Chapter 1057 Bathing and changing clothes

Wang Haoyang grew up abroad and received a Western education. Although he returned to China when he was a teenager, he shouldn't believe these things based on his personality. So Gu Hao acted a little unbelievable and said, "You built a tomb under your own house?!"

Wang Xinglin was very satisfied with Wang Haoyang's ignorant appearance, so he smiled and said, "You don't understand Feng Shui..."

Gu Hao knew that Wang Xinglin was just trying to fool him, so he didn't ask any more questions. At this time, a huge carved stone door appeared in front of him. On the stone door were several large characters "Wang's Ancestral Hall" in seal script. Then Wang Xinglin turned a raised Bagua-shaped decoration next to the stone door, and the stone door slowly opened by itself.

Even the real Gu Hao had never seen the scene inside the stone gate. This level of formation that leverages momentum was definitely not something that mortals could know. The space inside the stone gate was very large, and it could be said that it almost hollowed out half of the mountain behind Baigongguan...

"This place... isn't it a little too big?" Gu Hao couldn't help but sigh.

Wang Xinglin said with a little pride, "Of course... This is the life and property of several generations of our Wang family."

After hearing this, Gu Hao immediately looked around, trying to find the center of the formation as soon as possible. However, he saw a huge copper furnace hanging in the center of the hall. Ordinary people would only think that the copper furnace was an antique decoration here, but Gu Hao recognized at a glance that this copper furnace was no ordinary item.

The copper furnace was about five meters high, engraved with strange runes all over, and hung in the air by four iron chains as thick as bowls. Although he hadn't gotten close yet, Gu Hao could already feel bursts of negative energy emanating from it. He thought this must be the center of the formation... But for a moment, he couldn't figure out why Wang Xinglin used a large copper furnace as the center of the formation.

Thinking of this, Gu Hao asked curiously, "Aren't you talking about the Wang family's ancestral hall here? Why is there such a big furnace hanging there? Are you learning how to make elixirs from the Supreme Lord?!"

Wang Xinglin knew that Wang Haoyang was joking, but he still nodded and said, "It seems that you are quite insightful... I've said before that I like you the most out of all the kids. Do you know why? Because your temperament is most similar to mine."

Gu Hao couldn't help but complain in his heart after hearing this, "What's the use of it... In the end, won't it become your consumables?" But he said, "Really...? I haven't seen other children either, who knows whether what you said is true or false."

Wang Xinglin smiled and said to him, "Let's go... there are tablets for your grandparents in the back. Go over and burn some incense for them."

Having come this far, it was natural that every step of the necessary procedures had to be followed. So Gu Hao followed Wang Xinglin around the copper furnace and walked to the back where tablets were placed. As a result, he saw that there were dozens of tablets placed there, some of which were covered with red cloth, and he didn't know whose names were on them.

At this time, a man in a black robe walked out from behind the shelf where the memorial tablets were placed with an expressionless face, which immediately scared Gu Hao. He immediately looked at Wang Xinglin and said, "Who is this person? He suddenly came out and scared me..."

Wang Xinglin did not answer, but nodded slightly at the other party and said, "After all, he is a descendant of the Wang family. Let him burn some incense first... and inform all the ancestors."

After hearing this, the man walked over, took out three incense sticks from the altar, lit them, and handed them to Gu Hao, then sang loudly, "Wang Haoyang, a descendant of the Wang family, returns to his ancestral home today..." Gu Hao knew that the man in front of him had been helping Wang Xinglin guard the leverage formation, so he must not be a simple person. So after he finished burning incense, he deliberately looked at Wang Xinglin and said, "Would you like to introduce him? Is his surname Wang as well? Or is he my brother?"

Unexpectedly, before Wang Xinglin could answer, the man said sternly, "I don't think I am that lucky... Mr. Wang, please follow me to the back to take a shower and change clothes."

In fact, when Gu Hao saw the copper stove, he had guessed most of it in his heart. Now that he was asked to take a shower and change clothes, he already knew what the old man Wang Xinglin wanted to do, so he refused to cooperate and said, "No need... I just took a shower this morning."

Gu Hao thought that Wang Xinglin would persuade him after he said that, but the old man was too lazy to pretend. He said to the man in a deep voice, "Master Ma... hurry up and get started."

After hearing this, Master Ma turned his head and said behind him, "Come out and take Mr. Xiao Wang to bathe."

As soon as he finished speaking, two burly men came out from behind, grabbed Gu Hao like a chicken, and dragged him to the back without saying a word. Gu Hao struggled and shouted at Wang Xinglin, "What are you doing?! Do I have to take a bath?!"

When Gu Hao was dragged to the back, he discovered that there was actually a huge pool of water in the space blocked by the black curtain behind the tablet. At this time, the two burly men began to take off Gu Hao's clothes without saying a word. Although Gu Hao might not be their opponent if he insisted on resisting, he just wanted to see what was going on.

With a splash, Gu Hao was stripped naked and thrown into the pool. The force was really strong... When Gu Hao struggled to stand up from the pool, he found that the substance in the pool was actually a dark red solution with a strong fishy smell and full of yin energy. Wouldn't it make you dirtier if you take a bath with this thing? !

"What the hell is this?! Let me out!" Gu Hao tried to climb out of the pool with his hands and feet, but was pushed back by the two big men several times. Seeing that this was not a solution, Gu Hao shouted loudly to the outside, "Wang Xinglin! Come in and explain what happened. My mother said you are not a good person, and it seems that she is right! You don't want to come in, right? Then do you believe that I will die right here!!"

The threat seemed to work, as Master Ma came in and said to Gu Hao in a cold voice, "You are very brave... None of the people who came before dared to threaten with death."

Gu Hao sneered after hearing this, "Yeah... After all, a dead person is useless, right? Tell me, what exactly are you going to do? Where's that old beast Wang Xinglin? Don't you dare show up? Don't hide like a coward!"

"Be careful with your words and actions...he is your father after all." Master Ma said in a deep voice.

Gu Hao was immediately amused by the other party's words, "Don't you know whether he is worthy of being a father?! Stop pretending now. Does he want my heart? Or does he want my liver? No, no! If it's really an organ transplant, you definitely wouldn't come to this kind of place. You guys are not... trying to kill me to silence me, are you?!"
