He looked around, keeping an eye out for other people around.
The old man turned his head and glanced at Lan Fengyuan. He suddenly exclaimed in surprise and said in a weathered voice, "You look unfamiliar. Why are you in this Earth Valley?"
Lan Fengyuan still kept his guard up and replied casually, "I'm looking for someone."
The old man was stunned for a moment, then said with a smile, "In this valley, including me, there are less than ten families. Who are you looking for?"
"I have a little brother who came here a few days ago, but I lost contact with him. I'm looking for him," Lan Fengyuan said tentatively.
The old man frowned and waved his hand, saying, "Then he must be dead."
Lan Fengyuan's right hand trembled when he heard that. He didn't fully believe it, so he asked in a low voice, "Why do you say that?"
The old man's expression became somewhat disdainful. He said impatiently, "Your little brother must have been blinded by money. He heard some rumors and went into the man-eating abyss. I guess not even his bones are left now."
Man-eating abyss?
The old man's words confused Lan Fengyuan. He asked, "Where is this man-eating abyss?"
The old man pointed to the east. They were the "Eastern Mountain" and the "Western Mountain".
Lan Fengyuan suddenly realized that the so-called "man-eating abyss" was the "Earth Village".
The old man seemed to be blinded by money. Seeing that Lan Fengyuan was dressed luxuriously, he immediately lowered his head and continued with his work.
Lan Fengyuan didn't know what the old man wanted, but he was not a kind person.
In an instant, Lan Fengyuan released a terrifying aura. The old man was just an ordinary person, so it was difficult for him to withstand the coercion of a half-step Wu Zun. Even if it was only one percent, it was enough to make the old man lie on the ground, unable to move.
"You …" The old man panicked, his expression changing drastically.
"You better tell me what you know, I don't have much patience!" Lan Fengyuan's face became extremely gloomy, his tone was low. The old man hurriedly shouted.
"I'll talk, I'll talk!" When Lan Fengyuan's pressure disappeared, the old man heaved a sigh of relief and began to talk about the Great Earth Valley.
The Great Earth Valley was located at the border between the Western Continent and the Eastern Continent. It was lacking in resources and was located in a remote area. Very few powerful figures came here.
A few hundred years ago, the Great Earth Valley was still very prosperous, with several villages and a population of hundreds of thousands.
However, due to the limited resources in the Great Earth Valley, more and more young people chose to leave.
In the end, Lan Fengyuan patiently listened to the old man's nagging. After a long time, the old man finally talked about the Earth Village.
Since ancient times, the Man-Eating Abyss had been a legend passed down in the Valley of the Earth.
It was said that at the border between the Eastern Mountains and the Western Mountains, there used to be a powerful race. This race eventually died out for unknown reasons.
As for the undead of this race, their vengeful spirits did not disperse and guarded that area.
"There has always been a saying in the valley that there are countless gold and silver treasures in the abyss. When I was young, there were some people who entered the abyss, but none of them returned." The old man sighed, as if remembering the past, and said, "I'm afraid that little brother of yours has already died here."
Lan Fengyuan heard this and fell silent.
Could it be that Menka really did not listen to his orders and entered the Earth Village without permission, and encountered some danger?
Lan Fengyuan did not give up and described Menka's appearance, wanting to know if the old man had seen him before.
After all, if Menka came here to investigate, he would definitely ask around. There was no reason that the old man had not seen him before.
"Although I'm old, I still have a good memory. There are only a few people in this valley, and I know every single one of them." The old man said proudly.
Lan Fengyuan showed a look of disappointment. Just as he was about to leave, the old man changed the topic and said, "But you can also go to the horse farm and ask around. They often collect flowers and plants in the valley, maybe they will know where your little brother is."
"Horse farm?" Lan Fengyuan was a little confused. The old man had clearly said that there were less than ten families in the valley, so why was there a horse farm?
The old man then explained that this horse farm was built here decades ago by a powerful force.
Although the valley was lacking in resources, there were some precious herbs that could be used to refine pills.
The people of the horse farm were in charge of collecting these herbs, and the farmers in the valley had always been collecting herbs to exchange for food with the horse farm.
The old man pointed in the direction of the horse farm. After bidding farewell, Lan Fengyuan immediately flew in the direction of the horse farm.
He didn't expect that there would be a power developing in such a remote place like the Great Earth Valley.
The horse farm was located in the depths of the Great Earth Valley, and Lan Fengyuan quickly went deep into the valley.
In front of him was a crescent mountain peak. At the bottom of the mountain, Lan Fengyuan saw the horse farm that the old man had mentioned.
At first glance, Lan Fengyuan knew that this "Horse Manor" was not as simple as it seemed.
It didn't look like a village, but more like a military camp. There were towering metal walls all around, and there were watchtowers in the four corners. There were soldiers on top of the watchtowers, looking around and guarding.
"Interesting … a place where even birds don't shit, actually has such a power." Lan Fengyuan immediately released his divine sense and discovered that although there weren't many people in the horse farm, they weren't weak.
There were less than a hundred people in the horse farm, but there were three Wu Huang, and the rest were all Martial Master soldiers.
Moreover, in the horse farm, Lan Fengyuan also felt a relatively strong aura, which should have reached the realm of half-step Wu Sheng.
With Lan Fengyuan's sharp divine sense, it wasn't difficult for him to sense that there were people talking in the horse farm.
In the center of the horse farm, there was a loft.
Currently, a few figures were seated around a round table in the pavilion. They were drinking and having fun, laughing and fooling around.
These people were the three Wu Huang and that Wu Sheng in the horse farm.
"Brother Ma, the last time we caught that guy, he seemed to have come for the abyss."
"I hope Elder Liu can get some useful information. Damn it, we've been here for the past few decades, but we haven't even found a way to enter." That Wu Sheng was called Ma Daha. Now, he was swearing and his face was slightly red. It was obvious that he was a little drunk.
"This place where even birds don't shit is full of old women. It's hard to find a real woman."
The others all chimed in, and their voices were filled with dissatisfaction.
"But brothers, don't worry. The higher-ups won't mistreat us. I heard from Elder Liu that guy has a map. This time, we should be able to find a way to enter." Ma Daha comforted them.
The speaker didn't mean it, but the listener did.
When Lan Fengyuan, who was outside the horse farm, heard everything, the veins on his forehead bulged.
If he wasn't mistaken, the guy that these people were talking about was Menka.
