New Year's Day of the twenty-first year of Zhu Long.

Chen Fei took a letter of appointment and set off to Hutou Pass, one of the three major passes in the Tang Dynasty.

The winding road extends little by little into the mountains, the more forward, the steeper and narrower the mountain road becomes, fortunately, this road is considered the Tang artery, it is a road that the Tang Engineer Department - the Tulong Department focuses on, although it is a little bumpy, but the road condition is good.

Everyone is sitting in a carriage, the Tang country's specialty jujube horse, this is a kind of heavy horse, nearly two meters high, usually weighs up to one ton, the speed is slow, but the strength is large, calm, mostly used for the transportation of military rations. Although he wanted to share a car with Lin Xi, Chen Fei knew what kind of mood Lin Xi would feel when he saw him now, so he sat in a car with a few maidservants-the fat man rode a blood lion, and his original words were "Lao Tzu is going to guard one side, but you can't ride in the car like a girl."

And the red ghost is still running with the convoy all over the mountain, Chen Fei also saw a little doorway, the red ghost is a monkey on the tree, a wolf on the ground, and a gecko on the cliff, although he has never seen it, but Chen Fei can be sure that the red ghost is also a good hand in the water, and he is even wondering if this thing will fly......

And at this moment, Chen Fei was distracted, he was thinking about the conversation with the old ghost. Somehow, Chen Fei always felt that this was the last meeting with the old ghost, and the idea of "recognizing Chen Fei as the master" was successful, but the destruction of the old ghost's consciousness was great, and he was afraid that he would not be able to survive the past three years. Chen Fei naturally got all the things of the old ghost, including the Daozang of the Dream Weaving Gate, what made Chen Fei uneasy so far was the side effect of the dream weaving that the old ghost talked to Chen Fei for the first time:

"Step through this door, and the rest of your life will be difficult. When you are in full control of the dream, the dream will not appear on its own, and the dream is extremely important for a person, dealing with some unimportant content, memories, these things are like a piece of garbage, usually there are dreams for you to deal with, and without dreams, the rest of your life is like a house with more and more garbage, and one day, you will have so much garbage in this room that you can't even plug in. At that time, you will have hallucinations, even delusions, delusions, irritability......"

The old ghost's final advice to Chen Fei was: Use less dream weaving.

Chen Fei has already discovered that he can't dream, dreams are probably a random and messy thing, and since Chen Fei mastered the dream, the dream seems to have been governed and planned in an orderly manner, and now Chen Fei can easily direct a completely customized dream, but the dream has never appeared by itself.

In the dream theory, the most important "information processing theory" and "physiological function theory" both agree on the importance of dreams to people, in these two theories, dreams are like a doctor, helping people deal with superfluous and harmful memories after falling asleep, but now, Chen Fei has lost this ability.

Chen Fei sighed, there are gains and losses, the world has always been like this, the ability to weave dreams is too terrifying, this may be some kind of balance in the underworld.

The carriage was moving around, and there was a team of lightly armored cavalry in front and behind the carriage, with a total number of one hundred, although Chen Fei did not understand military affairs, but the solemn aura on these two teams of cavalry was extremely obvious, and it was certain that these hundred soldiers were all elite soldiers in a hundred battles.

The carriage drove slowly into the mountains, and the big carriage seemed to be insignificant to the jujube horses, and the speed was constant all the time, without the slightest slowing down because of the climb.

Lifting the curtain to take a special look at the red ghost, it was crisscrossing the top of the tree on the mountain, and when it was in mid-air, it could still be faintly seen, and as soon as it landed on the top of the tree, the fine scale armor on its body immediately changed color and merged with the surroundings.

"A magical beast with the strength of a lion and a tiger, a chameleon with ever-changing colors, and an agile long-tailed monkey." Chen Fei muttered, and suddenly felt the red ghost's message: "Danger." ”

"Fatty." Chen Fei frowned slightly, shouted, and the fat man who was riding the blood lion slowed down, and the carriage quickly caught up with him.

"The red ghost says it's dangerous." Chen Fei whispered, all the soldiers in the red ghost news team knew, but they didn't know what this red ghost was.

"Don't worry, there's a scout ahead." The fat man said, but he still rushed to the front of the team, stretched out his palms into the air and clenched them into fists, and the soldiers immediately took the order and stopped.

Suddenly, there was a sound of horses' hooves, and a light horse galloped and stopped in front of the fat man: "Golden fox!" ”

"Golden Fox?" The fat man frowned, "Why did this beast run to the territory?" After a pause: "What is it doing now?" ”

"In a canyon waterfall nine miles ahead, it seems to be injured, that waterfall is only a hundred meters away from the road, Jin Xiao Fox has a strong sense of territory, I am afraid that if I pass by, I will ...... from now on."

"Set up camp!" The fat man immediately made a decision, and the people did not need to be commanded, but immediately stopped, and set up tents for tents, digging stoves for digging stoves, and making fires for fires.

And the fat man came to Chen Fei's carriage, "There is a golden fox." Knowing that Chen Fei didn't understand, he immediately explained: "The strength of this beast is about the peak of the third level, and it is usually outside the gate, I don't know how to enter the realm, although I was injured, but if we fight hard, we don't bring large weapons, and we will lose some people, just wait, it's already dusk, just spend the night here, if it doesn't leave tomorrow morning." ”

Chen Fei nodded immediately, from the civilized society to this wild world-like place, he couldn't see the dead, the time he spent in Sifu Mountain he knew the power of the demonic beast, in his opinion, it was naturally best to die a few people in one night.

"Who's stalking that beast now?" The fat man turned back to the scout.

Chen Fei's heart moved, and he got out of the carriage, "Tracking? ”

"Well, this kind of thing will kill it if it enters the realm." The fat man said.

Chen Fei nodded, if the demonic beast entered the human settlement, it would indeed cause a large number of casualties, which means that someone would have been following the demonic beast since it was discovered.

The sunset slowly sank, the scenery was just right, at this moment Chen Fei wanted to take a walk with Lin Xi, but this was just thinking about it.

After eating in silence, Chen Fei, who had nothing to do, lay back in the carriage.

There was nothing to do all night, and everyone set off again in the early morning, according to the scout's report, in the middle of the night, the golden fox had already retreated into the deep mountains, and the two scouts who followed the golden fox also entered the mountains together.

Everyone set off again, and in the next three days, they did not encounter a powerful demonic beast, and some of those who dared to attack were easily killed by everyone, and one of them was pulled a big hole in his chest, bandaged and placed on Chen Fei's carriage.

On the fourth day, the carriage went all the way downhill, and finally at noon, Chen Fei saw a pass in the cliff.

The cliffs on both sides are like pillars, and this pass is like a door between the two pillars, standing on this land, blocking a steady stream of demonic beasts from the door.

This is the first Xiongguan of Xiliang Road, Hutou Pass!

And Chen Fei is about to become the county commander of Hutouguan County, Liangzhou, Xiliang Road.
