But there was a weasel (鼬鼠). He didn’t move. The elephant was using his body to hit the block.

However, just then someone said, “Look! Something is moving inside the block!” In fact, it was the weasel. He soon came out with the treasure. They were all surprised to see how the weasel had got the treasure without breaking the block. The weasel told them that before doing that he had taken some time to think and watch.
