The Monkey King


I read "The Monkey King" this time. I havn't never read this book, and this story made in China.
The monkey king wasn't good king, he always bothered around people. So, the Emperor of heaven call him in heaven and give him a job in heaven to keep eye on him. But he also caused many ploblems. For example, he ate a ripe purple peach for the peach banquet. The peaches take nine thousand years to ripen and if you ate it, the peach makes you live forever!
The Emperor and heven's people were in trouble because of the monkey king. So, they ask Buddha who was the most powerful lord in Heaven to help them. Buddha and the monkey king fought to compete which one suit the emperor of heven, and if lose one, must accept punishment. As a result..... the monkey king lose. He was buried under a huge moutain. The story finished at that. I was not fully statisfied with this end. I want to read this story's continuance.(170words)
