Chapter 189: Fighting

There was really nothing outside.

Lin Jue closed the door and walked back.

When he came back, the Little Xiao Shimei had also woken up.

"Shi... elder brother..."

"It's okay, I just heard a little movement, went out to see, maybe a wild beast or some bird." Lin Jue said truthfully, thought for a while, and added, "Don't be afraid! Even if that Green Seedling God comes, I will argue with it, and see if it has a face to do such things as a god!"

"..."

The Little Xiao Shimei stared at him blankly, and it took a long time before she nodded:

"Okay."

The two sat against the wall and closed their eyes to continue sleeping.

It had rained a bit in the past two days, and now it seemed that the temperature had entered autumn, and it was a bit cold at night.

The wind rose outside again.

But apart from the sound of the wind, there was no movement at all.

It was already midnight, Lin Jue was already sleeping in a daze, and after waking up and going out to see just now, he was slightly awake, but he couldn't hide his physical and mental fatigue.

He had been in this temple for several days.

Waiting for a rabbit by a tree stump is not an easy thing.

Sleeping in this temple is not a comfortable thing, not only without bedding and pillows, but even lying down is not possible, you have to sit against the wall, eat poorly and sleep poorly, which is very exhausting.

Slowly, sleepiness came again.

Lin Jue didn't deliberately resist, just left a point of vigilance, and let it take its course.

There was a premonition in his heart—

Maybe that Green Seedling God will come tonight.

Or it's already outside.

If this is true, it just shows the vigilance of the Green Seedling God, so he must not act rashly again. If he doesn't sleep, maybe it won't approach all night.

I don't know when, in a half-dream and half-awake state, he vaguely heard some blurred movement, and then there was a creak.

Suddenly a feeling of palpitation.

Lin Jue opened his eyes immediately.

At this time, an eternal lamp was still lit in the temple, and the dim lamp light spilled over the entire stone cave, but he saw the room door open, and the Xiao Shimei beside him was gone.

There was a mess of footsteps outside.

"Qingyao!"

Lin Jue shouted immediately, and a bean appeared in his hand.

No sound came back from outside.

Lin Jue remained vigilant and walked to the door, just about to go to the door to check, when he saw a figure rush in.

But it was not his own Xiao Shimei, but a monster.

The first thing that came into view was a long and curved white-haired neck, with a crane head on top, a sharp and bright red crane beak, the top of the head was black like ink, and the body below was like a woman and like a crane, wearing an elegant and gorgeous dress, and the legs and feet could not be seen, but the figure was very good.

Actually a crane woman?

The crane woman turned her head, two eyes black like beans, staring straight at him.

That Green Seedling God is not good at fighting, so it invited other monsters?

Lin Jue's expression condensed, and the bean in his hand changed instantly, turning into an ancient long sword, which he held in his hand.

"What monster are you?"

But he didn't expect the crane woman to raise her hand, and she also held a straight crane feather more than three feet long in her hand, like a knife or sword.

"Take your life!"

The crane woman opened her mouth and made a floating sound, as if it came from afar and as if she was covering her mouth and speaking nearby, which could not be heard clearly, and could only roughly understand the meaning.

Lin Jue was worried about the Xiao Shimei who went out, and immediately asked: "Are you the Green Seedling God? What is your intention here?"

"Go die!"

"Huh?"

It seems there is nothing more to say.

The eyes of the two sides met, and they rushed toward each other immediately.

Although the one in front of him is a monster, Lin Jue had long understood the truth that monsters are also afraid of swords, chickens and ducks grow no matter how big, and they can bleed if their necks are cut, plus he was worried about the Xiao Shimei, so his momentum was very fierce. After taking two steps forward, he jumped up and gave a "fairy splitting the mountain" toward the monster's head, splitting down with force.

Clang!

The crane woman easily raised her sword to block it.

Let's assume that what she held in her hand was a sword.

Lin Jue landed on both feet, immediately shook his hand, and the sword turned into flowers. Although it looked good, it also brewed a light and sharp splitting sword, wanting to split toward her neck while the crane woman's sword had not yet fallen.

Let's bleed this beast first!

But he didn't expect the crane woman's sword-withdrawing action to be equally fast, and she blocked it again with a clang!

It's just that the crane woman's hand shook.

Lin Jue immediately knew that the crane woman's strength was not as good as his.

The opportunity must not be missed!

It just so happened that his first sword was the "fairy splitting the mountain" in the Qingdan sword, this sword if the skill is not enough, it is bluffing, if the skill is enough, it is very easy to gain the upper hand in momentum.

Taking advantage of the momentum, he flicked his sword again, slashing toward the Crane Woman's feet. He hadn't expected the Crane Woman to be so agile; she simply lifted her foot to dodge, then seized the opportunity to point her sword toward his head.

One attacked below, one attacked above, and both avoided each other first.

The two sides exchanged swords several times in the blink of an eye!

The crane woman couldn't help but retreat to the door.

But she didn't fall into a disadvantage, instead, she saw in a few moves that although the opponent's strength was very strong, his sword technique was not as good as hers, and if they really fought with swords, she had a better chance of winning.

"Fellow heroes, please go out and find my Xiao Shimei for me!"

Lin Jue took a gap and sprinkled a few beans outside. He didn't expect that just by being distracted, the crane woman's sword swept over.

Retreating and pulling in his stomach, he was still scratched by the long sword on his clothes.

Rip!

This straight crane feather was really like a knife or sword, extremely sharp, and it tore his clothes instantly.

Before Lin Jue could react, the crane woman made another sword backhand.

"Clang!"

Dangerously, he blocked it.

But the momentum he had gathered had already gone half.

Then the two long swords collided, wiping left and right several times, as if competing for strength.

The crane woman's strength was not as good as Lin Jue's, and seeing that the crane feather-like sword in her hand was about to be pressed down, she borrowed the force of Lin Jue's waving long sword, and moved this force from the crane feather to herself, and at the same time exerted force instantly, flashing to the side.

The stone cave was narrow, and she was extremely light.

Just borrowing the force to take a step, she left Lin Jue's long sword's sweeping range, and in another step, she had already stepped on the wall, borrowed the reaction force to fold back, and split a sword toward Lin Jue's head.

It was really light and agile like a crane.

And this move looked like a variation of the "fairy splitting the mountain" that Lin Jue used just now.

Lin Jue's reaction was also fast, probing his sword upward, "jade belt blocking the waist," which was intercepting the crane woman's body.

You slash my head, I stab your heart.

If one is not careful, it is easy to lose both sides.

The crane woman really didn't want to be like this, so she had to turn the splitting sword into a blocking sword, and blocked Lin Jue's probing long sword.

But in this way, half of Lin Jue's momentum was completely worn away, and the crane woman gradually regained the upper hand with her light body and sword moves.

The stone cave temple suddenly hit countless fine clanging sounds, and even connected into a piece.

This crane woman's offensive was so sharp that Lin Jue couldn't breathe, so he had to concentrate on blocking and dismantling moves. In his haste, he didn't even have time to use magic, and the eternal lamp, which was the only light source in the temple, was blown by the wind fanned by the two people's fighting, making it difficult to even catch the shadow.

Several times he wanted to touch the beans in his pocket, but before he could touch them, his hand was forced to be withdrawn again.

For a while, he had to fight with her with a sword.

It was really impossible to be distracted at all.

It seemed like a long time had passed, the weapons collided dozens of times, and they dodged and moved several times, but thinking carefully, it was only a few breaths.

"Clang!"

The crane woman stepped up to stab the sword, Lin Jue dodged sideways, and blocked her sword with his sword again, exerted a little force, and pushed it away. Lin Jue finally seized the opportunity, and while the two sides were close, he opened his mouth and spat toward her.

A mouthful of fierce flames surged out!

He didn't expect this crane woman to be really agile, and she borrowed his force of pushing the sword, retreated backward, and quickly fell to the ground sideways, actually avoiding this flame by falling to the ground.

Falling to the ground was not smooth, but rolling on the spot.

Rolling a few times, she borrowed the force of rolling, smashed the hand holding the sword on the ground, and the whole body was like a tumbler that had just fallen, and stood up again.

Just standing firm, she saw the opponent fly up, and a sword stabbed toward her chest.

The crane woman also dodged sideways, also blocked with a sword, pushed hard again, and also turned her head and spat.

"Puff!"

Lin Jue's eyes shrank suddenly.

Only to see a puff of black gas rushing toward his face.

He didn't have the body method of the crane woman.

Fortunately, the two sides were very close, and his strength had the upper hand. Lin Jue made a decisive decision, not only was he not pushed back by the crane woman, but he leaned forward and knocked her away with all his might.

"Puff!"

The crane woman lost her accuracy because of the collision, and the gas in her abdomen was also sprayed out by the collision. A large puff of black gas hit the half god statue of the Green Seedling God, and moved from the god statue to the corner of the wall, sweeping out a large area.

The clothes on the god statue and the colored cloth on the beams were corroded, constantly emitting black smoke.

After Lin Jue stood firm, he retreated instinctively.

But he already felt something wrong in his heart.

While puzzled, he saw the crane woman fly up again, and the crane feather-like knife and sword in her hand chased him relentlessly with the blessing of her agile body method.

The body is like a startled swan, the sword is like a soul-chasing person who never leaves.

Lin Jue's brows frowned tighter.

Dodging this sword sideways, he chanted a short spell in his mouth, and pointed his hand at the same time.

Dragon Transformation Trick!

The knife and sword in the crane woman's hand turned into two venomous snakes instantly, one left and one right, and even turned their heads to bite her.

The crane woman was shocked, but she was not scared, nor did she throw away the sword, but when she was puzzled, she shook the crane feather-like knife and sword in her hand, changed it back to its original appearance, quietly changed the direction of her feet, jumped onto the god platform beside her, borrowed the height to stab a more tricky sword toward Lin Jue's cheek, exploring the sea to slaughter the dragon.

Lin Jue had thoughts in his heart, so his reaction was slow, even if he tried his best to turn his head, he only saw the sword edge pass in front of him, leaving a blood line on his forehead.

At this time, the two sides were closer.

When Lin Jue turned his head, he happened to see the crane woman's body close at hand. If he spat a breath or fire, this crane woman would definitely be difficult to hide, or maybe this was her method of exchanging injury for injury—Lin Jue's fire and breath might not be able to kill her on the spot, and she also had the possibility of piercing Lin Jue's head with this sword, and it was unclear who was more cost-effective, anyway, it was extremely dangerous.

Lin Jue really took a breath, but didn't spit it toward the crane woman, but spat it toward the sword in her hand.

"Whoosh..."

A breath was like a spring breeze.

After the life-fighting sword move missed, the two sides retreated to the wall, and the other retreated to the god platform, hiding behind the half god statue of the Green Seedling God.

At this time, both sides felt something wrong.

Lin Jue had a few flying sword beans in his hand as insurance, but he didn't act rashly, but thought carefully about the crane woman's body method and sword moves.

The crane woman looked down at the long sword, seeing a few brilliant wild flowers blooming on the sword body, and also fell into thought.

"Are you a human or a ghost?"

"Take your life..."

The voice was floating and blurred.

"Are you Xiao Shimei?"

"I killed... you..."

The voice became more and more blurred, and it was even harder to hear.

Lin Jue held his breath, and after a while, he saw the crane woman's figure gradually becoming blurred.

After becoming completely invisible, it slowly became clear again.

It actually became the appearance of the Little Xiao Shimei.

And what kind of crane feather-like weapon was in her hand? It was clearly the long sword he gave her.

Turning his head to look again—

What kind of black smoke was the clothes on the god statue and the colored cloth on the beams emitting? It was clearly burning fire, and it hadn't gone out until now.

And the five bean soldiers he threw out to find the Xiao Shimei were standing at the door, staring at the two of them without moving.

"So that's how it is..."

Lin Jue was shocked, and was actually fascinated by this thing.

Then he touched the sword wound on his forehead.

"Third Shixiong! Why is it you?"

Xiao Shimei held the sword and ran toward him immediately.

If it weren't for this "Third Shixiong," it would really give him a fright.

This Xiao Shimei's sword technique is better than his.

It is worthy of being the one who practices sword with painstaking effort every day.

Lin Jue didn't expect that, unknowingly, this Little Xiao Shimei was so powerful, and in the case of not using magic, he was almost stabbed to death by her several times.

And he was still considered good, if it were other Daoist priests who hadn't learned sword technique, even if their cultivation was higher, if they were approached by her, they would have died under her sword long ago.

"Third Shixiong! Are you okay?"

"This is not the time to think about this! Quick! That Green Seedling God must be outside, and it shouldn't have gone far. Fuyao is hiding outside, let's go out and settle the account with it!"

Lin Jue walked out with his sword immediately.
