Ren Shen Guo plot

Monk Xuanzang is traveling to the West in search of the Buddhist 'sutras'. He has three disciples as companions: Sun Wukong, a smart but rebellious monkey, Zhu Bajie, a pig, and Sha Heshang, a cleric. Along the way, they come to a temple where a sacred tree grows whose fruits are said to have magical powers. Sun Wukong definitely wants to taste this fruit. He secretly enters the room of the tree, steals the fruits and destroys the tree. The owner of the temple is furious and sends an army of people after him.
