Eternal Life Starts as a Hunter-Chapter 350 - 137: Yama of Ghost Street—Layers of Traps, Escaping the Game
Far away.
On Fujiang Ghost Street, beside the winding ghost path, a general store was emitting a warm light.
From the outside looking in, nothing could be seen clearly, but from the inside looking out, everything was crystal clear.
In front of the large crystal window, a beautiful woman with gray-white skin, wrapped in a black robe, was tilting her head, looking out the window.
The door of the general store was pushed open and closed repeatedly every day, attracting quite a few "customers."
The beautiful woman would just watch these customers, observing their stories.
In this room, she could see the "lives" of these people.
But to the coming and going "customers," this beautiful woman was just an indistinct mist no matter how they tried to see.
"Hello."
The newly arrived customer outside cautiously called out.
It was a tall, slender man dressed in white.
"Is anyone here?"
This was a woman dressed in black.
The woman was short and petite.
The beautiful woman inside raised her head slightly, glanced at the two of them, and their pasts flashed through her mind.
After the man and woman entered this eerie general store, they walked cautiously, observing, and then were so frightened by the "white-clad clerk" behind the counter that they didn’t dare to breathe.
The woman in black hurriedly turned around, fled to the door of the general store, and raised her hand to pull the door, but the door seemed welded shut, and she couldn’t move it no matter how hard she pulled.
The tall man in white hurriedly pulled back the woman in black, saying, "Something isn’t right here, don’t move around."
The woman in black panted as she turned her head to look at the bench by the shop window.
From her perspective, there was a mass of black fog by the window.
At that moment, there was a clattering sound behind them.
The door opened, and a cyan robe vendor with a beaming smile ran in.
The vendor, wearing a smile of a sly trader, said, "Come take a look, rouge and powder, fair to all..."
The vendor smiled while running to the back of the counter.
The two of them wandered for a while, feeling anxious and uneasy, yet not knowing what to do.
The Yin Qi began to rise, and in a place like a general store, if one did not buy anything for a long time, they would have to pay a price. 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖
At this moment, a cold woman’s voice rang out.
"Fan Chouwan, doing good from a young age, identified as a Knight, hated evil like a sworn enemy, killed three hundred and twenty-six evil people, went insane near Silver Creek but did not want to kill, so they jumped into the water to try to sober up. Entangled in sins, led to suicide."
"Xie Qing’an, Fan Chouwan’s elder brother, a Knight but adhered to a no-kill philosophy, rescued three hundred and twenty-six Good People, checked into a hotel in Tian Nan County, suddenly woke up in the middle of the night, went insane with intent to kill, but restrained themselves, hanging with a rope, and then staggeringly ran out of the hotel. Entangled in sins, led to suicide."
The tall man in white and the black-clad woman shuddered as they recalled these events.
At this moment, the mass of black fog by the window suddenly stood up.
In an instant, the two of them had some eerie paper money in their hands.
Each had three notes: one note of one cent, one of one cent, and one of four cents...
The cold voice sounded again:
"Go to the white-clad clerk to buy a black bag for one cent, go to the cyan robe vendor to get the Gray Rouge Box for four cents, and after leaving the store, quickly return along the way you came, do not linger."
The voice fell silent, and then quietly retreated to the window.
The two, like grasping onto a lifesaver, followed the voice’s instructions, quickly bought the items, and found the previously welded door open when they returned to the door.
The two looked astonished and then returned to the store, bowed deeply to the black mist, and then dared not speak further, quickly left the general store, and hurriedly retraced their steps.
The beautiful woman in black returned to her original position by the window.
She gazed out the window absentmindedly, a little lonely, not knowing whom she was missing.
This beautiful woman in black was Yan Yu.
Her attire had somehow changed from white to black.
In fact, in the past two or three years, the number of customers on Ghost Street had increased many times over, just like it had been before in Beijiang Prefecture.
These people all came with sins, yet many committed their sins on the very day they entered Ghost Street.
Yan Yu could see through people, and if someone was truly Good People, she couldn’t bear to see them die; she would silently guide them, letting them spend money to buy items from the store before they leave.
From Feng’Er, they bought their own lives, and from the vendor, they bought the cheapest rouge powder.
For these ordinary social knights, once they bought their lives back from Feng’Er, they became stable remains, capable of even harnessing a bit of Feng’Er’s power.
And the vendor’s rouge powder would help them to safely leave Ghost Street.
This was Yan Yu’s kindness.
As for the wicked, she would let Feng’Er capture and sell them without intervention.
After the departure of this pair of siblings, there was soon a commotion outside the door again.
A refined gentleman walked in, skillfully pulled out two cents, but instead of going to Feng’Er to buy a "black bag," or to the cyan robe vendor to buy "rouge and powder," he came to the counter and bought a pair of "Human Skin Handcuffs," then came to the black smoke, speaking respectfully.
"Yu Wen of the Black Lotus Sect, meeting Yama."
"Listen to what you say, it’s better to observe your actions."
"We have checked the people you’ve let pass, and they are all Good People, which means you are also kind..."
"We would prefer that the future world is controlled by someone like you, please collaborate with us."
The man named Yu Wen was very respectful.
"What’s your plan?" Yan Yu asked.
Yu Wen said, "This is just a secret agreement.
