What are the stories about the Year of the Rabbit?

Stories about the Year of the Rabbit include: tortoise and rabbit racing, waiting for rabbits, and so on.

The story of the tortoise and rabbit race is as follows:

Once upon a time, there was a tortoise and a rabbit arguing about who could run fast. They decided to have a game, chose the route and set off.

The rabbit took the lead and ran for a while. Seeing that it was far ahead of the tortoise, he thought he could have a rest under the tree, relax and continue the game.

The rabbit soon fell asleep under the tree, and the clumsy tortoise overtook it along the way and reached the finish line, becoming a veritable champion. When the rabbit woke up, he realized that he had lost.

Of course, the rabbit was disappointed to lose the game, so he did some preventive work and analyzed the root cause of the failure. Obviously, it failed because it was too confident, too careless and too hasty.

If it doesn't take everything for granted, the tortoise can't beat it. So, it invited the tortoise to play another game, and the tortoise agreed. This time, the rabbit went all out, from beginning to end, running in one breath, several kilometers ahead of the tortoise to reach the finish line.

Now it's turtle's turn to review. It is very clear that it can't beat the rabbit according to the current game mode. He thought for a moment, and then invited the rabbit to take part in another competition, but the route was slightly different.

The rabbit agreed, and then they set off at the same time. In order to ensure the promise of self-reliance, the rabbit flew out and ran at full speed until it met a wide river, and the end of the race was on the other side of the river a few kilometers away.

The rabbit just sat there and didn't know what to do at the moment. At this time, the tortoise staggered all the way, rushed into the river, swam to the other side, continued to crawl and finished the race.
