Chapter 21: Sowing Discord
As soon as Master Qian finished speaking, Gu Yundong had already quietly bypassed the hiding place of Madam Yang and the other two and revealed herself from another direction.
"You're Qian San?"
Master Qian was stunned. He looked with surprise at the girl who spoke.
Fu Ming's eyes lit up as he said excitedly, "Master Qian, this is my eldest niece."
However, in the next moment, he frowned and asked curiously, "Yundong, where's your younger brother and sister?"
"Uncle-in-law, don't interrupt. Let me confirm his identity first." As she spoke, Gu Yundong looked at Master Qian. "Are you Qian San?"
Fu Ming was confused. Confirm? What identity?
Qian San did not quite understand what she meant. "So what if I am?"
"That's good." Gu Yundong nodded and ran to Fu Ming's side. She pulled him back two steps. "Uncle, your mission is completed. Stay away so that you won't be hurt."
These words were simply baffling. Fu Ming was completely dumbfounded. "No, Yundong, what are you talking about? Why are you pulling me?"
"Alright, Uncle, don't worry. I won't snatch your credit. You lured Qian San and the others here. You've contributed the most and will receive the most food. I know what to do. Step back first. Otherwise, what if the swords hurt you?"
Lured? These words immediately made Qian San cautious. He suddenly looked up at Fu Ming and realized that Fu Ming was actually two meters away from him.
"Fu Ming, what do you mean? What do you mean by luring us here?"
Gu Yundong took another big step back and looked arrogant and unafraid of death. She laughed at Qian San. "You don't know, do you? Qian San, you've been tricked. Haha. You killed Uncle Wang's daughter. He came to take revenge on you. He brought people to ambush here. As long as my uncle lures you here, he will give us a bag of food and promise to help us enter the city."
Qian San's expression changed drastically. Although he did not know who the Uncle Wang she was talking about was, he had killed many people.
"Fu Ming, you're courting death." He did not have time to judge if Gu Yundong was telling the truth. He immediately waved at his three subordinates. "Capture them."
Gu Yundong turned around and ran. As she ran, she shouted at a dark corner, "Uncle Wang, hurry up and do it."
When she shouted, Qian San and the others subconsciously stopped in their tracks and turned to look for the so-called Uncle Wang.
The corners of Gu Yundong's mouth curled up slightly. She took this opportunity to turn around abruptly. The crossbow bolt hidden in her sleeve shot out with a whoosh and hit Qian San's forehead.
"Huh?!" Qian San made a sound and fell straight back.
"Ah…!" Fu Ming screamed and looked at Master Qian, who was lying on the ground with his eyes wide open in shock. He did not even dare to breathe.
The others were also stunned. In the next moment, another crossbow bolt shot over, but this time, it missed.
However, even so, the other three thugs were so frightened that they panicked, especially when they saw their boss die with grievances. They immediately couldn't care less and scrambled away.
Fu Ming also shouted and ran. He was no longer in the mood to catch Gu Yundong.
Gu Yundong pursed her lips. Seeing that their footsteps had disappeared, she picked up the crossbow on the ground. The position was not good, and the crossbow bolt could only hit the ground to deter them.
She did not need to care about Fu Ming's family. If Qian San died, his three subordinates would not let them off.
Gu Yundong sneered and began to plunder Qian San's belongings.
This person did not bring anything with him. She only found a money bag from him. There were twenty taels of silver inside.
Very well, the money was hers now.
Gu Yundong put it away in satisfaction. When she got up again, she heard a commotion at the city gate.
As expected, they started fighting.
