400 Years ago there was a brave young monk called Xuang zang,his dream was go to india and learn
about other religions,but he could not do that without his friends,the talking elephant,the friar and the
monkey king,they were always helping each other,what they could not figure out how they could get
in there,but that day Xuang zang had an idea,go across the mountains from china all the way to india,but
first they had to go to Shanghai so they could get in the mountains.
They went walking to shanghai,this took them 1 whole day,finally when they got there they
went to the forbidden city,they were staying there just for a day to plan their way to india.
The next they woke up,got their bags and climbed the mountains.
To go to india would take them 6 days,they would be sleeping in the some cities in the way to india, 1 hour
after walking Xuang zang was gone! They kept searching for him for 10 minutes until they find him,but
there was 5 samurais with him,one of them said “We have to kill him”the friar,the monkey king and the
talking elephant started attacking the samurais,each samurai had a sword,but that was an easy job for the
friar,the monkey king and the talking elephant,in less than 1 minute all of samurais were gone.
After that they continued the journey to india,they already had done 20 hours of walking everyone was
quite tired,they were now going to the closest city,they would stay in a abandoned house.The next day they
woke up and got their bags for the journey,20 minutes later they were walking again,that time they had
more food and water,while they were talking about how the journey would be in the next 5 days,then
unfortunately something showed up,the king of the samurais,he was quite tall,he was really strong and he
had superpowers! The monkey king said “We have to fight him,we cannot run”,his superpowers were:
Superforce,flying and he had a magic sword which had fire on it and it could cut everything,the friar,the
monkey king and the talking elephant were ready to fight,but the samurai king said “ YOU ARE GONNA
DIE!”,now they were scared,but they cannot just give up,they kept fighting for 1 HOUR! Until the
monkey king get his sword and cut that in half with his magical cudge,the king samurai said “I’M GONNA
COME BACK AND KILL YOU”! ,Everyone was tired because of the fight,so they went to the closest
city,the stayed there for 4 days.
4 days after they were walking again,they had to walk 1 day to get in india,they kept walking for 2
hours...but then someone shows up! It was something...like a monkey the friar said “WHAT IS IT?” First
everyone thought that would be bad,but that was actually Hanuman,the indian god,hanuman said”Do you
want to learn about new religions Xuang zang?He was excited but curious”OF COURSE...BUT HOW
DO KNOW ABOUT ME?Their friends were scared that it could be a trap,but it wasn’t...Now they were
staying at the golden temple at india,so he could learn about new religions,they stayed there for 1
month,then they came back to china knowing new religions.
