When they arrived home, the old woman told her neighbors about their find.
They just laughed at her. Nobody believed her words. But one day some passing buffalo traders heard the
story. They found the termite mound and dug up the jar.
Gingerly they opened it, then jumped back in alarm.
Buffalo traders: "What'a lie! This is a huge snake."
In the huge jar they found, not gold, but a huge snake, lying coiled inside, filling the jar with its body.
Buffalo traders: "They can't get away with telling us such a lie. Let's teach that old couple a lesson."
Finding a strong liana vine from the forest, they tied it around the jar and pulled it into their wagon. Late
that night, they dropped the jar right in front of the old couple's hut, they turned the jar onto its side,
removed the cover, and nudge open the old couple's door. Then they hurried away into the night, certain
that the snake would enter the house and strike the couple.
The next morning, the old woman got up before drawn as usual to prepare their breakfast. It was still
dark when she pushed open the door and stepped outside. She stumbled over something.
Old woman: "Ouch, Old man, I stumbled over something.
Could you bring a candle to see what it is?
