"Buddha said that all things in the world are reincarnated and have cause and effect."
"Then what sin did I do in my previous life that I have to meet you in this life?"
"Thousands of years ago, you and I were two lotuses in the purple bamboo forest, with the same roots and branches, absorbing the essence of the sun and the moon. We were about to become immortals, but we were picked by the fairy boy by mistake. We were afraid of being blamed by Guanyin, so we threw them to the mortal world and entered reincarnation."
"Tsk, you think I'm a three-year-old? Since ancient times, only men and women who have been deeply in love and affection have used this as their home. How can it be that you and I are like a thorn in the side, a thorn in the flesh, and want to drink its blood and eat its flesh?"
"Queen, your words are wrong. You only know one thing, but you don't know the other. On the surface, these lotus flowers are indeed Meng Bu Li Jiao, Jiao Bu Li Meng, just like those couples in the world who share the same heart and happiness, but they don't know that two flowers compete for one flower, and two flowers compete for one flower. There is no half-hearted friendship."
"So, your Majesty is that root, that branch? So you and I have to fight each other and compete endlessly for the rest of our lives?"
"Empress, you are mistaken again. Your Majesty is the fairy boy. Because he broke off the immortal relationship between you and me, Master Guanyin demoted him to the mortal world. Because of the fight between you and me, the country was ruined and the family was destroyed, and everyone betrayed and separated from their relatives. This completes the cycle of cause and effect."
"Even so, how did you learn about it? And why did you come to tell me?"
"Because I am not human. When you and I were thrown into the mortal world, we were separated during the fall. You came to the human world, but I fell into the animal realm. In order to find you, in order to follow the cause and effect, I cultivated to become a spirit, and I will be reincarnated with you in the world."
