I Was Once a Legend

"Let's go on the left. Since they said that the village on the border is not right, it is better not to take this risk." Dong Zheng suggested.

"Also." Ren Heming nodded, and he ignited the rune paper again to determine the direction of the evil spirit. The paper dust left after the rune paper burned just pointed between the two roads.

"If you go to the left, you can catch it by going around the road." Ren Heming picked up the kettle and took two sips. The two took a break at the side of the road for a tea time, and then went on nonstop.

The left path is winding and covered with weeds, but it is relatively sparse. It can barely be seen as a stepped road. The fork and the official road on the right are left behind. The path is too narrow to allow two horses. In parallel, Dong Zheng followed Ren Heming.

There is not much communication between the two, especially Ren Heming, who may have been frowning even if he didn't even notice. He has been unable to catch evil spirits after chasing from the imperial city to the border. The pressure on him must be great Right.

The trail leads to a valley, during which the two men again determined their orientation to ensure that there was no deviation. As they progressed, the terrain on both sides gradually increased. Although the mountainous terrain was gentle and undulating, there were many tall trees growing, if something ambushed Inside, it is difficult to be discovered, and it is definitely a natural pass that is easy to defend and difficult to attack in the war era.

The whole valley has a distance. Both of them knew that this kind of terrain was not safe for them. Quickly whip, and soon their vision gradually widened, and they gradually walked out of the valley.

The two good horses beneath them already gave out exhausted gasps. They stopped and led the horses a few steps into the forest to let them eat some grass to rest.

There is no water source near here. Dong Zheng leaned on the tree to rest and suddenly heard an unusually subtle sound.

The existence of the kernel makes Dong Zheng's five senses more sensitive than ordinary people. He straightened up and looked in the direction of the sound, increasing the flow of the kernel's auditory port, so the sound was clearer and vaguely riding the wind from a distance come.

Is crying.

"Someone is crying." Dong Zheng whispered to Ren Heming, Ren Heming immediately got up, he listened carefully, and also caught some slight noise in the wind, his face became serious, "Go, look over."

The two immediately led the horse in the direction of the cry. As they stepped in, the cry became clearer. It was the cry of a girl, sobbing weakly and sadly.

They crossed the path to the other side of the road and walked up the mountain some distance, opened the branches that were hidden in front of them, and finally saw the girl who was squatting under the tree and holding her knees crying.

The girl was only eleven or twelve years old. Her big red dress was hanging on her thin body. She was crying out of breath. When she heard the sound of Dong Zheng and Ren Heming approaching, she raised her head alertly and found that someone was approaching She approached, immediately got up with her hands and feet, and turned to run.

"Wait a minute! We are not bad guys!" Ren Heming shouted at her, but the girl ran faster, she didn't even return her head, and in a blink of an eye, she burrowed into the lush wood and disappeared.

Ren Heming glanced back at Dong Zheng, and the two of them touched each other, and saw heavy and doubtful in each other's eyes.

How could such a little girl live outside in this inaccessible place?

So suspicious.

Watching the girl run away from the leaves that had been touched and had not stopped shaking, Dong Zheng decided:
