The King Of Masks

The King Of Masks

There is an old man named Wang who is known as the king of masks. There is a celebration going on and while he is performing, Master Liang sees him. Master Liang is very fascinated by his talent and wishes to speak with him. Master Liang tells Wang that he needs to pass on his special art of his masks to an heir, preferably a boy. Wang thinks about this and thinks it is an excellent idea since he does not want his family tradition to end with him, he wants it to keep going. Wang goes to the streets of China to search for a young boy to buy off the black market. A lot of people offer him young girls, since they are unwanted in China, but he refuses. Then he sees a child who looks like a healthy young boy. Wang is drawn to him and buys him for ten dollars. He names her King but calls her Doggie as well. Wang tells his new son of how before he was married and had a son. His son had died and his wife left him since he could not support her.
Wang and Doggie are walkin...
