Description:A man took a cow roaming round the village, challenging anybody who could tell a lie to surpass him would get the cow. He finally arrived in a house and met only a small girl who he asked to bring him water to drink. It took the girl two days to bring him the water and when she came back Mr. Liar asked her why she had taken so long. She said her mother's water got mixed with that of her stepmother's and she has been trying to separate it for two days. So Mr. Liar handed over his cow to her for he couldn't imagine how someone could tell a lie like that.
