Pigsy

Pigsy, once the General of the Heavenly Reeds in the Heavenly River, is a character of lusts: for food, women and wine. One day, drunk, he flirted with a goddess at a sacred banquet; his punishment was to be demoted from Heaven and sent out into the world. Unfortunately, his reincarnation happened in the wrong way and he accidentally got into a pig?s body. So now he cleans up garbage, eats out of dumpsters, and is persuaded by Guan Yin to redeem himself and accompany Tripitaka on his journey to the West in order to fare better in the next incarnation.
