Tortoise and Hare Rematch, Mutual Aid and Friendship

Time flies, and it's time for the second year of the tortoise and hare race. Last time, the hare fell asleep under a tree and did not wake up until the tortoise reached the finish line, and lost the race.

After that, the hare will be pointed out by others wherever it is. Everyone would mock it every time they saw it, like, "Hey, isn't that the cocky, arrogant rabbit?" "Yeah! How can it lose to a slow turtle? What a disgrace to the rabbit tribe!" "I'm afraid people will laugh at that."

Every day, the rabbit lived with these comments. A few times he got tired of hearing them and retorted to those people, "I ...... only lost the game last time because I was gullible!" The other party snorted and said, "Losing the game and also finding their reasons, really no good!" The rabbit had to walk away blushing and embarrassed.

Finally, one day, the rabbit remembered the last defeat at home, and the more he thought about it, the angrier he became. Finally, he couldn't stand it anymore and flew to the tortoise's door in one breath. The hare was panting and knocking on the door, and when the tortoise heard the knock, he came over slowly with a cup of tea and opened the door, and saw the hare at the door with his knees propped up on his hands. I'll challenge you again to prove that I'm faster than you!"

When the tortoise saw the hare's competitive look, he said with a smile on his face, "I thought there was something urgent going on. Well, I accept your challenge." The tortoise and the hare agreed to race at 8:00 am tomorrow at the forest race course.

The next day, there were no clouds. They both arrived at the field according to the time. Outside the field, the beasts were like a tide, they all heard that the tortoise and the hare were going to fight in this field, so they came to see the fun, the birds in the trees cheerfully sang the opening song, the sun in the sky also noticed here.

The animals were talking and divided into two camps, the "pro-turtle faction" and the "pro-hare faction". They started to sing with each other. "The "pro-turtle faction" sang: "Hmph, the hare can win our calm, focused, single-minded turtle brother with its double-minded officers! The "pro-rabbit faction" did not dare to show weakness, and a sentence: "Hey, our brother rabbit is called "hairy legs", just your "turtle monk" can catch up? Can you catch up?"

As they were arguing, the head judge, Lion, roared, "Quiet!" When they heard the shout, they instantly became silent, holding their breath and staring at every move in the field. At that moment, it was so quiet that even a pin dropped could be heard, and the air was frozen.

The head referee gave the order: "Start!" Both contestants then rushed out. This time the rabbit focused single-mindedly only on the race, not distracted by anything else, nor tempted by anything else. He rushed straight to the finish line. But because he rushed too fast, the careless, stumbled on a stone and rolled forward a few meters with inertia. But, as the saying goes, "when a house is leaking, it's raining". It fell into a trap at once, which is simply worse.

The rabbit took a lot of effort. Finally, he climbed out. Just when he wanted to continue to make an effort to rush to the finish line. Suddenly heard a "Help!" The hare ran along the sound. The turtle was also caught in the trap. Although the hare is very aggressive, but also compassionate, and lends a hand to rescue. The tortoise saw that it did not care about the past and thanked it.

The race continued and both the hare and the tortoise walked and walked to a small river. But the hare could not swim, and there was no other track. What to do? The hare was very anxious and did not know what to do. Then the tortoise suddenly said, "Let me carry you to swim." He sat the hare on his hard shell and swam across. Finally, they reached the finish line at the same time. Immediately, there was thunderous applause outside the field, applauding for their mutual love and support.

After this incident, both the hare and the tortoise learned that: you lend a helping hand to others when they are in trouble. Others will also return the favor when you are in trouble.
