In the feudal era, God was a supreme title. Even the emperor only dared to call himself the Son of Heaven. Ordinary people did not dare to show any disrespect to God.
Tang Xiaobei asked God to impose all punishments on her, thus helping all the fishermen bear the possible blame.
This made the fishermen both moved and guilty.
Even Mr. Hong was so ashamed that he could not lift his head.
With Tang Xiaobei's status, even if everyone in Yuxi Town starved to death, she would be fine.
But she was willing to make such a vicious oath for the sake of the people of Jiangnan.
The fishermen originally had some concerns, but after hearing what Tang Xiaobei said, they all gave up their worries.
Qing Mulan was so excited that her breathing became rapid. She pulled out the long knife from her waist, strode to the whale's body, and slashed the whale's back with a knife, cutting it directly into the whale's back more than half a meter deep.
Then he held a knife in one hand and imitated Tang Xiaobei's look, raising his head and shouting: "Oh my God, look, I was the one who cut this knife. If you want to punish me, I and Xiaobei will bear it together!"
"Count me in!"
"I am one of them!"
The personal guards led by Amei also followed Qing Mulan's example and stepped forward, drew out their black knives and stabbed the whale.
Whether it was Tang Xiaobei, Qing Mu Lan or the personal guards led by Amei, they were all a group of girls. The fishermen were even more ashamed when they saw that they dared to take action.
Finally, a bearded fisherman came out, raised the ax at his waist, and struck the whale with an axe.
"Damn it, a bunch of girls dare to do this, and I'm willing to take the risk. Even if it's really the God of the Sea, I'll be the one to kill the god! If God wants to punish me, let me punish him too!"
If someone takes the lead, someone will follow.
"If it hadn't been for the Imperial Master and Mrs. Xiaobei, my family would have starved to death long ago. At worst, I would have given my life back to God!"
"Although I am just a commoner, I still have the shamelessness to shoulder the burden of God together with Mrs. Xiaobei!"
"What Poseidon? I only recognize two gods, that is Mrs. Xiaobei who gave me porridge and kept my family from starving to death, and the Imperial Master who asked me to work in the dock to feed my family!"
"Yes, I only recognize the Imperial Master and Mrs. Xiaobei!"
"My brothers from Jiangnan are hungry and give us food. We can't be arrogant people!"
…
More and more swords and tools were slashing at the whale. Some workers without tools kicked the whale's carcass as a show of determination.
Even if some people still have concerns, they can only follow since everyone else is on board.
Qing Mulan looked at the fishermen and workers coming in, and then looked at Tang Xiaobei who was standing aside calmly, feeling filled with emotion in her heart.
Tang Xiaobei was not convinced by the Ninth Princess. In fact, Qing Mulan was not convinced by Tang Xiaobei either.
In her opinion, the main reason why Tang Xiaobei has the power and status he has now is because he married Jin Feng.
But now Qing Mulan realizes the gap between herself and Tang Xiaobei.
In the same situation, she was frightened and overwhelmed by Mr. Hong. After Tang Xiaobei came over, he not only quickly took control of the situation, but also successfully aroused the workers' emotions.
Qing Mulan is ashamed of this calmness and courage.
In Qing Mulan's eyes, Tang Xiaobei was extremely calm, but Qing Mulan didn't know that Tang Xiaobei was actually very nervous.

After all, she is also a native of Dakang, and would not easily say anything that offends God unless forced by circumstances.
Tang Xiaobei looked calm on the surface, but in fact his back was wet with cold sweat.
At this moment, Tang Xiaobei noticed a palm resting on her shoulder.
Tang Xiaobei's back instantly tensed up, but then he started laughing again.
There were at least a dozen personal guards behind her, and no one except Jin Feng could approach her quietly.
Except for Jin Feng, no one dared to put their hands on the shoulders of the general manager of the Jinchuan Chamber of Commerce. Even the ninth princess Guan Xiaorou would not make such a move.
So Tang Xiaobei didn't look back, leaned into Jin Feng's arms, and asked with a smile: "Ms. sir, why are you here?"
"I heard that the tide has gone out, so I came to take a look." Jin Feng replied.
In his two lifetimes, this was the first time he saw a whale in the real world. It would be a lie to say he wasn't curious.
Jin Feng also wanted to see if a table could really be placed on a whale's tongue, and if a child could really be drilled into its heart and large blood vessels.
So I specially handed over the hammer at night and called him when the tide went out.
"When did you come?" Tang Xiaobei turned around and asked.
"It's not far behind you." Jin Feng replied with a smile.
"Then why didn't you speak just now?" Tang Xiaobei's tone was a bit complaining.
If Jin Feng had been here just now, she would not have come forward. After all, Qing Mulan was the person in charge of No. 3 Dockyard, and what she said was a bit inappropriate.
"If I had spoken, how could I have seen such a domineering side of shopkeeper Tang?" Jin Feng joked with a smile: "The man who kills gods is so powerful!"
"Ms. sir, you still make fun of me!"
Tang Xiaobei reached out and pinched Jin Feng's waist: "Do you know how scared I am now!"
"What are you afraid of?" Jin Feng asked.
In front of his lover, Tang Xiaobei finally stopped hiding it and whispered: "I'm afraid this thing is really a sea god, I'm afraid I'll really get retribution!"
"Don't worry, they are just two fish, just bigger. Other than that, they are no different from other fish!"
Jin Feng comforted: "Besides, God has a good nature. We are not doing this for ourselves, but to save more people. Even if there is something wrong, God will not make things difficult for you!"
Hearing what Jin Feng said, the stone in Tang Xiaobei's heart finally fell to the ground.
Mr. Hong, who was standing next to him, saw Jin Feng and wanted to step forward, but was blocked by the Iron Hammer leader.
"This old man is really careless. Didn't he see that the husband and the wife were being affectionate? Why did he still move forward?"
Tie Chui complained in his mind and glared at Mr. Hong fiercely.
Mr. Hong originally wanted to call Jin Feng, but after being frightened by Tie Hammer, he realized that it was inappropriate for him to disturb Jin Feng now.
What's more, the workers over there have already sawed off the tail of the whale under the command of Qing Mulan. It's too late to say anything now, so Mr. Hong waited patiently.
Fortunately, Jin Feng didn't keep him waiting for too long. After comforting Tang Xiaobei, Jin Feng turned around and motioned to his guards to get out of the way.
Before Mr. Hong could speak, Jin Feng took the lead and said: "Old man, I know what you are going to say, but what I want to say is that in my opinion, nothing is as important as the lives of the people. Hai? Even if he is really the god of the sea, I
We must kill them, no matter how hard we try to persuade you, if you don’t like it, don’t come to the beach again!”
After saying that, he ignored Mr. Hong and led Tang Xiaobei straight to the whale carcass.
