This isn't a function. It's a defined type. Functions are a different thing
in Puppet.
Put the define in a place the autoloader will find it. I'm assuming your
modulepath is "/etc/puppet/modules/sandbox" ?
/etc/puppet/modules/sandbox/two/manifests/testfn.pp
define two::testfn() { ... }
then you can declare instances of it from anywhere.
