said, \"I’ve heard a little about it, there are some mysterious people in the Central Plains, these people are called the Wanderers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These Wanderers can do many unbelievable things, controlling beasts or demon beasts to spy is something only they can do.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The elder told me that the reason these Wanderers have such power is because they... are people destined to die but didn’t.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They have all been to the Ghost Realm and encountered ghosts, they should have died, but for unimaginable unknown reasons, they haven’t died yet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their divine souls have mutated, their personalities have become extremely peculiar, they are actually already dead, yet they can still walk and exist in a human way... this is what is called the Wanderers.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the dimly lit Black Market, the wheels of an ox cart rumbled as new live goods were brought in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having learned from previous lessons, this time the brokers diligently searched the belongings of the live goods, ensuring no one could easily approach them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Feng’Er leaned against the cold iron bars, sitting on dry straw, her eyes meeting the heavy black fabric.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She stared coldly into the distance, and after training, she no longer spoke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She didn’t even know where this was...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She once wanted to say she was a good friend of Elder Li’s wife from Shanbao County, that if they took her there, they’d surely get a reward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But she saw another woman, who claimed she was a relative of some important person, and as a result... that woman was brutally whipped many times.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The brokers said, live goods... must have the awareness of live goods, don’t speak recklessly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Feng’Er was still unwilling, she shouted loudly, and then... she too was lashed over and over until she learned to keep quiet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The brokers said, there are many who falsely claim connections, better behave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Feng’Er was transported to the Black Market.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But she didn’t know which Black Market this was.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had never even been to a Black Market.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All she knew was that people would occasionally come by, lightly lift a corner, and look inside as if inspecting goods.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A few days later, the little girl beside her was taken away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A few more days passed, two other people were taken away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But no one chose her, perhaps because her resentment was too strong, or maybe because there wasn’t a trace of life in her eyes...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Time passed day by day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Winter came to an end, and a pale snow suddenly swept over this land again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Feng’Er began to cough heavily, she fell ill...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She kneeled on the straw, coughing up blood, yet her face remained expressionless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The brokers, afraid she would infect others, decided to move her out, to transfer her outside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But when the brokers pulled back the heavy black cloth early one morning, they found that the woman, devoid of any vitality, was already dead, so they hired a miscellaneous task worker to drag her outside and bury her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The worker took the money, but found it troublesome, so he wrapped her in a straw mat, stuffed her into a sack with stones, and under the cover of night, threw her into the lake, then turned away and left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sack sank... sank... descending into endless darkness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet the dense, almost tangible resentment enveloped a transparent human form, rising upwards with it...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When it broke through the lake’s surface, a powerful suction came from deep within Central City, pulling the human form towards it...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the process, the form was torn apart, becoming strange, deformed... eerie, no longer human.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As this transparent, bizarre shape entered, Central City’s original guardroom seemed to reach some extreme, and suddenly... was \"detonated.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The dim, dark bed began to decay, the stench of corpses spreading everywhere, the bed started to bulge from below, as if something bizarre was pressing against the bedboard...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the snowy night, the terrifying sound of doors crashing echoed again, continuously, without stopping...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a long time, a long time...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Until midnight, a broker yawned as he walked by from a distance, he had just returned from playing by Silver Creek, now heading back to sleep.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly... a sharp, eerie door-opening sound rang in his ears.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The broker thought it was an auditory illusion, so he ignored it, cursed, and continued walking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a couple of steps, his neck suddenly twisted, then creaked as it moved, his eyes bulged out, and he fell onto the snow, dead...\u003C\u002Fp>",754,"2026-06-06T05:24:25.077Z",1,"novelbin.me","a4362711cbcb9eeb81af9a3940f3eb3668610571d2c37ed1f4b0d8407227f027","eternal-life-starts-as-a-hunter-chapter-139","eternal-life-starts-as-a-hunter-chapter-137",563,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Feternal-life-starts-as-a-hunter-cover.jpg"]
