Lu Yichen notified his father, Lu Xinyi, and Big Brother, Lu Yixuan, to return to the Gu family together to discuss the next steps in handling the situation.
The expert team, upon arrival, wore face masks and rubber gloves as a precaution before entering the afflicted village.
They collected samples from various places and urgently sent them to the nearest laboratory for analysis, splitting into two groups to visit the homes of the sick to understand and examine their conditions.

Everyone was startled and promptly set down their cups of water.
