drama Production Notes of this chapter bringing forth that the “plant-headed deities” in the Anthony C. Yu translation, well, have nothing to do with plants at all. Instead something they could be called which is more true to the intended meaning is “unappointed deities”.
And that should be the last we see of Huaguoshan until about… Chapter 28! Good grief, I’m not ready.

Nézhā: I'm gay. *reactions* Lĭ Jìng: Just when I thought you couldn't be more of a shame on this family. Sūn Wùkōng: Hi, gay! I'm the Monkey King! :3 Èrláng Shén: Cool! I'm gay too! Let's go to the Mortal Realm, so we can throw you a coming-out party! ^^^ Èrláng Shén's sworn brothers: COMING-OUT PARTY! :D Tiě Shàn Gōngzhŭ: WE'LL THROW THE BIGGEST COMING-OUT PARTY IN CHINA!!! :D Tàiyĭ Zhēnrén: It's always good to know your true self, my dear student. Now, go to that coming-out party and remember to shoot a homophobe. Shoot them in the fucking face with that brand new shotgun I gave you for your birthday. ^^ Xiàotiān Quǎn: WOOF! :D

There's also the fact that with chasing Mac around, he probably has been neglecting his duties. Plus his dog is probably being ignored, poor puppy
oof even more grounds for punishment

Èrláng Shén and his dog, Xiàotiān Quǎn.
The scanner and format completely butchered how I actually drew Èrláng's skin colour, and I can't draw dogs for shit. Also, just pretend that in the left drawing, his right ear is concealed behind his hair.
Btw, I hc Èrláng as trans (hence the feminine face). Prior to hormonal treatment, he'd probably hide it by both magical and non-magical means. And he'd probably brutally maim and/or kill anyone daring to question his maculinity.
He has trauma and other mental issues for days, dotes on his very good boy dog and has a hesitant father-son-relationship with Nézhā (by which I mean Èrláng cares deeply about this kid, but can't imagine himself being a decent parent [not after the crap he pulled on his nephew] and Nézhā doesn't give a crap, because in his opinion Èrláng is still better than Lĭ Jìng).
Also, Èrláng has an unspoken and deep love for Sūn Wùkōng, because Jiankong is my OTP for this fandom.
