What do you mean "you need to farm a lot of souls"? Why? If you just kill the stone knights (which are rather easy to kill), you can get some good souls pretty quickly if you want.

In any case, I don't think you are supposed to stick around in Darkroot Garden too long. There's some good items there, but they are hard to get.

Kill the gargoyles and ring the first bell yet? If not, do that? If yes, you are supposed to go back to the bridge where the Red Drake is, near where you first met Solaire. There's a door there you should take to progress.
