Chapter 173 The spiritual world of ghosts
If you change relatives, both families can save a sum of money, but if you also want a matchmaker, there will also be a wedding, but it must be held on the same day, and the marriage and marriage will be carried out at the same time, so as to prevent one party from escaping and regretting the marriage.
If you change relatives, both families can save a sum of money, but if you also want a matchmaker, there will also be a wedding, but it must be held on the same day, and the marriage and marriage will be carried out at the same time, so as to prevent one party from escaping and regretting the marriage. Thirty years ago, I often saw this kind of marriage exchange.
Most of the changes can be successful, but there will also be girls who play tricks, seeing that the brother or brother "changed" back to the wife, the raw rice has matured, but they don't want to go to the other party's house to be a daughter-in-law, and the phenomenon of escaping marriage occurs, and finally leads to the failure of the change of parents, which is most likely to happen in the wedding is not a simultaneous change.
Although the success rate of the new change is very high, the married life is average, or even very bad. Because there is no emotional foundation between the two parties before marriage, and the man cannot find a wife, in addition to the family's economic reasons, it is also poor, or because of her disability, the woman often has a sense of imbalance in her heart, which leads to the breakdown of the family in the future. Because there are many family misfortunes caused by the change of parents, as long as there is a little possibility, the average family will not "change parents" for their children.
The so-called elopement is a man and woman who are trapped in love and cannot be married through a normal marriage for various reasons, and run away from home to start a family without permission.
Elopement already existed in the pre-Qin period, and the government also encouraged men and women who were not able to marry and could not afford to pay financial gifts to combine through the form of "Ben". Later, there were many reasons for elopement, such as elopement due to forced marriage by family, elopement due to mutual affection, and so on. Elopement deviates from traditional marriage ethics and is very abnormal, so in the past, some places called elopement between women and men "weird" behavior. And out of the need to maintain face, the female family will let out the wind that their daughter was deceived, which made people "abduct and run away".
In the end, most of the elopement marriages can be forgiven and recognized by the parents, and after three or five years, they will come back to see their parents with their children, for the sake of the children, the parents who swore not to recognize the marriage will also acquiesce to the children's face.
Buying and selling marriages and changing relatives have been prohibited, but elopement has not disappeared until now, not only has it not disappeared, but it is increasing. Because it does not violate the marriage law, modern men and women who dare to elope may also be praised, which is regarded as an act of defending love and marriage, and is a manifestation of marriage freedom and civilization.
Marriage is the choice of marriageable men and women, and "being a yin relative" is a marriage act that occurs after death. In the past, it was superstitious that lonely men and widows would make trouble in the underworld, making the family restless, and after marrying a yin relative, they would "not make trouble".
Yin relatives are also called ghost marriages, and being yin relatives should have been done for men and women who have been engaged and died unexpectedly, but later it may not be. Generally, after the death of unmarried men and women, even underage children will be related to them. The parent-teacher meeting asks someone to agree, or directly proposes to the other party to bury the remains of men and women in the same cave as husband and wife, and bury some rouge pollen, as if it were a happy event. Since then, the two families have married and will walk around each other during the New Year's holidays.
"In addition, the life of ghosts is also colorful, it is very common to come out and jump out or something when there is nothing to do, and sometimes I come out from time to time to listen to an opera," Su Ling shook his head and said.
"Ghost listening? They actually listen to the play," Pu Xingwen expressed doubt.
It is understood that there are two reasons why the troupe likes to be haunted, one is because ghosts like to listen to operas, and many operas are very quiet, which can bring people a lot of quiet artistic conception and feeling, and the same is true for ghosts.
Another reason is that in the past, the identity of the opera was very low, and according to legend, many operas would die unnaturally for some reasons when they were in the folk before, which led to many dead operas being very resentful, and their souls did not disperse after death, wandering in the world, and they would instinctively approach when they heard the opera.
For this reason, just like many halls will offer to Guan Erye, many opera troupes will offer Huaguang Patriarch as their ancestor to ensure the safety of the troupe.
And in some places, the local families will bring their ancestors' spiritual seats when the opera troupe sings at night, so that these ancestors can listen to the opera and listen to the music, usually giving the troupe a lot of money, and the spiritual position is placed in a position near the front and center of the stage.
In the past, in the Peking Opera industry, it was called "haunted" when an actor habitually made a mistake in a certain place, and no matter how big the horn was, it could be haunted. Let's talk about Mr. Tan Xinpei, the king of Tan, his old man likes to be haunted in "Wujia Po". There are a few sentences in "Wujia Po" ("Gaikou", in fact, it is "Jiekou", Hubei people pronounce the word "Jie" as gĂ i, and when they arrived in Beijing, they were pronounced as Gaikou by the artists):
Xue Pinggui (white): Let me ask you, this father's debt?
Wang Baochuan (white): Zi also.
Xue Pinggui (white): What about the husband's debt?
Wang Baochuan (white): Wife, wife doesn't care!
When Mr. Tan reads the sentence "What about the husband's debt", he will always read it as "What about the wife's debt?" Tsing Yi couldn't take the next sentence. Mr. Tan Xinpei's requirements for art are very strict, others pronounce "know" as "know great" on stage, and he still holds on to it, he has to magnify the mistake in his mouth and repeat it again, it is his turn to make mistakes, I really don't know how he dealt with it.
Tan Xinpei has a sentence in "Lianying Village" that reads "Sun Quan worships Lu Xun as handsome", and he often recites it backwards, becoming "Lu Xun worships Sun Quan as handsome". Fortunately, Boss Tan is very popular, and if he makes a small mistake, the audience doesn't take it seriously.
Mr. Mei Lanfang also made mistakes, once he played "Mulberry Garden Club", Luo Funu's appearance is the same as that of Tsing Yi in "Three Niang's Godson", and her appearance is similar, they all come up in a small gong to play the introduction. He went on stage thinking that he was playing "Sanniang's Godson", and he read Shoubing at the exit, and just read a word, he suddenly realized that he was playing "Mulberry Garden Club" today, and he immediately changed his mouth to lock his eyebrows after Shouhou.
Luck is really not bad, the introduction of "Three Niang's Godson" is to lock the eyebrows, this sorrow and guard, the rut is the same, and then the tone is elongated, and most of the audience haven't heard it. The small mistake scared Boss Mei into sweating, and he didn't remember to sing the wrong play until he finished singing the second word, and it was going to be a good day to usher in.
However, having said that, Mr. Mei is very cautious in acting, and he doesn't always make mistakes in this place, so it's not "haunted".
At that time, the artists in the Peking Opera industry were sincerely united, and when they saw other people's mistakes on stage, they often tried to try to remedy them. This also brought rare tidbits to the audience, which can often make people laugh, so it has been widely used in cross talk. This kind of joke is not necessarily a real person, most of them are made up by cross talk actors based on Liyuan anecdotes.
Mr. Gao Xiaolin, a senior disciple of Master Ma Sanli, a famous crosstalk artist of the former Anhui Quyi Troupe, once played such a joke, saying that once a famous old student played "Shilang Visits the Mother" in Tianjin, and Mr. Ha Baoshan played Yang Liulang for it.
The old student Yang Shilang should sing: "Go to see Lao Xuantai in the back hall." But I don't know how the ghost makes the god send, this old student actually forgot the words on the spot, Ha Baoshan saw that the situation was not good, and hurriedly sang the next sentence: Report to Lao Xuantai on behalf of his brother. Ha Baoshan saved an old student, and the people who didn't know it were blinded. Mr. Ha did not let this old student freeze on the stage, and the drama was commendable.
In addition, there is a joke of "Wen Zhaoguan", saying that a certain big horn played "Wen Zhaoguan" once, and he was about to finish the play, only the sword was left unhung, but he happened to have a stomach trouble with the bag at this time, and he was in a hurry to go to the toilet, so he said to a rickshaw driver next to him, and asked him to help take down the sword on the wall and hang it on the waist of the big horn.
But the driver who pulled the cart was a layman, and when he went to the toilet with the bag, he took off the waist knife hanging on the wall against the sword and hung it on the body of Jiao'er, and this Jiao'er was also careless, and hurried into the field without inspection, and ate it all at once.
Jiao'er thought, I haven't opened my mouth to sing yet, why did I go wrong? That's not right! Touching his waist again, he dared to hang on the waist knife, not the sword, thinking that something was wrong here, no wonder it was good to eat, rather wear it than wear it wrong, fortunately, this corner has stage experience, and he has not been upside down.
Originally, Wu Zixu, a person in the play, sang "Day after day, my heart seems to be fried in oil, and I can't repay my parents for their injustices."
Now he is hanging a waist knife, and it is even better to sing this word again, so he changed the word on the spot: "After one day and another, my heart seems to be pouring oil, and I spent all the way to the plate, and I sold the sword and bought the knife." The "before the words" rut was changed to the "remote strip" rut, which not only rhymed with the rut, but also conformed to the situation of the characters, attracting applause from the audience.
There is also a tale of tricks. is talking about the performance of "Empty City Strategy", Sima Yi led his troops to attack Xicheng, Zhuge Liang lacked soldiers and major generals, and made an empty city to scare Sima Yi away.
Unfortunately on this day's performance, one of Sima Yi's dragon sets (little soldiers) was sick, and now he has pulled a mallet (never been on stage) to play this dragon set, and it is still a four flags. The dragon set is divided into four flags, the head flag, the second flag, the third flag, the fourth flag, the head flag and the third flag stand on one side, and the second flag and the fourth flag stand on the other side. Then there was Sima Shi Sima Zhao, Sima Yi's two sons played, and finally Sima Yi played.
The drama let the three flags carry the four flags with this mallet, and let the four flags follow the three flags. As a result, the four flags of this mallet followed and followed, and the three flags were followed, and the dragon was set into one side and one side.
Waiting for Sima Yi to come on the stage, just in time to watch the play, it was good to call the dragon set, it was the horn who played Sima Yi, I haven't met it, I thought what's wrong, I didn't have a beard? Touch, bring it; Wearing the wrong clothes? At a glance, no, look at the stage again, heh, I'm angry, squeezing my eyes at the four flags, that means let him come over, this four flags won't pass, I still think in my heart, why should I go over, let Sima Shi Sima Zhao stand aside.
This Sima Yi was in a hurry, and when he heard the drums, he was singing, and he was singing. Sima Yi was out of luck when he heard it, so he sang it, and now made up a few words
"Come to the stage and use your eyes, I can't help the old man to be angry, in the past, I was on one side, and today I am not afraid of squeezing your eyes, so that the old man will pull you, (drag this trick) You come over to me!"
"That's what the joke says, but there is really a haunted ghost in this world who listens to a drama because of grievances, which can be regarded as useful."
Marshal Tiandu is a Chinese folk deity, but whenever the play is going to start, he will worship this marshal, let the marshal bless them when they sing or sing, they are safe and sound, the performance is smooth, and the people who worship him know that Marshal Tiandu is saved by crabs, so he does not eat crabs, and when worshipping, he must not release crabs, which is a big taboo.
At that time, it was also the Lantern Festival, and everyone outside was guessing lantern riddles and watching the lantern festival, but at this time, someone came to beat the drum and voice the grievances, and Bao Gongma ascended to the church.
Playing the role of Bao Gong, wearing costumes, putting on makeup, his eyes are staring, his eyes are blazing, his thick eyebrows are raised, and his whole body is full of heroism, which is very shocking.
Bao Gong slapped the board in surprise and shouted: "If you have any grievances, come from the truth, so that this official can be the master for you."
However, playing the squire is another play, put on makeup, knelt under the hall, and said: "My name is Chen Qiang, and I opened a hotel on the Xiangjiang joint to accept past guests, but Zhang Tian, who lived in the guest room that day, actually stole the things in my store and begged the adults to call the shots for me~"
In the next scene, Bao Gong passed on Zhang Tian to confront him and explain what happened that day.
However, the actor who played the role of God was also on stage, and Zhang Tian should also speak, but at this time, a strange wind suddenly blew, and everyone on the stage felt it, and a cold and piercing feeling poured into the bone marrow.
You must know that everyone is in the pear orchard, the doors and windows are closed, how can there be wind, this wind is also blowing strangely, and after the wind stops, the actor who plays the squire actually starts talking again.
This is an obvious mistake, and the actor who played Zhang Tian on the side whispered: "Wrong, wrong, it's time for me to sing, it's wrong......"
However, the person who played the squire didn't seem to hear it, and he actually sang it by himself, and everyone listened carefully, no, the content of this singing didn't match it at all, so I wanted to stop him and ask what was going on with this play.
However, the people next to him, some people even found suspicions, you must know that the person who plays the squire is a man, but the voice he sings is weird, listen carefully, it turns out to be a resentful female voice, the voice seems to come out of the pool, listen carefully, and even ripples, shake and shake, it can scare people miserably at that time, even the person who played Bao Gong on the stage has already found out that something is wrong, and someone once said that the haunted thing on the stage, but I didn't expect it to be true.
Speaking of which, this thing is really infiltrating, when the person who played the squire was singing, there was a faint layer of mist on the whole stage, and the whole stage was filled with mist, which made people see the real thing, but the discerning people knew that there was no smoke off the stage, but where did this smoke come from?
The person who played Bao Gong on stage was frightened, but he could roughly hear that he seemed to have grievances, and he didn't dare to slack off in his heart, so he had to continue acting, which also made everyone's hearts hang.
Bao Gong sat in front of the hall, his face was like black carbon, his face was serious, all majestic, and he patted the shocking wood: "Bang~"
After this sound sounded, it was like thunder on the ground, very explosive, and Bao Gong gestured with two fingers, and said angrily: "If there is any grievance, come quickly, if there is really a grievance, this official will definitely make the decision for you~"
You know, at this time, there was a hula, the closed window suddenly opened, and someone looked back, this day was actually lightning, thunder and lightning flickering, all flashed into the house, and at that moment, the night outside became white, and the fallen leaves outside blew into the house with a bang, and the whole stage was a strong wind, and a whirlwind was formed on the ground, blowing the hem of the clothes to hunt, and even the eyes of Bao Gong on the stage were full of horror, but these actors were dedicated after all, although they were afraid, But no one escaped, and all of them held on.
Afterwards, some people said that there was a thunderstorm outside at that time, and it felt as if it was split on the head, as if this ghost really had a great grievance, and it also made people's blood flow backwards, the vest was cold, and goosebumps on the body instantly rose.
There are even some people who are cold all over, and they feel that the temperature on the whole stage seems to have dropped a lot of degrees at that time, you must know that it was summer, and it was too late to wear costumes to be too hot, how could they have this feeling, but later someone said that the cold was gloomy and cold, which was completely different from the cold in winter, and it also made them shiver like chaff at that time.
The most terrifying thing is that the person who plays the squire is a man with a square face, but everyone saw it at the time, he turned into a melon seed face, and the whole person's appearance has changed, among which the eyes are slender, a little charming and a little resentful, and the lips are also very thin, and he looks like a short-lived ghost.
And the person who played the squire at that time, after changing into a woman's face, that face was as thin as white paper, just like the paper in the wreath shop, seeping into the bones.
The squire who was topped by a female ghost sang: "The little girl is twenty-eight years old, and the people of Henan are ......"
The female ghost babbled and sang, roughly saying that she was the daughter of a certain family, because the big family took a fancy to it, so they robbed the people's daughter, but she was unwilling, and the big family killed her in a fit of anger and buried her directly in the yard.
After Bao Gong heard this, he realized that she was a female ghost in 1270 during the Southern Song Dynasty, and she had been dead for more than 700 years, but Bao Gong was not lightly scared, so Bao Gong pretended to be calm, his hands were still trembling on the desk, and he asked tremblingly: "Where is the body hidden?" â
"Under your desk~"
When Bao Gong heard this, his legs trembled with fright, and he didn't dare to slack off, so he asked people to dig three feet into the ground, and he actually dug up a skeleton.
Now the play is over, everyone is scared, looking at the white bones in front of them, not to mention how much people are infiltrating, so they found a temple, put the bones of the female ghost into the altar, and took them to the temple to worship, and this matter is over.
As for later, everyone had a shadow in their hearts, so every time before going on stage, they would pay homage to Marshal Tiandu, and no strange things happened.
