There was nothing to be expected to go forward, so Chen Hao decided to turn back.

When he returned to the edge of the wetland, it was already the evening of the third day.

When he arrived at the old willow tree, he saw that there was no canoe from Ah Yue's uncle and nephew, so he hid far away and waited.

After a while, the two uncles and nephews rowed out of the water.

This time the two went ashore, dragged the canoe up again, and buckled it upside down in the reeds on one side. I also got some broken reed poles and hastily covered them up.

Chen Hao knew that they might be planning to go back.

Sure enough, the next day, the two got up at dawn, ate something indiscriminately, dismantled the tent and put it in a bamboo basket, put it on their backs, and walked to the west. If you go in that direction, the farther away you will get from the wetland.

Chen Hao followed them from a distance, keeping out of the sight of his uncle and nephew, not afraid that they would find out.

Although there is still no obvious road in the place where I passed this time, I could tell that someone had walked around. The terrain along the way is also open and gentle, making it easy to walk.

After walking for a long time, the two stopped to eat again. After resting for a while, he turned around and headed south.

Chen Hao looked in the direction they were heading, and to the south was the mountain range he had explored.

"Do they live in the mountains?"

In this [one] [book] [read] novel ybdu, there is a more obvious path.

The road runs from north to south, and on the south side, the terrain slowly rises as you enter the mountains.

Continuing deeper, Chen Hao discovered that the road was running along the valley between the mountains. The peaks on both sides gradually rose and the trees became very lush.

This kind of environment makes Chen Hao's hiding easier. He only needs to hide in the mountains and forests next to the road to avoid the eyes of passers-by.

It was getting late and the valley was getting narrower. By the end, the two mountains had almost joined together, and only where the road passed, did they create a steep and narrow canyon.

Chen Hao stopped at a place where he could see the canyon from a distance, because he saw that at the entrance of the canyon, artificial structures had appeared.

That's a watchtower!

If you continue to follow, even if Ah Yue's uncle and nephew can't find Chen Hao, if there are people on the sentry tower, they will see him.

Taking advantage of the fact that the sky was not completely dark, Chen Hao turned around and burrowed into the woods next to him.

He climbed the mountain to the top, and by this time it was already completely dark, and he again found a large tree to shelter in.

It's not too far from a place where there are people, so you need to be more careful!

However, Chen Hao found that his aura had unconsciously recovered.

"It seems that the spirit sealing talisman has completely failed. ”

He took out the spirit sealing talisman that had turned into waste paper, and there was no more aura on it. He didn't throw it around, but put the discarded spirit sealing talisman in his storage bag so as not to leave a trace.

Originally, Chen Hao's residual aura was only enough for him to use the "Taiyi Concealment Technique" once, but now that he had recovered somewhat, he felt that he could use it about two or three times.

Chen Hao didn't just throw away the spirit sealing talisman at the beginning, because he didn't know if this kind of naturally restored aura would slowly accumulate the evil of time. Without knowing the outcome, he would not have died himself.

Now that the spirit sealing talisman is useless, he has no choice but to use himself as an experiment.

The next day, Chen Hao was on the mountain peak, exploring in the direction of yesterday's road.

After walking a short distance, I saw that the mountain in front of me had turned into a cliff. If you get closer, you can feel the evil aura that is like substance.

Chen Hao hurriedly stopped, for this unknown thing, it is better not to touch it for the time being.

Just by the fact that it can become the boundary of a world, you know that this must be something with the attribute of a great avenue. This kind of thing, if it can cause harm to people, even if it is a higher cultivation Jindan and Yuanying, I am afraid it will be difficult to bear.

Chen Hao estimated the location of the canyon yesterday again, and began to grope towards the canyon.

When he reached the edge of the canyon, before he got closer, Chen Hao saw a faint gray film of light.

Chen Hao knew that it was the outer membrane of the protective formation, but it could also be a warning formation.

This formation was much more perfect than the simple alert formation of Ah Yue's uncle and nephew, and Chen Hao didn't want to alarm the person who laid out the formation, so he didn't touch this layer of gray film.

Through the light film, you can see the peaks and cliffs on the opposite side. This canyon, at the very top, has also expanded to three or four hundred zhang wide, and it is not the kind of "first-line sky" that goes straight up and down. However, due to the height, the valley walls on both sides are very steep when viewed from below.

Chen Hao believed that on the other side, there must also be this kind of protective or vigilant formation, which made his plan to observe the following from above in vain.

He began to walk back the way he came, preparing to return to the entrance to the canyon, where he waited to see if he could find any more information.

It's really not good, he is also ready to pick up the weak person and directly grab an inquiry. However, this plan may cause unfriendly consequences, and he is not prepared to do it unless it is absolutely necessary.

The aura has recovered a bit, and Chen Hao can now use one or two spirit goose swordsmanship.

He waited patiently at the mouth of the valley for several days, and saw many people coming and going.

But those people were in groups, and there were at least a dozen or so people. And they are all qi practitioners, and their cultivation is not high, from the third or fourth layer to the seventh or eighth layer, among which the number of seven or eight layers of qi training is very small.

These people all came out with weapons, swords, guns, bows and arrows, and when they returned, they all carried the corpses of wild beasts or demon beasts, and it seemed that most of them were going hunting.

Chen Hao selected the smallest team of people and followed them for two days, but unfortunately from their conversations, he didn't get the information he cared about the most.

The only thing that was of some use was that he knew that this canyon was called "Watchman Valley", and the place where these people lived was called "Watchman City", and the city lord was a person named "Han Sui".

Since it's called a "city", it shouldn't be much smaller. It seems that behind the canyon, there is a cave.

And these people really trade salt as currency!

"It seems that they are very short of salt. ”

Chen Hao couldn't help but think, the half catty of salt on his body, in that watchful city, I don't know if he can get a daughter-in-law?

Of course, even if he really could, Chen Hao would not do that.

Five days later, Chen Hao saw Ah Yue's uncle and nephew again.

The two men carried a large bamboo basket on their backs, went out of Shouwang Gorge, and went north along the road, probably to the wetland to collect medicine.

Chen Hao followed them again.

This time, he decided to wait outside and get in touch with the uncle and nephew first.

The two didn't know they were stalking them, so they wouldn't have said something to deceive them. From what they said, Chen Hao felt that this Watchman City should have no hostility towards himself from Taihaotian.
