The book "Peerless Fierce Dog" is a work that I completed about ten years ago, so when you read it, there may be some differences in information and value. After all, ten years have passed, and the world has changed a lot.

When I first wrote this book, my intention was simply to depict a dog—loyal, brave, and fearless, willing to give everything for its owner. Judging from the reviews and reactions, Ah Huang seems to have gained everyone's approval, which makes me very gratified.

My hometown is in the mountains of Anhua, Yiyang, Hunan. Many mountain people keep dogs, firstly to guard their homes and secondly to keep out wild animals.

In earlier years, mountain villages were poor, and there were many burglars. The forests were dense, and wild animals often eyed poultry and livestock. Dogs became a farmer's most reliable helper.

During those times, most families had no surplus food. People often mixed sweet potatoes into their rice, so dogs had even less chance of getting enough to eat. Therefore, even without special training as hunting dogs, village dogs would go into the mountains to hunt for food on their own, just like Ah Huang in the story.

When I was young, my grandfather kept a big yellow dog. It would go into the mountains to hunt at dawn, and when the family got up and opened the door, there would often be prey that it had brought back.

Most of its prey is missing limbs, and sometimes even its head is eaten to fill its stomach, but most of the good meat is left behind, with rabbits, porcupines, bamboo rats, and so on being the most common prey.

Of course, it gets injured occasionally, the worst being bitten by porcupines and covered in quills, looking like a big hedgehog.

Even so, it will remain fearless, recuperating for a few days before venturing back into the mountains, where porcupines will still be its prey.

That was my earliest impression of a loyal dog, and it was because of the memories it left me that Ah Huang came into being.

Later in the book, I actually wanted to add some more things to lengthen the book, making it like a traditional online novel, reaching a million words or even more.

As some readers have said, I could go on another adventure, to Changbai Mountain, Kunlun Mountain, Tianchi, etc. One adventure could yield hundreds of thousands of words.

I've considered it and thought about it, but in the end I still think it's best to end it like this.

The original intention of this book was simply to let everyone know about the dog Ah Huang, who possesses all the qualities that dogs should have: loyalty, courage, and fearlessness.

We have successfully completed this task, and it's better to feel a little unsatisfied than to go too far.

In the near future, we will have many more stories. I dare not say they will be better stories, but the protagonists of these stories will surely be as loyal and brave as Ah Huang.

When Hunan Daily interviewed me about my future writing plans, I mentioned that I would write a story about a dog park. Our great China is vast and rich in resources, with a wide variety of dog breeds, and it is indeed necessary to record it.

I've also thought about writing a story about police dogs and military dogs.

Most of the time, these silent warriors working on the front lines deserve our more writing and remembrance, and their deeds deserve our gratitude and respect.

These stories have largely taken shape in my mind, and I will probably write them down at some point in the future. The most difficult part right now is probably collecting the materials.

But with determination, anything is possible; it just takes time.

Well, that's the end of Ah Huang's story. If you have anything else to say to me, or any information to provide, please contact me.
