Crossing the ocean part 2

Hello again, continuing our little story I will like to describe the characters in my story.

Cao-Guojiu- One of the eight immortals, pictured as an old man with an imperial cap carrying an imperial tablet. He hated corruption in the royal court and left later and soon became an immortal. The Chinese Theatrical god.


Han-Xiangzi- Another of the eight immortals, seen as an attractive youth carrying a bamboo flute. He once climbed into a peach tree of immortality. Upon climbing it he became immortal and his flute blesses immortality. The patron of the middle class.

He-Xiangu- The only female in the eight immortals. Often carrying a peach or lotus flower. Became an immortal supposedly after putting in a shiny gem into cordial and was soon able to fly over mountains and etc. The goddess of ladies, virgins, and housewives.

Lan-Caihe- Wearing a warm thick coat in the summer with a wooden belt and only wearing one shoe.  A total drunk who became immortal after helping out a beggar by washing out boils and sores.

Li-Tieguai- The god of the sick, stuck in a beggars body, that is also lame. Liked to just float about without his body till it was cremated.

Lu-Dongbin- Pictured as an aristocratic man in imperial robes, carrying around a magical sword from a dragon. Highly educated.

Zhang-Guolao- Portrayed as a old man riding a donkey. The master of oragami. After dying once, just got back up and went on as if nothing happened.

Dragon King- a dragon who is in charge of the east sea. Can transform to look like humans.
