"Wait a little longer. When she wakes up, we'll ask for the secret recipe and leave immediately. With it, we'd be masters in the future. Think about it. How much do you think we'll be able to sell wine in the capital? Unfortunately, that boy, Third Chen, was so unlucky and short-lived .Otherwise, he could share a piece of the pie with us now."

As Liu Yusheng listened to their conversation, she secretly analyzed the environment they were in.

The air around her was a little cold, a little damp, and mixed with the scent of dirt and rocks. She guessed that she was now in a cave somewhere.

As for the two people who captured her, she had never heard their voices before, but they were hitting on the idea of a secret recipe. They should be living around Xinghua Village. Otherwise, they wouldn't have known that the secret recipe for the fruit wine was hers, a baby.

Quickly assessing the situation she was in, Liu Yusheng pretended to have just woken up and made a noise.

The two people who were talking, immediately fell silent, ran to her side and whispered, "Blessed Baby of Xinghua Village, you brewed the fruit wine. The secret recipe is in your hands. Quickly hand it over, and we'll let you go home!"

Liu Yusheng feigned fright and said, "I-I don't have any secret recipe. I only know how to make wine."

When the two heard this, they were overjoyed and hurriedly asked, "Quickly say how to brew it. Don't ever think of lying to us. If we get to know that you're lying to us, you're dead! You'll never be able to go home again!"

Liu Yusheng nodded immediately, then recited the order in which the fruit wine was made. Naturally, she concealed some of the crucial and undiscoverable steps.

The man named Laizi was suspicious after hearing it, "Buy some wine, wash the grapes, dry them, crush them, throw them in, and then seal them. Stir them once after half a month and then seal them again, and that's it? Is this the secret recipe for making fruit wine? Why is it so simple? Little baby, you're lying, aren't you?"

Liu Yusheng looks like she was on the verge of tears from fright. "No, no, I'm not lying. That's really how the fruit wine is made. This wine was originally made when I was fooling around before. If you don't believe me, just go to the village and ask around. I really didn't lie!"

The baby looked so timid. The two men probably took her word to it or something else, but they didn't ask any further questions.

Then Liu Yusheng heard the footsteps of the two people leaving. Presumably, they went outside to discuss.

She was just unsure; would they release her after discussing, or kill her?

Liu Yusheng didn't dare to bet on humanity.

When they haven't come back, she took out her scalpel from her space and quietly held it in her hand. She strained to keep cutting the rope around her wrists that were tied behind her back.

She must save herself. She couldn't just wait for them to show mercy.

She only took her life in her own hands.

The scalpel was very sharp, and soon, the rope snapped.

Next, Liu Yusheng untied the rope on her feet, but she didn't pull the strip of cloth over her eyes. She only pulled it a little so she could gauge her surroundings.
