Tuanfeng has many temples and temple fairs. If you count them carefully, there are no less than 20 temples and no less than 25 temple fairs. Among them, the three temples with a longer history, better architecture, and more incense are Zijinshan, Taijinshan, and Wanjinshan; the activities with greater momentum, stronger ethnic colors, and more cultural atmosphere are the land fair on February 15, also called the pavilion fair, and the dragon boat fair on May 15, also called the horse fair. The two temple fairs are recorded as follows: The land fair on February 15 is the combination of the two fairs before and after. The former is the "Xinghui": from the night of the 15th day of the first lunar month to the 30th day of the first lunar month, it lasts for half a month. Every night, the whole town is divided into three Jia, namely the first Jia, the second Jia, and the seventh Jia, and rehearses in sequence. The latter is the "Zhenghui": from February 15th to February 20th, it lasts for six days (some years are limited to three days) and is also rehearsed in sequence during the daytime of the three Jias. There are two ways to rehearse the Xinghui. One is to use people to dress up as historical characters and ride on horses to travel through the streets of the town; the other is to use people to dress up as short story characters, but without riding horses, they walk on the ground, act and tell the story. Just like the story on horseback, they walk through all the streets of the town. The story on horseback is called "horse story" and the story on the ground is called "ground story". The ground story goes in front, and the horse story goes in the back, and finally a set of gongs and drums, big pendants and other musical instruments are used to end. The main meeting is also called Tiaoge. What is Tiaoge? It is a story setting that can be changed. The people who play the Tiaoge story are all children from wealthy families aged three to thirteen or fourteen, regardless of gender. The main meeting does not play ground stories, but all Tiaoge. Each Jia plays a role every year, roughly between ten or eleven or twelve, sometimes more. At least eight or more should be held. In between, there are music with big pendants and gongs or several sets of gongs and drums. Every time they come to a big store, the Tiaoge will change the stage and perform tricks, and the store owner will give gifts. Horse stories, earth stories and pavilion stories are performed every year and are very flexible. The stories of the event are renewed every day, and the pavilion stories are renewed every year, and the planning is kept very secret. At the beginning, the first performances were mostly "Going to the Meeting with a Single Sword", "Li Yuanba Hammers Siping Mountain", "Jiang Ziya Goes Down the Mountain", "Fishing in Weishui" and other programs, which encouraged and inspired other families with "qi" to attract each family to play. Then they arranged programs such as "Grandma Liu Enters the Grand View Garden" (seeing the world), "Yang Gun Hands Over the Gun" (father teaches his son to play), "Tianshui Pass" (receiving apprentices), etc., to let the other party see their own kung fu, which is for me to teach you to play. Then they performed programs such as "Encircling the Beach", "Scolding Wang Lang", "Fishing and Killing the Family", "Fighting Ma Yao", "Fighting Ma Chao", etc., to attack, satirize, and even "ridicule" each other to anger the other party. If some of the A's meetings are not effective or discouraged, the other party will perform programs such as "Fishing for Turtles", "Famen Temple", "The Shit Collector Playing with the Thrush" to spur them on and urge them to hold the meeting with all their heart and soul. When the meeting is about to end, everyone will perform programs such as "Three Religions Drafting the List of Gods", "Guangchengzi Visiting the Biyu Palace Three Times", "Ancient City Meeting", "Kong Ming Going to Jiangdong" to encourage each other and work together to hold a good meeting. In the end, each family will jointly hold programs such as "Guanyin Sweeping the Clean" to show that each family is dedicated to holding a good meeting. As for the story of lifting the pavilion, you cannot satirize, attack, or abuse each other. The story of lifting the pavilion should be auspicious, congratulatory, rich and noble, heroic, and other stories. But one thing must be done: the story must be lively (dynamic and changeable), and the story must be timely and market-oriented, and not fall into the old rut. The Dragon Boat Meeting on May 15th is also called the Horse Meeting (horse racing). Like the Land God Meeting in February, it is organized by three families (A), namely: the first family plays on May 15th and 16th, the second family plays on May 17th and 18th, and the seventh family plays on May 19th and 20th.
