Abstract
For thousands of years, Bo Yi and Shu Qi are always the hermit models who are familiar to most Chinese intellectuals in different ages of China. The hermit in “Gathering Vetch” written by LU Xun is one that is caught in a humiliated life, rather than being lofty and great. He has changed the reader’s thoughts on the traditional image of hermits. The hermit in Old Tales Retold is humiliated and weak, destroying the traditional image, which reflects LU Xun’s spirit of suspicious and sympathy on hermit and also reveals spectators’ indifference and critique on the old China’s social reality. LU Xun has kept the passion for fight.
