How could he see that China was powerful? The simplest proof was that the current Stellar Union visas were all valid for a decade. Possessing a Star-Spangled Country visa, one could go in and out of the Stellar Union at will for at most half a year at a time. This was something unimaginable earlier on. At that time, he would have to sign it every time he went there, and it would be extremely troublesome.

When Xiao Peng appeared at San Francisco International Airport, even the people who were the most familiar with him wouldn't be able to recognize him at a glance.

The current him was wearing hiking shoes, big sunglasses, and a big backpack. He looked just like a living donkey friend. Xiao Peng watched Star rank movies all day. He took a ride and dared to go on a trip, so he wanted to give it a try himself.

The reason why he chose to leave San Francisco was very simple. Xiao Peng wanted to walk along Star Stripe Country's Highway 1.

Stars and Stripes Highway 1 is one of the most important attractions in the life of the National Geographic Magazine. It is also one of the most popular self-driving routes in North America.

It was different from the "Star Stripe Nation road" that he remembered. Route 1 was sunny all the way to the sea, along the way, there were all kinds of romantic towns and national parks, making it not as monotonous as looking at the sea. Some people say that this road exists to make people understand that sometimes the destination is not so important, the scenery along the way will make you lost.

If you're driving on Highway 1, you have to travel from north to south, which is from San Francisco to Los Angeles. Xiao Peng only had a thousand dollars in cash in his pocket. Although he had his Express card with him, Xiao Peng was also very proud and insisted on taking a ride on his own. After getting a Verizon mobile phone card, Xiao Peng set off on his way.

And the reason he had his mobile phone card was because it was currently the best card in the entire country of Stars and Stripes. Xiao Peng was counting on it to look up Google Maps and find the best hitchhiking spot.

The good thing about it was that some things in the Stars and Stripes were not a lie. For example, a free ride. It wasn't common to hitchhike in the country, but it seemed to be a kind of culture in the country. Xiao Peng stood by the side of the road and caught a taxi, allowing him to hitch a ride in one.

It's a Ford F150 that's very common in Stars and Strikes, where people have a unique love for pickup trucks. The Ford F series, Chevy Pika, and Dodge's RAM Pika occupy the top three spots on the sales list all year round, thanks to their culture, they like to do everything by themselves, whether it's building houses or working in the countryside, they have to do it themselves. In addition to their love of outdoor sports, pulling fast boats and so on, pickup trucks can pull goods and carry people. This was the complete opposite of home. There were many urban roads in China that didn't allow pickup trucks to pass through. In some areas, there were even limits on the load tonnage. So even if the F150 was sold to China, the back of the car would be covered with a lid and not a pickup truck. Otherwise, the car would have to have a reflective tape on its rear end to get on the road.

The two young men who gave Xiao Peng a ride were both surfers, the one with golden hair was called Candy, the one with short brown hair was called Jenne. The two of them had the same red skin color, it was obvious that they were often exposed to the sun, and when white people were exposed to it, their skin color would turn red. The back of their car was loaded with surfboards and the like.

Even so, he enthusiastically gave Xiao Peng a ride. Their destination, however, was not far away. They were surfing on the State Beach in Half Moon Bay, near San Francisco.

Candy was a chatterbox, especially when Xiao Peng took off his hat and sunglasses. After hearing that Xiao Peng was Chinese, Candy became even more talkative, "Wow, Xiao, you're the most energetic Chinese I've ever seen in my life, did you escape?"

"What?" Xiao Peng's eyes widened as he looked puzzledly at Candy.

So on the way, Xiao Peng explained to Kandi that China was not a fascist dictatorship, and that not all Chinese worked in sweatshops. The history of Tibet and Tibet had always been an integral part of China, and not just because they believed that China was close to Tibet and actively bullied it.

As for the issue of the Chinese stealing employment from the people of the Stellar Strikes in some way, Xiao Peng didn't refute it. The lazy boss of the country of Mi isn't willing to hire you guys, are you blaming us?

In short, Xiao Peng found out that many of the people in Star Stripes really didn't care about other countries. Candy's questions made Xiao Peng at a loss of whether to laugh or to cry.

For example, Candy asked him, "Do you guys have any TV shows similar to The Stars and Stripes' Idol?" Xiao Peng replied honestly, "Of course, we do." Candy: "That's the only place you guys can vote, right?" Xiao Peng: "! "What?!" "Huh?!?" %

Xiao Peng didn't go to Half Moon Bay's State Beach with Candy and the others, but to the Dove Horn lighthouse not far away from him. When they got out of the car, Xiao Peng took a photo of the two, he wanted to record what he saw and heard along the way as a memory.

After parting company with the two, Xiao Peng went to the Dove's Corner Lighthouse.

Dove Point is the tallest lighthouse on the Pacific coast of the Stellar States and is still in use. A white lighthouse and a small white wooden house were standing alone in the corner of the sea.

The Dove's Corner Lighthouse was an ancient lighthouse.

It was established in 1872. It is also indicated by the use of ancient kerosene lamps and lens luminescence methods. The light on the lighthouse has a total of 984 lenses, 24 ox lenses, a total weight of 4 tons! And all the lenses were made in Paris, France. When used, a white light flashes every 10 seconds for 24 miles! At first the light source was made of animal oil, then kerosene, then electricity, and now it was an automatic beacon. But for more than a hundred years, no matter how advanced technology was, this beacon had been in use.

Unfortunately, when Xiao Peng arrived, this place was naturally damaged and had already been closed to the public. So it turned out that this place was a free place to visit.

After Xiao Peng left behind a lot of photos, he didn't take a taxi and continue on the road. Instead, he continued along the coastline toward Half Moon Bay. There was a bay between them, through which he could see directly to the other side of Half Moon Bay.

Although it looked like they were close and they didn't walk very close, this trip was nearly five kilometers, but Xiao Peng wasn't in a hurry. He carried his backpack as he strolled, and soon arrived at Half Moon Bay State Beach.

The coastline here was really beautiful, but what was different from the coastline on the Zither Island where Xiao Peng's family resided was that it was windy and rough here. After all, unlike China, the State of Stars and Strikes didn't have a continental shelf like the Yellow Sea which could cushion the wind and waves, but the wind and waves in the Pacific Ocean could directly blow on one's face. It was for this reason that there were scattered small towns along the California coast that were especially suited to surfing — the waves were indeed very strong.

When Xiao Peng arrived, he saw a group of people looking anxiously at the coastline. There were both men and women. Xiao Peng looked and saw that Jenne was also standing there. However, her expression was even more anxious. Xiao Peng followed their gazes and saw nothing special. There were people surfing in the distant ocean.

"What are you looking at, Jenne?" Xiao Peng walked over and asked.

Jenne saw that it was Xiao Peng, "Oh, Xiao, damn it! Candy is competing in surfing right now! "

Xiao Peng shrugged his shoulders, "Then let's compete. Why are you being so nervous? Look at your nervous face change. Didn't you all say that you were experts at surfing? What was there to be afraid of? I thought all the Star-Spangled People liked to compete. " He was still unhappy about the dispute over China with Candy and the others on the road.

"Let's compete through dog shit!" Jenne was anxious. "This is a surfing duel! God, that stupid Candy. "

Xiao Peng was stunned. "Surfing duel?" What did that mean? What exactly happened here? "

Jenne was probably nervous too and explained to Xiao Peng, "Candy and 'Dog Tail' Simpson are quarrelling. The two of them used their surfboards to make the bet and charged into the same giant wave at the same time. This place is very dangerous. The three basic safety rules of surfing were: First, do not face the direction of the incoming wave with the surfboard at all times. Second, do not be in the perilous zone, which is also the range of the white wave. "But look at Candy, she's currently in the tides, and she's so close to Simpson, this is way too damn dangerous."

Jenne was really nervous, he had not talked much along the way, but now he kept on talking, as if he could calm himself down: "Xiao, you Chinese people don't know much about surfing, just like the wave they are trying to conquer. If you fail, the consequences will be dire. Falling from a wave is like falling from a three-storey building, and then you feel yourself swallowed up by a waterfall. It's like walking through a torrential waterfall, and if you fall into a deep sea like this, the most dangerous part is that your hands and feet are bound, and your whole body is like a puppet being pulled by a surfboard. After all, all surfers wear a leg rope and link their wrists to the surfboard, so that you can use the buoyancy of the surfboard to save your life, but at the same time it also brings danger. When you're being pulled around the bottom of the sea, your body can go through a lot of crazy twists and turns: the surfboard can hit you! Belt may be damaged! It could even wrap around a person's feet! The end result is likely to be a dive into deeper waters. Many surfers would be injured or even lose their lives because of this! "

Damn it, who said that Chinese people don't understand surfing? Do you believe me when I beat you guys up?

However, seeing how nervous Jenne was, Xiao Peng comforted her: "Jenne, don't worry. Isn't Candy an expert surfer? He must be confident when he challenges such a big wave. "

"Nonsense, my Chinese brothers!" I've known him for so many years, and I don't know his level anymore. He had never rushed through such a high wave before, he was simply courting death. He was confident? He has a damned confidence! " Jenne cursed.

When Jenne heard this question, his face was full of pride, "This is a fashionable extreme sport. It seeks to stimulate people's heart with life and death. This is not something that you conservative Chinese people can understand. Oh, Shet! "

As Jenne and Xiao Peng chatted, they didn't forget to keep their eyes on the shore. Before Jenne could finish his words, Candy had already been swallowed by the wave. Chapter error, point this report (registered free)
