Chapter 476: The Law of the Dark Forest among Sects!
Zuixianju, in Gao Huilong's office.
"How about Mr. Shen, can that person just now catch your eye?"
Gao Huilong asked while looking at Chen Xinghe while drinking fine tea leisurely.
"Hidden and hidden."
Chen Xinghe recalled the whole process of meeting Luo Yanning, and finally summed it up in four words.
From Luo Yanning, he didn't see any temperament of an ancient warrior.
It was obvious that in Chen Xinghe's view, Luo Yanning was not the same type of person as him.
But the information obtained from Gao Huilong's mouth would be difficult to explain if Luo Yanning was not an ancient warrior.
In short, today's incident made Shen Xinghe very confused.
"By the way, Lao Gao, do you have any other information about that person? For example, his occupation, or family background, etc."
Chen Xinghe thought for a while and asked Gao Huilong a question that he was more concerned about.
"You are asking the right person about this. Even though Mr. Luo is young, he is the general manager of a large private scenic spot."
"Moreover, that person is a big up influencer with more than 2 million fans on the Bl site. He also has accounts on Kuaishu, Winter Melon, and Bingshan Video."
"I estimate that the number of fans on the entire Internet is over 10 million at least."
"By the way, talking about the Lord, I remember that guy posted some videos on his account. After watching them, I called him a good guy."
"No wonder he was so strong at the Capital Martial Arts Conference. He definitely has real skills."
When it came to some information about Luo Yanning, Gao Huilong also told Shen Xinghe everything he knew. He told everything he knew.
"Grandma of the bl site? What is that?" Shen Xinghe rarely touches the Internet, and even his mobile phone is still an antique with the same buttons as before.
The Up Lord in Gao Huilong's mouth is something that almost all young people don't know, but to Shen Xinghe, it is something extremely strange.
"..."
Gao Huilong also knew about Shen Xinghe's quirks and didn't bother to explain it to him. He took out his mobile phone, opened the Bl site, found Luo Yanning's account and clicked in.
"Master Shen, take a look at this recent post he made. Take a look at it. Is this something that ordinary people can do?"
Gao Huilong directly clicked on the latest video posted on the "King of Black Dragon Mountain" account [Three days after returning to the city, a kung fu master cured my road rage] and showed it to Chen Xinghe.
When he saw Luo Yanning resisting a baseball bat without dodging, as if nothing had happened, Chen Xinghe couldn't help but his eyes lit up.
"This ability to withstand strikes is definitely not something that ordinary warriors can develop. Even the old monks from the Shaolin Temple cannot achieve this level of iron head skills and diamond shields!"
The moment he saw Luo Yanning crushing the baseball bat with one hand, Shen Xinghe was almost 100% sure that he was the ancient warrior!
"He is definitely an ancient warrior from a certain sect! His strength is definitely not inferior to mine and Yang Xiaolan's!"
After watching the complete video, Shen Xinghe confirmed Luo Yanning's identity. Apart from the ancient warrior, there was no other explanation.
"I wonder if the genius of that sect has come out to practice again!"
After confirming Luo Yanning's identity, Shen Xinghe began to speculate about Luo Yanning's origins.
Yang Xiaolan comes from the Qing Ming Sect and is the spokesperson of the Qing Ming Sect in the real world.
Chen Xinghe came from the Liuyun Sect and was the most proud of the current leader of the Liuyun Sect.
Each sect maintains a certain distance from each other and is most afraid of testing each other.
Although Chen Xinghe had contact with Yang Xiaolan, they had no further interactions.
In the real world, the relationship between the hidden sects is just like the "Law of the Dark Forest" mentioned in Three Body Problems.
There is a chain of suspicion between the major hidden sects: neither side can judge whether the other is a well-intentioned sect.
Goodwill means not taking the initiative to attack and eliminate other sects, while malice means the opposite.
A sect cannot judge whether another sect is a good sect or an evil sect.
A sect cannot judge whether another sect thinks it is a good sect or an evil sect.
A sect cannot determine whether another sect will attack its own sect.
A sect cannot judge whether another sect is benevolent or malicious toward itself.
One sect cannot tell whether another sect thinks it is well-intentioned or malicious.
A sect cannot judge whether another sect is benevolent or malicious towards it.
Specifically, the contact between two sects a and b.
Let’s assume that sect a discovers sect b first.
Due to Axiom 1, in order to ensure their own survival, two parties must first determine the good intentions and bad intentions of the other party.
Well-intentioned sects cannot think of other civilizations as benevolent in advance.
(1) If Sect A chooses to communicate with Sect B, due to the above mutual judgment, a chain of suspicion will be formed, and A will expose its own existence.
If the strength of sect a is equal, then sect b poses an actual threat to sect a after the chain of suspicion.
If the strength of Sect B lags behind that of Sect A, a surge in strength (which may be caused by the exchanges between Sect A) may cause Sect B to pose a threat to Sect A in a relatively short period of time.
(2) If Sect A chooses to hide, Sect B will still discover A after its strength surges, a chain of suspicion will occur, and Sect A’s existence will be exposed, transforming into the first situation.
To sum it up: after letting you know my existence, it will be dangerous for me to let you continue to exist.
Therefore, there is little communication between various hidden sects, and everyone develops in silence.
This "Dark Forest Law" among hidden sects is specifically believed by the previous generation, or the generation before it.
When it comes to the generation of Yang Xiaolan and Chen Xinghe, due to some major environmental changes, everyone is actually more inclined to have more contact and communicate more.
Of course, contact and communication also need to be cautious. After testing again and again, make sure that the other party is not an "evil sect" before starting communication.
The reason why Yang Xiaolan fought with Luo Yanning was that the competition was just an excuse or a cover. Testing Luo Yanning's character was her real purpose.
Whether a person's moves are vicious or vicious or full of righteousness has a lot to do with a person's character.
At this moment, what Chen Xinghe wants to do most is to have a fight with Luo Yanning and test his true identity.
However, Chen Xinghe doesn't have as good a chance as Yang Xiaolan, so it's definitely not appropriate to have a fight with someone for no reason.
"By the way, Lao Gao, what's the name of this scenic spot? I just don't have much to go to recently. If there's anything interesting, maybe I'll go there."
Chen Xinghe stopped thinking about fighting with Luo Yanning and started to inquire about some of his situation.
"Heilongshan Scenic Area, Mr. Shen, don't mention it. This scenic spot is very famous on the Internet. It is an Internet celebrity scenic spot that has just emerged recently."
"You can find a lot of videos about this scenic spot by just searching on TikTok. Let me search a few for you."
As Gao Huilong spoke, he opened the Kuaidu video app on his mobile phone and entered the five characters "Heilong Mountain Scenic Area" in the search box, and then pressed the search button.
Soon, some highly viewed videos about the Heilong Mountain Scenic Area appeared on the search results page.
Ranking first and having the most views is a snow scene video shot on the top of Heilong Mountain.
The sky was clear in other places, except for the heavy snowfall on the top of Heilong Mountain, which seemed like another world.
"This is the Black Dragon Mountain Scenic Area you mentioned? Didn't you say it's in Shishi?"
When Chen Xinghe saw the scene of snowflakes falling in Heilong Mountain, he thought he was in that place in the northeast.
"Yes, it's in Shishi! It often snows inexplicably at the top of this scenic spot. Sometimes it's light snow, sometimes it's heavy snow. Once you leave the top area, it's sunny again. Many people go to this place.
Scenic spots are for the inexplicable
Went to the snow scene."
"Moreover, I also heard that the strange weather in the Heilong Mountain Scenic Area has alerted the Meteorological Bureau of Hebei Province. Staff from the Meteorological Bureau have been stationed in the scenic area to observe the special weather."
Gao Huilong laughed and talked about some of the things he knew about the Heilong Mountain Scenic Area.
"Really? The sky is clear in other places, but it's snowing only on the top of the mountain? Is it so weird?"
After Chen Xinghe heard about the strange weather in the Black Dragon Mountain Scenic Area, he became interested in this scenic spot.
Gao Huilong said: "Of course, what I mentioned was what I saw online, and I haven't had time to see it in person.
There is a discussion group on Weibo dedicated to discussing the Heilong Mountain Scenic Area, where many netizens share what they saw and heard in the scenic area.”
Chen Xinghe asked: "Are there any other interesting places?"
"Yes, it's like a Peach Blossom Island, and there's also a recently built road that's quite popular..."
As Gao Huilong spoke, he opened a picture of Peach Blossom Island taken by tourists with his fingers.
"Look, look, look at how beautiful the peach blossoms are in bloom. It's so rare to see such beautiful peach blossoms in the cold winter months."
"For nothing else, just for the peach blossoms, it's worth a trip."
"If I have time this weekend, I would definitely go there and see if the place is as good as the netizens say."
The more Gao Huilong watched the video about the Heilong Mountain Scenic Area, the more he yearned for it, and he made up his mind and the weekend passed.
"After hearing what you said, I also want to take a look."
Chen Xinghe also developed a strong interest in the Black Dragon Mountain Scenic Area and wanted to go and find out.
Gao Huilong immediately said: "Then we have made an appointment, how about we go there together this Saturday?"
Chen Xinghe said: "I'm going to leave early tomorrow morning."
"Look, Mr. Shen and you are free-spirited people who can live freely. You can do whatever you want. You can go when you want. You can take a trip at any time."
Gao Huilong looked at Shen Xinghe and smiled helplessly and said: "I have made appointments with several presidents of the bank tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. There are some things that need to be dealt with in the company. It seems that I can't go with Mr. Shen this time."
Chen Xinghe smiled and said, "Let's talk about it when we have a chance in the future."
In fact, Chen Xinghe prefers to be alone. From the bottom of his heart, he never wants to go with Gao Huilong...
Gao Huilong smiled and said, "Well, I wish Mr. Shen a happy trip. If there is a chance, we can meet at the scenic spot."
"Let it go. I don't necessarily have to go for how long. It could be one day, two days, or three days. It all depends on my mood."
What Chen Xinghe said is true. He always comes and goes wherever he goes, rarely with any specific plans.
He might not be able to stay for more than a few hours in some popular tourist destinations before leaving.
There are some wild scenic spots in deep mountains and old forests, where he can stay for more than a month when he gets interested.
"It's getting late. I should go back and rest. Let's sit together when we have free time."
Chen Xinghe raised his hand and glanced at the watch on his wrist. Unknowingly, it was already 8pm.
Chen Xinghe has been going to bed at 9pm on time for decades and getting up at 9am the next morning.
Guaranteeing adequate sleep for 12 hours a day is more important to him than anything else.
"Ahem, Mr. Shen, our matter with the Xingshi Group..."
Seeing that Shen Xinghe was leaving, Gao Huilong hurriedly confirmed with him the matters entrusted to him.
Chen Xinghe said in a dull tone: "I'll call Xing Shi's chairman in person tomorrow morning. I'm sure he will give me some face."
"I feel relieved after Master Shen said this! Then I will wait for your good news!"
After receiving Chen Xinghe's assurance, Gao Huilong knew that the matter was more than half over, and the expression on his face instantly relaxed.
"Okay, you can go ahead and do it. There's no need to send it off. I can just go down by myself."
Chen Xinghe stood up from his seat, said goodbye to Gao Huilong, then turned and walked towards the door.
"Then Master Shen, go slowly, I won't see you off."
Gao Huilong knew that Shen Xinghe had always been a stickler for words, even if it was a matter as small as whether to give it away or not. If he said he wouldn't give it away, you'd better not give it away.
Otherwise, it will be counterproductive and thankless.
"By the way, the Luo just now...is called Luo Yanning, right?"
After Chen Xinghe walked to the door of the office, he suddenly stopped and turned to look at Gao Huilong.
"Yes, Luo Yanning, Grand Duke Shen suddenly mentioned him. Is there anything else going on?"
Gao Huilong looked at Chen Xinghe with confusion, wondering why he suddenly mentioned Luo Yanning again.
Chen Xinghe said calmly: "Whatever he spends tonight in his house is mine. Help me entertain them. I remember, Boss Gao, you seem to have a bottle of 50-year-old Moutai here, right?"
"Sure enough, I can't hide anything from you, Mr. Shen..."
Gao Huilong had a bad feeling after hearing Chen Xinghe talk about the bottle of "50-year-old Moutai". He smiled on his face, but his heart was bleeding.
Gao Huilong is also a wine lover. He finally got the bottle of 50-year-old Moutai, and he didn't even bother to take a sip.
Chen Xinghe smiled slightly and said, "Then please bear with me, Boss Gao, and give the bottle of Maotai to Luo Yanning. Just think of it as the reward for the Xing family's incident."
"Master Shen has already spoken out his words. Of course I have to give him this face. I will send it to them personally in a while."
After hearing what Shen Xinghe said, Gao Huilong readily agreed.
