Sun Wukong, or Monkey King, was a monkey who learned to be very good at magic and fighting.

孙悟空，或美猴王，是一只学会了高超法术并且非常擅长打斗的猴子。

He was given a job in heaven guarding a peach garden, but he was very naughty, so Buddha imprisoned him under a mountain.

天庭给他安排了一份看守蟠桃园的工作，但是他非常淘气，因此佛祖把他关押在了一座大山下面。

Buddha sent a monk, Xuanzang, to India to get some books to teach people how to live better lives.

佛祖派了一位和尚——玄奘——去印度取一些书籍来教导人们如何过上更好的生活。

Guanyin found Monkey and freed him so that he could go along on the journey to India and protect Xuanzang.

观音找到美猴王，把他给释放了，为的是他能够一同踏上印度之旅，并且可以保护玄奘。

Monkey King tried to be good, but broke his promise.

美猴王尽量听话，但还是违背了诺言。

Then, Xuanzang and Monkey King met Zhu Bajie, or Pigsy, who also used to have a good job in heaven, but behaved badly and was changed into a pig-man.

然后，玄奘和美猴王遇到了猪八戒，八戒过去在天上也有一份很好的工作，但是行为恶劣，于是被变成了一头猪。

Pigsy agreed to come along with them.

猪八戒同意和他们一同前往。

Pigsy was very greedy and lazy.

Next, they met a water monster called Sha Wujing, or Sandy.

接着，他们遇到了一只名叫沙悟净或沙僧的水怪。

Monkey King and Pigsy fought Sandy.

美猴王和猪八戒与沙僧打了起来。

After a long fight they discovered Sandy was from heaven, too.

经过一番长时间的打斗之后，他们发现沙僧也是从天上来的。

Sandy joined them.

沙僧加入了他们的队伍。

Unlike Monkey King and Pigsy, Sandy was quiet and reliable.

与美猴王和猪八戒不同，沙僧既文静又可靠。

Along the way, the travellers met powerful and dangerous demons, who wanted to eat Xuanzang because they thought it would make them live forever.

这些旅行者沿途都遇到了强大而又危险的妖怪，那些妖怪都想吃了玄奘，因为他们认为这会让他们长生不老。

Many of the demons could change themselves to look nice and friendly, so they often tricked Xuanzang into going with them.

许多妖怪都能把自己变得看上去既亲切又友好，因此他们经常骗玄奘跟他们一起走。

However, Monkey, Sandy and Pigsy always rescued Xuanzang.

然而，美猴王、沙僧和猪八戒总是会把玄奘给救出来。

Many years later, the four reached India and got the special books, which they took back to China.

多年后，这四个人到达了印度，取得了特殊书籍，他们把那些书籍带回了中国。
