\(\mathbf{l}, \mathbf{m}, \mathbf{n}\) are three unit vectors in a right handed system and \(L\) is a line through the points \(A, B, C\) whose position vectors are \(p \mathbf{l}+7 \mathbf{m}-6 \mathbf{n}, 2 \mathbf{l}+5 \mathbf{m}-4 \mathbf{n}\) and \(\mathbf{l}+4 \mathbf{m}-3 \mathbf{n}\) respectively. If the equation of the plane containing \(L\) and the points \((-p, p, p+1)\) is \(a x+b y+c z=1\), then \(p(a+b+c)=\)
