1400 years ago , in China , there was a brave monk known as Xuan Zang . He was kind-hearted and everyone in town respected him . He had two friends , the monkey king and the talking pig . Both of them were naughty but brave . hello
One day , Xuanzang was summoned by the Emperor . The Emperor was blue . “ You are the only person who can help me ” exclaimed the Emperor . “ The Malaysian Emperor is coming here for a battle , I only can please him by giving him the Kohinoor diamond . He is a poor emperor , but he has the strongest army I have ever seen . I am sure that he will leave us as soon as possible , if we give him the kohinoor diamond instead of giving other golds . Can you please go to India and get me the Kohinoor diamond . I will send all the treasures I have for getting it ” exclaimed the Emperor , scared . Xuanzang was calm . “ I will try my best ” he commented . He packed all the things he needed for the trip . and was ready . He started his journey the very next day . His friends , the talking pig and the monkey king accompanies him . The king had given him golden jewellry and money enough to get the diamond . Xuan Zang saw people around him gathering around and saying goodluck .
After walking for days and weeks , Xuanzang with his friends reached the Himalayas . They were tired , but the journey is still not over . They still need to cross the ferocious mountains and reach India . They start their walk . They were many difficulties like getting a cold or getting ill , but they went through all of this . One day , they were getting ready when suddenly , they heard someone shouting ‘ HELP ’ ‘ HELP ’. Xuan Zang then understand it ’ s from some funny looking animal . The pig then understands that it is a friar . The friar was as enormous as a demon . They help him out and give him some hot tea . The friar thanks XuanZang and gives his weapon to him . “ You have helped me . If I was stuck there another minute I would have died ” said the friar . Xuan Zang accepted the weapon and the friar vanished . They were starting their journey when suddenly , the earth started shaking . “ Oh no ” shrieked the monkey king . The ice monsters were coming to eat them . The talking pig and the monkey king took the weapon from Xuan Zang and battled the ice monsters . Xuan Zang started praying to goddess of mercy . After few minutes , the talking pig and the monkey king both were tired . Now goddess of mercy sprang out from the earth and killed the ice monsters with her powers . “ You have pleased me with your bravery ” said the goddess . Every word she spoke were magical . “ When you reach India and need any help , just pray to Hanuman . He will help you ”, saying this the goddess of mercy disappeared .
The three friends started moving on into their adventurous journey . Now that they got the weapon and goddess of mercy ’ s boon , they were excited for their upcoming adventures . They travelled for weeks and at last they reached India . The greenery , the smell of grass , the breathtaking view , all left them amazed . “ Let ’ s rest for a while ” suggested Xuan Zang . They stayed in a lounge for the night . Xuan Zang said “ we should get all the jewellery , gold coins and the diamonds ready ” said Xuan Zang .
The three friends go to the palace . Seeing the extraordinary people , the guards let them in . The palace was beautiful with beautiful paintings gardens and a fountain which let out water , glittering . The kings greeted them and gave them lavish food . Xuan Zang explained everything to the king . The king was angry but after seeing the shining treasures his greediness grew . He accepted the gold and when Xuan Zhang asked for the diamond , the king said “ I am not foolish to give the priceless diamond for such a little treasures . Xuan Zhang argued with the king but then the guards came and kicked the three friends .
Xuan Zhang was ferocious . He sat in front of the palace and started praying to Hanuman . After hours , Hanuman appears and asks Xuan Zhang “ You have pleased me . What should I do for you ”? Xuan Zhang tells everything to Hanuman . Hanuman arises and starts to destroy the kingdom . The king was a scared chicken . The king goes to Xuan Zhang and gives him the Kohinoor diamond and the king tells “ I am sorry for everything I did . I was like a monkey . I should have never done this ” said the king . Xuan Zang took pity on him and restored his palace .
