Hello three astronauts, I am Liu Liangcheng, a reader. Today, I read aloud Mr. Lu Xun's "Hometown" for you.
No matter how far we fly, there is our only home and home on Earth. I send you distant blessings in Xinjiang, and I also hope that when the "Shenzhou" flies through Xinjiang, you will enjoy the vast and picturesque winter scenery covered with snow here, which must be the most beautiful Xinjiang.
Author: Lu Xun
The old house was getting farther away from me, and the landscape of my hometown was gradually moving away from me, but I didn't feel any nostalgia. I only felt that there were invisible walls on all sides of me, which separated me into a lonely body, which made me very depressed; the image of the little hero of the silver collar on the watermelon floor, which I had known very well, was suddenly blurred and made me very sad.
Mother and Hong'er were asleep.

I lay down, listening to the murmur of water at the bottom of the boat, knowing that I was walking my way. I thought: I have been isolated from the earth to this point, but our descendants are still angry, isn't Hong'er missing aquatic life? I hope they are no longer like me, and everyone is separated... However, I don't want them to live like my hard work because they want to be angry, nor do I want them to live like the hard and numbness of the earth, nor do I want them to live like the hardships of others. They deserve a new life, for whom we have not lived before.
I thought: Hope is nothing to have, nothing to have. This is like the way on the earth; in fact, there is no road on the earth, and the more people who walk, the more it becomes the road.

About Hometown
Mr. Lu Xun's novel "Hometown" was written in January 1921 and published in New Youth, Vol. 9, No. 1, and later included in Lu Xun's first collection of novels, "Scream".
"Hometown" reflects Lu Xun's unspeakable pain in life: on the one hand, enlightenment reason prompts him to face up to the ignorance and backwardness of his hometown; on the other hand, being far away from his hometown makes him suffer great pain. "Lost homeland" makes him a wanderer, but nostalgia, as a lingering cultural memory, has become an important participatory force in literary narrative, providing it with emotional comfort, spiritual rest and a fulcrum for thinking.
