Dragon King of the West Sea
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from Ao Run)
The Dragon King of the West Sea (Chinese: 西海龙王; Pinyin: Xīhǎi Lóngwáng) is the Dragon King of the West Sea. His name is Ao Ji (敖吉)[1] or Ao Run (敖闰)[2]. Of the four Dragon Kings he is the least mentioned and very little is known about him in Journey to the West except than when Sun Wukong asked him for a gift he did give him one. He could be linked to the White Tiger as both are Chinese western gods. His brothers are Ao Kuang, Ao Chin and Ao Shun .
