Lu Xun has been acclaimed Father of modern Chinese literature. He is the first writer to use the vernacular to write fiction. His short stories have laid a solid foundation for the development of modern Chinese fiction. Call to Arms (1923) and Wandering (1926) represent the greatest achievement of Chinese fiction creation at that time. His short stories are not only profound in thinking, but also worthy of admiration for their great value and innovation in art. Besides, there are abundant heavily Chinese culture-bound images in his stories, which are of great significance in cross-cultural communication.
