Every time he performed, lots of people gathered and watched. He drew the bow(弓) and shot the arrow. The crowd always cheered. The old man made a living by selling oil for many years.
One day he happened to pass by and stopped to watch. He just nodded his head.
Chen Yaozi was not pleased. He eyed the old man from head to foot. “Er, it’s just a matter of practice.” After these words, he put the oil pot on the ground and placed a coin cover its mouth. He poured the oil through the little hole. It went straightly and there was no oil on the coin. The old man said,
“There is nothing special. I've just mastered some skills. Practice makes perfect.”
