Chapter 12: Jin Duanlei (2)

Play? I was stunned for a moment, Master Dare to Love heard someone singing below?

Sure enough, I settled down and listened carefully, there was indeed a trace of subtle music coming from, this music was very jerky, I heard the old people sing Allegro when I was in Eighteen Mile Village, and I really haven't seen the real opera, I have only heard that people who have seen the world say that people who sing opera are acting like what, the emperor will sing a hundred schools of thought, ghosts and gods are like immortals, and my mind is together, I hurriedly smiled and asked: "Master, how do you know what kind of excerpt it is?" Have you heard of it? ”

This remark seemed to evoke the master's long-lost memories, he nodded lightly, and said: "As a teacher, I traveled all over the world in the early years, and I have heard a little about the folk customs and folk customs of various places, especially the famous rivers and mountains around the world, as well as the rural customs and traditions of various places, of course, opera is also among them, well, it just so happens that we came to Shanxi today, and it is not early, so I will stay here for one night for the time being, and let you see the rural opera of Shanxi." ”

As we walked, Bu Yique also said with great interest: "Yang Daochang, I have also heard Master say that there are many types of opera in the north, except for the well-known Peking Opera Kun dialect, Henan Opera tunes, and Shandong drums, I don't know what kind of singing voices are in Shanxi, by the way, what kind of tone is sung in this village?" ”

The master was slightly stunned, smiled rarely, and said: "Well, it seems that Li Daochang's trip back then also has a lot of insight into the folk customs and folk customs of various places, in fact, the folk singing voices in various places are very varied, but this excerpt is widely spread in various places, the so-called excerpt play, is to take a piece of its essence in the whole play and sing, a fold is a section, so that it is convenient to sing, but also let the audience hear the taste more, to say that the music of Shanxi, roughly Pu Opera, Jin Opera, North Road Bangzi is more representative, Most of the singing voices in the village in front of me are Jin operas, in fact, I don't know much about this, let's go and take a look. ”

This time I am deeply impressed by Bu Yique's knowledge, I didn't expect him to know nothing about Taoism, but he is so familiar with human affairs, so I can chat with the master for a few words, I myself feel that I am similar to the turtle in the river, living like a soil fool, but I believe that Bu Yiqi will be able to know these insights sooner or later, and even, far beyond him......

This mountain village is also considered to be a wealthy appearance, the pastoral land is all well organized, ravines, fences, cattle, sheep, pigs and dogs, and every family is a large courtyard and a small courtyard, at least in my opinion, it is much more prosperous than our eighteen-mile village.

Strangely, although there is a sound of singing in the village, there is no lively cheering and no noise, could it be that the population here is sparse? Or is it just ordinary to sing a big drama here?

These are not known, and there is no way to inquire, because we walked all the way into the village, and we didn't even meet a big living person, except for the cooking smoke lit by every house, which can prove that this is not a deserted village, Master and Bu Yique are very interested in singing in it, so they have been walking to the village, although I want to say that I will talk to my family about staying overnight, and then get some food or something to cushion my stomach, and then go to the play, but in order to show that I am not averse to singing big operas, I had to follow.

There are hundreds of families in the small mountain village, after passing through an alley, finally in the open space in the center of the village, I saw a grand opera pile, this look made me stunned, I saw that the people on the stage were wearing strange clothes, some flowers and some white, anyway, they are not the kind of clothes worn by modern people, maybe this is the style of clothes worn by the ancients often said by the old people.

"Babbling ......"

Although I couldn't understand what they were singing, the rhythm was very elegant and graceful, sometimes elongating the vocal cavity, sometimes the voice was paused, and I giggled on a whim, from time to time.

I lost my mind, but I didn't know that the master was wandering around the big drama pile, and suddenly, a cool breath blew in my face, and I was completely excited, and I looked around, only to realize that there was no one watching the play around. That...... So who is this singing for?

When I saw Master's frowning, I immediately stepped forward and asked, "Master, why don't the villagers here come out to watch the play?" Look how nice this song is. ”

Master inexplicably stretched out his hand to calculate, and after a while, he suddenly withdrew his hand and said with a solemn face: "Let's step aside!" ”

"Huh?" I was stunned, and Bu Yique on the side also looked at Master in confusion, I scratched the back of my head and asked, "Master, this place is so loose, and we don't occupy anyone's land, why do you want to step aside?" ”

The master suddenly glared and said, "If you want to retreat, you will retreat!" What so much nonsense! Not good! It's too late, flash to the sideβ€”"

After speaking, the master pushed me and Bu Yique away vigorously, we were all stumbling and almost fell, just standing in front of a nearby door, and the master stretched out his hand and pinched out a finger, I couldn't see it, it was actually the grandmaster's finger, the master said, if it wasn't for some big secret spell, it was easy to ask the grandmaster to point out, this ......

I saw that the master struck the finger he had pinched out to his chest, and then walked a strange route with his feet left and right, and when he was three feet away from us, he jumped up and jumped in front of me, and at this moment, the door next to us slowly staggered a crack in the door, and sticking out his head was an old man of sixty or seventy years old, who saw us and immediately shouted in a low voice: "Stranger, come into the house!" ”

The master didn't say a word, and directly pushed me and Bu Yique into the door, and then he also followed, the old man closed the door again in a panic, and then went up the latch, I was stunned for a moment, there was a big drama singing outside, why didn't this old man let people see it, and he also didn't let his family see it, but it was strange......

I entered the courtyard, looked around, the small courtyard is not big, but the repair is very smooth and clean, the main house is a generous four green tile rooms, another kitchen, giving people a very peaceful and comfortable feeling, the main house has come out of four or five white-haired old men and a middle-aged man in his forties, the middle-aged man greeted us very enthusiastically, first looked us up and down, and then smiled at the master: "How many gentlemen have practiced here, right?" My name is Ma Huanqing, and I am the village chief of Saddle Village here. ”

I looked at the Dharma bag on my waist, maybe he saw the Taiji diagram on it to recognize our identity, and immediately the master hugged his fists and smiled: "Village Chief Ma, we passed through here, and saw that it was getting late, so we came to disturb us for a night, I don't know if it is convenient for you to be here?" ”

As he spoke, the master looked at the big opera pile outside the gate meaningfully, who knew that the face of the village chief Ma was tight, and it seemed that a reluctant smile could no longer hide the gloom, and said: "Alas, as long as a few gentlemen don't dislike our poor people here, just eat and live here, please talk in the house first." ”

Before we entered the house, suddenly an old man seemed to be a little unwelcoming to us, and whispered two words in the ear of the village chief Ma, saying that it was a whisper, in fact, we all heard it, and it seemed that most of it was also said to us, "Huanqing, your family is now on this matter, you can't avoid this catastrophe, why do you still stay with a few strangers, if it is contaminated with something unclean, then ...... Alas! ”

Village Chief Ma squeezed out a smile on his ugly face, and also lowered his voice and said, "Sixth Uncle, I understand what you mean, but aren't we doing this 'lantern show' to do good deeds and accumulate virtue?" These people look like they are also the outfits of cultivators, maybe this is also an opportunity for our family, so let's do good things in pairs, don't say it......"

I only muttered in my heart what they were talking about, but now I am more and more interested in the big drama outside, and while they are grinding, I hurriedly came to Master's side and asked in a low voice, "Master, why didn't anyone watch the big drama just now?" And why don't you let us see it? ”

Master glared at me slightly, and reprimanded me in a low voice, "Talky! That's not for people to sing! ”

I opened my eyes suddenly, and suddenly understood why I was just now, dare to love this big drama is sung to God? Or is it for ghosts?

Village Chief Ma welcomed us into the main house, and then pointed to the old man who had opened the door for us before and said with a smile: "This is my father, these are the elders of our village, please sit down and talk."

The master first greeted several old men with fists, and then sat down peacefully, and as soon as he sat down, he was puzzled: "Dare to ask Village Chief Ma, we didn't see any temple ancestral hall when we came, just now I counted casually, and I have found that when I first arrived in You, there was Yin Qi swept out, and when you arrived, there was an unknown Yin Qi permeating the surroundings, I don't know if you are singing this drama to worship God or ......."

Village Chief Ma immediately sighed deeply when he heard this, and I found that not only Village Chief Ma, but even several old people in the second seat sighed for a long time, and after a while, Village Chief Ma opened his mouth: "Don't hide it from Mr. Big, this golden thunder we invited is for the purpose of suppressing ghosts!" ”

"Oh?" The master looked shocked, and hurriedly asked, "Why do you suppress ghosts?" By the way, you have a prosperous yang here, and the house is stable, and the mountain dragon energy is gathered, it should be good every year, why do you want to suppress ghosts? What the hell is the town? ”

As soon as the master said this, he immediately stared at the old men of the four seats and the village chief Ma, and looked at the master in unison, and the village chief Ma was shocked and said: "Mr. Big, you are really a god, you can see the feng shui qi number here at a glance, and you can also see the yin and yang Lan qi here of us, these, we have invited a lot of yin and yang big gentlemen nearby to see it!" ”

Village Chief Ma's praise didn't make the master's face make any waves, and he didn't take the stubble, Village Chief Ma smacked his lips, and then said happily: "Since Mr. Big has this ability, he must be a hidden master, then I will tell Mr. Big about the strange things in our Saddle Village, to say that the villagers of ordinary people here have nothing to do, but as long as someone adds a new Ding, and as long as it is a family that has given birth to twins, something will definitely happen, and it is a big deal!" No, my eldest child just added a new child three days ago, and it happens to be a dragon and phoenix fetus! ”
