"Well" they agreed, "there's nothing we can do about it. We'll have to build another road. "
At this time, a young boy of about 12 years old said, "Excuse me, sirs, but I think I can help you move the rock. "
"You?" they shouted, "What are you talking about? All of us have just tried and we can't move it at all.” The men all laughed at the boy.
The next morning some people came into the street. One of them shouted, "The rock is gone!" More people ran out into the street to see for themselves. It was true, and no one could see it anywhere.
