"Almost down there?"
After walking down for a long time, Luo Xingchen felt a great loss of physical strength.
"Come on, there's one last jump left, jump with me."
Lan Yiping was at the front, with her feet on the stone wall and her body jumping quickly into the clouds and mist ahead.
The front looks like a mass of mist, and there is no point of focus. If there is a deep valley ahead, such a leap will be a sure way to death.
No matter how high your martial arts skills are, if you fall from such a high place, you will die. Human strength is insignificant in the face of the power of nature.
However, Luo Xingchen did not hesitate, nor was he even afraid. He followed Lan Yiping's steps and jumped forward quickly.
Following closely behind him was Shi Yiyun.
"Huhuhu..."
What came to his ears was the sound of wind blowing through his body, constantly passing by his ears, and Luo Xingchen's body fell forward.
At this time, Lan Yiping had disappeared before his eyes, submerged in the clouds and mist, and was nowhere to be found.
"call!"
Luo Xingchen's body was driven by a force and moved sideways about one meter.
At the same time, he felt his feet on the ground, and he immediately lowered his body to slow down the impact of his fall.
After finally stabilizing his body, he found that Shi Yiyun had fallen beside him.
At this time, Luo Xingchen realized that if he had not had the power to move him just now, he would have fallen into the deep valley. At that time, his life or death would have been uncertain.
"There is a crack between Changyang Valley and the mountain peak. This crack is very deep, more than tens of thousands of meters long. Seniors have explored it before, but no one can really get to the bottom." Lan Yiping said with a smile.
Luo Xingchen glanced at the crack on his side...
After landing on the ground at this time, the clouds and fog were very thin, and there was no big obstruction to his vision. In this way, he could clearly see where the crack was.
The crack connected to the mountain and was at least ten meters wide.
If you don't follow Lan Yiping's method of jumping out from a high place and jumping over these ten meters, you will inevitably fall into the crack.
"This terrain is too terrifying. Ordinary people should not even think about coming down. Even those with high martial arts skills will die without a burial if they are not informed of the terrain in advance."
Luo Xingchen sighed.
"Of course. If this place wasn't dangerous, how could it be chosen as a place of seclusion by seniors?" Shi Yiyun said.
"Let's go. Get there as soon as possible. If it's later, Dugu Lao will go into seclusion." Lan Yiping took the lead and walked inside.
"Who is Mr. Dugu?" Luo Xingchen asked in a low voice.
"He is the previous leader of our Zoroastrian Cult, a highly respected old man." Shi Yiyun said.
Luo Xingchen was thinking in his heart, what kind of virtue and respect are there? The Zoroastrian Cult is a group of demons, and the former leader is the old demon.
"Isn't it true that in Zoroastrianism, the next leader will take over after the previous leader dies?"
The top management of the Zoroastrian Cult is extremely mysterious. Outside spies are already very capable if they can identify some of the top members of the Zoroastrian Cult. As for how the Zoroastrian Cult is passed down, outsiders can only speculate based on clues.
"Where did you know about it?" Shi Yiyun asked.
"When I was at Qishanguan, I read some information about Zoroastrianism collected by Marshal Yue. It mentioned the inheritance of the leader of Zoroastrian Cult, which means that the leader held the post until his last breath." Luo Xingchen said.
"The Zoroastrian Cult has been inherited for hundreds of years. It is true that many leaders died in office, but there are also many leaders who abdicated in favor of others... What kind of information are you looking at?" Shi Yiyun shook his head.
"So that's it. It seems that Marshal Yue's intelligence is very biased, and other aspects are not so trustworthy."
Luo Xingchen now finally figured out why Yue Leiting was so cautious. Not to mention other aspects, just the intelligence aspect was a big problem.
If there is any deviation in the intelligence, it will be a huge difference. Once the war actually breaks out, no one can predict what will happen.
"Your great commander Qi Yue is a good fighter, but he is best at adapting to the situation in battle instead of making an overall plan. He is still relatively weak in the area of intelligence."
Shi Yiyun said.
"Stop chatting and follow us. We will enter the valley as soon as possible."
Lan Yiping turned around and said.
Shi Yiyun and Luo Xingchen didn't say anything anymore and quickly followed them.
Along the way, the terrain turned out not to go down, but up.
There are many positions along the road, and people are stationed for defense.
Luo Xingchen took a few glances and roughly judged that if he wanted to attack this position, it would be impossible to attack it without thousands of people and suitable tools.
As for the mountain in front, the huge cracks, and the terrain, it is almost impossible to transport thousands of people and tools smoothly.
After passing several positions, what appeared in front of Luo Xingchen was a large square and a large group of buildings behind the square.
Although the buildings are not gorgeous, they have different shapes and look very liveable.
Luo Xingchen initially thought that living in seclusion was the kind of living in a thatched house, planting a few vegetable plots, raising a few chickens and ducks, and farming at the foot of the southern mountain.
But the actual seclusion is to live in a large complex of buildings, with all kinds of servants coming in an endless stream, and there are also many of those believers.
This seems to be a large manor.
"Look, Mr. Dugu and Mr. Liquor are over there." Lan Yiping pointed forward.
On the side of the huge square, under a lush tree, two old men were sitting opposite each other, with a large plate in the middle. They were arguing over something with red faces.
When Luo Xingchen saw it for the first time, he couldn't help but reach out and rub his eyes, for fear that he had seen it wrong.
"Aunt Lan, is that Senior Jiuxian?" Luo Xingchen asked in a low voice.
"Yes, have you heard of the old master Jiuxian?" Lan Yiping said.
"Yes, I've heard of it!" Luo Xingchen strode closer.
He shouted from a distance: "Senior Jiu Xian!"
The Jiu Xian turned around, with a happy face on his face, stretched out his hand to touch his white beard, and shouted: "Chen'er, you came just in time, come here and tell this old guy clearly where he went wrong!"
"Senior Jiu Xian, you are in good health as before..."
Just as Luo Xingchen said something, he was interrupted by the Jiuxian.
"Stop talking nonsense, kid, let's take a look at this question."
With no choice, Luo Xingchen had no choice but to walk to the plate.
It turned out that the plate was filled with sand, and in the sand, there was an arithmetic problem written on a thin stick.
"This is using the circle cutting technique to calculate pi." Luo Xingchen understood it at a glance.
Old Dugu, who was sitting opposite, raised his head: "Old man Jiu said that he has a junior who is a genius in arithmetic. It turns out that old man Jiu was telling the truth."
"Fart, when did I ever tell a lie?" The wine master rolled his eyes strangely.
"Didn't you tell a lie? Who said that the old wine used by the royal family only had three jars?" Dugu Lao said slowly.
