Features: [Preface] Dong Yufeng told me that this book needed to have an introduction written by Huang Yongyu, as many of the illustrations were inspired by Huang Yongyu's Six Records. A few days later, he said, "Yang Qun, why don't you help write it?" Of course, I asked if they couldn't get Huang Yongyu to do it. He said, "Huang Yongyu has the demeanor of a master combined with the simplicity of a person from Xiangxi. He is willing to help those who are learning, but he is afraid of the two giant dogs at his home." A few years ago, he and a friend went to Huang Yongyu's Wanhe Tang in Beijing. They didn't intend to disturb the old gentleman much, but Huang Yongyu got carried away in the conversation and invited them for dinner. The friend thought about the rented car waiting outside and went to tell the driver to leave first, forgetting about the two giant dogs in the yard. One of them jumped up and bit his arm, while the other growled and was about to act, but was stopped by someone in the yard. The dogs were foreign breeds, fierce only second to the Qiang dog, and were quite considerate in their biting, leaving only a few bloody marks through their clothes. They didn't dare to tell Huang Yongyu, and after dinner, they chatted with the old gentleman, watched TV, while the two dogs lay on the carpet. Huang Yongyu said, "If you don't move, they won't bite." They didn't even dare to uncross their legs. It was close to midnight when Huang Yongyu sent a car to take them into the city. They switched to a taxi and rushed to four hospitals before getting the rabies vaccine. Nowadays, although there are many ways to communicate, if they wanted Huang Yongyu to write the introduction, they should have visited him in person. But since they didn't dare to visit, they had to give up.
