I'm not a drama god

When Chen Ling heard this, a hint of surprise flashed across her eyes...

Only a dozen hours had passed since he had his showdown with Hongxiu. Before that, Hongxiu had been in a state of confusion and indecision. How come she suddenly became so determined?

What exactly happened this night?

Chen Ling didn't ask any more questions. No matter what Hongxiu had experienced, as long as she made this choice in the end, it was enough.

"Tell me what I should do." Hongxiu spoke again.

Chen Ling answered in a low voice while driving, "The reason why we are in this situation is because the Silver King used the power of [Borrowed Moon] to replace our pasts with another person... The one who replaced me should be an ordinary person, and the one who replaced you should be the original Knight of the Church."

"Exchange the past... Then why haven't the names in our memories been replaced?"

There is Tan Xin in Hongxiu's memory, and there is also Tan Xin in [Rotten Tongue]. The same name represents different people, which makes her feel torn.

"As far as I understand, this replacement is like a transplant. The core memories and interpersonal relationships are like organs, and the people we know are like blood vessels... When the organs are transplanted into our bodies, they will essentially reconnect with our blood vessels, so the names in our memories will not change, but the interpersonal relationships will be reconnected to the new 'past'..."

Chen Ling took advantage of this and fabricated the character of "Chi Tong", forcing him to act with her... But in fact, Chi Tong was not a friend at all in Chen Ling's memory, but just a popcorn seller opposite the factory.

"Then how can I get my memory back?"

Chen Ling thought for a moment, "The simplest way is to find the person who tied the bell. As long as the Silver King takes action, our memories will naturally return... Of course, this is impossible."

Before Hongxiu felt disappointed, Chen Ling spoke again:

"But besides him, I know someone who can use a curse to cause the memories of different people to be misplaced... This may be the only way for us to regain our memories."

"Where is he?" Hongxiu's eyes lit up.

"Now, we should be in the Tianshu Realm."

Hongxiu frowned slightly.

She pondered for a moment and answered seriously, "Now that the Silver King is not here, I can lead you out of the Wuji Realm and head directly to Tianshu."

Hongxiu's tone was calm, but it contained a strong sense of self-confidence, as if she didn't care about anyone, whether it was the Thief Saint, the Judgement Agent, or the Wuji Lord.

"I don't doubt your strength, Miss Hongxiu." Chen Ling sighed, "But if we want to exchange memories, we have to bring the person with our memories with us first... Otherwise, who can we exchange with?"

"Where is the person who has our memories?"

"I don't know." Chen Ling paused for a moment, "They should have been hidden by the Fire Usurper."

Hongxiu's eyes fell on the rearview mirror. A black car followed behind them, driving slowly in the dim light before dawn...

"You should have had a plan a long time ago, right?" Hongxiu asked.

"Yes." Chen Ling nodded slightly.

"And this plan requires your cooperation."

……

The vehicle slowly stopped in the wilderness.

Many figures gathered in one place. Huang He looked around and quickly locked onto an inconspicuous manhole cover.

"It's right here." Huang He lowered his eyes. "From here, there is a complicated drainage system. After the previous investigation, we have basically locked down an area... The Rat Gang is there."

"Then why don't we just go down and catch them all in one fell swoop?" Lan Yu said casually, "There should be only one level seven among this group of rats. With so many of us, they can't escape even if they have wings."

"Not necessarily. Many of the drainage pipes below are not recorded on the drawings. We cannot rule out the possibility that they took advantage of the chaos to escape."

Huang He looked towards Chen Ling.

"Otherwise, we wouldn't have asked Mr. Chen to make this trip... What do you think, Mr. Chen?"

"You're right. The Rat Gang is a group of insidious and cautious guys."

Chen Ling said in a deep voice, "According to my understanding of them, they must have prepared a more covert way of escape besides the conventional route, and even prepared some hidden traps."

"Oh?"

Huang He raised his eyebrows, "Then what do you think we should do?"

"We must not put all our people in one place. We must act separately, and the more dispersed the better." Chen Ling pointed to the sewer and said,

"When the encirclement and suppression begins, everyone is like a big net, slowly closing in on the Rat Gang, but not completely blocking them off... Leave them a way out, let them escape in that direction, and Miss Hongxiu and I will be in charge of robbing and killing them, and we can catch them all in one fell swoop."

"This is too risky. There are only so many of us. If we spread out too much, we can only leave one or two people in each place. What if we encounter a group of rats when we close the net and we can't stop them?" Lan Yu retorted subconsciously.

"That's better than letting them escape without anyone noticing."

"But……"

In fact, Chen Ling didn’t understand the Rat Party at all. In the memories of the ordinary person he replaced, he didn’t even know what the Rat Party was... But this group of fire usurpers seemed to have determined that he had some kind of relationship with the Rat Party and knew them very well.

In this case, Chen Ling simply took advantage of the opponent's force and pretended to know the Rat Gang very well and offered advice.

In fact, Chen Ling proposed this plan purely to create an opportunity to act alone. After all, he and Hongxiu are now a united front, but if there are other people around, their actions will also be restricted.

"If you don't trust me, that's fine. After all, I'm just a guide... Do whatever you want."

Chen Ling acted as if it had nothing to do with her.

Huang He stared at Chen Ling for a long time, and finally made up his mind.

"Just do as he says..."

After all, he was chosen by Chi Tong himself, and judging from this kid's attitude, he seemed to really know the Rat Gang very well. Instead of them taking action and taking responsibility themselves, they might as well trust Chen Ling once.

Soon, everyone was divided into more than ten groups of two and quickly went underground.

Chen Ling and Hong Xiu naturally became a team without any suspense, and due to Hong Xiu's own super high combat power, they were directly assigned to the deepest place underground, waiting to intercept the rat gang.

"Is there really someone hiding in a place like this?" Hong Xiu frowned slightly as she felt the dark and humid environment around her.

"Let's not talk about the light and smell for now. The underground drainage system of the Wuji Realm is full of various bacteria and poisonous insects... If you live here for a long time, your body will have problems."

"Who knows... But the leader of the Rat Gang is really amazing, as he is determined to set up his base here."

Before Chen Ling could say something, a loud explosion was heard from above!

boom--! !

"…It has begun." Chen Ling narrowed his eyes slightly.
