Xu Jianguo looked at Yuye Zhenren who was sitting opposite him and asked, "Did something happen to the old Taoist priest?"
True Man Yuye nodded, then shook his head and said, "Fellow Daoist Xuanjue is out on a mission. I don't know the specifics of the mission, but before he left, he told me that if he didn't come back in a month, he wanted me to come find you, saying you might be able to save him! As for whether he's in trouble or what happened, I don't know."
After listening to this, Xu Jianguo had some guesses in his mind. According to his understanding of the old Taoist priest, if this mission was not extremely dangerous, he would definitely not tell these words to Master Yuye.
So after pondering for a moment, he said, "I won't ask about the mission. Do you know where they went? I don't need the exact location, just tell me the approximate direction!"
Master Yuye shook his head, saying that he didn't know where they had gone.
Xu Jianguo was feeling a little annoyed now. Yuye Zhenren didn't know anything about anything he asked, and he couldn't go directly to the 749 Bureau to ask the master. This would only expose himself and would not have any effect.
He grabbed the cigarette box on the table, lit a cigarette for himself, and forced himself to calm down.
After a moment, he spoke: "Master Yuye, I will find a way to resolve this matter. Thank you for coming to inform me in person!"
Yuye Zhenren naturally noticed Xu Jianguo's somewhat anxious state at the moment. He waved his hand and said, "Fellow Daoist Xuanjue and I are discussing the Dao, and we appreciate each other. I will naturally not ignore his affairs. If there is anything I can help you with, you can come to Yuye Temple to find me, and I will do my best to help!"
Xu Jianguo nodded and expressed his gratitude again, then called Liu Yang and sent Master Yuye out the door.
When Xu Jianguo was the only one left in the office, his brows furrowed deeply again.
Soon, a cigarette burned out. Xu Jianguo pressed the cigarette butt into the ashtray, opened the system panel in his mind, and sent a message to Fu Bo.
Xu Jianguo's idea was very simple. The most important thing now was to confirm the signs of the old Taoist priest, so he planned to take a two-pronged approach.
One is to use the world map in his mind to check the old Taoist priest's previous coordinates to see where he last appeared before he disappeared.
Secondly, he wanted Fu Bo to use the space portal to sneak into the 749th Bureau and see if he could find the records of their mission. Only in this way could he figure out the destination of the old Taoist priest and his team.
After determining the idea, Xu Jianguo sent a message to Fu Bo, asking him to notify other idle space servants and take action at the same time. After all, no one knew where the task file would be placed, and with more people, the efficiency would be higher.
Some people may ask why Xu Jianguo knew the address of such a secret unit as Bureau 749.
In fact, this was also thanks to the old Taoist priest who had just spoken out when he joined the 749th Bureau and told Xu Jianguo the location of the 749th Institute (fictitious) on West Chang'an Street.
After all the tasks were assigned, Xu Jianguo picked up the phone on the table and called Liu Mingyu, the deputy director of the institute, and then took Zhao Changshan and Liu Yang back home by car.
After returning home, Xu Jianguo called Wen Sitian again, saying that he had something to do in the evening and would not be home for dinner, and then he slipped into the space.
Arriving at the study, Xu Jianguo opened the world map in his mind and began to check the coordinates and movements of the old Taoist priest. He found that the last place he appeared was in the mountains of Dianzhou Province.
A dozen miles away from the location where his coordinates last disappeared, there is a small village called Lange Village (fictitious), and apart from this village, there are deep mountains and old forests within a radius of dozens of kilometers.
Therefore, Xu Jianguo guessed that the destination of the old Taoist priest and his companions was most likely Langge Village.
Even if this is not their destination, it is very likely one of their resting places. After all, the coordinates last appeared at around two o'clock in the afternoon. If they do not go to Lange Village, it means they will have to spend the night in the wild, which is not a good thing in the deep mountains and forests.
Xu Jianguo took out a notebook, wrote down the name of Lange Village, then drew two horizontal lines under it and wrote a big question mark behind it.
Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye it was already late at night. Since returning to the space, Xu Jianguo has been staying in the study. Even dinner was prepared and brought in by Xu Xiaoshi.
At two o'clock in the morning, everything was ready, and Fu Bo and ten other space servants, carrying some advanced equipment, went to Bureau 749 through the space portal.
In order to ensure the smooth progress of the operation, Fu Bo went to the vicinity of Bureau 749 in the afternoon and secretly released a micro-drone newly developed by Xu Shisi to take a look at the situation inside Bureau 749.
Therefore, Fu Bo and his team's actions at this time were not unprepared, but they had already figured out the internal situation of Bureau 749 and marked out several possible locations where mission files might be stored in advance.
With the help of micro drones and fiber optic peepscopes, Fu Bo and his team arrived at their respective target locations very smoothly. Finally, they found the files about the old Taoist priest's mission in the archive room on the fourth underground floor.
Since there were armed guards outside the archive room, Fu Bo specially used a micro drone to fly into the archive room through the exhaust vent to check the situation.
After confirming that there was no one on duty in the archive room, he used the space to appear directly inside the archive room, and finally found what he wanted on the shelf marked with unfinished tasks.
As soon as he found the file, Fu Bo notified the other servants to return to the space immediately, and he used a camera to take pictures of all the contents in the file.
Xu Jianguo stayed in the study room because he was waiting for news from Fu Bo.
Just as it was almost five o'clock in the morning, he finally received the good news from Fu Bo.
More than ten minutes later, Fu Bo appeared in front of Xu Jianguo and handed him the printed photos.
Xu Jianguo took the information and looked at it carefully, but after a while, his brows furrowed deeply again.
Because the content of a photo at this time deeply caught his attention: top secret, ghost village, villagers disappeared en masse, all investigators lost contact...
