He started as a shepherd and took on countless jobs.

Pei Si withdrew his fist, his eyes gleaming, as if a flash of lightning had passed through them.

Just when the demons were about to appear, someone came knocking on the door.

Pei Si walked into the courtyard and looked directly at the gate.

"Thump...thump...thump..."

The wind howled, and ghosts wailed.

The knocking came from below the door, and it was so forceful that it was clearly not from a child.

Pei Si, carrying a long sword, moved with the agility of a swallow, vaulting over the courtyard wall. His pupils shrank to the size of black jade as he stared straight out the door.

Half of the "person" was lying outside the door, pounding on the wooden door, which was covered in bloody handprints. At the entrance of the alley, the other half was walking slowly towards the courtyard.

"Hmph, has it come back to life?" Pei Si sneered, looking as if he had been cut in half at the waist.

It's hard to guess who was just executed by being cut in half at the waist.

Even after transforming into an evil spirit, he made no progress; he didn't even realize he was standing there.

This guy is really done for.

Pei Si stepped forward, gripped his sword with both hands, and slashed down diagonally.

The first move of Lingcang's sword technique: Flow-Severing Cleave!

Flames faintly flickered on the blade of the Crescent Moon Blade.

"Clatter!"

The moment Zhang Feng's head hit the ground, it turned to ashes.

His upper body was still covered with specks of grave soil.

Pei Si grinned: "Oh, so you're fresh out of school."

"Da da da".

The lower half of the 'person' seemed to be stimulated, and it took long strides, rushing towards Pei Si.

With a flash of light, the lower half was cleaved in two and gradually turned to ashes.

For serious criminals like Zhang Feng, the county government did not allow his family members to collect his body. Instead, the bodies were all transported to a mass grave and buried haphazardly.

In this way, the accumulation of yin energy, coupled with the special geographical layout, can lead to some irreversible consequences.

For example, zombie resurrection.

Pei Si pinched his chin with one hand. "How about we go fight Bo Ye and see if there's anything we can pick up?"

Good fortune and misfortune are intertwined.

The water ghosts wreak havoc on the Ink River, but also produce vengeful tears and malevolent mud.

Pei Si returned to his room and lit three sticks of incense.

"The good fortune outweighs the bad fortune. Let's go take a look," Pei Si said in a low voice after observing the incense's power.

…………

In the suburbs, a desolate graveyard.

As the fog rises, rows of solitary graves stand there, without even a tombstone, appearing and disappearing in the mist.

"boom!"

A withered, emaciated arm, so thin that the veins were clearly visible, broke through the ground.

"Dust to dust, ashes to ashes, life is so hard."

"Bitterness, bitterness!"

A procession moved slowly through the fog, the leader shaking a small copper bell every two or three breaths.

Midnight, a desolate graveyard, thick fog, the sound of bells ringing.

The leader was dressed in a cotton robe, wore a bamboo hat, and had a black veil covering his face, revealing only a pair of triangular eyes.

"Hey, this mass grave is interesting." The man in the straw hat stopped, and the group behind him stopped at the same time.

The man in the straw hat blinked his triangular eyes. In his field of vision was an empty grave mound, with footprints around it, indicating that something had run away.

"I never imagined I would have such good fortune!" The man in the straw hat forcibly suppressed the joy in his heart.

A chaotic graveyard with reanimated corpses is practically a feng shui treasure! Even if his own father came to ask for it, he wouldn't give it to him!

"By refining a few zombies, my combat strength can be increased again."

"The corpse driver, Zhao Renmei, said happily."

Suddenly, a figure flashed before Zhao Renmei's eyes, moving like an ape, and a goat mask came into view.

"Hiss... Roar!"

Zhao Renmei's expression changed, and she turned to look in the direction the masked man had come from.

A lame man emerged from the thick fog.

The cripple was thin, like a bamboo pole, so thin that he could be blown away by the wind. He was dressed in white, with black hair that dragged on the ground. There was a hideous scar with flesh turned upside down on his right cheek, and dried blood on his thigh. He was roaring and lunging at me.

"Damn it!" Zhao Renmei cursed under her breath, but did not turn around and run away.

"Ring ring ring".

"On my command, capture this beast!"

Zhao Renmei took three steps back and shook the Soul-Capturing Bell.

The person behind him was wearing a tall felt hat and had a yellow paper talisman attached to it. Hearing the bell, he moved straight forward and captured the lame man.

"boom!"

The tall, cylindrical corpse slave flew away in response.

Zhao Renmei's pupils contracted sharply. What a joke! You want me to refine this thing?!

It's a ghost!

Pei Si squatted on the ancient tree, a smile on his lips as he looked down.

The fish really took the bait; it turned out to be a corpse-driving man.

However, this person doesn't seem to be very strong.

[Promotion Requirements: Increased materials required for advancing to the Shepherd (Green) rank, acquisition of Mother-Child Heart-Link Jade, Medium Treasure/Spirit (3/3)]

The "Mother and Child Connected Jade" requires the pregnant woman and her unborn baby to be buried together, absorbing decades of resentment and yin energy, and then being bathed in the full moonlight before it can be formed.

Those who possess this jade can move freely in and out of yin energy, and see ghosts and mazes as nothing.

Pei Si led away the mother and child's jade pendant, which attracted the lame corpse monster to chase after them.

Zhao Renmei took off running, not caring that her straw hat was about to fall off.

Suddenly, a gust of cold wind swept in, carrying with it the laughter of a baby, "Little brother, don't go!"

Zhao Renmei suddenly stopped, his shoulders suddenly felt heavy, and he felt a pulling sensation from the dough. Looking up, he saw a white, chubby monster with no facial features pulling at his face.

"Mother, it's not him, the smell on him is wrong!" The baby monster's belly throbbed.

Suddenly, the dough burst open, tearing apart white bones. Accompanied by Zhao Renmei's wails, the infant monster ripped off Zhao Renmei's lips, stuck them to its own mouth, and picked up the Soul-Capturing Bell from the ground.

"Ring ring, ring ring."

"Dust to dust, ashes to ashes, life is so hard."

The infant monster shook the Soul-Capturing Bell, chuckled, and walked towards Pei Si's hiding place.

Pei Si tilted his head. The infant monster had a lot of room for growth. In just a short while, it was able to open its mouth and speak. The tall-hatted corpse slaves stood up and obeyed the infant monster's commands.

"This is no ordinary monster; we must strike hard!"

"Clang!"

Pei Si adjusted his straw hat, and the knife followed his movements.

"Mother, that bastard is hiding here!" the infant monster shouted excitedly, shaking the soul-capturing bell and manipulating the tall-hatted corpse slaves to surround Pei Si.

Pei Si used the Monkey Leap Step, his body as nimble as a monkey, weaving through the corpse slaves with swift movements like the wind.

In the blink of an eye, he was standing behind the infant monster.

"Don't hurt my son!" The lame female corpse was furious and lunged at Pei Si with gritted teeth, creating a strong wind in her wake that snapped all the trees in her path.

"Still a berserker." Pei Si sneered, placing the Crescent Moon on the infant monster's neck.

"Take one more step and I'll kill him!" A cold glint flashed in Pei Si's eyes as his longsword cut three-tenths of an inch into the infant monster's skin.

"No, I'll grant you anything you want." The lame female corpse stopped, looking pitiful, and continued, "If you're willing, we can get married. What's so good about this world? It's full of deceit and treachery. You and I will raise the child together, and with our strength, we can easily become kings in this chaotic graveyard!"

"Even though this child isn't your biological child, the love of a father who isn't related by blood is even greater, isn't it?"

Pei Si: "???"

No, what are you babbling about down there?

Pei Si sneered, "I was just kidding. I'd kill you even if you begged me!"

With a swift slash of the longsword, the infant monster vanished into thin air!

"Grass!"

The lame female corpse cursed angrily, her body moving like an arrow, extending her sharp claws to attack Pei Si's throat.

"Okay!"

Pei Si sheathed his sword, his eyes filled with fighting spirit. He would use this monster to test his martial arts training!

Pei Si lowered his body and tucked in his abdomen, allowing his Qi and blood to circulate through the twelve meridians and quickly converge in his palms.

"Sheathe your sword? You're arrogant!" The lame female monster's eyes flashed with rage, her long, thin black armor filled with corpse poison, as she fiercely grabbed at Pei Si.
