Save the Bachelor of Heaven

"By the way, since you have inherited the priesthood of Quetzalcoatl, can the curse on these gold coins be changed to blessing?" Xiang Nan took out the Aztec gold coin again.

There is the curse of Quetzalcoatl on this gold coin, which makes people immortal, but they have to live in pain forever. Xiang Nan only wants to be immortal and does not want to suffer, so he hopes to remove its curse.

"That's very simple, I will take back the curse." Colibuso nodded, "But blessing 882 gold coins and making everyone who gets the gold coins immortal is a bit too much effort, so I will only bless one."

"Only one?" Xiang Nan was stunned and said in surprise.

"This one is a divine weapon, and the effect is long-lasting and constant," Colibuso explained, "It's different from a curse."

Whether it is a curse or a blessing, it can be taken back at any time, but the divine weapon is long-lasting and constant. Once it is made, even the person who made it will find it difficult to take back the divine power.

"So that's it, can it really be immortal?" Xiang Nan asked curiously.

"Unless the person who killed you is a god with a higher rank than me, then I can't help you." Kolibuso explained, "But I think there shouldn't be many gods this strong in this world."

"Then let's discuss whether it can be changed to two?" Xiang Nan asked, "I can exchange with you other artifacts, such as the War God's Belt, the Holy Grail of Jesus, the Frost Wristband..."

It's not enough for him to have only one artifact of immortality. If there are two, he can give one to someone else.

"These artifacts are useless to me, forget it, I'll give you two." Kolibuso nodded, and then he saw him muttering something and dancing constantly.

A moment later, she suddenly cut her wrist, and two drops of blue blood gushed out. And the next second, these two drops of blood appeared in front of Xiang Nan.

Xiang Nan could clearly feel that these two drops of blood contained amazing energy. He quickly took out two gold coins and soaked them in the blue blood.

The gold coins quickly absorbed the blue blood and turned into two blue signs, which looked sacred and weird.

Xiang Nan then reached out and took the two plates, and the moment he touched them, he felt a warm current flowing through his body.

"It feels so good." Xiang Nan said happily, and then he poked his heart, and blood gushed out in an instant. But he himself was fine, except for the pain, and he had no intention of dying.

"Very good, it seems that I can really live forever." Xiang Nan said with satisfaction, "Thank you, Colibuso, I will remember your kindness."

"Very good." Colibuso nodded.

...

Then, Xiang Nan left the rain forest and returned to Port Royal.

After returning to Port Royal, Xiang Nan prepared to ask Governor Weatherby for marriage.

After two years, he is now a colonel in the British Royal Navy.

On the one hand, he did catch a lot of pirates, protected the safety of Port Royal and the surrounding waters, and protected Britain's interests in the Caribbean.

On the one hand, it is easy to be an official if you have someone in the court. After all, his father Lawrence Norrington is an admiral, so his promotion speed is naturally very fast.

It takes at least four to five years for an ordinary person to join the army and become a warrant officer. It takes at least ten years to go from a warrant officer to a captain. And it is impossible to go from a captain to a colonel without twenty or thirty years.

In comparison, Xiang Nan has become a colonel of the British Royal Navy just after he turned twenty-eight, which is naturally quite remarkable.

As the saying goes, one step fast, every step fast. Everyone can see that as long as Xiang Nan does not make any big mistakes, he will definitely become a naval admiral in his lifetime, and he may even be knighted.

In short, his future is unlimited.

Everyone in Royal Port can see this clearly.

Therefore, since Xiang Nan came to Royal Port, many local wealthy businessmen and big families have shown goodwill to him, and many people hope to marry their daughters to him.

But Xiang Nan did not agree.

Now he is ready to formally propose to Governor Weatherby Swan.

...

For this reason, Xiang Nan greeted Elizabeth first.

Elizabeth is already eighteen years old this year. This age is not old, but it is not small either.

Because according to the British law at that time, men at the age of 14 and women at the age of 12 could get married.

However, the marriage age in British society at that time was generally over 25 years old. Women were 25 years old and men were 26 years old.

The reason for this is mainly because marriage at that time focused more on economic benefits.

Women valued the man's property, while men valued the woman's dowry.

The UK implements the primogeniture system, and the title and wealth are usually inherited by the eldest son, and other children have no right to inherit.

Therefore, even if the man has a prominent family, if he is not the eldest son and has no right to inherit wealth, it is difficult to find a suitable partner.

The same is true for women. Without a generous dowry, it is difficult to marry themselves.

This can be seen from the novel "Pride and Prejudice" and the British TV series "Downton Abbey".

In "Pride and Prejudice", Bennett has only five daughters but no sons, so the family property can only be inherited by Collins, a distant relative.

Therefore, although the five daughters of the Bennet family were all beautiful, it was difficult for them to get married because they did not have much dowry.

After the youngest daughter Lydia eloped with the officer Wickham, Darcy spent a lot of money to help Wickham pay off his gambling debts and paid a large amount of dowry to allow the two to get married.

In "Downton Abbey", although the second lady Edith was born into a noble family, it was difficult for her to marry because she had no inheritance rights and did not have much dowry. She could hardly find a suitable partner. Either he had no title or he was too old.

So "Little Women" made it clear that "marriage is an economic issue."

...

"Elizabeth, I have something to say to you." Xiang Nan looked at Elizabeth Swan and said.

"What?" Elizabeth asked casually while reading the new book Xiang Nan brought.

"You look at me, I'm serious." Xiang Nan emphasized.

Seeing him so serious, Elizabeth was stunned and looked at Xiang Nan in confusion.

"I want to say, we have known each other for six years, what is your impression of me?" Xiang Nan asked.

"Of course, why do you ask?" Elizabeth asked puzzled.

"Because I have a very good impression of you, you are the lover I have always dreamed of, so I want to formally propose to you, will you agree to me?" Xiang Nan asked with a smile.

Elizabeth was stunned and then blushed.

"Promise me, don't break my heart." Xiang Nan asked.

Elizabeth took a few deep breaths and nodded heavily.

"That's great, thank you, Elizabeth." Xiang Nan hugged her tightly, "I will go to Governor Weatherby to formally propose marriage now."
