Zhu Guangqian is good at applying metaphors and similes in his argumentative writing. The study on his works shows that many of his works are typical examples and images about rural life, social conventions and natural scenery. These descriptions of typical rural events and images in his works constitut a threedimensional picture of rural life in Southwestern Anhui at the end of Qin dynasty. The choosing of rural life images in his works discloses Zhu Guangqian’s deep homeland consciousness and rural complex, which is not only the result of his homesickness complex when he lived in cities, the humanistic orientation of his aesthetic and literary writing, but also a reflection of the collective unconsciousness in the Chinese nation.
