A gust of snowy wind blew by, and an oval icicle the size of an egg fell from the sky, landing slowly on the flower. It quickly melted into water, the pure, unadulterated water shimmering as it flowed gently down the bud's lip and into its heart...
Then, wisps of mist drifted out from the center of the flower bud.
"Puff puff..." Petals opened silently, revealing a plum blossom the size of a palm.
The five petals were crystal clear and exquisitely beautiful. At the center of each petal, slender, yellow-tipped, brownish stamens peeked out…
On this cliff, a strange plum blossom, nourished by icicles, blooms in full glory.
"Wan'er, I think I saw a special plum blossom on Mount Ling, absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth..." Tian Tian's words startled Wan'er.
Wan'er took a deep breath, slowly opened her eyes, and looked back at Tian Tian. Her eyes were filled with tears, and she was deeply moved. Her gaze instantly matured, suddenly no longer that of an eight-year-old girl. "So, I am that plum blossom, and you are the icicle that fell from the sky. We were destined for each other in our past and present lives, wandering around in this other dimension beyond the human world..."
"So what you saw is what I saw, and we saw the same scene?" Tian Tian seemed to understand, and some memories were awakened as a result.
"Master, what should we do about my situation?" Just then, a weak voice came, startling both Tian Tian and Wan'er.
Suddenly, a crab appeared next to the little turtle. Upon closer inspection, a red feather was visible on the crab's back.
The little crab didn't speak human language, but the two children could understand it.
"Don't worry, you just need to ask them for help, and you'll be able to restore your true form," the little turtle comforted her, its eyes fixed on Xiao Wan'er and Tian Tian.
"So you're the Little Firebird." Xiao Wan'er's eyes lit up as she looked at the giant crab opposite her. She nodded and turned to Tian Tian. "Brother Tian Tian! Since we've met by chance, let's help this giant crab regain its true form."
“Alright,” Tian Tian turned around and smiled at Wan’er, “Then let’s remove the shackles from Little Firebird.”
Wan'er's fingertips glowed red, the red light flowing as it touched Tian Tian's fingertips.
Tian Tian closed two fingers of her other hand and drew an arc to her side. A watery light traced a semicircle and landed on the fingertips of her other hand. Wan'er, standing beside her, did the same gesture, drawing a semicircle in the air with her other hand. A red petal appeared at the tip of her finger...
And so, the petals and water droplets overlapped, swirling away from their fingertips, finally landing steadily on the back of the large crab, where they gradually blended into the feathers...
A flash of red light appeared before my eyes, and a moment later, the red light stretched upwards, revealing a small, fiery red bird where the giant crab had just stood.
"Puff puff!" The little firebird fluttered its pair of red wings and hopped around them joyfully...
At this moment, strange lights flickered in the forest. A firebird over a foot tall, a small turtle shimmering with colorful light, and a pair of handsome and beautiful boys and girls were dancing happily in the dense jungle...
"Do you see? This is your past and present life. Your destinies have been intertwined since that time..." As Master Roshi spoke, a faint sadness crept into his words. "There is no love or hate without a reason in this world. You removed the demon from the Firebird, and in return, he gave you all his memories."
