This little girl was timid when she was in the scenic spot, but she was also a very cute girl in the village.

Chen Xing smiled and said hello to his uncle and aunt.

Bai Yuzhu's father saw that Chen Xing was also coming, so he got up from the ground and asked, "Little brother has also come out, what do you think of our village?" ”

"It's beautiful." Chen Xing said.

"You speak too politely, there is nothing to see in our village, and we can't see too many things of our nationality here, if you have time, you can go to some ancient towns of the Buyi nationality."

"Oh? Is there any difference? ”

Chen Xing felt that the house here was already very distinctive, and the system recognized that this was a Buyi house.

"The turf is not good." My uncle said, "In some big towns, there are no fields in the vicinity, and the houses are also densely built, one by one, what is the saying in the city...... That's right, visual impact, haha. ”

Chen Xing listened to his uncle's description, why did he suddenly think of Miaozhai Village?

Well, maybe most of the houses here in Guizhou are built like this, and if you think about it carefully, many real Han ancient buildings are also very densely repaired, one next to the other, and it will be very dangerous in the event of a fire.

Therefore, the fire-sealing wall of the Hui school building will become an important feature of the faction building.

Bai Yuzhu went to talk to her mother.

After a few minutes, he came back and said, "The drama at the entrance of the village is a local opera, do you want to go and see it?" ”

"What is a local opera?"

Chen Xing had heard of Huangmei Opera and excerpts, but he had never heard of Tu Opera at all.

Homegrown drama?

"It's our Buyi opera, we have always called it local opera, but in fact, there is nothing special, I have seen it many times."

Every year when the Chinese New Year is approaching, those opera troupes in the city will go to the countryside to perform, and it is not only the New Year, sometimes there are festivals, activities, and you can also see free local opera performances in the town.

There is a small stage on the side of the scenic spot, and tourists can also see the performance of local opera if they are lucky.

So Bai Yuzhu really didn't think there was anything surprising, and even thought that their own national opera was not as good as Peking Opera.

Chen Xing didn't think there was anything when he heard the aunt say it before, but when he heard that it was a play by ethnic minorities, he was a little moved, and said to Bai Yuzhu: "You don't think it's interesting, but I do, I haven't seen your play before." ”

It doesn't matter if it's good or not, you always have to see something fresh.

Bai Yuzhu led the way, and the two walked towards the open space at the entrance of the village, which is a huge dam in summer and autumn, and some people will put it here when they grow too many things and the house is not enough to dry, and if there are any collective activities, the people in the village will also come here.

Now there are not a few people here, and they all bring their own benches, and a high platform is built in the front position, and the curtain behind the stage is very interesting, it is the picture of the Eight Immortals, that is, Lu Dongbin, Tie Guan Li, Lan Cai and them, the painting is very traditional and very vivid.

Lu Dongbin put his hands behind his back, holding a floating dust in his hand, and a long sword hanging behind his back, Han Zhongli showed his chest and breasts, holding a banana fan in his hand, and one carrying a gourd and holding a flower basket.

As in traditional theatre, the accompanist sits at the back of the stage with the instrument and examines it, pulling it from time to time to make a slight noise.

"It's hilarious." Chen Xing said.

"Yes, many elderly people don't like to play with mobile phones, they usually like to come here to chat, in fact, there is no such troupe here is very lively."

The people here also saw Bai Yuzhu, and after saying hello warmly, they saw Chen Xing, and their puzzled expressions immediately overflowed.

Bai Yuzhu, as the most handsome girl in ten miles and eight towns, has already had countless people beat her idea, and she has successfully married this year.

What does this handsome guy in front of him want, can't get a wife?

And it's not like a redneck, huh?

So everyone discussed it secretly, some said yes, some said no.

But because of Chen Xing's temperament, these old ladies were embarrassed to ask in person, which was also considered a clean one.

Bai Yuzhu didn't think there was anything wrong, she hadn't thought about it that much, and she would talk about next year's affairs next year.

Although I haven't seen anyone I want to marry in the future, women always have to get married.

So I happily took Chen Xing to find a place and watch the performance.

Buyi opera is a kind of folk opera, there are few inheritors, and this neighborhood is also because there is a county focused on the development of tourist towns, and the local Buyi people have spontaneously gradually developed such an opera troupe, usually performing a few times occasionally in the scenic spots, making some money.

At the same time, according to tradition, at the end of each year and the beginning of the year, the troupe will also perform in various Buyi villages to pray for the blessings of the local people.

In fact, the tradition is that it is performed during the New Year.

But there are too many places, and who doesn't want to have a good New Year? Therefore, most of the Buyi operas here are performed in the lunar month, and a small part is performed in the first month.

Soon, the repertoire began.

The opening scene is a person wearing a round, large, very strange mask to come up and read the words, and Chen Xing can't understand what he says at all.

Because these villages used to be very backward, many elderly people couldn't learn to speak Mandarin, and even couldn't speak Guizhou.

So the singing is all original.

Chen Xing didn't understand, but he also watched the excitement, especially when the person wearing the mask on the stage held a white thing and stepped on a special step, the absurdity brought by the mask and costume became more and more intense, and a very simple sense of ritual came to his face.

It doesn't feel like you're watching a play.

On the contrary, it was like watching a very primitive blessing ceremony, which gave Chen Xing a little in-depth understanding of the local minority culture.

Chen Xing thought that taking pictures was not allowed here, but Chen Xing saw that other people were also recording with their mobile phones, so he also took out his mobile phone and recorded a short paragraph, ready to send it to the circle of friends. Bai Yuzhu was curious about what he was shooting, and she also came over to take a look.

The first part of the performance came to an end, and the actor with the huge mask went down, followed by three people who came up.

This appearance is obvious, and Chen Xing knew at a glance that they were the three immortals of Fu Lushou.

It seems that this is really a blessing ceremony in the Buyi culture.

Chen Xing felt that he had guessed well, and the corners of his mouth naturally turned up.

Many folk prayer rituals, in order to increase entertainment, have to make a little more entertainment effect, so that while entertaining the gods, there is also a little entertainment attribute, so that most people like to watch and understand.

Those operas that do not seek change have long disappeared in the torrent of the times.

"Want to take a few shots?" Chen Xing asked suddenly.

"What?" Bai Yuzhu didn't understand what Chen Xing meant for a while, and said in wonder.

"You can help me take a few pictures, take a picture of me looking at this." Chen Xing pointed to the stage.

Most of the time he travels alone, and he can't find someone to help him take a photo - except for today, let Bai Yuzhu take a few photos for himself, and at the same time, he can also see if she is really talented. (End of chapter)
