The horses galloped and the cats meowed miserably. This scene attracted the attention of many tourists.
Li Du said angrily, "Hurry up, stop screaming! If you scream again, I'll throw you down! "
Ah Meow: Throw, throw, throw!
The quarter horse galloped very steadily, but Li Du was a little nervous. He was giving directions blindly, so the quarter horse was uncomfortable. This made him even more uncomfortable, so he continued to give directions blindly.
Ah Meow was in the worst condition. It was as if he was dancing. His four paws and his long tail had to jump up and down in order to prevent himself from falling.
Crispy Noodles and Ah Ow looked at it sympathetically. D * mn, poor cat, but it jumps well. It didn't fall.
Li Du cursed the tour guide who recommended him to ride. He passed several scenic spots on the way, but he didn't have time to look at them. He was too busy pulling the reins.
The national park had a large number of petrified forests of different densities. According to color and material, these forests had different names, such as Black Forest, Crystal Forest, Rainbow Forest, and so on.
The security guard's motorcycle was an electric one. It was quiet, and he was a nice person. He introduced Li Du and Sophie to the park.
"Most of the trees in this park are conifers similar to Araucaria. They grew about 225 million years ago, during the Triassic period..
"You know about the Triassic period, right? The dinosaurs had just appeared, and the continents of Earth were still clustered together. They were called Pangu..
. "The security guard's voice was loud, but Li Du couldn't hear him clearly. His attention was on the reins. How could he be in the mood to listen?
However, his eyes could see the changes in the surrounding scenery. The park was an eroded landscape composed of red, pink, yellow, blue-gray, purple, brown, and black sand dunes and wastelands.
The sun shone on the ores on the ground, giving off a variety of colors.
In addition to these ores, there were a large number of iconic tree trunks scattered everywhere in this 200-million-year-old desert.
What formed this spectacle was a disaster. At first, a great flood uprooted these trees and washed them down from the surrounding highlands. Then, a volcano erupted, spewing magma and burying these trees in ash.
Later, the flood continued. The water seeped through the wood, carrying away the decaying organic matter and replacing the cells with colorful silica.
In addition to the huge petrified conifer and other plant fossils, there were also some animal fossils, such as giant salamander fossils, phytosaurus fossils, and Bracelosaurus fossils.
The tour guide was right. The best way to enjoy and experience the Petrified Forest National Park was to ride a horse. However, the prerequisite was that one had to know how to ride a horse. For someone like Li Du, it was better to walk.
There were many well-maintained walking paths in the park. They ranged from less than one kilometer to nearly five kilometers in length and were divided into sections with introductions attached. Many tourists walked on them leisurely.
However, when Li Du appeared on horseback, they could no longer be at ease. They hurriedly ran to the side of the road to hide.
Along the way, Li Du did not know how many people rolled their eyes at him.
Their destination was the southern part of the park, where the largest concentration of petrified forest in the world was located.
In addition, around the complete fossilized trunk, there were many broken pieces of fossil wood and ore fragments, shining in the sunlight.
The hunters who had provoked them earlier had already driven over. The security guard behind stopped the car and waved to the two of them, indicating that this was their destination.
Sophie pulled the reins gracefully and used the soles of her feet to tap the horse rhythmically. The quarter horse received the signal and slowed to a stop.
Li Du could only pull on the reins with all his might. The quarter horse felt the pain and reared up. Its hind legs touched the ground and its forelegs kicked against the ground.
Ah Meow quickly ran up the horse's neck and climbed onto its head to avoid the risk of falling.
Li Du did not care about maintaining his image. He hugged the horse's neck tightly with both hands and avoided the risk of falling.
Sophie snickered while Ah Meow roared loudly. The scene was a mess.
In the distance, the hunters who had just gotten out of their cars to work saw the scene and laughed. Someone shouted, "Hey, Mei Niu, you finally got over it and came with us?"
Sophie said angrily, "I hope they get hurt by the stones. I'll give them first aid. I bet after my first aid, they won't dare to insult women for the rest of their lives!"
The security guard was a good person and comforted her, "Don't lower yourself to the level of these idiots. They are brainless b * stards. Sooner or later, they will suffer because of their mouths."
Li Du and Sophie got off the horse, packed up their tools and got ready to work.
The security guard said, "If you guys are tired of working, you can walk north. The northern part of the park is the Painted Desert. There are gorgeous terraces and hills there. There are some very interesting colors and patterns."
Li Du thanked him. At this time, Ah Meow suddenly ran forward after landing. His slender body expanded and contracted vigorously, and his speed became faster and faster, like an arrow released from a bow.
Before anyone could react, Ah Meow disappeared. After a while, he reappeared with a fat marmot in his mouth.
Li Du was shocked and asked, "Is this a protected animal in the park?"
The security guard said, "No, this is a white-tailed prairie marmot. They gnaw on fossils to sharpen their teeth. From this point of view, they are a pest in the park."
Hearing this, Li Du was relieved. If this was a protected animal, then Ah Meow was in trouble.
The security guard told them that the park was very large and the terrain was complex. There were deserts, grasslands, and sandy areas. There were many kinds of birds and animals, such as antelopes, golden eagles, western meadow shrews, azaleas, and white-tailed prairie marmots.
Before leaving, he said, "You better keep an eye on your pet. Try not to let it move alone. There are golden eagles in the sky and jungle wolves on the ground. These are not to be trifled with."
Li Du waved at Ah Meow. Ah Meow, who was playing with the dead rat, wagged his tail and ran back.
A few gem hunters walked over. One of them deliberately took off his shirt to show off his well-defined muscles. He was trying to show off to Li Du and seduce Sophie.
Sophie looked at him a few more times. The man was instantly pleased. He bent his arm to show off his muscles and said, "Hey, pretty lady, what do you think of my muscles?"
"If the body fat percentage is too low, it will easily tear the tendons and destroy the muscle fibers in the future. I had a patient like you before. He was hit by a car and had no fat to protect him. The radius and ulna of his arm were broken into three parts. I cut his brachioradialis to perform the surgery, "Sophie said coldly.
Her tone was cold, and her gaze was even colder. The man who looked at her could not help but shiver. He muttered, "Is this a crazy woman?"
Li Du took out the hammer he had just bought from his bag. He tapped his palm lightly and said, "Everyone, what are you doing in my territory?"
A big man asked, "What are you doing here?"
Li Du said, "I'm here to report to you."
The big man was confused. "What? Why are you reporting to me? "
Li Du said, "You know I don't have to report to you. So why are you asking? Are you looking for trouble? "
