After returning to the space, Xu Jianguo and the old Taoist priest went to see the people from Bureau 749 who had been rescued.
I saw that they were still in a coma, but after receiving glucose, their complexion looked better than before.
In order to arouse as little suspicion as possible, Fu Bo and his team did not insert the needle into their hands when injecting, but instead inserted the needle into their feet.
Xu Jianguo and Fu Bo asked when these people would wake up, and learned that it would take at least two hours.
It was already past midnight, which meant that Xu Jianguo had to send these people back to Lange Village before two o'clock in the morning.
As for how to explain what happened later, that was none of his business. Xu Jianguo was not prepared to get involved in this mess anyway. If it weren't for saving the old Taoist priest, he wouldn't even have come to Dianzhou.
Xu Jianguo had no intention of keeping alive the two villagers from Lange Village who had been captured and interrogated by the space servants. This was mainly because the space servants, based on the information they provided, found the four guards who had been killed by them with poison needles in a cellar in a courtyard in the village.
Those who kill will be killed!
So Xu Jianguo planned to let his servants deal with the people from Bureau 749 after sending them out of the space, and leave them and those black-robed men in the space as nutrients.
The little Taoist boy disguised as a space servant that Xu Jianguo had arranged for the old Taoist priest also followed the old Taoist priest again.
With the previous experience, the old man now takes the little Taoist boy with him wherever he goes. Xu Jianguo laughed at this scene, but he didn't know how he would explain it after dawn.
In the blink of an eye, it was already two o'clock in the morning, and the people in Bureau 749 had finished injecting glucose.
So Xu Jianguo arranged for the space servants to send these people back to Lange Village and placed them next to the ancient well along with their personal belongings.
In addition, the "left-handed calligrapher" Du Yu also came online again, wrote down the general ins and outs of the matter, pressed it with a stone and placed it by the well.
When the old Taoist priest appeared in the village with his little Taoist boy, no one knew what the so-called master and disciple said to each other, but the little Taoist boy quickly left the village and disappeared into the mountains.
Xu Jianguo looked at the time, gave the old Taoist a few instructions, and after seeing him find a place to lie down and pretend to sleep, he slipped into the space.
…
Not long after Xu Jianguo left, the people in Bureau 749 began to wake up one after another.
Since it was still dark and the anesthetic had not been completely absorbed by the body, these people still looked dazed after waking up.
Some people who woke up first even thought they were still trapped underground.
Because it was not long after the beginning of autumn, and Lange Village was located on the mountain, some people discovered something wrong at around four or five in the morning.
First, they heard the chirping of insects and birds coming from the surrounding area.
Secondly, a faint light appeared in the distant sky.
It was not until then that the people from Bureau 749 realized what was going on and discovered that they had returned to the village without anyone noticing.
Some people can still vaguely remember what happened last night. They seemed to see human figures and flashlights, and then they felt like they were pricked by needles, and then they knew nothing.
In this way, more and more people woke up. The old Taoist priest who pretended to be asleep slowly opened his eyes after seeing that most of them woke up.
Immediately afterwards, cheers broke out in Lange Village.
As the first ray of sunlight shone into the village, the eyes of these people who had regained their new life could not help but turn red.
The captains of the two teams also discovered the letter written by Du Yu with his left hand at the first time.
When they found the bodies of the four murdered soldiers at the location described in the letter, everyone clenched their fists at the same time.
Due to the hot and humid temperature in Dianzhou, the bodies of the four soldiers had already decayed and smelled bad, but the people in the 749th Bureau did not feel any disgust, only deep sadness.
After discussion, the captains of the two teams decided to leave the bodies of the soldiers in the cellar for the time being. The most important thing at the moment was to contact their superiors and report what happened in Lange Village.
As for who saved them and what the secret of the "ghost worship" ceremony in Lange Village is, they will have to wait until their superiors arrive to study it.
However, ideals are full, but reality is often very skinny. After the soldier in charge of sending the message fiddled with the radio, he shook his head at the two captains, indicating that their village was still full of serious interference. If they wanted to send a message, they had to leave the village first.
Finally, the two captains discussed it and decided that one team would stay to guard the village, while the second team would go to the top of the mountain to find a place to send a message.
But before that, there is one more important thing, which is to fill your stomach first.
Although they had glucose to support themselves, their stomachs were still empty. Fortunately, they were in the village and the villagers did not take the food when they left, so they were able to solve their food and clothing problems very well.
In fact, it would be better if it wasn't mentioned. But when someone really talked about eating, everyone's stomachs started to growl involuntarily.
At six o'clock in the morning, everyone found a house closest to the ancient well and cooked a big pot of rice porridge using their iron pot and earthen stove.
It was precisely because of their action that the garrison guarding outside the village discovered something was wrong.
The old Taoist priest who knew the truth of the matter did not say a word throughout the whole process, but just watched the development of the situation quietly.
"Report!" A soldier on duty outside Lange Village found the tent where his platoon leader was and shouted.
"Come in!"
As soon as the young soldier entered the tent, he immediately said, "Platoon leader, something's happening!"
"What's wrong?"
"I saw smoke from the village!"
"What did you say? Say it again!" The platoon leader stood up immediately after hearing it.
"I said I saw smoke from the village!"
"Are you sure? Is there really smoke from cooking?"
"Absolutely true!"
"Come on, take me there!"
Just like that, more than ten minutes later, the ten chief-level investigators from Bureau 749, led by two companies of armed soldiers, quietly moved towards Lange Village.
Another hour later, the senior management of Jingzhou 749 Bureau received news from Lange Village.
Not long after, two archaeology professors who participated in the excavation of the ancient Dian Kingdom ruins in 1956 were invited to the conference room of Bureau 749.
Then a discussion meeting about the "ghost worship" ceremony in Lange Village began.
