CHAPTER XVI
The overpass outside the front door is the most lively place in Beiping, the so-called overpass, earlier was a north-south direction of the "gong and pot bridge", it lies on the east-west direction of the dragon beard ditch. Because it is the bridge where the emperor passed through here to worship the heavens and sacrifice to the ancestors, it is called the overpass. The Yuan Dynasty overpass is located in the southern suburbs of the capital, and after the addition of the outer city during the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty, it became the center of the outer city. Outside the first three gates of the Qing Dynasty were guild halls, hotels, and commercial centers, and teahouses, wine shops, restaurants, and entertainment halls for performing arts, storytelling, and singing gradually appeared in the Tianqiao area, forming the prototype of the Tianqiao market. During the Kangxi reign of the Qing Dynasty, the lamp market in the inner city was also moved here. After the opening of the Jinghan Railway during the Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty, the station was set up in Majiapu outside the Yongding Gate, and the passengers who came and went from the Yongding Gate entered and exited, and mostly settled in the hotels around the overpass. During the period of the Republic of China, entertainment venues such as opera gardens and amusement gardens appeared here successively. Since then, commerce, service industries, and handicrafts have also developed around the flyover. After the Republic of China, the bridge was demolished when the road was expanded. The pattern of the old capital has the name of "rich in the east and noble in the west, poor in the south and cheap in the north", and the Tianqiao area in the south of the city, except for the emperor's altar of heaven and the altar of the ancestors who pray for a bumper harvest, its ordinary dwellings have long been dilapidated and dilapidated.
Several streets in the Tianqiao area are the most lively in the middle, where the three religions and nine streams of the capital are concentrated, and the fish and dragons are mixed. Selling strong pills, pimping, selling cigarettes, pulling rickshaws, storytellers, singers, and performing tricks are all strange. Professional criminals, thieves, drug dealers, scammers, and gamblers in the capital are all fond of it. For the powerless and powerless ordinary people, the most terrible thing here is the police in the police station of the outer five districts and the people on the underworld, since ancient times, the official and bandit family, if you don't have a little way to come to the flyover, it is common for ordinary people to be blackmailed and bullied by these people. In a word, the flyover is both a place for entertainment and a place to hide dirt.
Wen San'er pulled the car out of Shouchang Street and entered the overpass, he looked for the person in the car in the crowd, half an hour passed, and no one paid attention.
Wen San'er went to Shouchang Street last night to visit the dark kiln, and slept with a fifty-year-old **, now he is dizzy and weak, I don't know that I think he is tired of tossing with **, in fact, Wen San'er himself understands that he didn't do anything this night, that thing is the same as people, you can't be frightened, once you are scared, you won't be angry.
The area around Shouchang Street is a typical slum area, with a wide stinky ditch running parallel to the dirt road, and on the other side of the dirt road are rows of low, dilapidated bungalows. There is an unwritten rule here, every house has its door open, only a cloth curtain hangs on the door frame, and the old and yellow kiln sisters sit on the small benches at the door, waiting for the prostitutes to choose. As long as a man walks into this block, they can immediately distinguish the purpose of the person, and then use two pieces of broken soles to "snap" twice, and the prostitutes naturally understand, so they directly open the door curtain and enter the house.
It is said that some people have researched that this kind of rule of breaking the soles of shoes to attract prostitutes dates back to the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, when northerners called immodest women "broken shoes", which is probably allusion here.
According to the explanation of the patrol officers of the police station in the outer five districts, the kiln sisters here are all illegal businesses, neither do venereal disease tests nor pay taxes to **, in short, they are not included in the management of **. said so, but the patrolmen all turned a blind eye, first, it stinks here, and the patrolmen are too lazy to patrol here; Besides, the patrol officers all know that the old ladies in the area of Shouchang Street are not easy to mess with, even if she just took off her pants and was about to do a good deed with the prostitute when she was caught by you, it was useless, she dared to pounce on you with a hungry tiger, and when you subdued her after a fight, the prostitute had already put on her pants and fled without a trace, at this time Sister Yao insisted that you framed her, anyway, you have no evidence. Therefore, as long as no one lives here, the patrol officers generally do not come here.
Wen San'er has not been here once or twice, he is naturally familiar with the road, he went after dark, and he is not picky about Sister Yao's appearance like a novice. Wen San'er knows that it's useless to pick, the principle of selling things is that you get what you pay for, if you want a good one, you should go to Bada Hutong and come here.
In general, it didn't feel very good to sleep with Sister Nayao yesterday, he shouldn't have stripped off all his clothes as soon as he entered the house. The kiln sister is fifty years old, with folds on her face, two gold-inlaid front teeth, and a little pair of eyes, and two black eyes in the middle. Wen San'er has every reason to suspect that everything this girl looks at is a double shadow, and she may be able to see the two Wen San'er now.
Sister Yao closed the door with a "bang" and smiled at Wen San'er: "Yo, eldest brother is anxious enough, you haven't asked the price yet, why did you take off all your clothes?" ”
Wen San'er put on a well-informed look: "Uncle, I'm a frequent customer, can I still not know the price?" Three-cents stopped, right? ”
"That's the old emperor's calendar, why don't the prices rise now? You give five cents. ”
Wen San'er said angrily: "What? How dare you ask for five cents like this? Do you have a mirror? Look in the mirror first! ”
Sister Yao said unhurriedly: "It's too expensive, go to the pigsty to find the old sow, you don't need money there." ”
Wen San'er was choked up and speechless, he hurriedly looked for clothes and prepared to move the place: "Big sister, you are a golden branch and jade leaf, you should go to Bada Hutong to sell, I really wronged you here, where can you hand me the clothes?" ”
Sister Yao sat on Wen San'er's clothes: "Want to leave?" It's not that cheap, give two cents and leave, or leave your clothes, and if you can walk naked, I won't leave you. ”
"Hey! Smashing open flames? Uncle, I can't play anymore? Let's be clear, I haven't even touched you. ”
"Big brother, you entered the door and stripped off your clothes, can you still make it clear? Besides, I've been with you, oh, and I want to put on my pants and not admit it? Then you're in the wrong place. ”
"Yo ho! I can see that you are Sun Erniang opening a kiln - you have to pay for it or not. What if I don't give it? Can you still make me a meat bun? ”
Sister Yao turned her head and shouted: "Flower cat!" ”
"Here we go!" A big man jumped in in response, this man was carrying a snowy axe in his hand, and as soon as he spoke, he came out horizontally, "Who, who is tired and crooked?" ”
Wen San'er recognized it at a glance, isn't this the flower cat under Biao Ye back then, how did this kid do this?
Hua Mao'er obviously recognized Wen San'er: "Yo, isn't this Wen San'er?" I haven't seen you in a few years, what's the matter? Are you here to smash my business today? ”
Wen San'er smiled: "Where, big brother, don't I know, brother?" We buddies haven't seen each other for several years, is Biao Ye okay? ”
Hua Mao'er replied angrily: "Who knows if he's good or not, Lao Tzu won't do it with him a long time ago, I said Wen San'er, I haven't seen you for a few years and you're still fucking in the market, and you don't want to pay for the kiln?" ”
"Where can I be, aren't I making fun of my eldest sister? Don't worry, I'm not bad for you. ”
"Well, it's pretty much the same, yes, Wen San'er, you are busy first, I have to take care of it elsewhere, I have nothing to do and come over often." The cat went out with an axe.
When Sister Yao saw that Wen San'er had approved the price, she took off her clothes and climbed into bed with a smile. But Wen San'er can't do it, Hua Mao'er's axe is always dangling in front of his eyes, which makes him feel very unsteady, he knew this, why is this five cents bad? What's this called, this girl looks like a pig doesn't bite a dog and can't put up with it, why is there an axe outside the door?
Wen San'er didn't sleep well all night, tossing and turning in bed, and the ** sleeping snoring sound, as if someone was pulling the bellows in his ear, or the bellows that leaked. The smell in the house was also very strong, and the smoke made Wen San'er's head hurt, at first he couldn't figure out what the smell was, but later he realized that there was bad breath, there was a smell on the bedding, and there were two loose smells under the bed, one was a jar of sauerkraut, and the other was a urinal, these four smells mixed together made Wen San'er spend a nightmare night. He thought a lot in a daze, his thoughts were disorganized, it was not that he couldn't go, but he didn't want to go, since the five cents had been spent, it would be too much to put on his pants and leave at this time, Wen San'er hadn't done anything. How did this kid do this? In the past, it was a serious errand to be a good person for Biao Ye, but now it has come to this point? His identity is not much better than the "big teapot" in the kiln, even Wen San'er looks down on him, mixed up like this, what else is he carrying an axe? Catch up with Ming'er and meet Xu Ye and talk to him, your brother, I let the family bully you, don't care? Xu Ye is righteous, he must be managed, as soon as the lieutenant colonel wears the military uniform, and then calls a few brothers from the national army to come with the guy in a jeep, it is strange that this kid doesn't pee his pants......
The overpass is a bizarre world, bustling, mixed voices, three religions and nine streams, and five elements and eight works constitute a folk customs painting of the old capital. The unique cultural landscape shows a unique historical tension and cultural charm.
There are many food stalls on the first street of the flyover, and the food stalls there are one by one, densely packed, selling bean juice, wontons, fried sausages, noodle tea, plum blossom cakes, marshmallows, pressed dumplings, etc., and the diners are not particular, some sit on the bench and chew slowly, and some simply squat on the ground and leave after eating. There are the most performers in the flyover stalls, Shen San'er's wrestling, Jiao Dehai's stand-up comedy, Yunlifei's funny two reeds, the big gold tooth's foreign films, as well as storytellers and tricksters. Along these stalls, there are people who read faces, tell fortunes, and sell foreign cigarette paintings......
There are also a few cultural people who visit the overpass, they can only be regarded as a kind of Yaxing here, it is a way to get in touch with folk culture, people pay attention to exploring the remnants of history, taste the distant and vast cultural perception, and inspect the folk culture. At that time, Lu Zhongyong was also a cultural person, and this man loved to visit the flyover, in addition to watching juggling, he also tasted snacks, especially bean juice and fried coke rings.
Wen San'er saw Professor Luo Yunxuan sitting on the stool of the food stall in the crowd, taking a sip of bean juice, and there was a plate of finely chopped pickles on the table. Professor Luo took a sip of bean juice and took a bite of pickles, and after tasting it in his mouth for a long time, he reluctantly swallowed it, and he was actually satisfied. Wen San'er greeted Professor Luo and said, "Mr. Luo, do you always come to visit the flyover?" ”
Professor Luo replied politely: "Oh, it's Wen San'er, do you want a bowl of bean juice?" ”
"No, Mr. Luo, I've eaten it, you can use it slowly."
Professor Luo sighed: "It's a pleasure to visit the overpass, it's hard for me to imagine, without the overpass, can Beiping still be called Beiping?" Wen San'er, you may not think so, but I am a person who hides in the study all day long, and I rarely have the opportunity to contact the small people in Beiping, leading the flow of pulp sellers. Let me tell you, I like it here, walking between the three religions and nine streams, listening to the fresh and pure market slang in my ears, and I feel like someone is in the rivers and lakes. It makes sense for Fan Zhongyan to divide 'temples' and 'rivers and lakes' into two completely different worlds, and in my eyes, the flyover is the real rivers and lakes. ”
Professor Luo's emotion made Wen San'er confused, he was very unaccustomed to this kind of crepe language, not only awkward to hear, but also very puzzling, but this was from Professor Luo's mouth, probably also a kind of learning, Wen San'er just had to deal with a few words: "Listening to Mr. Luo is a long knowledge, I have been visiting the flyover for so many years, and it is the first time I have heard what the flyover is...... Paste? ”
Professor Luo is really a nerd, he can't hear the ridicule in Wen San'er's words at all, he just talks endlessly according to his own ideas: "Fan Zhongyan is also pedantic, 'If you live in a temple, you will worry about its people; is far away from the rivers and lakes, and is worried about its king. This is pure nonsense, that is what the big people care about, the small people in the market can't manage so much, what people care about is firewood, rice, oil and salt, and the hot kang head of the wife and children. The people's requirements are not high, they just hope that the ** officials will not keep tossing them. Now the Kuomintang and the Communist Party are fighting on the battlefield, and the newspapers on both sides say that this war will determine the direction of China's future destiny. On the political issue, on the question of what doctrine China will embrace in the future, both sides believe that there is no room for reconciliation. Interestingly, the civil war has become popular in most of China, but the flyover is still a flyover, and the impact of politics on the flyover is like hitting a rubber wall, and it is reduced to nothing in the blink of an eye. You see, the big golden tooth is still happily pulling his foreign films, Jiao Dehai is talking about cross talk, and Guan Dejun, the 'race donkey', is still pretending to be a donkey to make a living, this is 'Jianghu'. No matter how fierce you are tossing in the 'temple', you are still living in the 'rivers and lakes', what does the political disagreement between the parties have to do with the small people in the market? In my opinion, the most important issue in Mr. Zhongshan's Three People's Principles is the issue of 'people's livelihood', no matter what party or doctrine he believes in, as long as this article is resolved, everything in China can be discussed......
The more Professor Luo spoke, the more excited he became, and he was annoyed that the two *** people of the Kuomintang and the Communist Party didn't listen to his advice and just do it? It doesn't seem to give him Professor Luo's face. Wen San'er felt very funny, and said that the scholars were stupid, it seems that it is really true, and it is your business that people fight? You teach your book, I pull my car, I am full one a day, why do you bother so much? You, Professor Luo, are worried about the country and the people while drinking bean juice, and I don't have anything to eat here. Wen San'er interrupted Professor Luo's emotion: "Well, Mr. Luo, you drink slowly first, there seems to be someone over there asking for a car, I'll go over and take a look, and I'll see you back." ”
Wen San'er pulled up the car and ran.
Wen San'er likes to walk around the overpass, only in this place is he like a fish in water, so he doesn't feel like an outsider. As far as the city of Beiping is concerned, the flyover is the place where the lower-class citizens play, especially the famous "Eight Monsters of the Flyover", and there is nothing that the grass people under the roots of the imperial city do not like.
The reputation of the "Eight Monsters of the Flyover" has a long history, and there are several groups of people among them. It is said that the first batch of "Eight Monsters" appeared in the Qing Dynasty during the Xianfeng, Tongzhi, and Guangxu periods, referring to eight artists such as the poor who are not afraid, vinegar drowning cream, Han Mazi, pot bald, Tian lame, ugly grandson, nose buzz, and Chang fool. The second batch of "Eight Monsters" appeared after the Xinhai Revolution. They are the old man who let the toad teach, the old Yun Lifei, the flower dog bear, the golden bell, the fool king, the Zhao lame, the Zhizhen monk, and the Cheng fool.
According to the elders, among the second batch of "Eight Monsters", the "old man who lets the toad teach" is the most weird, this person is dry and thin, with a yellow beard, yellow eyes, and cheeks. He wore a robe, behaved in a gentle manner, and brought two jars, one large and one small, a thin-necked bottle, and a wooden plank with him on the field. After the opening, he spread the wooden plank on the ground, opened the mouth of the big jar first, and muttered: "It's time, go to school!" At this time, a big toad crawled out of the can, jumped onto the board and squatted in the middle, as if the teacher had stepped onto the podium. The old man took out a small jar and opened it, and shouted in his mouth: "It's time to go to school, the gentlemen are here, why haven't the students come to class?" I saw eight small toads jump out of the small jar in turn, climb in front of the plank, and squat there in two rows facing the big toads. When the little toad was squatting, the old man shouted again: "It's time for the teacher to teach the students to read!" At this time, the big toad screamed, and the little toad screamed in unison. That's it, one call and one answer, it's really like teaching. After screaming one after another, the old man shouted again: "It's time, it's time to get out of school!" The little toad got up first and climbed back to the little jar in turn. The big toad was a teacher, and when he saw that the students had entered the can, he slowly got up and jumped into the big can. The old man put away the jar, took out the thin-necked bottle and opened the lid, and said, "Come out and line up,!" At this moment, a large swarm of black and yellow ants crawled out of the bottle. The old man shouted to line up, gave the command to stand upright and aligned, and sprinkled some millet with his hands. At this time, I saw black and yellow ants mixed together, lined up in two teams according to their colors, and they were never mixed. After the ants lined up, the old man gave another order: "Shut up!" The ant crawled back into the bottle. I heard from the older generation that it is common to tame animals and birds in the world, and taming toads and ants is indeed rare. After the old man's death, there was no such performance on the flyover, and his gadgets were unprecedented.
The third group of "Eight Monsters" refers to several folk artists who appeared on the flyover in the thirties and forties of the 20th century. They are Yun Lifei who performs funny two reeds, the big golden tooth who pulls foreign films, Jiao Dehai, the stand-up comedy, the soldier Huang who scolds the street, Shen San'er, the one who sells oil soap and rubs oil, the kidnapper top brick and the donkey who races live.
After Wen San'er left Professor Luo, he first came to the field of "Flying in the Clouds". "Flying in the Clouds" is one of the "Eight Monsters of the Flyover", and he makes a living by singing funny two reeds. Yunlifei, formerly known as Baibaoshan, is the eldest son of Bai Qinglin, the eldest son of Bai Qinglin, whose original name is jumping on the wall and flying on the grass. Yun Lifei's heel flip is the best, very special. He turned his head and nodded to the ground, and at once it was forty. Lao Yun Lifei stopped singing "Funny Second Reed" when he was old, and made a fuss about the story "Journey to the West". Bai Baoshan took over his father's stall and continued to perform. The style of the comical two-reed Peking Opera is very peculiar: a paper cigarette box is used as a black gauze hat, long hair is tied to a thin wire as a beard, a thick wire is glued with chicken feathers as a pheasant feather, and a reed stick is tied with some red and green ropes to become a horse whip. The costumes are simpler, and the coat is not buttoned, even if it is a robe. He has five or six guys, all of whom are all-rounders, and they are very attractive to the audience. Yun Lifei also has two unique skills: one is to stick his tongue out, and the sound of "pop" can be attached to the bridge of the nose; The second is to pinch the ears and stuff them into the ears and eyes, and after a minute or two, say "come out" and the ears will open out of the ears and eyes.
Wen San'er has seen enough of these unique things in the clouds, these things can only be blinded to outsiders who have never seen the world, Wen San'er is an old bridge, and he disdains it.
The field where the clouds fly is next to the "big golden tooth" of the foreign film. Da Jinya, formerly known as Jiao Jinchi, is a native of Hejian County, Hebei. It is said that he offended the local evil youth and was made to a bad point, so he came to Beijing to make a living from foreign films. This man was Humpty Dumpty, with small eyes, a smile and a large gold tooth in his big mouth, hence the nickname. Pull the foreign film, also known as "pull the big piece" or "diorama" and "West Lake view", is a kind of folk juggling that arose in the late Qing Dynasty, the artist will draw a variety of color pictures with a rope tied to the wooden box, the middle of the box is equipped with four or five convex lenses, four or five audiences sit each time, the artist pulls the picture while beating the gong and drum to sing the content of the picture. The other is to push the picture horizontally, and look at it once is eight blockbusters. Some viewers don't watch blockbusters, but just stand around the wooden box and listen to the big gold tooth singing, which is also fun.
"Big Golden Tooth" Jiao Jinchi was standing on a bench at this time, pointing to the picture in the mirror with a thin bamboo pole more than five feet long, and said: "Look at this piece, this is Feng Yuxiang's First National Army, uniting with Guo Songling to attack Fengtian. Guo Songling came from Yang Liuqing in Tianjin on a small steamer, and Guo Songling stood on the bow of the small steamer, and Sun Yue of the Second National Army was standing with a telescope in his hand. If you look at the small dirt hill again, there are about hundreds of people, and Li Jinglin has set up a big camp in the rice field. Both sides prepared artillery and machine guns, which were very fierce. You sat down and listened to my big golden tooth, singing to you one by one. He put down the bamboo pole, stood on the bench, beat the gong and drum, and began to sing:
Look ththere again! The first piece,
The two armies lost peace, and a war began.
The Chinese themselves come to fight themselves,
The brigade was planted in the rice fields.
Machine guns and cannons are arrayed,
Oh, the spring of the turning engine is full of white smoke, hey......
After singing a few paragraphs, the eight blockbusters were also finished, and the "big gold tooth" walked down from the bench and waved to the audience with a smile on his face: "Everyone, you are tired of walking, sit down here with me and rest your legs, spend a total of two big coppers, and watch the real photos and listen to the singing, you should only hold my big gold tooth!" After you sit down, I will sing to you as best I can, and I will make sure that I don't repeat it. If I sing a heavy sentence, you will give me a big mouth. When the money was almost collected, "Big Golden Tooth" changed another set of landscape films and sang:
Look ththere again! Another piece,
It's a cold day in the winter wax moon.
The snow can't stop falling,
Towers and palaces have become silver mountains! Ay......
Wen San'er was bored listening to it, and he was tired of looking at the few broken pieces of "Big Gold Teeth", and was thinking about looking elsewhere, only to see a little man with a dry and thin head, a flat head, small slitted eyes, and a big foot sticking over with a smile. Wen San'er took a step back vigilantly: "Rubbing oil, you stay away from Master Wen." ”
The little man smiled and said: "Wen San'er, you kid has been walking around the flyover for the first ten years, no matter what you look at, you are just looking at it, I haven't seen you take out a copper." ”
Wen San'er scolded back: "Master Wen, even if I don't pluck a hair, I am better than you kid, so let's not pluck the hair from others, unlike you kid, whether there is oil or no oil on people's bodies, you will rub it, and you will ask for money when you open your mouth, after so many years, I saw you for free once, and I was stunned to say that the big girl had oil on her buttocks, and she said that she wanted to rub it for free for others, hum!" You kid is really called 'oil-rubbing', specializing in rubbing the oil of big girls. ”
The "oil-rubbing" is called Zhou Shaotang, a native of the Northeast, and one of the "Eight Monsters of the Overpass". He made a living by peddling homemade degreasing soap, and as long as there were oil stains on his clothes, he immediately grabbed them, dipped them in saliva with the degreasing soap, and wiped the oil stains downward, while wiping them back and chanting: "Rub, rub, rub, rub; Drop, drop, drop, the oil is off! "The oil that was rubbed off by him doesn't cost money, but it costs money to buy soap. People who have been rubbed by him, if they think the effect is good, will buy his oil soap. Wen San'er is more familiar with him, and he deliberately spoiled him just now.
"Rubbing oil" was not angry, but just made an obscene joke with Wen San'er: "Wen San'er, you marry a wife in Ming'er, and I have to rub our sister-in-law for free." ”
"× your uncle's, stay away from Master Wen."
Wen San'er bypassed Shen San'er's wrestling field and glanced at the "kidnapping top brick".
As the saying goes: flyover handle style - just talk but don't practice. This crutch with one leg amputated below the knee is the opposite, not to mention the light practice. Regardless of the hot summer or the snowy winter, he went to the overpass every day, found a roadside, ** upper body, knelt there, lowered his eyes and palms, and carried a stack of large square bricks weighing more than 100 catties on his head, in the shape of a pagoda, about two meters high. There was a piece of paper pressed on the ground in front of him, which read: "The kidnapper asks for money, depends on the sky for food, the good man is merciful, and the kung fu is difficult to practice." When he had enough money for a day's food, he unloaded the bricks one by one. At this time, people can see a fist-sized pit on the top of his head, which shows that kung fu is indeed difficult to practice. Wen San'er also heard from the elders that the kidnapper has been on the top of the overpass for 20 years, and no one has seen him speak, who knows if he is dumb.
Wen San'er walked to the south of the Tianqiao Fair Market and saw hundreds of people in a big circle, one of whom shouted loudly, and the crowd around him burst into laughter from time to time. Wen San'er squeezed into the crowd to take a look, and saw a person standing in the venue, tall and big, with a big face, a big nose, a big mouth, a big voice, a beard, a wrinkled face, and a man in his seventies. This person wears a satin melon skin hat, a blue satin jacket robe, a yellow satin shoulder, a black velvet trousers, a blue satin mille-feuille double face shoes, a shiny and ruddy gourd and a hanging fragrant wood twisted beads, and a bulging silk "marble bag" on his left shoulder, with a short spike shaking at the bottom of the bag, and a dragon head crutch in his hand.
Wen San'er was happy when he saw it, this is the fun he wants to see, this person is one of the "Eight Monsters of the Overpass", the famous "Dabing Huang".
"Dabing Huang", formerly known as Huang Caigui, a native of Shandong, once worshipped Dong Haichuan's first generation of descendants to learn Baguazhang and Baguamen instruments when he was a teenager. When he was young, he successively served as a soldier under Zhang Yao, Ma Yukun, Jiang Guidi, Zhang Xun and other warlords, and participated in the First Sino-Japanese War in the 22nd year of Guangxu. After the failure of Zhang Xun's restoration, "Da Bing Huang" retired from Zhang Xun's "Braided Army", because his life was not settled, he fell into the overpass to sell his art, and he still practiced some martial arts at the beginning, and later simply made a living by scolding the street.
A writer described: "At the beginning of the ......'Da Bing Huang' entry, he first picked the wooden stick in his hand in front of the crotch, the image was very indecent, he swept the wooden stick left and right, swept the spectators one after another, and soon cleared out a square field, this trick and with the open road fork to hit the field is the same meaning, but in the 'village' and 'wild' is more unique, and there are more 'Da Bing Huang' characteristics. As soon as the field opened, the scolding of the street began. Three emperors and five emperors, his father, dignitaries and dignitaries, his sister of the former president, shameless villain and his sister, spitting and spitting, pouring thousands of miles...... "This public arrests who scolds whom, scolding the street sometimes witty and sometimes unbearable, scolding for an hour is never the same, scolding is dripping, scolding is so colorful, at this time the surrounding audience is excited, cheering in unison. "Soldier Huang" also hides enough civilian wisdom - his scolding never involves the people in charge at the time, and whenever he goes here, he either hints, or detours, or borrows from the past and the present, so although his words are amazing, he can avoid trouble and play for a long time. Throughout ancient and modern times, at home and abroad, the only person who makes a living by scolding the street and becomes famous is probably only "Da Bing Huang". After every scolding, he would sell his homemade mint candy, which he called: sand candy. Each pack sells a large piece. The spectators were relieved by his scolding, and of course they were willing to help him, so they donated money and bought a packet of medicinal candy.
"Da Bing Huang" with nondescript dress and jumping feet to scold the street special performance, for the Beiping newspaper reporters and even ** authorities to pay attention, so it has a certain social impact, even the patrol officers of the police station in the five outer districts have no way to take him, angering the "Da Bing Huang" is not a joke, whose name to his mouth is definitely a disaster, from the eight generations of ancestors to relatives, friends and brothers and sisters have to be next to him to let him × again.
Wen San'er nodded to "Soldier Huang", and "Soldier Yellow" winked at Wen San'er, which was regarded as a greeting. Wen San'er has known "Da Bing Huang" for a long time, because he is the biggest one among the flyover artists, he has always taken a foreign car when he goes out, and he has been in Wen San'er's car many times.
"Da Bing Huang" has changed today's road, and if he doesn't come up, he will start scolding, but he tells the story eloquently: "× his sister, I'Da Bing Huang' have also done things that are sorry for the country and the nation, and sorry for our Chinese people, I regret it, as the saying goes: one mistake becomes a thousand ......years of hatred."
An old man in the audience seemed to be very familiar with "Da Bing Huang", so he spoke in the crowd: "'Da Bing Huang', don't talk nonsense, who are you?" Still sorry for the country and the nation? Sorry for the Chinese people? I don't know, I thought you were Chairman Jiang, hey! Others say no? If you don't say anything, go home and hatch the sprouts. ”
"Da Bing Huang" seemed to accept the old man's criticism very sincerely: "Yes, yes, you are right, I am not qualified to give Chairman Jiang a night pot, and if you can give Chairman Jiang a night pot, you have to be a major general and lieutenant general to make a festival or something, right?" I'm sorry for you, we can't do this errand, when the time comes, which master will ask me, you, the major general, got it by beating little Japan? I said, I'm really sorry for you, we haven't seen little Japan, our major general poured out the night pot......"
The audience burst into laughter.
"Da Bing Huang" has the demeanor of a cross talk actor, and everyone is happy to stagger, but he is serious without the slightest smile: "Rank and look at the officials, let's get back to business, why do I say I'm sorry for the Chinese people?" And listen to me one by one, I forgot what year it was, one evening I went to visit the kiln, that day I took Wen San'er's car, Wen San'er, do you remember......"
Wen San'er in the crowd was stunned when he heard it, but he immediately woke up, he knew that "Da Bing Huang" was making fun of himself, and his stories were all improvised. Wen San'er said with a smile: "I can't remember clearly, you often take my car, but when you give less money, when it's time to pay for it, you say, brother, I'll scold you for Duan'er Street, right?" Uncle, I scolded people with one mouth, that's money. ”
The audience burst into laughter.
"Soldier Huang" encouraged Wen San'er with two sentences: "Wen San'er, I really haven't seen it, you kid is getting more and more up-to-the-road, practice opening your mouth well, don't pull the car with Ming'er, give me a godson, your father and I will pass on this kung fu to you." ”
Wen San'er said: "Do you want to ask your father to give money?" If you want to give money, I'll call now, call for a dollar, how about it? ”
"Da Bing Huang" smiled: "Of course give money, didn't you kid just say it, Lao Tzu scolded the street is money." ”
Wen San'er was speechless, and he found that he fell into the trap of "Da Bing Huang" without two sentences, and he was still tender when it came to bickering.
"Da Bing Huang" continued to tell the story: "Rank officer, let's continue to talk, I said just now, I wanted to go to the kiln but took Wen San'er's car, I didn't think that this seat would have an accident, that day I drank two taels more, as soon as I got in the car, I squinted, and after a while, I heard Wen San'er say, I opened my eyes and looked, × his sister's, what kind of place is this?" Uncle, I'm going to Hanjiatan, at this time Wen San'er said, this is Shouchang Street, it's cheap to visit the kiln here, isn't this saving money for you? Look, is this little rabbit so money-saving? Wen San'er said again, yes, you can get together for the night, I should also collect the car, I saw you back, this little rabbit cub pulled up the car and left, and flashed the uncle there......"
The old man in the crowd answered with a smile: "That place is not the place you want to go, find a car to go home." ”
"Soldier Huang" waved at the old man: "What this big brother said is true, but I couldn't go home at that time, what's the matter?" I'm sorry to say that our gun is still on fire, so if we don't release it, we can't fucking go off. ”
The audience erupted in laughter, many of whom bent down to cover their stomachs.
"Private Huang" continued to tell the story in a serious manner: "Alas! Since we're here, we're going to do it, I just found one, and I got into it with a curtain of the door, who knew that I was scared as soon as I went in, and the appearance of the ** made people uncompromising, with triangular eyes, broken eyebrows, and a mouthful of rat teeth, we haven't seen the appearance clearly, and we were ** a 'Dehele' [1]
Flattened on the bed, the skill is called Lisuo, I said in my heart, isn't this the number of our flyover Shen San'er? I didn't hear he accepted such an apprentice......"
Wen San'er couldn't help laughing, the old thing of "Da Bing Huang" really caught and scolded anyone, and even Shen San'er spared it. Shen San'er, one of the "Eight Monsters of the Overpass", is a wrestling master, who won the championship at the Nanjing National Games in 1933, and also defeated the Russian Hercules McGarov in a competition.
"Soldier Huang" took out a snuffbox from his arms, opened the lid and sniffed it, sneezed twice happily, and then got back to business: "Rank official, as for what I and the ** have done, I won't talk about it today, don't dirty the ears of the old and young masters, the story we want to tell is later." After a few days, the ** trustee brought me a message, saying that she had it, and asked me what to do? I said that if I have it, I will give birth, anyway, I have more sons of 'Da Bing Huang', raising one is to raise, and raising a group is also to raise, isn't it just a little money? Let's give. That's it, this kid is growing up day by day, I can't help it, let's give some money when we think about it, and forget it if we can't think of it. In fact, it is not easy for the child to, it is all by selling kang to pull the child up, who knows that this child grows up but does not learn well, good Chinese are not appropriate, this little rabbit cub in the Republic of China for twenty-seven years defected to the Japanese devils, hard to become a traitor, mixed with the devils to bully us Chinese, alas! Old and young masters, my soldier Huang has no face to see people, I made such a thing, I'm sorry for the Chinese people, I knew this, I should have thrown this kid to the root of the south wall to feed the flies......"
The old man in the crowd spoke again: "I said 'Soldier Huang', you have been talking for a long time, and we still don't know who your son is?" ”
"Da Bing Huang" only then shook off the "burden" with a smile: "I'm sorry, I gave the name to me, my name is Wang Jingwei, and the name is, it's called Zhaoming......"
The audience burst into laughter.
"Private Huang" threw the wooden stick in his hand to the ground and scolded: "× his sister's ......"
The audience knows that this is the unique mantra of "Da Bing Huang", as soon as he finishes scolding this sentence, it is time to sell his "sand board candy", and he has to wait for him to sell a bunch before he can listen to his new round of scolding.
Wen San'er suddenly remembered that he had been shopping around the overpass this morning, and today's meal had not yet been settled, so if he didn't hurry up and do a few jobs, he would have to be hungry today. He was about to walk away, when he saw several young men and women dressed as students coming out of the crowd, and the first young man in a Mao suit greeted "Da Soldier Huang": "Mr. Huang, hello! We are all students of Beijing Normal University, and we would like to say a few words to you......"
"Soldier Huang" doesn't seem to have received such courtesy, and other college students actually have a "Mr. Huang", which makes "Soldier Huang" very flattered, don't look at his usual scolding on the street is very neat, but when he sees a cultural person, he is a little clumsy.
"Da Bing Huang" arched his hand to the students: "You are polite, you can say anything if you have something." ”
The college student said: "Mr. Huang, we have heard that you are a banner among the Tianqiao folk artists, you are cynical, acupuncture, laughing and scolding, all of which have become articles, we have all seen articles about you in the newspaper, and the students are very impressed." We also listened to your program just now, and my question is, why do you only dare to scold the traitors of the past and not the traitors of today? ”
"Da Bing Huang" scratched his head and asked with some confusion: "I said student, I don't know who is betraying the country today, if you know, tell everyone." ”
The college student said impassionedly, "Okay, I'll tell you about it." Citizens and compatriots of Beiping, just a few days ago, a Peking University girl was raped by two American soldiers in the Dongdan playground. According to reliable sources, Tang Yongxian, chief of the Beiping City Police Department, called the Central News Agency after the incident and asked the Central News Agency to inform the newspapers not to publish the news. The Central News Agency immediately sent a notice to various newspapers in the name of the police station, claiming: "I hope that the publication of a certain college girl who was drunk and raped by US soldiers will be delayed." It is said that the matter has been negotiated between the police and the US side, and there will be a result. ......In order to prevent the publication of this news, Tang Yongxian also called Wang Zhuyu, editor-in-chief of the private Yaguang News Agency, and some newspaper reporters to the city police station and asked them to make an affidavit and promise not to publish the news. Citizens, compatriots, look at it, this is our **, they used such despicable means to try to blind the eyes of the people, but they were wrong, our press in Beiping has a conscience, just today, Beiping's "World Daily", "Beiping Daily", "Xinsheng Daily", "Jingshi Daily" and other newspapers, regardless of the Central News Agency and the police station, have published the news of the Yaguang Society. "Xinmin Daily" also compiled the relevant telegram of the Central News Agency into a news item and published it, and also told the society about their behavior of blocking the news......"
"I × his sister, is that true? Americans dare to spoil our Chinese women in broad daylight, and there is no fucking king's law? Beat him up as a brother-in-law! "Soldier Huang" scolded before he could finish listening.
The onlookers were so excited that they all scolded.
Wen San'er was also angry: "× him is a grandmother, he gelded that American soldier, he is not small, he dares to play with our Chinese girls, but against him?" ”
The college students continued to shout: "Citizens, compatriots, I would like to report to you a good news, today our students from various universities in Peiping will hold demonstrations against the atrocities of the US military together with people from all walks of life in Peiping, and I hereby call on every bloody and conscientious Chinese to stand up, participate in our march, put forward our demands to the **, and severely punish the rape criminals!" U.S. troops get out of China! To be democratic, to be free! Down with the dictatorship! ”
The citizens listened enthusiastically and joined the parade with the university students chanting slogans.
Wen San'er was also excited, he pulled the empty car and scolded behind the team, chanting slogans with college students for a while, and scolding at the top of his throat, first scolding the American soldiers, and then scolding the citizens who watched the excitement. He thinks that even Master Wen has marched on the streets, why are you grandsons embarrassed to watch the excitement? Are you still fucking Chinese? Wen San'er vaguely heard that the "Big Soldier Huang" who was walking at the front of the team was letting go of his throat and scolding the street, and there were endless foul words such as "× his sister" and "brother-in-law".
As soon as the procession reached the front gate archway, it encountered a cordon formed by the military police, and the college students and the police who led the team clashed without saying a few words, and the military police with batons in their hands fought with the students and citizens...... Wen San'er was furious, copied a few bottles of soda from the stall selling soda next to him, and threw the soda bottles into the chaotic crowd like a thrower**, he felt that the sound of the soda bottle popping was as beautiful as firecrackers, really fucking, there is nothing more pleasant in the world than a demonstration. The soda seller pounced like a leopard regardless of life or death, grabbed Wen San'er, and demanded that Wen San'er compensate for the soda money, but Wen San'er felt that this person was very ignorant, aren't you patriotic? Why can't you even give up a few bottles of soda? I think you're a fucking traitor. Wen San'er overturned the soda stall in a rage, the soda bottle smashed to the ground, the vendor cried and rushed over to rescue the remaining soda bottle, Wen San'er felt very enjoyable, and was looking around looking for a suitable guy, ready to continue to participate in the battle. At this time, I saw "Da Bing Huang" carrying his gourd and jumping on the foreign car of Wen San'er with a skill that was extremely incommensurate with his age, and waved his hand at him vigorously: "Hurry up, hurry up and go......
'What's wrong?' 'Private Huang', don't march? Wen San'er felt that she was still unsatisfied, and she didn't plan to leave at all.
"Private Huang" stomped the pedal vigorously: "Don't play, uncle, I won't play with them, good guy, what the fuck is this parade, the whole martial arts, my old bones can't help but toss so much, hurry up, didn't you see the police coming?" ”
Wen San'er then remembered that he hadn't opened for a day, this was his first job today, and he reluctantly picked up the handlebar: "'Da Bing Huang', let's talk about the ugly things ahead, you just take the car and say take the car, don't talk about 'patriotism', and don't use the street as car money, how much should we have, we have to clear it when we get to the place, otherwise, you find someone else to 'patriot'." ”
Don't look at the "Big Soldier Huang" when he scolded people, the three emperors and the five emperors dared to greet him, he was really frightened by the melee scene at this time, he took out an unprecedented piece of money and slapped it in Wen San'er's hand and said repeatedly: "Put this money in your hands first, let's return more and make up less when we get to the place, Wen San'er, I call you Uncle Wen, can you hurry up?" ”
