After the airship lands.
Jia Liping and others walked down first.
The square below was already overcrowded, and Zhang Meng led a group of Hangcheng County officials to stand straight to greet them. The red carpet has already been laid out under the airship.
There was a sea of people surrounding the square, and every citizen watched with bated breath.
Watching Jia Liping walking down, he then looked expectantly at the people behind him. Seeing Liu Jinghong walking down, he continued to look forward to the people behind him.
I saw a series of people filing down and then standing on both sides of the red carpet. All the people held their breath.
Finally, Li Zhen appeared on the escalator of the airship.
Li Zhen held the railing with one hand and waved in all directions with the other hand. Looking around, there are huge crowds of people, all of whom are fellow villagers from Hangcheng County and from their own hometown.
He didn't say anything, just waved his hand.
The common people instantly exploded and exploded.
The sound was everywhere, everyone was dancing and shouting in surprise:
"Li Zhen! Li Zhen!"
"Li Zhen, you are back!"
"Hangcheng County has been waiting for you."
"Li Zhen finally returned to his hometown."
“…”
The chaotic sounds formed a roar, which moved people like Jia Li and others who had seen the world.
Li Zhen once traveled, and everywhere he went, people were very enthusiastic.
But if I ask myself, there is not a single person in Hangcheng County who is as enthusiastic as everyone else. Everyone in Hangcheng County, including old, young, women and children, sincerely admired Li Zhen. Li Zhen is of great significance to Hangcheng County, almost as a spiritual leader.
Everyone even felt from the bottom of their hearts that Hangcheng County existed just for Li Zhen.
When Zhang Meng saw Li Zhen, he couldn't help but be excited, especially under the warm atmosphere of the people, his eyes were red.
Looking at the person standing on the escalator slowly walking down, watching him receiving the admiration of the entire Hangcheng County, watching him standing in the peerless and extraordinary position he is now in.
Zhang Meng vaguely recalled the two teenagers who rode in a carriage and went to Huangpu County to take the exam with the blessings of the folks in Hangcheng County many years ago.
Once upon a time I was young!
At that time, Li Zhen was a thin child, immature and young. He had nothing, and even the expenses for taking the exam were provided by the finance department of Hangcheng County and the school.
Become famous all over the world!
Now the boy has become a young man, his figure is still thin, but there is an endless halo behind him. He is so majestic and majestic that nothing in the world can defeat him.
This is someone who came out of Hangcheng County. For thousands of years, it has been the only pride of Hangcheng County. Written in history, even thousands of years later, people in Hangcheng County can pat their chests and say: "I am from Hangcheng County, Li Zhen's hometown."
“…”
Taking a deep breath, Zhang Meng quickly stepped forward and shook hands with Li Zhen, not with one hand, but with both hands.
Li Zhen also used both hands to hold Zhang Meng tightly.
Zhang Meng looked at the young man with emotion and sighed: "Thanks to you for all the hard work these years. I'm finally home."
Home…
Li Zhen was not only in a daze, but when he looked around, every citizen was roaring excitedly. Suddenly he felt something in his heart and laughed loudly: "Yes, I'm home."
At this moment, at the end of the red carpet, several children dressed like dolls held up banners.
Then he shouted in a sweet voice: "Warmly welcome Li Zhen back to his homeland."
The banner read: Hangcheng County warmly welcomes Li Zhen to visit his hometown.
The children looked at Li Zhen with great curiosity, looking at this figure who was regarded as a god by his parents and teachers. His eyes were innocent, but full of admiration.
Not to mention Hangcheng County, among all the children and teenagers in New Kyushu, who did not grow up listening to the legend of Li Zhen
"Welcome, welcome, warm welcome."
Several children shouted in unison.
Zhang Meng and others laughed loudly and shouted: "Welcome, welcome, warm welcome."
The sound spread like a tide, and tens of thousands of people in Hangcheng County jumped to their feet and shouted in unison:
"Welcome, welcome, warm welcome!"
"Welcome, welcome, warm welcome!"
outside the city. The outsiders who were driven out couldn't help but be moved. They looked at each other in shock when they heard the shouts in the city.
Then they rushed towards the city gate. Guards kept strict watch. They couldn't get in, but they couldn't stop their curiosity and excitement. They looked inside, but couldn't see anything. All you can see is a sea of people.
Marvel at Li Zhen's cohesion.
Marvel at Li Zhen’s appeal.
I was even more amazed that all the people in New Kyushu had inexplicable admiration for Li Zhen.
The special case of Hangcheng County, Hangcheng County, has already made Li Zhen a myth. Li Zhen is almost their belief.
Li Zhen walked forward with Zhang Meng leading the way. As he walked, Li Zhen smiled sincerely and greeted the people around him.
Suddenly stopped.
Zhang Meng quickly introduced: "This is 'Times Square', and this is your statue."
Li Zhen looked forward and saw that it was indeed a stone sculpture of exquisite craftsmanship. The stone sculpture is about ten meters high, which is considered very huge.
But the stone sculpture is himself, with expressions and details that are lifelike and lifelike. The stone sculpture stood there with his hands behind his back, seeming to be deep in thought.
Li Zhen blushed a little: "That's not the case, why do you want to make a stone sculpture?"
I'm really sorry...
Zhang Meng said: "At that time, you became the number one scholar in Kyushu. After you left Hangcheng County, the people collectively discussed it and said that Hangcheng County had not produced anyone who could be admitted to college in thirty years. As soon as you did, there was a person who was the number one scholar in Kyushu in a century. No. 1 Scholar. I must have a statue of you sculpted here so that people in the future can look at you and look at you every day to inspire willpower. So I made this stone sculpture."
"And this stone sculpture is called 'Epoch-making'. This square is also called Times Square. It means that you have opened up a new era for Hangcheng County."
Zhang Meng said seriously, but Li Zhen's face became increasingly red. Li Zhen felt extremely embarrassed, but the people at the Kyushu Academy of Sciences behind him did not feel that way. They all looked at the stone sculptures curiously and touched them at close range. I deeply appreciate the fact that Hangcheng County built a statue for Li Zhen.
Jia Liping even whispered: "Should our Kyushu Academy of Sciences also make some sculptures for Master Li?"
Liu Jinghong nodded seriously: "I think it's okay."
Li Zhen rolled his eyes. No matter how thick his face was, he did not dare to stay under his statue any longer at this time.
Zhang Meng led Li Zhen toward the city. There was no need for soldiers to maintain order. The common people were very capable and took the initiative to get out of the way. Then keep quiet so that Zhang Meng can explain to Li Zhen the changes in Hangcheng County over the years.
Zhang Meng stopped again, pointed to the underground road and said: "This is the first cement road in Hangcheng County. Let's name it 'Zhuangyuan Road' together."
"The Road to the Number One Scholar?"
Li Zhen was confused.
"Yes, when Mingkang officials came to pick you up, more than a thousand armors paved the way for you. And you also stepped on the carriage to Balong City step by step. So it must be called Zhuangyuan Road."
Li Zhen smiled bitterly. After not returning home for many years, I suddenly felt that the entire Hangcheng County was all about me...
