He started as a shepherd and took on countless jobs.

"Fire King, Water King, Power King, I have something for you three kings to inspect."

The two demons, Lu Qingya and Hu Xiaoman, carrying the medicinal bath recipe, hurriedly ran into the gourd cave.

All three kings were burly men. The muscles on the outside bulge out in layers.

The three large bald heads resembled braised eggs, reflecting light.

The Fire King held a red gourd on his head, with the character "炎" (fire) printed on it.

The Water King held a blue gourd atop his head, with the character "淼" (miao) printed on it.

Riki-Oh holds a yellow gourd on his head, with the character "Riki" (力, meaning strength) printed on it.

Three Gourd Kings!

"Give it to me." Li Wang flicked his finger, and the vines grew wildly, hooking the medicinal bath paper over.

"Big brother, second brother, take a look." Li Wang passed the paper over.

"Oh ho?" Fire King said.

"These materials are all available in the cave to improve your qualifications!" said the Water King.

"Lu Qingya, Hu Xiaoman, tell me, where did you get this method from?" the Water King asked.

"On our way to patrol the mountains, we ran into a Taoist priest. We scared him a bit, and he offered this method to sign up," Hu Xiaoman said, winking.

"Hahaha, they really are bad boys, not bad!" Fire King laughed heartily.

Li Wang: "Find a small gourd and let him experiment on it."

"Can."

In no time at all.

A gourd demon, which had transformed into a half-demon and half-human form, jumped into the large pot.

"Wow, this feels so good!" The little gourd demon exclaimed, feeling his pores contracting to expel toxins.

"How does it feel?" Fire King rubbed his hands together and asked impatiently.

"Fire King, I think... I think I've become smarter." The little gourd demon banged its head.

The martial arts techniques passed down through bloodlines, which were originally obscure and difficult to understand, were now completely understood and comprehended.

The little gourd demon assumed a horse stance, his face beaming with excitement, and exclaimed joyfully, "My lords, I could never execute the fourth move of the Gourd Fist before, but now I can!"

The demons gasped in astonishment at the sight of his fist.

It really is the fourth move of the Calabash Fist!

This medicinal bath method truly can improve one's physical attributes.

"Very well, very well, Lu Qingya and Hu Xiaoman, you two deserve a generous reward!"

"From this day forward, I hereby appoint you as the Great Generals Guarding the Southern Heavenly Gate!" The Water King clapped his hands in approval and bestowed the titles on the spot.

"Your Majesty, I thank you!"

"Thank you for your great favor, Your Majesty!"

The two demons, Lu Qingya and Hu Xiaoman, were overjoyed.

The Great General Guarding the Southern Heavenly Gate!

This official position sounds very high.

But where does the South Heavenly Gate come from in their Calabash Mountain?

"Bring out the big bathtub. Today, all the little demons in the cave will take a medicinal bath for me!" King Li said, hands on his hips.

"May Your Majesty be mighty!"

…………

Pei Si paid the entrance fee and walked leisurely to Yongping Ward.

Qinghui Alley.

Start counting from the beginning.

The third shop.

The receptionist was old and thin. When Pei Si arrived, she raised her eyes slightly.

Pei Si handed over the note.

The old man took the note and glanced at it.

"Hold on."

The old man turned and went into the cubicle.

Before long, the old man brought out a small bag of incense money and placed it on the counter.

The old man raised an eyebrow; this person was efficient.

Not long after, the gourd demons in the gourd cave were already in a relationship.

He's a real talent!

"Final payment settled."

Pei Si took the money bag and weighed it in his hand.

"If you're willing, we can continue," the old man said, tossing out another small purse.

Pei Si nodded and put away the money pouch.

…………

Pei Si's gaze was deep and unfathomable.

Such disputes over the orthodoxy must be handled with utmost care.

Pei Si took the communication talisman bestowed by his master, infused it with his magic power, and activated the talisman.

"What is it?"

Pei Si then explained the whole story to Huang Ting.

Easily access Cola Novels and enjoy reading thousands of great books, including "Starting as an Infinite Job as a Shepherd".

Huang Ting: "Don't get involved anymore. Just go to the northern frontier obediently."

Pei Si: "Yes."

…………

Qingcheng Mountain, Zhanjiao Palace and Temple.

Huang Ting sat cross-legged on a futon, a bronze mirror appearing on his chest as he silently performed calculations.

"Old man."

Huang Ting spoke in a chilling tone, his two fingers forming a sword shape as he slashed through the air, seemingly severing something.

…………

In the desolate wilderness, an abandoned compound.

Deep within the courtyard.

There stands a small, detached building.

It has a hip roof, blue bricks and gray tiles, and upturned eaves.

From a distance, the exterior walls show signs of smoke.

The dilapidated carved wooden window let in a fierce, chilly wind.

pat pat pat.

The original owner of this compound was surnamed Xing.

In the Xing family compound, there lived an unmarried young woman named Xing Xiaoxiao.

This building, which was used for weddings, was Xing Xiaoxiao's residence.

Just as she was about to be married, a great fire suddenly broke out, engulfing the bridal chamber and reducing it to ashes.

Rumors circulated that on her wedding day, which should have been a joyous occasion, this tragedy struck. Xing Xiaoxiao, dressed in her red wedding gown, was burned alive in her boudoir.

Extreme resentment! It transformed into a vengeful ghost!

This young lady of the Xing family loved to sing opera. Every morning, she would practice her singing.

However, after the fire, the neighbors could hear the singing from time to time late at night.

Even more shockingly, a woman dressed in a red wedding gown was seen wandering outside the Xing family compound.

After this incident, the surrounding neighbors moved away one after another, and over time, the place has become like this.

The embroidered pavilion that had been burned down was rebuilt overnight without anyone knowing when.

Outside the embroidered tower.

Pei Si looked up at the embroidered tower.

Standing in the middle of nowhere, this embroidered tower is anything but ordinary.

Xing Xiaoxiao must already be a swindler.

"He's really fierce," Pei Si muttered to himself.

The entire Xing family, including the groom's family, died suddenly on the way to their new home; not a single person was left alive.

The time of descent into demonhood.

Pei Si deliberately chose this time to come.

The moment I stepped inside.

Pei Si looked around.

The first floor of the embroidered building.

It was damp and cold, the windows were small and dimly lit, and a chilly wind was blowing in gusts.

The passageway was small, containing a square table, two chairs, and a long bench.

There were two rooms on the left and right, with their doors open.

Pei Si peered through the gap.

The room contained a wooden bed, a wooden box, a lampstand, and a dressing table.

Pei Si squinted slightly; these two rooms must have been where the maids lived.

Pei Si withdrew his gaze and glanced at her casually.

Ok?

I don't know when.

A long, vermilion-lacquered bench blocked Pei Si's way.

"Interesting." Pei Si summoned the official who collects and eats ghosts.

The ghost-collecting official's brow gleamed with a faint light, illuminating the vermilion-lacquered bench.

The vermilion bench turned into a phantom image.

The vermilion bench solidified once more in the next moment.

pat.

A voice came from behind.

Pei Si turned around and saw another identical vermilion lacquered bench lying behind him.

"Split?"

Pei Si summoned the official in charge of collecting and consuming Qi and said, "Lend me this."

The official who gathered and consumed Qi wiped his eyes with one hand.

Using the eyes of the Qi-gathering official who could see ghosts, Pei Si saw it clearly.

The vermilion bench was packed with people, their figures filling the space.

A large crowd of people gathered.

The maid's face was gaunt, her eyes were empty, and her face was stretched so long it almost seemed to fall to the ground.

Lamp oil was still dripping onto his face.

The scene on the bench behind me was typical.

This bench is carrying an excessive number of ghosts and appears to be exhibiting characteristics of infinite splitting.

The long sword was drawn.

Pei Si's figure disappeared from the spot.

As soon as Pei Si's figure disappeared, the vermilion bench took over the spot where Pei Si had been standing.

"Let's see if we can completely dismantle this bench!"
