Bad Joke | 017
Once upon a time, there was a snail who felt his life was too slow. He walked slowly, ate slowly, even thought slowly. One day, he decided to visit the legendary 'Master of Speed,' who was said to be able to teach any creature how to become fast. The snail crawled for three years and finally reached the cave where the Master lived. The Master was a cheetah, lounging in the sun. The snail, panting, said, "Master, I want to become fast, please teach me!" The cheetah opened one eye and said, "Are you sure? Becoming fast comes with a price." The snail replied, "I'm willing to pay any price!" The cheetah said, "Alright, then first answer me a question – why do you want to become fast?" The snail said, "Because I'm always late for dates, and my girlfriend is about to break up with me." The cheetah nodded and said, "Then you don't need to become fast." The snail anxiously asked, "Why?" The cheetah said, "Because your girlfriend is a turtle. She hasn't even arrived yet." The snail was stunned. "How did you know?" The cheetah said, "She left three days ago to find you. She should still be at the foot of the mountain." Upon hearing this, the snail almost teared up and said, "Then what should I do?" The cheetah said, "If you start crawling back now, you'll meet her in about two years. Then you can slowly walk together, slowly talk, and slowly grow old. Isn't that love?" The snail was silent for a long time and then said, "Master, are you really the Master of Speed? Why does it feel like you speak so slowly?" The cheetah yawned and said, "Everything I just said actually took only 0.3 seconds. It's just that you're listening slowly."

Author"You're the one who's slow to hear." Snail: "..." So the snail decided not to hurry anymore. It slowly crawled back and, two years later, met its girlfriend. The two snails walked slowly together, talked slowly, and grew old slowly. As for Master Cheetah, he continued to bask in the sun in front of his cave. Occasionally, when an animal came to seek his guidance, he would only say, "Are you sure you want to be fast? If you slow down a bit, you can see the scenery." Later, that sentence was carved at the entrance of the cave and became the most famous motto in the forest. However, it was a snail that carved the letters, so it took forty years to finish.
