070 The fire dragon prays to the sky

There are two very important festivals in Huanhai Township, in addition to the pavilion of the Lantern Festival, the other is the fire dragon praying for the sky.

The sound of gongs and drums in front of him was huge, and every mallet and drum seemed to be able to knock into people's hearts.

The fire dragon dancing behind is even more majestic.

The dragon head that was lifted high weighed eight or nine pounds, the dragon head was at least two meters above the ground, and the dragon ball that followed in front was a brazier supported by three woods, and the structure was cleverly designed, no matter how the strong man dancing the dragon ball fiddled, the brazier would not collapse, but the sparks and gray flames in the brazier would be sprinkled.

The dragon body of Jianghai Village is longer than that of other villages in Huanhai Township, reaching 25 meters, and requires more than 20 strong men to lift the pole.

Except for the silk cloth where the nodes are connected, the rest of the dragon's body is made of paper, which is propped up with bamboo strips, so that it can be burned in the fire after nightfall.

Therefore, the dragon dance is very difficult for the two big men who are in charge of the dragon head and the dragon ball, and it is also an extreme test of tacit understanding, so as not to let the sparks in the dragon ball fall into the dragon body and burn the fire dragon in advance.

The sound of gongs and drums came all the way, and the crowd retreated to both sides.

Uncle Mo raised the camera and clicked dozens of photos.

Seeing Sun Bailu, who had been writing on the paper with his head bowed on the side, Uncle Mo said, "Little beauty, is your family inside?" ”

Sun Bailu said "um", and said while writing: "Sun Chenghua is following on the side, and Sun Daqian is at the end." ”

Sun Chenghua is one of the replacement hands of the dancing dragon head, there are three dragon head hands, after all, you have to walk around the entire Huanhai Township, and they are all the way up and down the hill, and the dragon head weighing eight or nine pounds must be lifted more than two meters high, and people must not be wasted with their feet.

Sun Daqian was also a dancer when he was young, but now his age has gone up after all, so it's a little easier to be in the back.

Uncle Mo said: "Sun Chenghua is your eldest brother? Sun Daqian is your father? ”

"Hmm."

"Why do you even call your dad by name?"

Sun Bailu smiled at him: "Because I'm a hillbilly, we hillbillies are like this." ”

“……”

Yu Fushu, who had been looking at the front, frowned when he heard this, and looked towards Uncle Mo.

Uncle Mo said in a low voice: "Little sir, I haven't called her like this in front of her, I swear!" ”

Sun Bailu glanced at them, pursed her lips and smiled, lowered her head and continued to write.

Suddenly, firecrackers began to be set off in front, and a series of firecrackers were thrown on the ground, crackling and exploding.

The flames dispersed all of a sudden, the air was full of gunpowder smell, white smoke rose up, and the fire dragon began to dance in this "cloud", flying obliquely left and right, suddenly low-pitched, and then suddenly soaring into the sky, light and vigorous, wide amplitude, full of strength.

The children screamed and cheered, and the crowd applauded.

Uncle Mo looked at it and exclaimed: "The momentum is good!" ”

Yu Fushu Yu Guang saw that the girl who had been writing with her head down also raised her head, looked directly at the big fire dragon, and said lightly: "I thought you didn't like to read it." ”

Sun Bailu looked at the big dragon that was soaring through the clouds, and his eyes were stunned: "I also thought I didn't like it." ”

In his previous life, how the fire dragon Qitian slowly disappeared, Sun Bailu didn't remember.

In short, there are fewer and fewer people in the whole Huanhai Township, young people go out, the elderly stay alone in empty villages and empty houses, there are not a few people left in the whole lively long street, and those grievances and joys seem to be really eliminated by the years.

"Is your uncle here?" Yu Fushu asked.

"Yes," Sun Bailu looked at the dragon tail, "Uncle is in the last few, and now he is dancing the dragon." ”

Yu Fushu said "um" and looked sideways at the fire dragon.

He inadvertently asked, but he could see that she didn't like her brother and her father, and her uncle was still an uncle, not Xia Zhihong.
