When he was full, or when his master called him, he went home. There are also many people in the village who come with dogs, and there is no rule here that requires the owner to hold the dog on a leash or anything, and there are very few dog bites.

It was in this image that Haji appeared in the bazaar, the first time in a week that he had appeared in a crowded area during the day. Although this scene was not new to him, he was still quite nervous. Caught in recent months, his life in captivity has made his personality sensitive and suspicious, and the pressure of survival has forced him to learn to beware of humans who are originally his kind. As a last resort, Haji learns to observe and adapt, and he must learn to get food from strange humans.

Haji found an elderly man who was dressed simply but looked clean, which meant that his living conditions and living environment were still very good. Even if such a person is in the countryside, he is a relatively wealthy family. And the age of sixty or seventy years old is seeing everything, at the age of teasing grandchildren. Such elderly people generally eat and drink without worry, and are compassionate, and generally do not act violently.

It was him, Haji secretly calculated, and silently followed the old man. The old man walked fast in front, and Haji followed closely, and the old man walked slowly, and Haji wandered around leisurely in the neighborhood. From time to time, he sniffed around, and when he saw that the old man was far away, he immediately followed, as if a very ordinary dog was following his owner to the market. This is the case in rural markets, and no one thinks anything unusual about a dog following an old man, except for a few more glances at Haji's black fur.

People don't know that this black Labrador, who looks like an ordinary dog, is a fighting dog that has lost his freedom in a few months, experienced life and death, and today is the first time in several months that he has walked freely in the sun. In fact, if you think about it, Haji only had a few months before and after his fall to Xinge, but these few months were enough to change many of Haji's views.

A few months ago, Haji didn't take stealing chickens and food too seriously, even if he was discovered by humans, he would have run away, so he never hid his tracks too much. But now Haji has become different, he is already extremely cautious. For him, human society is a good place for him to make a living, but threats are brewing for him all the time. He doesn't want to have too much malice towards people, but he is also extremely wary and sensitive to the proximity of humans. And the more this happens, the more Haji feels the importance of home, and only when he returns to his own home and his mother will he find the long-lost sense of security.

Following the old man to stop and go, the old man looked at this in the bazaar, touched that, Haji put on a curious look and waited aside, and when the old man walked forward, he walked forward, and no one could find his abnormality. After staggering all the way until noon, the old man found a stall selling ramen and sat down, and asked the stall owner for a bowl of ramen. Haji continued to disguise himself as a family dog and lay down behind the old man in an unobtrusive place.

No one doubted Haji, and the people continued to do their own thing as if they hadn't seen him. The stall owner brought the noodles to the old man, and the old man began to eat the noodles slowly. At this time, the other diner finished his meal and left, and the boss went over to collect the dishes and chopsticks for the man, and then poured the remaining noodles from the bowl into the swill bucket. Seeing this scene, Haji stood up with a complicated and sad feeling, and timidly approached the swill bucket.

Who would have thought that a software engineer who received a high salary in his previous life would now be reduced to the point of becoming a stray dog, picking up food thrown away by humans from a swill bucket to eat. But what can be done? Haji's first priority at this moment is survival, all the face and the inside are of no use to him at this time, only food is the most useful. What's more, who knows how depressed he is now? No former colleagues and friends, nor his lover in his previous life, and even his mother in his previous life, he doesn't know where he is crying at this moment because he misses his son! In order to go home to visit his mother, what is this humiliation? Is it important to have enough to eat?

Face is like this, when you can't even solve the problem of survival, face is just a piece of paper that you think you think is right, and it is not easy to even go to the toilet. Of course, Haji can't even use paper in the toilet now, and he still has to accept this reality. What if you don't accept this reality? Will you end this life? Why don't you die on a hunger strike when you first became a little milk dog!

Life is precious, and no matter what kind of life it is, it is a challenge. We may not know where we came from or where we are going, but we can seriously appreciate the scenery that belongs to us in this life. Whether it is wind and rain, flowers and sunshine, or pain and sorrow, this is life itself, which is worth bearing, joy, sadness and struggle. This is what Haji understands as the meaning of life.

Descartes said: I think, therefore I exist. For Haji, life is all the meaning of his existence, otherwise all his memories, emotions, memories and sustenance of his past life would be meaningless. He needed a chance to look at his past life, and even if he couldn't figure out where he came from or where he was going, he wanted to find a place where he could feel at ease.

In ancient times, Master Hui Ke, the second ancestor of Zen Buddhism, could break his arm to seek the Dharma, and what he was asking for was not just peace of mind? Haji asked himself that he did not have the understanding of Master Hui Ke, but why did he not want to understand the root of life? Even if he still got nothing in the end, he could at least do this peace of mind.

In his previous life, Haji had seen more than once those cowards who had committed suicide. Some people are frustrated because of love, some people are frustrated because of shopping malls, and even some people are frustrated because of bad test scores, frustration in playing games, or give up their lives after being criticized, those people are really too stupid and too dissatisfied. When you leave this world, you impose all your pain on the people around you, creating too much pain for others. And what about the world? It won't change in the slightest way because you're gone.

Haji had already made a mistake once in his previous life, and he would not make it a second time and easily lose his second life. He will not choose to be cowardly and give up, he wants to live strongly, even if he loses his self-esteem. His current life is no longer his own, and he is burdened with the hope and desire for life and freedom of many fighting dogs, such as Czech wolfdogs, pitts, wolfdogs, Tibetan mastiffs, and the Caucasus. He needs to live for them, to run freely for them. If he had the chance, he would also avenge their hatred for being slaughtered by humans.

However, no matter how much Haji thought about it, no matter how philosophical and realistic he was, no one knew that a stray dog had so many ideas. One could only see a big black dog that seemed to be quite gentle-spirited and went to the swill bucket, and people knew that the dog must be hungry. Some people have begun to look at the owner of the big black dog with contempt, thinking: This owner is really, don't look at his own clean clothes, but the dog does not feed, so that the dog himself goes to find food, but this dog is quite loyal to follow him.

There was no way, Haji was hungry, especially after eating raw food for many days, which made Haji, who was a man in his previous life, very uncomfortable. After all, I am used to eating cooked food for decades, and I always eat raw food as if it was in a primitive state, which is really uncomfortable after a long time. It's just some leftover noodles now, but they can be used to satisfy your stomach.

Seeing a big black dog approaching the swill bucket, the stall owner did not react violently. One is that the dog was brought by the diner, and he is not good at offending the diner, and the other is that although the dog looks quite big, he has a docile temperament and is not annoying at all. So instead of stopping Haji from approaching the swill bucket, the stall owner scooped it out with a spoon and poured the noodles into a clean basin and placed them on the ground for Haji to eat.

Haji is also very hungry these days, and he can take care of many other things when he has food, so he directly eats the noodles that are not much in the basin. When the noodles were finished, Haji didn't even get half full, and he could only eat the noodles while watching the diners eat the noodles slowly.

But the old man, who Haji pretended to be his master, was really good-natured, and knew that Haji was hungry when he saw the way Haji watched everyone eat noodles. He said to the stall owner, "Boss, let's have another small bowl, don't put salt in it, give it to it!"

As he spoke, the old man's chopsticks pointed at Haji. The boss responded neatly, and said in his heart that you should have been like this a long time ago, such an obedient dog should be the owner's own full but don't care, that's too much to say.

Hearing that the old man was going to bring him a bowl of noodles, and it was unsalted, Haji thanked the old man in his heart. Obviously, the old man has raised dogs, has enough knowledge of raising dogs, and loves dogs in his heart. Thinking of this, Haji simply stood up and gave the old man a direct look. Turning around when he was done, Haji gave another gesture to the kind stall owner.

The diners who were eating were curious and praised the black dog when they saw that the black dog was so smart that he would actually thank the owner who gave it food. The stall owner was thanked by Haji, and he was also interested in Haji, and he said to the old man while making noodles: "The old man has a good dog, he is really sensible!"

This dog? This is not my dog! I just watched him follow him for a long time, and I guess he was hungry. It turned out that the old man had already noticed that Haji was appearing left and right in front of him, but Haji was not at all hostile to people, so he didn't drive him away.
