Regents Primary School of Shenzhen , Liu , Guanghao - 10

After the experience of the journey to the west , Monkey King , Pigsy , Sand and Tang Monk became immortals . They had a wonderful life in heavenly palace . Five hundred years later , Monkey King , Pigsy and Sand got tired of the same lifestyle .

One day , they talked happily together in a the heavenly palace . Monkey King had a suggestion , he said , ‘ I haven ’ t visited the Earth for a long time , What about going there and have fun ?’
‘ It is a great idea because I am looking forward to meeting beautiful girls ,’ Pigsy said excitedly . Sand said : ‘ I want to travel , too .’ So they all agreed . Hours later , they flew to the Earth by a magic cloud named ‘ Kinton ’. When they got to the ground , they all felt excited .
‘ Wow , here is a beauty , I can ’ t wait saying hello to her .’ Pigsy said to Monkey King and ran to a beautiful girl quickly . ‘ Hi , beauty , nice to meet you here , am I handsome ?’ At this moment , Pigsy was shocked that it was an evil goblin . She emitted a lot of smoke from her mouth and ran away . Pigsy said to himself with a smile , ‘ Am I ugly ?’
Later , Monkey King had something to say , ‘ We should be a man first , I can change myself into seventy-two characters ,’ soon he became a handsome man . Sand asked Monkey King what be should do .
Monkey King said , ‘ Look at this man , he is wearing something , you can also look for something like that and wear like him .’ So they walked toward a bin , Pigsy picked up a plastic bag and said , ‘ It looks nice , and it is everywhere , would you like to try one on , Sand ?’ Sand said , ‘ Thanks , my brother .’ Then Pigsy put on some plastic bags and shouted , ‘ What is this ? How dirty it is ! Look at my feet , I can ’ t move freely , there is something sticky under my feet , I can not move , brother monkey ,’ But Monkey King did not know what it was either . Then a little boy passed by and told them that it was bubble gum .
Pigsy asked , ‘ What is bubble gum ? At this time , the little boy walked away with his parents .
Monkey King and Sand tried to help Pigsy . Pigsy said , ‘ I don ’ t think it is a nice place , I like living in the heavenly palace best .’ ‘ There are many great places worth visiting ’ Monkey King said . An hour later , they arrived at the foot of the mountain , but they were very disappointed . They could not enjoy the fresh air , they could not see many trees , there was rubbish everywhere instead . Sand was upset and said to Monkey King , ‘ Let ’ s go back to the heavenly palace , I don ’ t like this place either .’ Pigsy and Sand sighed and asked Monkey King , ‘ So now where are we going next ? ’ ‘ We are now visiting the city , why not visit the countryside ?’ Monkey King suggested . So they went to visit a town named City of Dreams . When they got to the town , they found there were a lot of advertisements on the white walls . So the walls looked messy . In order to make it a better place , they began to clean the walls , then they found an advertisement . The advertisement said , ‘ For a better world , do not throw rubbish ’. However , they found a lot of rubbish near the bin . Pigsy said , ‘ I do not like human beings , they are neither polite nor kind to the environment .’ After cleaning the rubbish , their hands were dirty , they wanted to wash their hands , so they tried to look for a river nearby . When they saw a river , they thought they might see a lot of fish and prawns , or they went fishing by the river . But they were even more disappointed , the water in the river looked murky and dirty . There was no fish nor prawns . They walked along the river , and saw some factories . They saw some dark smoke and waste water coming out from the factories . They found that it was hard to wash their hands in the river .
At last , Monkey King said , ‘ What a disappointment travelling to the Earth ! We ’ d better go back .’
Hours later , They arrived at the heavenly palace safely and no one found what had happened to them except Avalokiteshvara ( an Indian god ) and The Jade Emperor . The three brothers went back to their places . Monkey King was so puzzled that he got up early the next morning and went to see Avalokiteshvara who was living in Nanhai Putuo Bamboo forest .
