When an elephant came to the paddy field at mid night, they (guest and owner) were trying to get out the elephant from the paddy field by shouting and making noise, but the elephant did not take any care of it. As a result, the two persons climbed down from the tower - watching the paddy field on huts which made on long poles of trees in the field - and tried to chase the elephant with the light of their torchlight.
