    Meng Waner was originally the daughter of the Emperor of Heaven. She fell in love with Shi Tu, one of the ten ancient generals, and was demoted to the human world. However, she still wanted to be with Shi Tu, and finally gave up her obsession and became Po Meng. Meng Waner went from simply pursuing her own love to finally making Meng Po soup for all sentient beings at Naihe Bridge to relieve the suffering of all sentient beings. She experienced a huge transformation from the small self to the big self, which made her let go of her own knot and was willing to sacrifice herself for others. Selfless dedication realizes the true value of life
