Li Xiao explained: "This is because the minerals contained in the water and the reflection of the surrounding environment make the lake water show different colors."

Arriving at the fish-viewing platform, the two climbed up to take a panoramic view of the entire Kanas Lake. They also saw the legendary "lake monster"—actually the big red fish unique to Kanas Lake.

"Brother Xiao, is that the legendary lake monster?" Huang Pengfei pointed at a huge black shadow in the lake and said.

Li Xiao smiled and shook his head, "That's actually the big red fish from Kanas Lake, a unique fish here."

In the afternoon, they tasted a meal of authentic Kazakh delicacies at a local Kazakh family, such as finger meat and kumis. Huang Pengfei was full of praise for these delicacies.

"Brother Xiao, this finger meat is really delicious, and the kumiss is also very special." Huang Pengfei said while eating.

Li Xiao nodded, "Yes, the Kazakh food here is very authentic and worth a try."

In the evening, the two of them sat quietly on a viewing platform by Kanas Lake, admiring the scenery of the lake and mountains under the setting sun. The golden sunlight shone on the lake, and the entire Kanas Lake was dyed with a layer of color.

Golden brilliance.

"Brother Xiao, where shall we go tomorrow?" Huang Pengfei asked.

Li Xiao smiled mysteriously, "Tomorrow, we will go to Hulunbuir in Inner Mongolia to experience the grassland scenery there."

Huang Pengfei nodded excitedly, "Hulunbuir, I heard that the grassland there is very vast."

As the night got darker, the two of them ended their day in Kanas and prepared for the next leg of their journey with great anticipation.

Li Xiao and Huang Pengfei arrived in Hulunbuir in the first ray of sunshine in the morning. They stood on the vast grassland and looked around. They saw rippling green waves, herds of cattle and sheep, a blue sky and long white clouds.

"Brother Xiao, the grassland here is so spectacular, I feel my heart is broadened." Huang Pengfei took a deep breath of fresh air, with a happy expression on his face.

Li Xiao nodded, "The Hulunbuir Prairie is the largest grassland in China. The natural scenery and nomadic culture here are very unique."

The two got on horseback and started an adventure on the grassland under the leadership of the herdsmen. The horses' hooves stepped on the soft grass, and they passed through patches of grassland with wild flowers in full bloom. Occasionally, they could see herdsmen in the distance.
