"Good morning, Elder Chen"

"Good morning, Elder Chen"

......

Stepping into the rudder building of the beggar gang Yuhang Mansion, the rudder disciples he met stopped to greet Chen Fang one after another. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info held a meeting yesterday to announce the identity of Chen Fangke as an elder, and all the disciples of the rudder participated, and Chen Fang's young face left a deep impression on the disciples of the rudder.

Elder Ke Liao is equivalent to the existence of six bags of disciples, and for ordinary disciples who divide the rudder, they are all existences that they look up to, and many of them may not be able to reach this height in their lifetimes.

The disciples who greeted Chen Fang all looked very humble, and their eyes looked at Chen Fang with curiosity and envy and awe.

"Okay, good morning..."

After all, it was the first day of work, and Chen Fang came very early, and it was not yet 7 o'clock in the morning when he arrived at the rudder building. Facing the greetings of the rudder disciples, Chen Fang also responded with a smile one by one.

In addition to the welcoming disciple at the front desk, the rudder disciples who greeted him had some impressions after meeting him yesterday. The rest of Chen Fang basically didn't know each other, and the enthusiasm was good, but the respectful appearance of the rudder disciples made Chen Fang very uncomfortable.

The place where the lotus flower falls is on the third floor, and the place is very wide, with a full 4,000 square meters, which is specially vacated by the rudder.

Chen Fang had already been here yesterday, and he came to the study room on the third floor.

It may be because he came relatively early, Huang Yuntian and the 100 disciples who studied Lotus Fall with him have not yet come, and there is no figure on the entire third floor, which seems to be very quiet.

After finding a place to sit down, another dedicated rudder disciple went upstairs to make a cup of tea for him.

Chen Fang drank tea and played with his mobile phone, waiting a little boredly for the arrival of Elder Huang Yuntian and the 100 disciples who studied Lotus Fall with him.

It wasn't until more than an hour had passed that Huang Yuntian arrived late with 100 disciples.

"Elder Chen, I just heard from the welcoming disciple downstairs that you have been here for more than an hour, and you have been waiting for a long time!"

As soon as Huang Yuntian entered the door and saw Chen Fang, he hurriedly came to his side and said.

"It's okay, it's okay, it's the first day of work, come early mainly to get familiar with the environment"

Chen Fang snorted.

In fact, Chen Fang's time to teach the lotus flower fall is completely in accordance with his intentions, considering that the first day of work was yesterday, he and Huang Yuntian finalized, and started teaching at 8 o'clock today.

It was still about ten minutes before 8 o'clock, and Huang Yuntian and the 100 disciples who were studying Lotus Fall were not late.

"Elder Chen, when do you see when we start?"

After the politeness, Huang Yuntian asked Chen Fang.

The podium was prepared yesterday, and the 100 disciples who came to study also sat under the podium, and everything was ready.

"Let's get started now"

Chen Fang said and walked up to the podium very simply.

Facing the burning gaze of 100 disciples, Chen Fang did not stop and naturally walked to the center of the podium.

"Everyone already knew my identity yesterday, and my main task is to teach you the lotus fall, and I won't say much nonsense. Now it's time to start teaching everyone."

Chen Fang didn't talk nonsense, and after taking the stage, he went straight to the point.

"Speaking of Lotus Fall, I first have to tell you about the origin and history of Lotus Fall. Lotus fall in history is known as "blind play" or "beggar play", in history are blind beggars begging and singing play, the content is mainly to persuade the world, promote good and punish evil, karma, ask for alms, auspicious gloss. Because the blind worship Buddha from the good, and the lotus is the symbol of Buddhism, the blind singing is mostly two people in a team, a singing gang, each holding an evergreen branch, decorated with many red paper flowers, for the "lotus" shape, between the branches with a string of thread money, for shaking, "shudder, shudder" sound, help beat the beat, so the name "lotus fall", also called the lotus or cash cow. Over time, people only knew about the blind man's play and forgot the original name of the song "Lotus Fall". In order to taboo the blind, people who are a little more gentle are renamed Photon Play, so "Lotus Fall" has the name of "Photon Play". ”

"Lotus falls are popular in Beijing, Tianjin, Hebei and other places. Originated from the "scattered flower music" in the Tang Dynasty and the Five Dynasties, it was the earliest warning song sung by monks to promote Buddhist teachings. During the Song Huizong period, the art of lotus fall was flourishing among the people, and the main singers changed from monks to beggars.

Chen Fang explained the origin of the lotus flower falling in a sprinkled manner, Huang Yuntian and the beggar gang disciples who listened to the lecture were very fascinated and surprised, these 100 disciples and Huang Yuntian, the elder of the rudder, were all music lovers, Chen Fang's explanation was unheard of by them, so they were fascinated by it.

In addition, they were surprised that this Elder Chen was so young and knew so much. In addition, during the Song Dynasty, Lotus Fall was once popular among the beggars. Almost none of the 100 of them knew the origin of the lotus fall, and they didn't even know that there was such a magical folk art as the lotus fall before the lotus fall sung in the small commodity market was spread.

"There are two types of performances: singles and color singing. The single song is sung by only one person, and the lyrics are sung in a narrative style; the color singing is performed by two or three singers, divided into two roles, Dan and Ugly, subcontracted to catch the corner, slightly like an opera, with heavy gags and jokes, in order to laugh and have fun. ”

"The lotus flower falls among the people, and there are factions due to the identity of the singer and the form of singing. All organizations that are sung by children are called "Qingmen", and the classes of professional artists are called "Hunmen". These two factions are also collectively referred to as "Xiaokou Lotus Falling", and what my beggar sings is called "Dakou Luozi" or "Daban Luozi". ”

"The tune of the lotus falling is relatively simple, with only upper and lower sentences. Commonly used plate eyes include "slow three eyes", "stacking board", "loose board" and so on. The tone is divided into "flat tune" and "sad tune", and there are also specific tunes such as "crying willow", "turning in the clouds", and "fishing for the moon under the sea". Usually at the beginning of a singing, there must be a "wrestling", also called "shouting down". ”

After talking about the history of the origin, Chen Fang talked about the singing method and performance form of the lotus flower.

"Elder Chen, the tune you just talked about the lotus falling is relatively simple, with only the upper and lower sentences. But I find it difficult to listen to what you said later, so I find it difficult, can Elder Chen give us a specific demonstration?"

As soon as Chen Fang paused, some disciples below raised questions.

"Yes, Elder Chen will show us something!"

......

This disciple's question obviously represented the doubts of most of the people below, including Huang Yuntian, who looked at Chen Fang eagerly, hoping that Chen Fang could demonstrate on the spot.
