"Why are you so persistent? Even if you stay on the side of the mountain, it
won't be worse than it is now." The girl was a little puzzled by the choice of
the rabbit ears at that time.
"Probably I saw hope." The old rabbit recalled the great country described by
his father's generation, with a feeling of right and wrong.
"You may not know that the Westwind Kingdom was the ideal hometown in the
dreams of many Asians many years ago."
"The founding monarch at the time was very enlightened, abolished slavery, and
allowed orcs and other races to become nationals. This is really like a dream
for the small tribes who have wandered around for hundreds of years."
"It's a pity that I didn't see this situation with my own eyes. In my
grandfather's generation, the Westwind Kingdom began to change slowly."
"A small number of orcs who joined the country in the early days became the
nobles of the country. At first, everyone thought that a good time had come,
but they didn’t expect it to be a repeat of the old things. The fox and
leopard-eared races who joined in the early days regarded themselves as noble
races. Orcs of other races are not friendly, and even more unscrupulous."
"Humans have to be concerned about the laws of the kingdom and must not
discriminate against the orcs, and they are themselves, so naturally there is
no discrimination and oppression, and they are even more unscrupulous.
"Many orcs of other races are not allowed to return to live in the ancient Fia
grassland in the north, and our rabbit ears are relatively weak, and we can
only survive in this forest."
Lorrain Hill was sitting on a rock outside the village, watching the rabbits
in the village busy cleaning up the mess, some assisting the injured, some
clearing various collapsed buildings, and some silently digging pits and
burying them. Those companions who tragically died in the battle.
And the old village chief with rabbit ears stood by, answering the occasional
inquiries of the girl.
"The village chief."
A young rabbit ran over in small steps, and when he was approaching the girl,
he kept slowing down again, for fear of disturbing the noble adult.
"The village chief, the representatives of other nearby villages want to see
the noble lord who killed the giant snake." He said cautiously, and did not
deliberately avoid Lorrain Hill to show that he had nothing else to conceal.
"Lord Lorrain Hill, do you see...?" The old village chief lowered his head and
asked the girl what she meant.
"Let them come here." The girl's light voice came from the tall rock.
"Okay, please wait a moment, I will let them come."
After a while, the village chief brought six or seven rabbits with similar
dresses over. Seeing that the sky had dimmed, they set up a brazier around the
huge rock to illuminate the surrounding environment.
Several representatives from other villages first thanked the girl
respectfully for her rescue, and then carefully asked the girl what she
wanted, and they could do everything they could to satisfy.
"I just passed by here, don't want to see too tragic scene."
The girl jumped off the rock, her long silver hair swaying gently in the
evening breeze, and her slightly dusty face became a little crystal clear
under the firelight.
"That's it, you don't have to think of me as a great hero, I'm not that
powerful."
"No, maybe it's just a small thing in your eyes, but for the weak and weak, it
really changes the survival of the race."
One of the rabbits in a linen coat lowered his head and said.
"Today is this village, and tomorrow may be our village. Snakes are never fed
enough. If they eat today, they will be hungry tomorrow. Sooner or later they
will attack other villages with rabbit ears."
"Well, you say yes." The girl shook her head helplessly, and her long hair
shook slightly.
"Dear lord, if you have any needs, it's okay to say. If you really don't want
anything, it will make us more scared."
A rabbit wearing a coarse black cloth spoke, and the other rabbits began to
echo.
Lorrain Hill looked at these earnest rabbits, and gradually understood their
situation and thoughts.
Yes, the huge gap between the strengths and the slight disgust of the big
people will make them worry about fear, and letting them do things and pay
will make them feel at ease. Because this will send a message that they are
still useful to big people, they are still a little valuable, and not an
existence that can be discarded and thrown away at any time.
This is why even though the Crazy Fang Empire did not treat the orcs of some
races well, there are still countless tribes who miss that era. UU reading
www.uukanshu.com, at least in that era, they still have the dignity as the
citizens of a big country and the value of making contributions to this
country.
And now they are living everywhere, they are nothing. Dignity has long been an
extravagant hope, and living is a problem that needs to be faced every day.
"Well, I actually live in seclusion not too far from here, and occasionally
need some daily necessities, such as salt and iron."
"No problem, just say what you need, we will prepare it for you quickly."
The few rabbits present were ecstatic when they heard this message, which is
simply great.
At first they thought that this girl was just passing by on a trip, and she
would leave soon. After all, this place is far away from the country where
humans live.
And she lives nearby, no matter what the girl asks for, as long as she can
contact her and come to the village occasionally, she can get long-term
asylum. There is nothing better than this.
Several representatives of the village even felt that the girl's request was
too cheap, which made them still very uneasy.
After looking at each other, as if they had reached a certain tacit
understanding, these rabbits collectively knelt down in front of the girl.
"Our rabbit ears are willing to follow you, in order to do the work of dogs
and horses, I implore adults to take in!"
Although the orcs have been humiliated over the years, there has not been any
group loyalty to a certain human being. At most, they just show their loyalty
to the country.
But these bunnies are really desperate, and the girl kind of waiting for
people, risking to save the village is also deeply impressed by them. Just as
the people who were about to sink in the river saw the only plank floating by,
they could only hold on to the only hope, even if they gave everything.
"Hey? This..." Lorrain Hill looked at the group of rabbits bowing their heads
in surprise.
