Wukong was a Buddhist monk to the west whose travel started from the tenth year of Tianbao Reign of the Emperor Xuanzong and ended in the year of Zhenyuan Reign of the Emperor Dezong,passing through Yutian,Shule,Qiuci,Yanqi,Beiting and other places.What he saw and heard reflected the situation of the Western Regions after the An-Shi Rebellion(安史之乱)when the Hexi areas were lost and the roads were cut off while the Anxi and Beiting military town systems were still in normal operation.Wukong,as a bystander,recorded many events which were not seen in the historical records.The Buddhist temples in the Western Regions and scripture translation activities which recorded by Wukong were also of great value.
