Passing through the narrow road in front of the Watch Valley, Chen Hao's eyes suddenly opened up!

In front of you is a valley surrounded by mountains, with a radius of hundreds of miles. In the middle of the valley is a large plain, and there are villages scattered on the plains, which are full of greenery. In the middle of the plain, there are large areas of dense buildings.

"That's the City of Watch. Shi San pointed to the densest complex of buildings in the middle of the plain and said to Chen Hao.

This is the inner entrance to the canyon, which is about ten feet wide. On either side of the canyon, a huge steel statue stood.

The two steel statues are deep in color, with the solidity and heaviness of dark metal. It is five feet high, the height of a five-story building.

Their bodies, each of which has distinct joints, do not appear to be made of a single piece of iron. If it's for the details, it's not pretty.

The statue holds a large spear in both hands, the tip of which is three feet in diameter, and the outside is carved with a circle of threads, which resembles a huge drill bit.

Chen Hao guessed that this thing was probably not a statue, but probably some kind of puppet.

He looked at the iron statue a few more times, and one of the sentries beside him urged dissatisfiedly: "Don't look at it, there will be time to see it in the future, let's leave quickly." ”

Chen Hao and Shi San's uncle and nephew collected medicine for three days, and it was not until most of their bamboo baskets were filled that Shi San took Chen Hao to Shouwang City to go back.

There were more than a dozen sentries stationed on the sentry tower at the entrance of the canyon, and they stopped Shi Sanyi and his party. After learning that Chen Hao was a visitor from Tai Haotian, the sentries cautiously sent an escort to meet the city lord.

It is said to be an escort, but it actually means surveillance.

Even Shi San didn't trust Chen Hao very much at first, let alone these sentinels who were specifically responsible for guarding.

After all, in the White Horse Cave, especially in Overwatch City, there has been no one who has seen Taihaotian for more than a hundred years. Now one has popped up out of nowhere, and who knows if it's true or not?

A group of four people walked along the avenue in the valley towards Overwatch City.

After passing through several villages, Chen Hao saw farmers working in the fields, no different from outside. Rice and wheat are also grown in the fields, and in the vicinity of the villages, there are still large vegetable fields.

Seeing the topography of the Watch Valley, Chen Hao suddenly realized. When the boundary of the White Horse Cave arrived, a bag suddenly popped out, creating a watch valley with only a narrow passage to the outside world.

Because the only canyon leading to Overwatch Valley is too narrow and impassable from other places, it has formed a terrain that is easy to defend and difficult to attack.

It was precisely because of this that it was able to exist independently and not be annexed by the Cao family in Plains City.

However, the area of this valley is not very large, which leads to the people in the Watch Valley who can only stay here, and there is no way to go out and fight with the Cao family.

Chen Hao now knew from Ah Yue and Shi San's words that the Watch Valley should belong to Tai Haotian's friendly camp. The people in it are all looking forward to reopening the "Heavenly Array".

And the Cao family is the hostile camp of Taihaotian. It can be seen from their behavior in fighting the joint action team that they do not welcome Tai Haotian's people to rule Baekko-dong again, but want to be emperor themselves behind closed doors.

As for how this strange situation came about, Chen Hao didn't have the slightest clue.

The power of the Watch Valley is obviously much weaker than the Plains City where the Cao family is located. If it weren't for the geographical advantage, he might have become a member of the Cao family a long time ago.

If you want to rely on them to destroy or harvest the Chongyang fruit of Qingqiuyuan, it is really a bit unreliable!

Chen Hao was helpless about this, so he could only take one step at a time.

Dozens of miles away, everyone walked for more than an hour. It wasn't until it was dark that the four of them arrived at Overwatch.

Overwatch City has no walls and is an open city.

After nightfall, on the street there is a high pole that stands more than a dozen feet apart, and the animal oil street lamp is lit. As for the alleys, except for the light that shines through the houses on both sides, they can be regarded as black lights.

From the scale of the city seen from a distance, Chen Hao estimated that there were only about twenty or thirty thousand people in this city of watch. Outside, it's a small town. But in the small white horse cave, it may be considered a first-class big city.

The four of them walked along the lighted avenue, and when they reached a cross street, Shi San stopped and said, "We won't go to the City Lord's Mansion, right?"

"No, you have to go at least alone, City Lord Han will definitely ask about your encounter with him. "The sentinel is more mature, and can take these things into account, so he objected.

Shi San took down the bamboo basket and handed it to Ah Yue and said, "Ah Yue, you work hard, take this thing home first, and I'll be back later." ”

Ah Yue nodded, took the bamboo basket and turned to an alley. There was a low, dilapidated dwelling that housed the poor of the watchman.

On the other side, the lights are bright, and the street is full of restaurants and brothels.

At this time, it is the time when business is lively, every family is full of friends, the wine and food are fragrant, the sound of guessing the boxing order, the sound of orchestral silk bamboo and singing is noisy, full of worldly prosperity and liveliness.

The sentry took Chen Hao and Shi San and passed through this lively street and kept moving forward. When the singing and laughter gradually became inaudible, a tall mansion stood at the end of the street.

At this time, the door of the government was open, and there were eight lanterns by the door, which was bright. On either side of the gate, there were two people standing, both dressed in short blue clothes and small hats, looking like errand soldiers.

The sentry stepped forward and handed over a wooden waist card, and said to the messenger in front: "This poor master, the lowly position is the commander of the canyon outpost, and these two people have something important to ask to see the Han City Lord, and they are annoyed to report each other." ”

The messenger checked the waist card, arranged for a person to enter the door to report, and then said to the sentry, "Wait here." ”

The three of them stood outside the door and waited.

Small places are so cumbersome, it seems that this Han City Lord is not small.

When Chen Hao saw the behavior of these errand soldiers, he was a little worried in his heart. If Tai Haotian re-manages here, I'm afraid that the status of that Han City Lord will not be as transcendent as it is now. If he cares about these things, it will be difficult to cooperate with Chen Hao sincerely.

"The lord of the city promised to see you, so you can follow me. After the messenger who entered the door came out, he said to Chen Hao and the others.

When I entered the gate, there was a tall hall in front of me, which seemed to be the official hall of the city lord to deal with official business.

The messenger led them to the left, and after passing a courtyard gate, there were many houses with carved beams and painted buildings, rockery ponds in the courtyard, flowers and trees, and lanterns were hung along the way, illuminating the courtyard as if it were day.
