There were no people on the road, but the shops were still open, and the owners were all Indians. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Li Du did not have a good impression of the Indians, not only because Marin and Harris, who ran casinos, had troubled him, but also because he had been blackmailed by Indian students when he first came to school.

However, the Indian bosses here were very enthusiastic, and when they saw them driving over, a woman came out and waved her hand: "You are going wrong, this road is blocked." ”

Hans took off his sunglasses and got out of the car and said, "Yes, ma'am, we didn't get any news. But we met you here, which can only say that God wants us to come here. ”

The woman laughed and said, "Come and have some drinks and rest, actually this road has been closed for days, and there are warnings everywhere, don't you see? Oh, you are tourists?"

"Sort of. Hans said, "What's the matter with this bridge?"

The woman said: "There is a lot of rain in autumn, and the bridge was damaged by the wood that washed in with the river a few days ago, and the government has not repaired it." ”

"Damn the government, this is lazy government! The Democrats are so bad, they shouldn't be in office!" Hans complained casually.

The women complained along with him, and the two found common ground, where they scolded Obama and the Democrats.

In this way, Hans drew closer to her, and the group followed the woman to her shop and asked for a drink and snacks such as small burgers and briocinos.

Li Du asked, "Why are we staying here?"

Hans grinned and said, "Don't worry, just wait and see, there's something we need." ”

Once they got closer, the women asked them where they were going.

"We wanted to go to Old Olebi, but we were actually thrift pickers and wanted to see if there was anything we could do with it," Hans said. ”

The woman laughed, "Oh, I see, but I'm afraid you're going to be disappointed, and they may not want to make a deal with you." ”

Hans pushed Li Du out, "But I guess they should be happy to trade with this guy, right?"

The woman looked at Li Du and smiled: "Maybe, if you have something good, maybe they will be happy to trade with this guy." ”

They chatted casually, and finally prepared to leave, when Hans settled the bill and gave an extra fifty dollars in tips.

In this kind of rural area, a tip of fifty dollars is not a small amount.

After paying the bill, Hans leaned on the counter and said naturally: "Ma'am, I think it will be difficult for us to be received by the honorable Hopi people if we go so directly, is there any way you can help?"

The woman laughed again and said, "You are a clever ghost, young man, you are very clever. ”

She took out two red and green feathers from the counter and handed them to him, saying, "With this in your hand, I think they will be much kinder to you." ”

Hans thanked him with a smile on his face, and when he got into the car, he said, "Okay, this time I will definitely be able to do the business of the Hopi." ”

Li Du asked, "The female boss is from the Hopi tribe?"

"The owners of these shops are. "But we were lucky enough to run into a bridge that was blocked and there were no tourists, they had no business, they were bored and they couldn't make any money." ”

"If it's a normal day, there are guests coming and going, and we just give a tip, we definitely can't get this thing from them. ”

As he spoke, Hans shook the colored feathers in his hand as if to show off.

Li Du knew that this thing should be a token among the Hopi people.

Judging from the reactions of others, Hans did a good job this time, and Ollie and others praised him on the radio for doing a good job.

The bearded Karl asked, "How do you know that she hates the Democratic Party?" Just now you scolded the Democratic Party, and I also pinched a cold sweat for you, if she were the Democratic Party, you would be miserable. ”

Hans said: "It's too simple, the Hopi people hate the Democrats, they hate the Republicans, they even refuse to do business with all white people, do you think they'll join the Democrats?"

"Then why don't you scold the Republicans?"

Hans said angrily, "You pig brains?"

Ollie was unhappy and said, "Why are you still scolding?"

Li Du said with a smile: "Haha, the Republican Party has not provoked the Hopi people, why should they scold them? The Democratic Party is different, they are in power, and the bridge is broken, and the government has not repaired it for a long time, which has affected their business, so they will naturally hate the Democratic Party." ”

Hans nodded and snorted, "I'm glad I'm partnered with a smart guy, and if I partner with these pigs who don't have brains but only fat, I think I'll break down." ”

The bridge was blocked, but they could take a detour through it, so their itinerary changed, and the first attraction was no longer Lake Powell, but Horseshoe Bend.

Rounding a hill, they were not far from Horseshoe Bend, which Hans said was less than forty kilometers.

Li Du felt that it didn't matter if there was no Horseshoe Bend, and the mountain road on the change seemed to belong to the western route, with steep road conditions and magnificent scenery.

Several sections of the road are lined with knife-like canyon cliffs, straight up and down, extremely dangerous.

Walking on such a road is naturally not fast, Li Du understood the reason why Hans chose the eastern front, under the cliff is the turbulent Colorado River, and if a car accidentally overturns, it will be dead and dead.

Walking slowly, they finally arrived at Horseshoe Bend by noon.

This is a U-shaped section of the Colorado River in Arizona, and it is also a small section of the Grand Canyon, which is called "Horseshoe Bend" because of the huge rocks surrounding the river bay that resemble horseshoe shapes.

When they arrived, there were quite a few tourists taking pictures.

Li Du saw that there was a small post office here, so he ran over to take a look.

He was lucky that there was a postcard of Horseshoe Bend in the post office.

So he bought four postcards made of photos of Horseshoe Bend in different seasons of spring, summer, autumn and winter, wrote something in Chinese on them, and wrote Sophie's address and mailed it to her.

After sending the postcard into the mailbox, he was about to leave, but after thinking about it, he went back and wrote a new copy to Luo Skirt, which can be regarded as a souvenir.

Some postcards had local thumbnail maps, Li Du looked at them, and said in amazement: "Boss Fu, isn't it far from Page here?"

Hans sneered, "yes, haha, according to my plan, we should take this road on the way back, and then go back to town after seeing Horseshoe Bend." ”

Fries nodded, "The plan is correct, then we should come back in the evening, and watching the sunset in Horseshoe Bend is simply beautiful." ”

In this way, Li Du could only sigh: "Okay, even if we don't have that fate, but it's good to see Horseshoe Bend in the morning." ”

In the morning, the sun shines brightly on the surface of the Colorado River, which flows through the valley, and the water shines like a long crystal.

Li Du deliberately found a place with a panoramic view of the fjord and asked Hans to take a few pictures of him.

After all, we've been here before, we've seen it too, haven't we?
