Wrong, Russians spoke the Old Russian language.

Слово о плъкоу Игоревѣ was written in Old Russian.

Old Church Slavonic is a different thing.

There is no such thing as "Old Russian". "Слово о плъкоу Игоревѣ" is written in "folk language", which then evolved to Ukrainian language.

That's what Old Russian is - the language of Kievan Rus and related dialects.
