Journey to the West
Regents Primary School of Shenzhen , Zhong , Haoming - 7
The Tang Priest and his three disciples , Monkey King , Pigsy and Friar Sand , were heading towards the Western Heaven . Gradually they began to feel hotter and hotter . It was very strange , because it was already late Autumn . Later they learned that the Fiery Mountains were just ahead of them . The mountains had a circumference of 800 miles , on which not a blade of grass could grow . A young man selling cakes told them that it was impossible to cross the mountains without a special plantain fan which could only be borrowed from Princess Iron Fan .
After having made arrangements for his master , Monkey King left for the Plantain Cave to see Princess Iron Fan . The Princess was the wife of the Bull Demon King and the Red Boy ' s mother . Some time ago , Red Boy had tried to eat the Xuanzang ( the master monk ) and Monkey King subdued him . Hence Princess Iron Fan hated Monkey King and refused to lend the fan to him . Instead she blew Monkey King out of sight with a single swipe of her plantain fan . Bodhisattva Lingji heard about this and gave Monkey King a wind-resistant pill . Soon after Monkey King came to the Princess to borrow the magic fan for the second time . With the wind-resistant pill in his mouth , Monkey King could not be blown away no matter how hard the Princess waved the fan . Subsequently , the Princess hurried back to her cave and had the doors closed tightly .
However , with his magical power , Monkey King turned himself into an insect and got into the Princess ' belly when she was drinking tea . The Princess could not stand the pain , so she agreed to lend the fan to Monkey King , but she actually gave him a fake one .
The third time Monkey King came for the fan he decided to turn himself into the Bull Demon King . He got the fan . Upon hearing of this trickery , the Bull Demon King came hurriedly chasing after Monkey King . As a result , they engaged in a fierce fight . Soon Pigsy and Friar Sand came and helped Monkey King defeat the Bull Demon . With the plantain fan , Monkey King immediately put out the flame of the Fiery Mountain . In the end , the Master and his three disciples were able to continue their journey to the West .
Xuanzang finally reached India , and received the scriptures from the living Buddha . Sun Wukong ( Monkey King ) and Xuanzang achieved Buddhahood , Sha Wujing ( Sandy ) became an arhat , the dragon horse is made a naga , and Zhu Bajie ( Pigsy ), whose good deeds had always been tempered by his greed was promoted to become an altar cleanser .
