I Was Once a Legend

Chapter 237 ○

Dong Zheng: "Go official, it's safer and faster. If we pay close attention, we might catch evil spirits without using the village."

Ren Heming agreed with his suggestion. The two walked up the official road on the right. The road was clear and unobstructed, but there were no people. The weeds and bushes next to it were lush. The wind blew the forest tips and made a rustling sound. .

Before Dong Zheng's uneasy feeling of meeting the cave, he gradually recovered. He recalled what the merchants said, and estimated how many of them were true and false, and how much they would have to do with the task they wanted to complete.

After walking for two hours, the sun has set to the west. Unlike the scorching noon, the light of the setting sun burned most of the sky. Dong Zheng heard the sound of gurgling water in front of him. Sure enough, he turned over the small hill in front. Beside the official road, a stream flows.

There was a string of small footprints on the bank of the stream, which appeared to belong to a little girl. The footprints passed from the dirt road beside the official road to the stream, and finally disappeared. Looking from the direction, the girl entered the stream.

Ren Heming stopped the horse. He looked at the other end of the stream, still a continuous mountain, and then looked at the small footprints, frowning.

"Footprints are very fresh, obviously they were left not long ago." Dong Zheng came to him and whispered.

Ren Heming took out the rune paper to determine the position of the evil spirit again, and the falling paper ash pointed to the other side of the stream, that is, the direction of the girl’s footprints.

"It went over there." Ren Heming dismounted, he took the reins and said to Dong Zheng, "Get ready to cross the river."

Dong Zheng dismounted to the stream, he crouched down and checked the series of footprints, according to the size should belong to a thin child less than ten years old.But such a big child—Dong Zheng looked towards the turbulent stream that was deep in his thighs—can he pass through such deep water?

Ren Heming led the horse, one foot first stepped into the water, the stream was probably produced by the melting snow of the mountains, it was extremely cold and even biting, and the sole of the foot stepped on the smooth rocky beach. Ren Heming took a step carefully, without looking back Dong Zheng shouted: "Be careful! The river bottom is too slippery!"

The horse followed him with a rein. Perhaps the water was too cold and too deep. The brown horses were reluctant to go into the water at first. After being drunk a few times by Ren Heming, he flung his tail and followed behind.

The shoe is very slippery on the rocky beach. Ren Heming kept his balance while paying attention to the horse's hard work. The rapid flow of the river made it difficult to control the direction.

Ren Heming walked to the middle of the stream, which was the deepest and most urgent place in the water. He took a deep breath and took great care every step of falling. Dong Zheng was waiting on the shore, seeing Ren Heming's body shaking in the water, he couldn't help but He pinched sweat.

However, at this moment, there seemed to be something that they could not see suddenly passed by, and the horse behind Ren Heming was suddenly frightened, and when he lifted his front hooves, he would turn around and run away.No one expected that such a situation would happen. Ren Heming was concentrating on his feet physically and mentally, being dragged by the force from the reins in his hands. He was shaken violently with an unstable figure, and his feet slipped while losing his balance. The sound of the whole person fell into the water.

"Brother!"

Dong Zheng shouted that the water that did not reach the thighs would drown a person who fell down in the stream. In a blink of an eye, Ren Heming was washed away by the rushing stream five or six meters away, and the horse finally failed to stabilize. Shaped, whistling fell into the water, mournfully washed away behind Ren Heming.

Ren Heming's posture to fall into the water is not very good. He thumped twice but the bottom of the river was too smooth and could not stand. He could only struggle to get his head out of the water. According to his fluttering posture, Dong Zheng saw that he was not water-based It's good.

Ren Heming floated up and down in the water. At the moment when his head was above the water, he tried to turn his head to look at Dong Zheng and shouted, "Lao Qi!"

"Maintain balance! Don't be so fast!" Dong Zheng yelled at him, and Ren Heming had reached ten meters away in just a few breaths. At this moment, Dong Zheng decided:
