There is a porcelain plate inlaid with Lu Xun's portrait on my mother's desk all the year round. According to my mother, Lu Xun's books were not burned during the Cultural Revolution. Except the complete works of Selected Works of Mao Zedong, the rest are all complete works of Lu Xun. Lu Xun, a sacred name, like all mythical figures pushed to high places, always has a deterrent breath and arrogant power around Lu Xun, which oppresses me from looking him in the eye. He is an indescribable miracle. In that changeable and disastrous era, in order to save the old China, Mr. Lu Xun thought deeply and explored, "Everyone is drunk, I wake up alone", and firmly chose to use a pen instead of a scalpel to remove the cancer of China people's closed heads. Some people say that Mr. Lu Xun's articles are not very good, but no one dares to say that his thoughts and spirit are not too hard. This spirit still shines with sharp light today. Speaking of Lu Xun's spirit, I know this, that is, with a pen as a spear, a knife as a sword, eating grass, milking cows, beating Reservoir Dogs, and almost uncompromisingly challenging all dark forces, "Forgive everyone!" "Look at the big finger coldly, bow your head and be a willing ox", "The most precious character of the semi-colonial people has no servility or obsequiousness". The images associated with it are loneliness, anger, passion and being alone. In front of him is an open gun that is completely invisible, and behind him is an endless sniper's shot that locusts can't put out. In a word, Lu Xun's life is the life of a soldier. I know Mr. Lu Xun from his works, and I have never seen him. When Mr. Lu Xun wrote Ah Q, I didn't expect that I was a pawn in the literary and art circles, so I didn't have the opportunity and motivation to visit for advice. My husband lives in Shanghai, and I don't like going to Shanghai, so I seldom meet him. Four years ago, in the early autumn, I went to Shanghai. My friends invited me to dinner and asked Mr. Wang to speak. However, Mr. Wang's letter must be forwarded by the bookstore; The next day he sent a letter saying: Yesterday's letter arrived too late. I hurried back to the north, but I couldn't go to Shanghai for two years, so the opportunity to meet my husband was lost forever! In a literary history (the title and author can't be remembered clearly), there is a sentence to the effect that "Lu Xun belongs to his own family, and later the imitators were Lao She and others." Yes, but it's not right. No, because I read some English literature and art, I decided to try my own pen. Dickens was my favorite reading at that time. As for Youdehouse (1) and Zhekubu (2), I was also delighted. No wonder as soon as I pick up the pen, I slip into humor. Yes, because of works like Ah Q, later writers could not but be influenced by him. Even if it is inconvenient to imitate in literature and thought, at least we should get some enlightenment and inspiration. Its influence is universal. An up-and-coming writer, although he said that he had his own creative path, his conscience must admit that he owed a debt to Mr. Lu Xun. Mr. Lu Xun's short stories and novels have really made the new literature and art stand firm and can compete with the old literature and art. In this way, some people say that I am Lu Xun School. Of course, I don't want to admit it, but I will never deny the greatness of Ah Q's author and the universal influence of his works in good conscience. I have never met Mr. Lu Xun, and I can only know him through his works, but now I don't even have a book in my hand! I can't quote anything. Let's make this memorial according to the impression he gave me. Of course, this will not be very accurate, and there may be great mistakes, but it is not easy for a person's works to leave a strong and deep impression on readers, even if there are some imperfections! People who have seen Mount Tai may not know it, but Gao Wei of Mount Tai will never forget it. What he misread did no harm to the greatness of Mount Tai. Look at the catalogue of Lu Xun's complete works, and probably no one dares to say: this is not a profound person. However, the word profound is not only a compliment to Mr. Lu Xun. Knowledge is not necessarily happiness. Some people, because they are knowledgeable, well-read and travel through history, dare not express their views and opinions, but adopt an attitude of just saying and not doing. This kind of person is like a museum keeper, who can only be conservative and do nothing. Some people, because of their intensive study of a certain kind of knowledge or art, slowly put on the shelf of scholars, taking what they know as the top grade of research, and there is nothing else to discuss. Their experiences are unprecedented and there is no one to come after them; If he also likes to create, he must find the source and basis of every word from the works he has read; He works rather than creates. He died of research. He died unjustly. Let's look at Mr. Lu Xun. In literature and art, he has extensive knowledge of ancient and modern China and foreign countries, but this knowledge did not scare him. He wrote excellent ancient poems, but he didn't respect the Tang Dynasty or the Han Dynasty. He put himself in a certain Sect and restricted himself with self-esteem. He can make ancient things, both theoretically and experimentally, and he is at the forefront of new literature and art; He doesn't hinder the creation of new things by exploring old things. He is interested in everything and is not fascinated by anything. He studies judgment at any time. His judgment makes him dare to speak regardless of old knowledge or new knowledge. His words are not a pedant's schoolbag, but an accurate instruction for people to continue their research. People who are more knowledgeable than him have been there before and will be there in the future; I'm afraid it's hard to meet one or two people in a century, because he has mastered all the learning methods of an era and always stands in the leading position with everything. He absorbed the spirit of the May 4th "revaluation", doubted the past, turned against the past, and returned the things of each era to each era. Contact with the literature and art of the East and the West, engaged in translation and creation. He doubted the past, and he was the first one. He can write excellent ancient poems and essays, and he also enthusiastically supports and leads the new literature and art. He is a monument of this era. In literature and art, he cares about everything and has made achievements in everything. Those who are less talented than him and have less work can only take one route, either being good at the old or being good at the new; He is like a policeman at a crossroads, directing all the traffic. At a certain point, someone can break his record, but who dares to compete with him in the "all-around" competition!
