In all things, one must study in order to understand their meaning. The time traveler, Yuzuru Senbaishi, picked up a book titled "The Will of Fire." He opened it only to find it devoid of any substance, lacking any historical context of the Leaf Village, with each page crookedly filled with the words 'Will of Fire.' Senbaishi couldn't sleep, so he took out "The Will of Fire" again and carefully read it throughout the night. Only from the gaps between the letters did he discover the hidden message - the whole book was filled with just two words: Ponzi scheme! Senbaishi felt a mixture of anxiety and fear in his heart. He made up his mind that one day, he would definitely escape from this brainwashing organization called Konoha, posing as a Ponzi scheme!

She once experienced the Battle of Changping and witnessed the massacre of hundreds of thousands of people. She led the Great Qin Iron Cavalry and competed with the Six States for dominance over the world. She witnessed the division of the world into three parts, and the shattering of mountains and rivers. She also heard the melodic sound of the Lu Zhongqin. During the prosperous era of Zhenguan, she indulged in the present with a single intoxication. How did that eternal empress remain youthful? She galloped with a fresh robe and a furious horse, and also wore a feather fan and a silk headdress. She worked as a farmer in the countryside and taught as a scholar. But no one knows that such a person has lived for two thousand years. Well, this is a relatively light-hearted and relaxing historical text because of personal reasons, it may not completely conform to history and withstand rigorous scrutiny. However, I will do my best to research and write the material comprehensively. It's my first time writing this kind of article, so I hope to make it more interesting, haha.

The enchantress proprietor of the Misfortune Tavern was indeed a considerate and kind-hearted person. After downing a glass of "Midnight" in one gulp, Danton began to complain, "Why is it that as a holy knight, I have to be accompanied by a group of followers from the dark forces?" "Sometimes, pretending to be a death knight isn't so bad!" the proprietress insincerely comforted, then scolded a few busty succubus maids who kept rubbing against Danton. "No one wants to deal with undead creatures all day long. With them around, I can't even attract a single girl," Danton lamented. "The ghoul legion doesn't care about anything other than fresh meat. They consistently skip their classes on gentlemanly conduct. The abomination legion has become obsessed with bandages, thinking that slightly yellow linen is the epitome of fashion. They've wrapped themselves up like mummies. Even the succubus maid legion is openly demanding paid vacations!" "Forget about those troubles. We've captured some sacrificial dancers today. Would you like to stay and enjoy their performance?" the proprietress suggested. "No, the crops on the farm are ripe. I have to go back and keep an eye on those ogre slaves, or they'll slack off!" Leaving behind three gold coins from Lordaeron, Danton walked out of the Misfortune Tavern, feeling frustrated.
