Spending one thousand taels to buy his life is not a loss no matter how you look at it, not to mention that he got something for nothing.

After finishing his words, Fang Si did not wait for Liu Huolong to respond, but clapped his hands, signaling everyone to gather together.

"I've said almost everything I wanted to say earlier. Now, those who want to leave can leave, and those who want to stay, please step forward and tell me your choice."

After hearing Fang Si's words, no one left. Obviously, everyone was confident in their own methods.

Seeing this, Fang Si smiled and asked everyone another question.

"Since you all won't leave, I'll add one more condition.

If you are a person with special abilities, take a step forward and your reward will be doubled that of an ordinary person."

As soon as Fang Sheng finished speaking, the young Taoist frowned and took a step forward. Liu Huolong took a step forward with a look of joy on his face, and the young man and woman in the same attire also took a step forward.

Even many people who looked like passersby took a step forward.

Seeing this, Fang Si had an idea in his mind.

According to the information provided by Li Ziwen, although there are now many talented people like mushrooms after a rain, they are still far from being common.

Strictly speaking, it is one in a million.

Therefore, it is certainly impossible that all the people in front of us are extraordinary people.

However, Fang Si did not drive them away directly, but asked them one by one.

After all, who knows, there might really be some extraordinary people here?

Fang Si first glanced at the man who looked like an ordinary passerby and asked.

"What are your abilities?"

The man puffed out his chest and said proudly.

“I can eat it!”

Fang Si was silent for a while.

"What to eat?"

"Have a meal!"

Fang Si looked at the second person expressionlessly and asked.

"What about you?"

"I'm strong!"

Fang Si glanced at him, then pointed at the three big men standing on the other side with axes on their hips.

"Can you pick up all three of them?"

Although these three men did not look very strong, Fang Si could see from their sharp eyes that their muscles were very strong. Therefore, the three of them weighed at least 600 kilograms in total.

The man who said he was strong immediately became powerless when he saw the three big men opposite looking at him.

Seeing this, Fang Si also understood.

Suddenly, his face darkened.

"Listen carefully, although people with special abilities can get twice as much money, it's not that easy to get. If you want to cheat me and get this money, I advise you to give up this idea as soon as possible.

Now that I've said this, anyone who doesn't meet my standards, please step back. I don't want to repeat myself a second time."

As Fang Si finished speaking, half of the people who were originally standing in front of him retreated in unison. However, even if half of them retreated, there were still quite a few left.

Seeing this, Fang Si added another one.

"Those with all visible abilities, such as great strength, speed, vision, and the ability to eat a lot, should stand on the left side."

As Fang Si finished speaking, a group of people stood over in unison. Even the man and woman who were dressed the same way were left with only the woman standing there.

Now the only ones standing in front of Fang Si were the young Taoist priest, Liu Huolong, and the woman who was dressed the same as the young man.

Seeing this, Fang Si said to them.

"Tell me, what are your respective abilities?"

As Fang Sheng finished speaking, Liu Huolong was the first to step forward and said.

"I can breathe fire."

When Fang Si heard Liu Huolong say that he could breathe fire, he looked at him for a second, but just a glance.

The ability to spit fire is very strong, but it also depends on where and when. If it is used to deal with physical objects, it is undoubtedly suitable, but for intangible objects like Shadow Mandrill, Fang Si is not sure whether Liu Huolong's ability to spit fire is useful.

Therefore, Fang Si nodded.

"Yeah, I get it, what about you guys?"

As he spoke, Fang Si looked at the Taoist priest and the woman again.

The Taoist priest and the woman looked at each other, then took a step forward.

"Then I will tell you first. I am Zhou Yishan, my Taoist name is Ziyang, and my ability is to exorcise evil spirits."

Hearing Zhou Yishan's words, Fang Si's eyes suddenly lit up and he asked hurriedly.

"Exorcism? How to exorcise evil spirits? Specifically?"

"Uh..." Zhou Yishan scratched his head and said a little embarrassedly, "Actually, my ability is to add a layer of light that can drive away evil spirits to weapons, like this."

As he spoke, Zhou Yishan took off the peach wood sword from his back. As he stretched out his hand and slid it across the peach wood sword, the entire peach wood sword suddenly began to shine with golden light.

Seeing this, Fang Si became more interested and asked Zhou Yishan.

"Have you ever tried using this ability to deal with incorporeal monsters? Like ghosts?"

Zhou Yishan shook his head, indicating that he had never encountered a ghost.

Seeing this, Fang Si was not disappointed, but asked the last woman again.

"What about you? What are your abilities?"

The woman clasped her fists towards Fang Si and said.

"Your Excellency, my name is Sun Ling. I come from the Lingfeng Sect in Qingshan County. My ability is to sense everything within a five-meter radius around me."

At first glance, it seemed like a pretty useless ability, but Fang Si still keenly grasped the key point of her words.

Suddenly, Fang Si looked at her with a strange look and repeated what she said.

"You said you can sense everything within five meters around you. Can you sense anything on me?"

Sun Ling nodded, hesitated for a moment, and then spoke with a trembling voice.

"Sir, your shadow..."

"Okay." Fang Si interrupted her before she could finish.

Now, he also planned to tell these people about Shadow Xiao, so naturally he would not let Sun Ling tell them about his situation.

After all, if these people were scared away, where would he find anyone else?

Now Fang Si has an idea of ​​the abilities of these three people, and fortunately, these three people's abilities may really be able to deal with Shadow Goblin.

Especially, the ability of Taoist Zi Yang.

Therefore, Fang Si did not hesitate and started to make arrangements.

"You don't have to go back tonight. Just have dinner in the county government office. Wait outside the courtyard in front of the hall tonight. Come in when I let you in.

As for the three of you, stay with me in the courtyard."

After saying that, just when everyone was about to go out to eat, Fang Si left Sun Ling's senior brother, the man wearing the same clothes as her, alone.

Sun Hua was a little confused when he saw that he was left behind, but soon, as Fang Si explained, he understood what Fang Si meant.

However, Sun Hua frowned throughout Fang Si's narration.

Seeing Sun Hua like this, Fang Si didn't care. He just said it lightly.

"When the time comes, I believe you will make the right choice."

Sun Hua was silent for a moment, then nodded and left with everyone.

Chapter 515 The Eve of Midnight

With Sun Hua's departure, Fang Si was naturally the only one left in the courtyard.

He looked at Sun Hua who was leaving and narrowed his eyes slightly.

"I have already arranged everything that can be arranged. I just don't know if these strange people are capable of dealing with this kind of ghost thing."

Fang Si sighed. In fact, as an ordinary person, he was really powerless when facing such things. Moreover, if his original body did not have a certain identity, he would not even be able to use the tiger's skin.

And now, it is the limit of what he can do.

"Next, it depends on whether we can defeat this Shadow Mandrill in one fell swoop tonight."

As Fang Si was thinking, the sky quickly darkened.

As evening approached, everyone returned to the yard one after another.

At this time in the yard, Fang Si had placed a circle of torches on the nearby walls to ensure that there was light in the yard.

At this time, everyone was a little confused.

Because Fang Si had not explained the details to them before, they did not know that there was a shadow goblin on Fang Si's body. They just thought that Fang Si asked them to come back to discuss the plan to deal with the shadow goblin again.

As for being separated and not allowed to enter the yard, they thought that Fang Si wanted to say something to Yi Shi alone.

Of course, Fang Si naturally had his own considerations for asking them to guard outside the yard.

First, if they can injure Shadow Mandrill, they can let these people try to stop Shadow Mandrill. Second, if they can't deal with Shadow Mandrill, they can let these people act as consumables and risk their lives to delay Shadow Mandrill.

At this time, unlike everyone else who was at a loss, Sun Hua, who was also arranged outside by Fang Si, had a gloomy expression.

Fang Si assigned him a difficult task, but it was more of a choice than a task.

Just now, Fang Si left him alone and didn't say much. He just told him that if Fang Si didn't come out at Chou time tonight, he should find a way to bring Li Ziwen over.

Moreover, Fang Si was considerate enough to tell him where Li Ziwen lived, and also told him about the defense situation there.

The real reason why his face was gloomy was that Fang Si did not tell him to do so. He just said that if they did not come out at Chou Shi, the situation would get out of control.

In that situation, Sun Ling, as a strange warrior with no attacking ability, would be the most likely to get into trouble.

Therefore, if he didn't want to save Sun Ling, Fang Si said it didn't matter whether he went or not.

Indeed, Fang Si's words were very explicit, almost telling Sun Hua directly that if he did not find a way to get the county magistrate over, the safety of his junior sister could not be guaranteed.

But if he brought the county magistrate over, he would offend the county magistrate.

In this situation, any fool would know that the county magistrate would definitely not be willing to intervene, otherwise Fang Si would not have made such a stupid move.

At the beginning, after being told of this plan by Fang Si, Sun Hua's reaction was of course to take his junior sister Sun Ling and leave directly, but before he could say anything, Fang Si stopped him with a light remark.

Thinking of that scene, Sun Hua's eyes were filled with anger as if they were about to spit fire.

Speaking of which, Fang Si didn't say anything at that time. He just patted Sun Hua on the shoulder and told him.

"I know you want to take this little girl away with you, but you'd better not do that.

Now that you've entered, it won't be easy to leave. I believe you know how the imperial court treats foreigners now. If you don't want your Lingfeng Sect to fail in Qingshan County, you should think carefully."

As soon as these words were spoken, it was like hitting the snake at its most vulnerable part, which immediately killed half of Sun Hua's temper.

In the end, Sun Hua stood at the gate of the courtyard for a long time feeling frustrated.

In the end, he could only sigh helplessly and began to think about how he would bring the county magistrate over if something really went wrong.

At this time in the courtyard, Fang Si asked Zhou Yishan.

"Young Taoist Priest Ziyang, can your exorcist aura now cover an entire person?"

Zhou Yishan thought about it and then nodded.

"Master Fang, don't worry. I've already reached the third step of my skill. Now, I can easily cover up one and a half people, let alone one."

Fang Si nodded. Although he didn't understand what a strange man who could take three steps meant, he didn't care about his strange metaphor and just gave instructions.

"I asked you to come this time to help me kill the Shadow Mandrill, but there's one thing I didn't tell you. If my guess is correct, there should be a seriously injured Shadow Mandrill lurking on my body, no, in my shadow."

After hearing Fang Si's words, Zhou Yishan and Liu Huolong's expressions changed.
