When writing these works, Mr. Lu Xun's state of mind had already changed. He stopped "screaming" and instead focused on the peasants and intellectuals who were under the heavy pressure of feudal forces. He mourned their misfortune and was angry about them. In the profound and broad historical picture, he embodied his persistent exploration of life and future.
