One day a strong cowboy was travelling on his horse when he saw a bar. He decided to stop for a few drinks, so he tied (拴) his horse outside the bar, walked into it and ordered two bottles of beer. This cowboy was new in town. He looked around and noticed some people making faces to him. He guessed that they might play some tricks (把戏) on him, but he said nothing and continued to drink.
