"Why are you so persistent? Even if you stay on the other 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 saw hope." The old rabbit recalled the great country described by his father, with a feeling that things were right and wrong.
"My lord may not know that the West Wind Kingdom was an ideal homeland in the dreams of many demihumans many years ago."
"The founding monarch at that time was very enlightened, abolished slavery, and allowed orcs and other races to become citizens. This is really like a dream for small tribes who have wandered around for hundreds of years."
"It's a pity that I didn't see this scene with my own eyes. When my grandfather was a generation, the West Wind Kingdom began to slowly change."
"A small number of orcs who joined the country in the early days became the nobles of the country. At first everyone thought that good times were coming, but the old things happened again. These early join the fox ear clan, the leopard ear clan and other races that claim to be noble, treat them Orcs of other races are not friendly, even more unscrupulous."
"Humans also have to care about the laws of the kingdom and must not discriminate against orcs, and they are themselves, so there is no such thing as discrimination and oppression, and there is no shame in doing things."
"Many orcs of other races are not allowed to return to the ancient Fia grasslands to live in the north, and our Rabbit Ears are relatively weak and can only survive in this forest."
Loren Hill sat on a rock outside the village, watching the rabbits in the village busy cleaning up the mess, some helping the injured, some cleaning up various collapsed buildings, and some silently digging holes for burying. Those who unfortunately died in battle.
The old rabbit-eared village chief stood by, answering the girl's occasional inquiries.
"village head."
A young rabbit trotted over, and when he was approaching the girl, he kept slowing down, for fear of disturbing the noble lord.
"The village chief, the representatives of other nearby villages want to see the noble lord who killed the giant snake." He said carefully, but did not deliberately avoid Roland Hill to show that he had nothing else to hide.
"Lord Roland Hill, what do you think...?" The old village chief lowered his head and asked what the girl meant.
"Let them come over." The girl's light voice came from the tall rock.
"Okay, please wait a moment, I'll let them come here."
After a while, the village chief walked over with six or seven similarly dressed rabbits. Seeing that the sky was already dark, they set up braziers around the huge rock to illuminate the surrounding environment.
The representatives of several other villages first respectfully thanked the girl for her rescue, and then carefully asked the girl what her needs were, and they could do their best to satisfy them.
"I just passed by here, I don't want to see too tragic scenes."
The girl jumped off the rock, her long silver hair swaying gently in the evening wind, and her dusty face became a little sparkling under the firelight.
"That's all, don't think of me as a big hero, I'm not that good."
"No, maybe it's just a small thing in your eyes, but for us, the weaker ones, it really changes the life and death of the race."
One of the rabbits in a long linen coat lowered his head and said.
"Today is this village, and tomorrow may be our village. Snakes can never get enough to feed. If they eat today, they will be hungry tomorrow. It will be a matter of time before they attack other rabbit-eared villages."
"Okay, you say yes." The girl shook her head helplessly, her long hair swaying slightly.
"Respected adults, it doesn't matter if you need anything. If you really don't want anything, it will make us panic."
A rabbit in a coarse black coat said, and the other rabbits began to agree.
Roland 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 men will make them worry and fear, but letting them do things and pay them will make them feel at ease. Because it will send a message that they are still useful to the big shots, that they still have some value, rather than beings that can be thrown away 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. At least in that era, they still have the dignity as citizens of a big country and the value of contributing to this country.
And now they are living in the Quartet, they are nothing. Dignity has long become a luxury, and living is a problem that needs to be faced every day.
"Well, in fact, I live in seclusion not too far from here, and occasionally need some daily necessities, such as salt, iron and the like."
"No problem, just say what you need, and we will prepare it for you as quickly as possible."
The few rabbits present were ecstatic when they heard the news, which was simply too good.
At first, they thought that this girl was just traveling and passing by and would leave soon. After all, this place is far from the country where human beings live.
And she lives nearby, no matter what the girl asks, as long as she can get in touch with her, and occasionally come to the village, she can get long-term shelter. There is nothing better than this.
Several village representatives 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 some kind of tacit understanding, these rabbits knelt down in front of the girl collectively.
"Our Rabbit Ears are willing to follow you, in order to serve as a dog and horse, and we implore the adults to take them in!"
Although the orcs have been humiliated in the past few years, there has never been a group loyalty to a certain human being, at most it is only an expression of loyalty to the country.
But these rabbits are really desperate. Besides, the girl treats people equally and takes risks to save the village. They are deeply impressed. Just like the people who are about to sink in the river, seeing the only board floating by, they can only hold on to the only hope, even if they give everything.
"Fairy Wood"
"Ah? This..." Roland Hill looked at the group of rabbits bowing their heads in surprise.
