00:00Journey to the West, Chapter 13, The True Scriptures.

00:12Five hundred years passed.

00:16Wukong stayed trapped under the mountain.

00:19A thick layer of moss covered the monkey.

00:24One day, Buddha sat in the Thunderclap Monastery

00:28in the Western Paradise.

00:31He was talking to his students.

00:34The people in the East, in the Tang Empire,

00:37need our help, said Buddha.

00:40They lie, cheat, and steal.

00:44They are greedy and constantly fighting.

00:48He held up a bundle of scrolls.

00:51These are the true scriptures.

00:54They will teach the people in the East to act better.

00:58Wonderful, said one student.

01:01Let's bring the scriptures to the Tang Empire.

01:05Buddha shook his head.

01:07No, he said.

01:10A true believer, a monk, needs to come here to get them.

01:15Will anyone go to the East to find a worthy monk?

01:18Guan Yin stepped forward.

01:23I will go.

01:28The Tang Emperor smiled as his head monk read to a small group of people.

01:34The monk was reading old religious texts.

01:38A woman interrupted the monk.

01:40Why are you reading those old texts?

01:44She asked.

01:45Don't you know about the true scriptures?

01:50The emperor stood up.

01:52How dare you interrupt my...

01:54It's okay, said the monk.

01:59He walked over to the woman.

02:01What are the true scriptures?

02:11The woman looked at the monk carefully.

02:14They contain many lessons.

02:17People who learn the lessons never have to suffer again.

02:22Do you have them here?

02:23Asked the monk.

02:24No, said the woman.

02:28They are with Buddha in the Western Paradise.

02:32Someone must travel to the Thunderclap Monastery to get them.

02:37But only a true believer may make the journey.

02:42She took a robe out of her bag.

02:45Put this on.

02:49The monk put on the robe.

02:52Beams of light shone from it.

02:55The emperor gasped.

02:58You are a true believer, said the woman.

03:02Will you make the journey?

03:05Yes, said the monk, looking down at the glowing robe.

03:10It will be an honor.

03:12The journey will be very difficult, said the woman.

03:17Wide rivers and steep mountains will block your path.

03:20Fierce creatures and evil demons will try to attack you.

03:28But don't fear.

03:30You will have help from me.

03:34Suddenly, the room filled with blinding light.

03:37The woman rose into the air and changed form.

03:42It's the Bodhazat for Guan Yin!

03:44Someone cried.

03:47The emperor and everyone else in the room bowed.

03:50Guan Yin rose higher and then disappeared.

03:53The next morning there was a huge feast.

04:00The Tang emperor sat next to the monk.

04:04Your journey will help our empire greatly, said the emperor.

04:07No longer will our people suffer or treat each other badly.

04:14From now on, I will think of you as my brother.

04:18You will be called the Tang monk.

04:21Thank you, your majesty, said the Tang monk.

04:25How long will the journey take, asked the emperor.

04:29I will return in a few years, said the monk.

04:37Later that day, the Tang monk got ready for his journey.

04:42He put the special robe into a bag.

04:44He put dried foods into another bag.

04:53A big crowd gathered to say goodbye.

04:57Good luck, my brother, said the Tang emperor.

05:01The Tang monk climbed onto a horse and rode toward the west.

05:11He had traveled for over a month

05:13when he came to a big mountain.

05:17Slowly, his horse walked up a steep trail.

05:21I have a bad feeling, said the Tang monk.

05:25He looked around uneasily.

05:27I hope there aren't any demons here.

05:30Suddenly, a voice boomed.

05:33Who is walking on my mountain?
