In the story of Children of the Wolf Valley, a boy named Naris lived in the prairie with his grandfather; they were lonely and only had each other. In one cold winter night, a group of hungry wolves attacked their camp again and again. To protect the sheep herd, shepherd dog Banug roared and crushed a wolf under his own body and ripped its throat…During the fierce fight, Banug’s eyes were scooped out by the wolves. Blind and staggering, he traced the smell of the wolves and dashed over. Banug sank his teeth into one wolf’s neck and wouldn’t let it go; however the other wolves ravaged his own body. Banug would rather die than retreat. He adhered to the shepherd dog’s mission.

In the story of Qinmuqie, Liuxia fell into the icy river to save a little deer, she choked down a few water and began to sink. Suddenly her arm was gripped - who had pulled and dragged ashore? In the cold winter, Liuxia went out to find the deer herd, a sudden blizzard came. She lost her way and was so worn out that she fell asleep in the snow. Who touched her face, dragged her clothes to pull her along the road? In the unexpected fire in the camp, Liuxia was choked by the strong smoke. Again, who dragged her collar and pulled her out of the tent? It is the shepherd dog Qinmuqie.

Cattle are diligent and honest, but have you seen a bull that gallops like a horse, that fights the wolves like a shepherd dog, or even resists the truck head with its own head? In Splendid, a calf with leopard spots in its skin is such a stubborn bull.

In an awe-inspiring tone, the author depicts the inner world of animals, both good and bad, love and hate, and the calling for the wild life, giving readers emotional agitation and profound reflection on life.
