Chapter 452

After the girls were rejected, they never came up for a drink.

On the contrary, many men came to toast, and their attitudes were very respectful. Li Du and others were too embarrassed to refuse, so they drank bowl after bowl.

As a result, more and more people came to toast, especially on Li Du's side. He looked at the long line behind and saw sweat on his forehead, and he didn't understand what was going on, so he called for help.

It happened that the tribe's secretary, Martha Li, was nearby, so he asked, "Hey, ma'am, can you tell me why everyone came to us to toast?"

Martha Li giggled and said: "There are two reasons, one is that our Hopi people are very enthusiastic, and the other is that I have shown them the confrontation between you and the Navajo people, and they feel sincere admiration for you and came to toast. "

Since people said so, it was difficult for Li Du to refuse.

The men who came to him to toast were arranged in units of ten, forming a long line.

There were far fewer people on Hans' side. Seeing Li Duqiang's smiling face, he immediately gloated: "Ha, buddy, you are like an oiran in a gold mine in Texas in the 19th century. Everyone is waiting in line for you !"

Li Du glared at him, and said with a sinister smile, "Very well, you have offended me, and I want to take revenge on you."

Hans was afraid of his little thoughts, so he hurriedly said, "I'm just joking..."

Before he could finish speaking, Li Du had already opened his mouth. He dragged Hans over and said, "Dear warriors, I am not the only one fighting against the Navajos, but also this brother! "

"No, no, no, I'm not." Hans waved his hand like a cramp.

One asked: "How come we don't see him in the video?"

Hans nodded again and again: "Yes, yes, you are right, Warrior."

Li Du has already prepared the answer: "Although he is not in the camera, half of him is definitely on the military medal! Who do you think took the video? Yes, it is my brother!"

"When he first took the video, the Navajo threatened him, insulted him, beat him, and did not allow him to take the video. But he was not afraid of threats and insisted on recording the truth!"

What he said was extremely emotional, and Hans was dumbfounded when he heard it.

Turis patted him on the shoulder and said, "Well done, Boss Fu, I didn't know you were still so brave."

The other Indians looked at him with admiration, and then the long line in front of Li Du divided into two lines, and one line went straight to Hans.

Hans raised his wine bowl in despair: "Drink, drink to death!"

Li Du released little flying insects, consumed energy while drinking, and converted alcohol into energy to make up for it, so that he could drink a thousand glasses without getting drunk.

The Indians admired those who could drink, and he managed to win their admiration with such a gesture of drinking from a glass, and there was continuous cheers and applause.

Throughout Kavalala's night, he was like a groom at a wedding, accepting various toasts, drinking alcohol, and then going to the toilet to drain water.

After staying up until the early hours of the morning, the party finally came to an end.

Li Du was finally free, his stomach was full of wine, but he didn't eat any food, so it felt particularly contradictory: feeling uncomfortable and hungry.

He took a roast leg of lamb from the fire, cut a piece of meat and wiped the salt brick vigorously on it. After tasting the taste, the saltiness was just right, so he began to eat happily.

Godzilla is still eating and drinking. Instead of rubbing the meat with a salt brick, he scrapes the salt brick with a knife to scrape the salt from it, which makes it more enjoyable to eat.

A group of people slept in the thatched hut until the morning. The green wine of the Hopi tribe was not high, but they drank too much, and it was inevitable that they would still get drunk.

After returning the feathers and packing up the traded goods, the convoy slowly left the Hopi reservation.

The treasure hunters gained a lot from this Hopi trip. In addition to hunting knives, they also traded various handicrafts, which are very popular in the outside world.

The last attraction on the return trip is Lake Powell.

Lake Powell is actually a reservoir, meandering between Arizona and Utah in the United States. Because of its unique history and environment, it has become a famous tourist attraction in the southwestern United States.

The lake is young, and although construction began in 1956 with the construction of the Glen Canyon Dam, it wasn't until 1980 when water from the Colorado, San Juan, and Escalante rivers was brought in. Really finished.

Once on the road, they drove along the road not far from the San Juan River, and then they saw Lake Powell.

The lake covers an area of ​​65,000 hectares, is 170 meters deep, 300 kilometers long, and has a coastline of 3,500 kilometers.

When approaching the lake, Li Du saw many Indians on the road, and there was a checkpoint on one of the road sections.

Based on the dress and clothing of these people, he could tell at a glance that they were Navajos, so he asked, "What are they going to do? Set up card charges? The government doesn't care?"

In fact, this is not the case. The Navajos are not completely unreasonable domineering people. They set up clips to force the car to slow down, and they sent things into the car.

Hans knew what was going on, explaining, "They're protesting to take back land titles around Lake Powell."

When the truck stopped, an Indian girl came up with a smile and handed them a few leaflets with a small gift attached, which was very humane.

The leaflet introduces the history of the repair of Lake Powell, which is almost the modern history of this area, and also the history of the bullying of them by the US government.

This piece of land originally belonged to the Navajo people. Later, to build lakes and dams, the government exchanged a piece of land in southern Utah with them.

The Navajos were very resistant to this, because the surrounding land was very fertile, while the land in southern Utah was so poor that it could not be cultivated at all.

But at that time, Uncle Sam was very domineering. They had a conscience not to slaughter all the Navajos. It is not that they have never done this in history.

Now, as the number of Indians increases and their social status increases, they begin to bring up this history again, wanting to get back their land rights.

It's not impossible, and the U.S. Congress has already started discussing this issue. Of course, they are discussing whether to tear down these dams and open Lake Powell.

If Lake Powell is abandoned, there is no need for the government to take the land, and the Navajo will be able to regain its use.

It is also because of hope that the Navajos did not take radical measures in this matter, but wanted to put pressure on the government through propaganda.

Leaving Kazi, Lake Powell came into view.

This lake is magnificent, surrounded by crimson red rocks and red land, surrounded by a large area of ​​green, the color is very rich!
