Chapter 439: 438. The Inexplicable Siege
There is only one observation point in Horseshoe Bay, but in terms of the shock of this point, it is difficult to find a second one in the world!
Because it is close to the Utah Plateau, the surrounding soil also contains a lot of iron and manganese elements, so when the sun is strong, the land here will shine a beautiful metallic red.
Looking down from the viewing point, the Colorado River that cuts out this bay is green, like an emerald belt, so the red land and the green river complement each other, which is very pleasing to the eye from the color point of view.
Also, this bay is very round and beautiful in terms of shape. This bay is very deep and big, full of momentum. Li Du stood at the observation point and looked down, feeling a sense of pride in his heart.
He turned his head and saw Da Ao standing in the distance, he beckoned and said, "Come on, it's so cool to come here to see."
Da Ao shook his head with a dry smile: "No, I won't go there, because I've seen it many times and I don't want to see it again."
"It's because you have a fear of heights, so you don't dare to go and see it?" Ollie laughed loudly.
Da Ao laughed and said: "No, well, there is one thing, damn it, I can't tell you about it, maybe I do have a fear of heights."
Seeing his embarrassed face, Li Du couldn't help laughing.
The surrounding tourists stayed away from them in fear. From the tourists' point of view, Da Ao's expression was extremely ferocious at this time, and they were afraid that they would be kicked down by him if they got close.
Leaving Horseshoe Bend, the next step is Antelope Canyon.
Antelope Canyon is one of the famous slot canyons in the world, and it is also a famous photography spot. It is divided into two independent parts in terrain, called Upper Antelope Canyon and Lower Antelope Canyon.
They were driving, but couldn't enter the canyon, because the exit of the canyon was only as wide as one person, and it was usually used for mountain torrents to gushe out from here, so it was impossible for cars to drive in.
Driving the car, Hans asked, "Do you want to go down and have a look?"
Li Du looked at the sky and said, "Forget it, we still have to go to Lake Powell and the Hopi village. If we continue to linger here, we won't have enough time."
Da Ao said: "Boss, I suggest you go down and have a look, it's beautiful here, really beautiful."
Hans also said: "Yes, let's go down and have a look, especially at noon soon, the canyon's light is ever-changing, but only for a short period of time at noon can the sun shine through a few gaps to the bottom of the valley."
Li Du had heard of Antelope Canyon. When he came to Pheasant School, some students from the school organized tours for them, including the visit to Antelope Canyon.
This canyon is the most beautiful canyon in North America. It is deep and not long, but it goes deep underground along the mountain, which is extremely mysterious and sharp.
Like the soil around Horseshoe Bend, the land in Antelope Canyon is also red, but it is not because it is rich in iron and manganese, but because it is all red sandstone, which is naturally red.
Because of frequent flash floods, the rocks in the valley were washed by flash floods like a dream world, known as the underground paradise, but this paradise is not the territory of God, but the territory of the Indians.
To enter Antelope Canyon, you need to hire an Indian tour guide, which is a must and stipulated by the National Tourism Administration.
It's not that the local Indians are domineering, and it's not only for the needs of natural and human protection, but for the personal safety of tourists.
Because of the special terrain of the canyon, once there is rainfall, the surrounding rainwater will wash into the canyon, so that the narrow paradise may instantly become a hell with rushing torrents and no possibility of escape!
Because you have to pay the entrance fee and invite a tour guide, other treasure pickers didn't go. They either went there before or were not interested, and they were unwilling to spend this wrong money.
Li Du took Godzilla into the canyon. They went to the Upper Antelope Canyon. The Lower Antelope Canyon is not open. It will not be open for nine months of the year. It is not easy to wait for it to open.
But even if the Lower Antelope Canyon is open, ordinary tourists rarely go in.
Because this canyon is located underground, you need to climb metal stairs to go deep into the ground, and you may need to rely on some ropes to walk through it in the middle. It is very dangerous, and even Indians who want to make money do not encourage tourists to enter.
Restricted by the terrain, Li Du and the others parked their car two kilometers away from the entrance of the canyon, and then walked there.
The passage is a sandy road, which is very delicate and soft and comfortable to step on, but Li Du feels a little uneasy. This kind of sandy road is easily reminiscent of quicksand.
Entering the entrance of the canyon, paying for tickets, hiring a guide, and then the two were assigned to a large four-wheel drive vehicle.
"Everyone in the future has to take this car. You are not allowed to go down or walk." The Indian tour guide said seriously.
Li Du was taken aback, and asked, "You can't even walk?"
The tour guide explained: "In some places, the temperature is high, and the sun shines on the red rocks, and finally reflects to several points. If you walk over it accidentally, you will be burned."
Li Du suddenly realized that if this is the case, then stop showing your personality and just stay in the car honestly.
When a car of tourists arrived, the tour guide clapped his hands and said, "Everyone, keep your belongings safe and pack them well, otherwise the car will fall while driving, and we won't have a chance to pick it up."
The tourists began to check their belongings. Li Du remembered that there were two feathers symbolizing the friendship of the Hopi people in his pocket, so he took them out and prepared to put them in his trouser pockets for safekeeping.
As soon as he took out the feather, the Indian guide suddenly pointed at him and screamed, and yelled at him in the tribal language with a vicious expression on his face.
Li Du didn't understand what he meant, and thought that the other party questioned the way he obtained the two feathers, so he explained: "We got this through friendship..."
Hearing this, the Indian tour guide's expression became more fierce. He shouted, and several Indians who maintained law and order also rushed over, with the same fierce expression.
The tourists in the car were terrified. They didn't know what was going on, so they couldn't help but shouted:
"What is this? What happened? What are they trying to do?"
"What are these Indians shouting? Are they trying to kidnap us?"
"Call the police! Suyun is behind me, I will protect you!"
Seeing the malicious intentions of these Indians, Godzilla stood up and clenched his fists, and also became fierce and angry.
Li Du was also very angry. These people came after him, but he didn't do anything. What do they mean? Want to bully the yellow race again?
I don't know whether it was Godzilla's size that intimidated these Indians or they wanted peace in business. Although they had grim expressions, they didn't do anything to them, but surrounded the two of them.
At this moment, the tour guide took out the walkie-talkie and shouted in the tribal language. Li Du didn't know what was going on, so he also took out his mobile phone to call Hans and said, "I don't know why, these Indians suddenly want to attack us."
Hans was stunned for a moment, and then shouted: "Don't do anything, take it easy, I know what's going on, I'm here!"
