Alibaba, the protagonist of Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves, was originally a poor woodcutter. He was honest and kind-hearted. On the way to chop wood, he accidentally discovered the treasure house of the robber group and obtained a large amount of treasure, but he did not take it for himself.
The robbers secretly planned to kill Ali Baba to eliminate future troubles. Thanks to the help of the smart, witty and hateful maid Megana, Ali Baba was able to escape danger and defeat the robbers.
Megana cleverly destroyed the robbers' evil plans three times, killing two robbers with the knife of her companions and burning the other 37 robbers with boiling oil.
Finally, she alertly discovered the sinister plot of the bandit leader and bravely took the opportunity of dancing to stab him to death with a dagger.
Alibaba gave her half of the treasure in the treasury and let his nephew marry her.
