Farmers in the Longshan area like to dance dragons, and Ah San is a good hand at dancing dragon heads, and he can dance a set of movements with his own characteristics: a stilt on his left foot, and the dragon head nods to the left, spewing out a fire; With one tiptoe on the right foot, the faucet swings its head to the right, shooting out a stream of water; The whole dragon body constantly changes color as it dances, which is beautiful.
Sure enough, this dragon lantern team won the first prize in the performance competition of the provincial folk art festival, and the exquisite dragon dance performance deeply attracted the foreign friends who came to watch, and a bearded man named Louis tightly held the hand of the stilted Ah San and said to him enthusiastically: "OK! I invite you and your Dragon Lantern Team to my hometown for the annual Carnival!"
The next day, Louis called the village through the provincial external performance company and demanded that the list of thirteen dragon dancers and five gong and drummers of the dragon lantern team, totaling eighteen people, be implemented as soon as possible and prepare to go through the procedures for going abroad.
It is still a poor mountainous area, and it is a rare thing to go abroad. As soon as the news came out, the village chief Ma Dashuai and his wife and fat sister-in-law immediately found Ah San and said, "Your younger sister is clamoring to go abroad, this opportunity has come, you have to take us two with you to drive back to the foreign meat no matter what! '
Ah San said with embarrassment: "People only give us eighteen places, so we can't bring more." Marshal Ma said, "It's all right! I have already said that the two dragon dancers will give up their positions, and the village will compensate them. ”
Ah San still frowned, "But you can't dance dragons."
Fat sister-in-law busy interface: "This matter is easy to solve, you think, the foreigners can't figure out how many sections the Chinese dragon has." Simply, the thirteen-knotted dragon cut off two knots from the middle, and the foreigner could not see it, hee-hee.
Ah San listened and took a cold breath: "Can this dragon be chopped?"
Marshal Ma said, "I can chop!" This is not a real dragon, and it is not up to us to decide whether it should be long or short!"
Ah San shook his head at Marshal Ma and said to himself, "From the ancestors of the last eight generations to the present, I have never heard of being able to slay a dragon..."
Ma Dashuai patted him on the shoulder impatiently and said, "Don't tell the story of the old ancestors, your application for building a house is still with me, and when you come back from abroad, you will be approved immediately, okay?"
Ah San was still hesitating, and his wife Cuihua was anxious to hear it, and she was busy shouting: "Chop, this is chop!"
But it is not simple to really chop, Ah Sanji reluctantly tore open the dragon robe, the dragon's belly is filled with colored light bulbs and mechanisms, the keel is to be cut off, and the line bulb must be readjusted. Ah San was busy for most of the day, and when he was about to re-sew the dragon robe, Liu Asi, the accountant in the village, arrived.
Ah Si whispered in Ma Dashuai's ear: "Wang Zhishu has spoken, saying that if you go, he will also go, but not only if he goes, but his wife will also go." The coach was confused at first, but after thinking about it again, he would go and go, and it was not easy to do things with the relationship with the branch secretary. Looking at Liu Accountant again, he was an insider, and he simply went together, so he said to Ah San, "It seems that three sections must be cut off."
"No!" Ah San's temper came up, "I won't do it anyway if I cut three more sections!" Ma Dashuai patiently advised, "You, don't think about it: your family Cuihua is the director of the village women's congress, and it just happens to be under the management of the branch secretary." This time do not let him go together, the next year's women's congress will be re-elected, there will be no jade flowers!"
Cuihua listened, pulled Ah San over, and touched his forehead bone with her fingers: "You dead brain, which of them can offend?" Chop it!"
This is good, the thirteen dragon lanterns became eight in less than a day. Just when Ah San and Cuihua were busy and dizzy, they suddenly saw four people standing at the gate with a brush brush, one by one looking at the four people in the room with expectant eyes.
Ma Dashuai knew in his heart that they all wanted to go abroad, but this dragon would not become a dragon if he cut it down again, and he asked Ah San with embarrassment: "Can this dragon still be cut?"
Ah San said angrily, "Simply, hold a dragon head and go!" After saying that, I only felt a whirlwind of heaven and sit on the ground.
Cuihua was in a hurry, and rushed to support Ah San, shouting, "You can't fall down Wow, the dragon head is gone, no one can go!"
Ah San exhaled a breath and said, "You see these people, if you don't go, you won't succeed, you won't succeed, don't you even bring the gong and drum team, and hold a dragon head and dragon tail to the exhibition?"
When Ma Dashuai heard this, he was inspired, and slapped his thigh fiercely: "There is a way!" This horse is a monkey trick, and the skill is great! The next day, he personally went to the provincial city, found an audio-visual production company, and said that he wanted to record a tape of the gong and drum beating, and planned to use modern technology to remove the five gong and drummers. When the people from the audio-visual company heard this, they said, "Okay, I have ready-made festive gongs and drums here, and they are accompanied by electroacoustic music!" Ma Dashuai was very happy, took it back to Ah Sanjia and put it away, hey! This sound is indeed more than the gong and drummer beating well. Marshal Ma said triumphantly, "How?" That's a good idea. In this way, the problem is all solved. ”
The problem was solved, but the rhythm was different from the hand knocking, and Ah Sanqiang led the rest of the team members to re-rehearse, practiced for seven days, and finally kept up with the beat.
During these seven days, Marshal Ma was not idle, actively doing the ideological work of those who were removed, so that he could say evil, and finally compensated everyone with a thousand yuan to complete the matter.
Ah San asked him, "Where did you get so much money?"
Ma Dashuai smiled: "In order to do a good job in this activity, I had to use the money I originally planned to build a road, and I had a headache to save my head!"
Ah San listened to his heart and was very unhappy: I really regret that I promised the beard, this is good, the road can not be repaired, it is really a sin! He went home to see that Cuihua was also busy preparing to go abroad, and angrily scolded: "You guys are wishful thinking, that bearded man can't see thirteen long dragons, can't hear Chinese gongs and drums, if he is annoyed, can this thing still be done?" At that time, there will be an empty joy, and won't I become a rat or two who fell into the bellows and get angry?"
Half a month before going abroad, the bearded Louis was really relieved, accompanied by the provincial foreign performance company Shen Ke chief suddenly came to Longshan Village, saying that he wanted to see the rehearsal again.
Marshal Ma summoned the Dragon Lantern Team and all the personnel who were preparing to go abroad to the great hall, and Liu Accountant "snapped" to open the tape recorder, and suddenly the gongs and drums sounded loudly, and Ah San propped up the dragon head on his feet and danced with the eight dragons. Although the dragon's foot is fifteen meters short today, under the careful rehearsal of the stilt-footed Ah San, it still dances with a board and an eye.
Marshal Ma stood next to Louis to watch the performance, although he had always been strengthening Ah San's guts, but today his heart was also straight hairy, and he stared at Louis to see what kind of expression he had.
Louis first frowned, then shook his head, but with the beautiful electro-acoustic music and Asan's characteristic dance steps, Louis finally smiled, and the more he laughed, the happier he became. Only at this time did the stone in Ma Dashuai's heart be put down. At the end of the song, Louis quickly stepped forward, shook Asan's hand and said, "Great! Thirteen dragons have become eight knots, hand-tapped gongs and drums have become electroacoustic music, the combination of Chinese and Western, foreign use, the transformation is too coincidental! Is this your masterpiece?"
Asan couldn't tell if Louis was complimenting or sarcastic, and stuttered a bit: ".... This is us.... The masterpiece of the village chief. ”
When Louis listened, he shook Ma Dashuai's hand and shook it vigorously: "Mr. Great Village Director, to tell you the truth, I received a domestic notice, because the number of participants in this carnival is too large, the organizing committee asked the performance teams to compress the personnel, I am worried about whether your dragon can cut off five knots, I didn't think you had already cut it, and I also omitted the gong and drummer, and saved us ten places at once, I am so grateful!"
Subsequently, he excitedly said to Chief Shen: "Please Mr. Shen quickly collect the identity cards of these eight team members and prepare to apply for passports immediately." Before leaving, he greeted Ah San happily: "In half a month, I will greet you on the other side of the ocean!"
The dragon lantern team of the stilt-footed Three is really going abroad, and Louis is satisfied. But Marshal Ma was stunned there for half a day and couldn't move his steps, and his heart was like a spilled five-flavor bottle that couldn't say what it tasted like. #Headline##Story##故事头条 #
