Quick Wear: I am the shopkeeper at the Merit Pawn Shop

Chapter 149 The Cannon Fodder in the Ancient Temple 1

Shen Mo handed the two little ones to Shen Chuan.

On the surface, he traveled all over the world to travel, but in fact he set up an anti-fraud association.

Specializes in investigating fraud cases.

In recent years, Shen Mo has also published several books on anti-fraud, aiming to help people recognize what real fraud is and popularize common scammers' methods.

Rescued countless people from being deceived.

As for Shen Chuan, he felt particularly regretful because he missed Shen Mo's childhood.

Now that I have two little ones, I hold them in my arms and show them off every day.

His fellow anglers were so angry that they blocked him.

When Shen Chuan was 100 years old, Shen Mo sent him off. At that time, Shen Mo was also 84 years old and had many children and grandchildren. Shen Mo immediately closed his eyes and left this world.

"Ding Dong, congratulations to the shopkeeper for completing the mission. The mission merit reward is being calculated..." Shen Mo heard the mechanical prompt sound.

"Boss, we have received an urgent mission. We are about to go to the next world."

"What's going on?" Shen Mo felt dizzy before his soul returned.

When he opened his eyes, Shen Mo found himself lying on an antique bed.

The bed was the only room that looked relatively intact. The papers pasted on the window frames were fluttering in the night wind. The oil lamp on the table had gone out. The moonlight shone into the room through the window gap, and spider webs could be seen hanging all over the walls.

Is this a haunted house?

"Fat Cat, what's going on?"

He subconsciously asked the system.

"I'm sorry, boss. We've been conscripted this time." Fat Cat sounded apologetic.

"What do you mean? Explain it to me clearly."

"You are not the protagonist of this mission. We have a big boss to lead us. The big boss needs a collaborator. If no one responds, the big boss will conscript a man."

Shen Mo almost vomited blood.

"Tell me what kind of mission this is?" Shen Mo felt that a mission that no one wanted would be a good one. It must be very difficult.

No wonder successive shopkeepers said the system was unreliable. Isn’t it unreliable?

"Shopkeeper, it's not without benefits to be led by a big boss. If you can please him, he'll let you, a rookie shopkeeper, win easily in future missions." Rabbit interrupted.

"Go away, if it's so easy to take on, why hasn't anyone taken on this mission, and why hasn't anyone sent their memories over?"

"Boss, this old Taoist doesn't have any memories this time. He is the temple keeper of this ancient temple. Let me tell you roughly about your mission!"

As Fat Cat continued to talk, Shen Mo roughly understood the whole story.

There is an ancient temple on the mountain, and an old Taoist priest lives in the temple.

The ancient temple is connected to an underground palace, where a princess is sleeping. If she practices for another year, she will be able to come back to life and be reborn like a phoenix rising from the ashes.

However, God played a joke on her. At the critical moment of reshaping her body, a group of people entered the ancient temple.

A man named Chu Tianao, with a group of younger brothers, came here for adventure and broke into the underground palace.

He didn't know where he found the method to refine the drought demon, but when he saw that the princess's body had not rotted after hundreds of years, he refined the princess into a drought demon.

But in fact, the princess already had intelligence. After she was refined into a drought demon, all her behavior was controlled by Chu Tianao. She had no way of disobeying his orders. She was just a killing tool that only knew how to obey orders.

The only thing that makes her different from ordinary drought demons is her beautiful face.

As for Chu Tianao, he even did not let Hanba go, and often used the excuse of wanting to know more about Hanba's structure to get to know her in depth.

The princess, who was so intelligent, was almost sickened to death.

On the surface, Chu Tianao is a gentleman, the light of righteousness, but secretly, he lets Hanba deal with his opponents.

In the end, he put all the blame on Hanba, saying that Hanba was an evil demon and that he had to slay the demon. He united all the forces to eradicate Hanba together.

In fact, at that time the princess had cultivated powerful mental power, and she was able to break free from Chu Tianao's control.

However, Chu Tianao was unwilling to let the princess get rid of him, so he used this trick against the princess.

The princess was filled with hatred after her death. She had accumulated countless merits in her previous life, so she asked a big man from a higher plane to do this task.

The current situation is that the previous three taskers have failed, and this time the fourth tasker is invited.

His mission is to invite the big boss to come to the world. He must wait until the princess' body transforms into a living person, and then his mission will be half successful.

"Are you saying that all these taskers failed in the early stages?"

"Yes, the nearest successful tasker is three minutes away from the princess's physical transformation. And your mission is to stop Chu Aotian from entering the temple."

The fat cat waved his claws, feeling that Shen Mo's situation was not good this time.

After all, Shen Mo's previous missions were all in the ordinary world, and he had never come to such a plane to take on such a mission.

To be honest, Shen Mo was unlucky as he was conscripted by a tasker from a higher plane. Now it all depends on Shen Mo's luck.

"I want to know how much time I have to prepare? Given Chu Tianao's identity, how long will it take him to come to the temple? And what kind of skills do I have? This is not an ordinary plane, so logically I should be able to practice, right?"

Shen Mo was captured and brought here, but he knew nothing, so he had to find Fat Cat to get things done.

"You can practice, but the old Taoist doesn't have any powerful skills. He can only drive away small ghosts. This plane is a low-level modern fantasy plane. It is mainly based on families and factions. The hero Chu Aotian is the good-for-nothing young master of the Chu family. He likes adventures, and it is during the adventures that he gets an opportunity, which makes him become more and more powerful in the later period. As for what the opportunity is, we don't know. Now there are still three days before Chu Aotian comes."

Shen Mo was about to curse. It was a waste of time for him to practice in three days.

No, he has a skill space, but I don’t know if there are any skills in the skill space.

Shen Mo entered the skill space, but only heard Fat Cat say: "Boss, our pawnshop has not been upgraded yet, so we don't have any high-level plane skills."

"Didn't you tell me last time that I could upgrade the pawn shop if I completed the fat man's mission?"

"The owner has to return to the pawnshop to upgrade. There is no way to upgrade now." Fat Cat was helpless about this.

Now that they have upgraded, they will not be conscripted into the army. After all, the merit points that this boss can pay now are only enough to capture a man from a low-level plane. In the final analysis, it is the shopkeeper who is unlucky.

"Well, then can you tell me how the three unlucky taskers before him stopped Chu Aotian?" Shen Mo felt that he should learn lessons from his failure so that he wouldn't waste too much time trying.

"The first tasker lit a scent on those people."

"Failed?"

"Failed." Fat Cat sighed.

Shen Mo already had an idea in his mind. This meant that these people had something that could remove the aphrodisiac incense, or maybe due to their physique, the aphrodisiac incense was too low-end.

"The second tasker moved the princess from the underground palace and set traps all around the temple."

"Failed?"

"Yeah, it's faster than the second missioner found it."

Shen Mo frowned. Based on his experience in handling cases in his previous life, those people definitely knew that there was an underground palace here, and their clear target was the princess.
