Chapter 1053: Success means life, failure means death

When Deng Kai heard that this was possible, he couldn't help but ask in confusion, "Doesn't that mean you can be whoever you are?"

"Of course not... How would an ordinary person who becomes a ghost after death know that the underworld can impersonate someone else? And even if he wants to impersonate someone else, he must meet two very important conditions: one is that the person he is impersonating happens to be dead; the second is to ensure that his soul will never report to the underworld, otherwise there will be two Gu Haos appearing at the same time, right?" Gu Hao said with a smile.

Deng Kai thought for a moment and said, "What if they have the same name? There are so many people in this world, it's common to have the same name, right?"

Gu Hao explained with a confident look, "Will your ID card be the same as someone else's? Every soul in the underworld has a code similar to an ID number. This code is unique and will not change even after reincarnation, so the situation you describe will never happen."

Then the two returned to Deng Kai's home and began to discuss how to help Wang Haoyang get revenge. Deng Kai's advantage is that he is rich, so he can only provide some material help, and as for other things, he can't help at all... Of course, the main reason is that this matter is too dangerous, and Gu Hao doesn't really want to involve Deng Kai.

When Deng Kai heard that Gu Hao wanted him to only pay money but not work, he immediately stood up from the sofa and said, "Gu Hao, you want to get rid of me after I've done my job!"

After hearing this, Gu Hao held his forehead and said, "Don't abuse words... Are you a donkey? Besides, this is too dangerous. If you fail, there is only one way out, you know?"

Deng Kai certainly knew this, so he thought for a moment and said, "Can we ask Song Jiang and Meng Zhe for help? They both have a grudge against Yang Jian."

Unexpectedly, Gu Hao shook his head and said, "No... Song Jiang must not be involved in this matter."

Deng Kai asked in confusion, "Why? You know I have no fighting ability at all. Do you still want to fight alone?"

Gu Hao sighed helplessly and said, "First of all, I want to correct one of your statements. The person we are going to deal with this time is Wang Xinglin, not Yang Jian. Can you please not set your target so high from the beginning?! If Song Jiang and Meng Zhe are involved... then our target will change from Wang Xinglin to Yang Jian, and there will be almost no possibility of success."

Deng Kai scratched his hair in annoyance when he heard this and said, "What's the difference? Don't we all know that Yang Jian is behind Wang Xinglin? Isn't dealing with him the same as dealing with Yang Jian?"

Gu Hao shook his head and said, "Of course it's different... As long as our plan goes smoothly, my bet is that Wang Xinglin will become Yang Jian's abandoned child. Without Yang Jian's help, Wang Xinglin will be mine."

Deng Kai was still a little worried after hearing this and said, "But what if... I mean what if, what if this thing doesn't work out in the end?"

Gu Hao leaned back on the sofa and said calmly, "That's easy... The worst that can happen is death."

Deng Kai nodded and said, "It's okay... at worst we can just find another body."

Unexpectedly, Gu Hao said in a deep voice, "What are you thinking? You only have one chance... If I fail, I will die along with this body." Deng Kai was stunned, then he grabbed Gu Hao's arm and said, "What? Are you saying that I can't find another body to replace it?"

Gu Hao smiled and shook his head after hearing this and said, "Are you stupid? Offering yourself is not a joke... It's not as simple as changing your body if it doesn't work this time. I've said before that this is the most unconstrained transaction. Once it starts, it can't be ended."

Deng Kai panicked when he heard this. He said angrily, "It's all my fault... If I had known earlier... If I had known that I couldn't change, I wouldn't have given you such a difficult task."

But Gu Hao said leisurely, "The conditions for sacrifice are never easy... Every time it is a gamble between me and fate. If I succeed, I live, if I fail, I die."

Since Gu Hao obtained Wang Haoyang's body, he naturally also obtained all of his memories. He first returned to the other party's former home and took away all the information and property that he could use. Then, according to Wang Haoyang's memory, he found Uncle Li's mountain homestay.

He told Deng Kai that he would be away for a few days and would come back after he came up with a proper solution. But Deng Kai was very worried about this, and always felt that Gu Hao wanted to get rid of him and work alone, so he waited anxiously every day... In the end, he did not listen to Gu Hao and told Song Jiang about this matter.

After hearing this, Song Jiang first expressed his approval of Deng Kai's treasonous behavior, but at the same time he silently made up his mind that if he really wanted to do something dangerous that they couldn't know about in the future, he must never let Deng Kai know about it. After all, his big mouth couldn't keep any secrets.

A few days later, Gu Hao came back from the mountain. When he saw that it was Song Jiang and Deng Kai who came to pick him up, he guessed most of what was going on. He glared at Deng Kai and said, "Can you keep your mouth shut?!"

Deng Kai immediately changed the subject and said, "The environment in this mountain is pretty good. When this problem is completely solved, I will invest some money here... How about we try to make this place bigger and stronger?"

Gu Hao didn't say anything after hearing this. In the end, Song Jiang quickly tried to smooth things over, saying, "Deng Kai can't be blamed for this. He only said that after I tortured him severely... Shouldn't you have let me know about this? It was me who caused you to lose your previous body, so naturally I should help you find a suitable new body, right?!"

Just as Gu Hao was about to speak, Song Jiang interrupted him and said, "I know what you are worried about... Don't worry, as long as Meng Zhe doesn't know about this, we can quietly deal with Wang Xinglin without alerting Yang Jian. Just as you said, with Yang Jian's personality, as long as he becomes a discarded pawn, he will definitely not even bother to look at him."

When Song Jiang lived in Baigonguan before, he knew what Wang Xinglin had done for his fortune, but he didn't expect that the other party would be so crazy. For those things that could not be brought with him when he was born and could not be taken with him when he died, he actually squeezed his own blood relatives dry and even had children to continue squeezing them.

Deng Kai said angrily when he heard this, "Compared to Wang Xinglin, my father is still somewhat humane... At least he cares about his relationship with my mom and treats me well."

Unexpectedly, Gu Hao poured cold water on him and said, "That's because you are too useless. Your father doesn't even care about your status."

Deng Kai was immediately so angry that he lost his temper. He could only rub his nose awkwardly and said, "So what? Being a waste is also a way to save your life."
