Yan Changge had never used a mobile phone before. He stared at the numbers on it for a while, poked the screen a few times with his fingers, and hung up the phone directly.

Yan Changge: “…”

He stared at the phone quietly, waiting for it to ring again.

Fortunately, Qu Lian was not a person who would easily get discouraged. He quickly made a second call. Yan Changge remembered that he had poked the red area before hanging up the phone. This time, he poked the green area a few times and drew a few times imitating the way everyone used their mobile phones, and finally answered the phone.

"I'm sorry, I didn't understand how to use the phone the first time." Yan Changge explained bluntly after taking the phone.

There is no need to hide what you don't know. If you don't know, you don't know. Instead of hiding it, it's better to think about how to learn to use a mobile phone. Yan Changge never thought that his ignorance of the world was shameful. You can learn from not knowing, not to mention that he also knows things that modern people don't know but he does.

"I guessed it." Qu Lian's pleasant voice came through the receiver, with a hint of laughter at the end. Yan Changge sensitively heard that the voice transmitted through the mobile phone was slightly different from his own voice. After all, it was a mass-produced voice transmission magic weapon, and it was not as effective as one made by a great man himself.

"I feel a little pain on the back of my hand. Where are you?" Qu Lian continued, "I'll pick you up."

"I..." Yan Changge said a place name, which he had silently memorized when he heard Old Lady Xu mention her home address.

Qu Lian checked the map on his phone for a while but still couldn't figure out where it was. Finally, he said helplessly, "Forget it. Turn on the GPS. I can locate you here."

The cell phone actually has a tracking function! Yan Changge was secretly surprised, but he still turned on the GPS under Qu Lian's instruction, and then quietly waited for Qu Lian to pick him up.

The alley where Old Lady Xu lived had no road repairs, and it was particularly difficult to walk in. Even though Yan Changge was ignorant, he knew that this kind of road was not suitable for vehicles, so he took advantage of the fact that there was no one at night and reached the main road in a few turns.

Qu Lian stared at the GPS while driving: "..."

He immediately called back: "What happened? How come you're moving faster than I am driving? You must be going nearly 100 km/h? Did you take a taxi?"

Yan Changge: "...No, my place is quite remote, and I was afraid it would be difficult for you to drive in, so I walked to a more open area."

Qu Lian: "...Are you sure you walked?"

Yan Changge was silent for a while before he slowly said, "Our sect's Qinggong can allow people to increase their speed to the extreme in a short period of time."

Qu Lian suddenly realized, "So that's how it is. I don't know much about martial arts, but you seem to be quite skilled and very fast."

Yan Changge said nothing.

Qu Lian added, "But don't move anymore, just stay where you are. I can't drive more than 100 km/h in the city, and you're going too fast for me to catch up."

"Okay." Yan Changge replied.

There were not many cars at night, so Qu Lian quickly found Yan Changge. This time he had changed to a Hummer, which was completely enclosed and looked very sturdy.

Yan Changge opened the car door and sat in the passenger seat, and asked directly: "Where is the medicine box? I'll help you apply the medicine."

"At my house," Qu Lian said with a smile, "Come to my house. I asked around and found out that you don't live in the Wuxie. Do you have a place to stay? You don't have an ID card, so you can't stay in a hotel even if you have money. And I'll probably need medicine for a few days for my injury. It'll be convenient for you to stay at my house. You can't ask me to pick you up every time."

Yan Changge looked at him for a while and said, "You are not short of money, and you should not be short of people to help you apply medicine. I am indeed not very familiar with common sense, but I still know the most basic things."

"You're showing off?" Qu Lian didn't feel embarrassed at all when Yan Changge pointed out that he had bad intentions. Instead, he said frankly, "Actually, you're right. I have other purposes. You also said that twenty-five is my doom, and every five years I will have a doom. I survived five and fifteen, and I will survive in the future. I don't know what kind of doom I will encounter, but it will be safer to have someone with good skills to protect me, right? In fact, if you want to hire a bodyguard, you can go to a professional bodyguard company or the Wushu Association, but I don't trust the Wushu Association. It just so happens that you definitely need to find a job, so how about I hire you? Food and accommodation, and three times the market price, how about it?"

"No need." Yan Changge refused.

Qu Lian continued, "Five times? Ten times? Just name your price. After all, life is more important."

"I said you don't need to give me money," Yan Changge said, "I know you are in danger, and you ask me for help, how can I not help you? You don't need money, and you don't need food, I will find a way myself."

Qu Lian: "...You are such a good person, you said so yourself."

For some reason, Yan Changge always felt that Qu Lian was a little angry.

This person is really strange. Every time he praises himself for being a good person, he has a hint of anger in his heart, as if he doesn't want to be a good person.

Yan Changge didn't really understand people's hearts, but if he wanted to live in this world, he had to understand what people were thinking. It just so happened that he and Qu Lian also had a connection, so he asked directly: "Why are you angry? I think most people would be happier if they could save money."

"I'm not short of money," Qu Lian said indifferently without a smile, "Things that can be solved with money are not a big deal. I prefer to solve problems with money rather than owe favors. You saved my life before, and I think I'm very valuable. How much do you want? Name your price."

"I see," Yan Changge nodded. Although he didn't understand Qu Lian's idea, he was willing to respect Qu Lian's wishes, so he said, "Then let's do this. I'll pay you three times as much as you said before. As for saving my life, you can give me whatever you want. But I don't want the money. Please donate it to the disaster area, poor areas or people in need. I don't know much about this place, so I don't know where the money can be put to good use."

Qu Lian slammed the brakes hard, and the black Hummer stopped urgently on the side of the road, making a sharp braking sound.

"Do you have a problem?" Qu Lian said angrily, "I have seen people who don't love money, but not loving money doesn't mean they can be without money. If you donate all your money, what will you eat, wear and live in? You have never changed this ugly outfit since I first saw you. Do you plan to never change your clothes for the rest of your life? You really think you are a hero, but what era is this? People who live in the open air are not heroes, they are beggars!"

Qu Lian was very angry, but Yan Changge didn't think there was anything wrong with his attitude. Qu Lian, whose chest was heaving violently with anger, looked very energetic, and his eyes were bright with anger, reflecting in Yan Changge's heart like a ball of fire.

He was born from fire, and Yan Changge had a sense of belonging to fire.

So Yan Changge reached out his hand, gently stroked Qu Lian's hair, and whispered: "I'm fine. Compared to money, I have more important things to do."

Yan Changge's hand was not warm, but rather cold with a metallic texture, but this temperature instantly calmed Qu Lian. He raised his hand slightly and saw the wound on his hand. When his fingers touched Yan Changge's, they paused for a moment and asked, "Can I touch you?"

"Yeah." Yan Changge nodded.

Qu Lian then held Yan Changge's hand on his head with both hands. He changed from a furious cat to a calmed cat. After holding Yan Changge's hand, he slowly said: "I don't like good people. Good people don't have a good death."

"I won't die." Yan Changge smiled slightly.

At most, he would return to his original form, become a sword again, and be displayed in a museum or buried underground. Perhaps he would unconsciously use his evil spirit to seduce others, allowing those with bad intentions to use him to kill people. And after thousands of years, he would appear in this world and become a human again.

When Qu Lian held his hand, Yan Changge injected his inner essence into Qu Lian's body. He suddenly realized that it didn't matter whether he could become a human or not. The most important thing was that during the time he was a human, he could live according to his own wishes, and that was enough.

Although Zhen Yuan is very important to Yan Changge now, he is still willing to give his precious Zhen Yuan to Qu Lian. This person's Yang Qi is depleted, even if he is not in a fatal disaster, he will become sick if he continues like this.

Qu Lian felt a warm current flowing from his palm into his body. He widened his eyes and asked, "What are you doing?"

"To replenish your yang energy." Yan Changge said.

The true energy used by Yan Changge was transformed from the merits he had accumulated over the past few days. Merits are the purest true energy. This true energy entered Qu Lian's body and slowly warmed his damaged body.

Qu Lian had been staring at Yan Changge when he suddenly felt his eyes were a little blurry. He saw that Yan Changge's shirt suddenly became blurry and he couldn't help but blinked twice. When he opened his eyes again, he found that the T-shirt was no longer blurry, it was gone completely!

"Where are your clothes?" Qu Lian stared at Yan Changge's strong chest, but soon he found that changes had taken place in himself as well.

"Eh? What's wrong with me..." Qu Lian looked down at his lower body, then looked at Yan Changge's chest.

“Huh?!!!”

The author has something to say:

Please figure out what happened on your own. I believe you all understand, hahahaha!

Qu Lian: As a bodyguard, you have to follow me 24 hours a day.

Yan Changge: Yeah.

Qu Lian: Eh? Where are you taking me?

Yan Changge: There is someone there who needs help. I will take you there.

Qu Lian: It’s you who follows me 24 hours a day, not me who follows you 24 hours a day!!!
