Zhu Bajie and Sha Wujing stayed in Agrabah, Xuanzang and Wukong and Yulong moved along. They
trotted along the great desert and Xuanzang continued to fail to spread Buddhism. They then heard a carpet
fly pass them, it was Aladdin and Jasmine. “We wanted to see the world, so we decided to come along.”
Said Aladdin, he then lead the way to a port city. There they could get a ship. The ship was bound for the
city of Marseille in the West they then boarded the ship. “Oh I hate the sea.” Complained Sun Wukong.
The journey on sea was long but it was interesting to see people with white skin. They talked in a different
language, only some can understand the common tongue. The next day, they arrived at Marseille. It was a
city of sweetness; the smell of pastry filled the air. They then took a carriage to Paris where they would
continue to have fun, they rented and room at an inn. Aladdin and Jasmine went off, leaving only Tang
Sanzang and Sun Wukong. On the street, a mysterious figure stalked them. Everyone looked at Tan
Sanzang strangely; they have never seen an alien like this before. The mysterious figure then approached
Xuanzang, “Athos, at your service monsieur.” Said the mysterious man. “No thanks.” Retorted Xuanzang.
Paris was bustling with people even in the Night. Sun Wukong cooked noodles Tang Sanzang went to pray.
There was a knock on the door, Wukong went to get it and out came Three Musketeers.
Athos, Porthos, and Aramis said that they were musketeers of the kings guard and they’d like to have dinner
with the two. They sat down and took forks to eat noodles. “You eat noodles with chopsticks.” Said Tang
Sanzang. They then spilled wine and spat on the floor and did a lot of things, which drove Tang mad. “You
do not come here to eat like fools! Kong Zi taught us many manners.” Shouted Tang Sanzang. The three
musketeers then started singing.
Snap the sticks
Spit on the floor
Eat the noodles with a fork
Spill the wine on every floor
That’s what Tang Sanzang hates
Smash the cups
Slash the mat
Swearing to everyone at the door
Drink the wine like a dork
That’s what Tang Sanzang hates
What are you doing?
What are you doing?
Hey hey!
What are you doing?
What are you doing?
Hey hey!
What are doing?
What are doing?
I thought Kong Zi taught us manners!
Put the chopsticks upright ho!
Fire a musket down the hole!
Smash ugly statues oh!
If any are still whole!
Send them down the hall to roll
That’s what Tang Sanzang hates
That’s what he hates!
So carefully carefully with the place
