Đoạn Kết Tây Du Kí

After surviving eighty-one ordeals, Tang Sanzang and his disciples finally reached the Buddha's land to collect the sacred scriptures. They excitedly went to meet the Buddha.

‘Did you guys bring a USB drive?’ the Buddha asked.

Tang Sanzang spluttered.

‘Then how am I supposed to transfer the scriptures to you?’

Quick-thinking Sun Wukong said, ‘Send them to my phone by Bluetooth.’

He gave his Anycall Haptic phone a vigorous shake, and ‘Bluetooth enabled’ appeared on the screen.

Not to be outdone, the Buddha pulled a Sony Vaio P netbook, measuring sixteen by nine, from his trouser pocket. In a few seconds, the scriptures were transferred, and he flew away.

Tang Sanzang muttered, ‘If I'd known, I'd have stayed home, searched Google, and downloaded them. Much quicker.’
