Chapter 76 Lu Xun Seven

Mao Dun said: "Sometimes we reflect on ourselves, and we often wonder that we can't help but have some 'Ah Q looks' in us... The author's idea seems to be only portraying the unprogressive nature hidden in the bone marrow of the Chinese nation,——Ah Q phase .” Zheng Zhenduo said: "Many people think that this Ah Q is the epitome of Chinese people." Qian Xingcun criticized Lu Xun: "Not only did he not grasp the era, but he never followed the era." Qian's article was published in 1928, and someone wrote an article to refute it immediately: "The Age of Ah Q is not dead."

Lu Xun himself said: "It is really difficult in China to draw the souls of such silent citizens... I only rely on my own perception, and write these lonelyly, as what I have passed through in my eyes. life in China." In 1933, Lu Xun said in his article "Revisiting Reservation": "Twelve years ago, Lu Xun wrote an article "The True Story of Ah Q", which probably exposed the weakness of the people." Lu Xun believed that "the biggest root cause of the degeneration of Chinese national character is short-sightedness, adding 'cowardice' and 'greed', but this has been cultivated for a long time, and it is not easy to get rid of it for a while."

How long this "moment" was, Lu Xun did not say. The root of the disease that has been formed for thousands of years is difficult to get rid of in decades.History has imperceptible inertia. The great French writer Romain Rolland was deeply moved when he read "The True Story of Ah Q". He wrote: "Poor Ah Q will remain in people's memory for a long time." It can be seen that there are also Ah Q abroad. Mao Zedong pointed out in "On the Ten Great Relationships": "The True Story of Ah Q is a good novel. I advise comrades who have read it to read it again, and comrades who have not read it to read it carefully."

Really deserve a good look. Lu Xun's research on national character has a long history, and it was a concentrated eruption.He wants to "save the children" so that when they grow up, they will "misbe in society in the dark." Today in the 21st century, we regret to find that Ah Q is still walking around, although he no longer wears a felt hat, and no longer sings "I will beat you with a steel whip!".Cowardly, slippery, short-sighted, neutral; numb, lucky, forgetful, speculative; inferior, arrogant, self-deceiving, bullying the weak and fearing the hard... Ah Q in the academic world, business world, performing arts, Ah Q in the market, Ah Q in the countryside, Ah Q in the office building... …

The refurbished spiritual victory method is still being strongly promoted. "Market prospects" are difficult to measure. Around the 1920s, Lu Xun became Lu Xun and became a banner of the New Culture Movement, which "excited the hearts of some young people." Because of his extraordinary conception and unique style, his works attracted a large number of followers.He is still in the Ministry of Education, taking part-time courses at Peking University and giving lectures as a lecturer.He spent many years of savings, sold his old house in Shaoxing, bought a house in Badaowan, Beijing, and brought his mother, Zhu An and younger brother to live with him.He went back to Shaoxing once, and Runtu came to see him. The handsome boy at the beginning became very dull, like a puppet.Lu Xun wrote the famous "Hometown" for this reason, and his melancholy eyes aimed at the oppressed bottom.

In his early years in the mines in Nanjing, Lu Xun was deeply impressed by the miners who "worked like ghosts". The sick society and the suffering bottom, the two, firmly involved Lu Xun's nerves. He was looking, looking deeply. Compassion and compassion are a great tradition of Chinese culture. Du Fu looked.Bai Juyi looked at it.Su Dongpo looked.Look at Lu You... In July 1923, Lu Xun and Zhou Zuoren suddenly had a falling out and started to make food for themselves.At the beginning of the next year, he moved out of Badaowan and lived in Xisitiao Zhuanta Hutong.On June 11th, Lu Xun returned to Badaowan to pick up his belongings, "By entering the West Chamber, Qimeng and his wife stood out and beat them." Qimeng was Zhou Zuoren, and his Japanese wife was named Yu Taishigehisa.

The brothers fell out and never saw each other, which was related to this Japanese woman.No details.Chuan Dao, a mutual friend of the Zhou brothers, was an eyewitness and wrote the article "Brothers and Brothers". One of Lu Xun's collections of essays reminiscing about the past is called , which shows that he is concerned about his younger brother.Kawashima also disclosed some things after the brothers fell out. The Zhou brothers have different ways of life.There have been many discussions, so I won’t repeat them here. Lu Xun transferred from Peking University to Beijing Women's Normal University; and moved to Santiao in the west for a long time, jokingly calling the workshop "Tiger's Tail".Over the past few years, he has received a large number of visitors, mostly young people. The "May 4th" movement brought Chinese youth to the foreground of history, and Lu Xun is one of their enduring idols.Make countless young people want to shout.The room where Lu Xun received guests was small, and he smoked a lot, so he often opened the glass windows to let in the air.There is a small yard outside the window with poplar trees and a few plum blossoms blooming in winter.

The conversation is not limited to the topic, and it often lasts for most of the day.The visiting youth stayed to eat.When words collided fiercely, Lu Xun smoked quietly and looked at the poplar or plum blossoms outside the glass window. This situation is in stark contrast to those years in the Shaoxing Guild Hall. Lu Xun was in his early forties.He got along very well with young people twenty years his junior.Arguing, discussing, mixed with light-hearted small talk and good laughs.Thoughts bloom freely.This is a Chinese-style thought seminar.The spark of thought splashes into society.During this period, Lu Xun was busy supporting the Weiming Society for young people, and running the magazines "Yusi" and "Wang Yuan", while his writing aimed at prose poetry.Jumping and short sentences, gloomy and hot images, as if thinking is automatically looking for the crater.Reminiscent of Baudelaire's...

Xiao Jun and others recalled: It shocked their hearts. Lu Xun gave a lecture on "Symbol of Depression" by Chu Chuan Baicun at the Women's Normal University.This monograph on art was translated by Lu Xun. It has two sources of thought: Bergson's theory of creation and spiritual continuity; Freud's psychoanalysis. Art is a product of boredom.Depression stems from the disapproval of the existing order, being reserved and clinging to the field of "not".Depression is the accumulation of energy.Lu Xun began to be depressed when he was a teenager. He recalled: "Father's poverty is also a good thing. It made me think about many things." He was depressed in Nanjing, Tokyo and Sendai, and he was still depressed after returning to China.He put his body aside, allowing his spirit to grow tenaciously against the anguish.A warrior in the spiritual world, this seems to be destined.Depression in different periods seems to have its own name, the previous one was called shouting, and the current one is called wandering.

The editorial department of "New Youth" was dispersed, which greatly stimulated Lu Xun.Chen Duxiu went to Shanghai, intending to bring this influential magazine into a political and operational level; Hu Shi got into the ivory tower of "sorting out the country's history". "Lonely New Wenyuan, Ping An Old Battlefield. There are only two soldiers, and the lotus halberd is still wandering." This is the inscription of the collection of novels. Thinkers have a hard time going.Before confirming my choice, I would rather be lonely and hesitate. The so-called independent thinking is bound to be accompanied by loneliness and hesitation.

In China, loneliness and solitude are almost synonymous with thought. Lu Xun was depressed and depressed. Repression is like pressing a balloon into water. The deeper you press, the higher the balloon will bounce. Thought, art, language, are the result of stress.Lu Xun's writing is as hard and beautiful as diamonds, which is the result of long-term stress.His ease and casualness are obtained from places that are not relaxed and casual.Just like his humor, it has a broad background that is not humorous. According to the understanding of ordinary people, Lu Xun in the mid-1920s had already gained both fame and fortune, but why did he still have trouble with himself?An official of the Ministry of Education, a full professor of a university, a famous writer, and a youth idol, he is already a social elite and upper-class figure in the eyes of many people.However, he has never left the impression of a social celebrity. His life is very simple, and he likes to do everything by himself, including manual work such as smashing coal and chopping firewood. Thinkers prefer to do rough work and manual work, and there are many examples at home and abroad.Ji Kang forged iron, Tao Qian farmed, Leibniz worked as a watchmaker, and Wittgenstein gave away a huge inheritance to be a gardener in a middle school.Heidegger is the son of a carpenter. He also likes to play with hammers and build cabins on Todtnau Mountain. His outstanding thought of "handiness and handiness" that shocked Europe came from the ups and downs of hammers. of. Rustic and rich, luxurious and monotonous. Only a state of simplicity can meet richness. Jia Baoyu in Cao Xueqin's works is a simple person, a thinker, a double aristocrat of spirit and material, contrasting with all kinds of nouveau riche.A thinker is a feeler.Those who can feel are those who can be happy! A hard-working old farmer has a rich sense of nature and life, which is better than dozens of famous people.The latter is actually quite pitiful. His highest state is nothing but an animal-like cycle of desire. Lu Xun inadvertently stays in a simple state, far away from the persistent state of an inert group. The monotony of luxury means that when a person owns a car, he no longer sees the advantages and advantages of a bicycle. Starting from simplicity, Lu Xun developed his rich and powerful thinking.Rather, all strong thinking is adjacent to simplicity. Thought and luxury are not compatible. If Lu Xun in the 1920s lived the luxurious life of a successful person, went out to show off, and went home to enjoy himself, then his "ideology" would have trouble with him. Lu Xun wore a patched shirt and leather shoes to attend classes at the Women's Normal University, which made the rich ladies cover their mouths and smile coquettishly.Is he the style of a celebrity?From the Wei, Jin, Tang and Song Dynasties to the Ming and Qing Dynasties, and the Republic of China, there are too many stories about celebrities and madmen who don’t care about trivial matters. Is Lu Xun a member of this peculiar team?The girls discussed in private. Lu Xun talked about Chuchuanbaicun in class and criticized Freud.He repeatedly criticized the theory of the subconscious mind, but it is reminiscent of his subconscious mind that has been controlled by consciousness. The sublimated Lu Xun may still be at the beginning of looking back at the sublimated foundation. Lu Xun, who is well versed in both Chinese and Western cultures and arts, gave his lectures freely, quoting from many sources, and full of wit and wit.He is not a scholar-type professor, and there is ideological support behind the knowledge.He had no intention of bringing out a group of female warriors, but he was able to influence them subtly. Students from Tsinghua University, Peking University, and Women's Normal University read Lu Xun's books.Read "Yusi" weekly magazine, "Wild Plains" magazine, and the works of Hu Shi, Liang Shiqiu, Zhou Zuoren, Lin Yutang and others. The anti-imperialist and anti-feudal voices of the "May 4th" movement continued.Voices are also splitting. The trend of Women's Normal University continued, driving away the rogue female principal Yang Yinyu. Liu Hezhen, who has always been gentle, talks and laughs, and has two small dimples, is one of the student leaders.She is popular among students and has a gentle charisma. Liu Hezhen, who has a round and pretty face, admires Lu Xun.She is not rich, but she resolutely booked "Wildland" for a whole year. On March 18, 1926, the young and lively Liu Hezhen fell into a pool of blood. On this day, more than 30,000 people marched in Beijing to protest the "May 30th" tragedy created by the imperialist powers in Shanghai, and to protest against the intimidation of Duan Qirui's government by the imperialist powers in Beijing with the "eight-nation ultimatum".The students were patriotic and petitioned with bare hands, but they were suddenly hit by bullets: the traitor Duan Qirui ordered the massacre, the gunfire lasted for more than ten minutes, and a team of swords and sticks rushed out of the yamen, and the moaning wounded fell to the ground. were killed.Liu Hezhen, the chairperson of the Women's Normal University Students' Self-Government Association, and several of her classmates were shot to death with bullets, knives and sticks. Lu Xun named this bloody day: "The darkest day since the Republic of China." He wrote "Remembrance of Mr. Liu Hezhen" and "The Flowerless Rose No. 2". "I really have nothing to say. I just feel that the world I live in is not human. The blood of more than forty young people is overflowing around us, making it difficult for me to breathe and see. What words can there be? Long songs should cry, It must be done after a painful decision. And the insidious arguments of several so-called scholars and literati since then have made me feel sad. I am beyond angry. I will deeply appreciate the deep sadness of this non-human world; with my greatest sorrow Shown in the non-human world... then take this as a meager sacrifice of the deceased, and dedicate it to the spirit of the deceased." "This is not the end of one thing, but the beginning of one thing...The blood debt must be repaid with the same things." Warlord traitor, murder without blinking an eye.Lu Xun wrote articles like this and published them at the risk of his beheading.Soldiers are not afraid of bloodshed, but there is no need to make fruitless sacrifices. Lu Xun painfully appealed: Petitions can stop from now on. In this March of 1926, Lu Xun's appearance and articles written shocked the world and wept ghosts and gods.The dead were speechless, and the post-dead made such a thorough sound.
