The most important activities of Zhu Jie are playing and jumping on bronze drums. Those who dance well can get the reputation of "Drum King".

At night, all torches and lanterns will be lit, and only Yao people can dance "Xing Lang Tie Jiu Dance", including monkey encouragement, animal hunting dance, mountain opening dance, pumpkin dance, tea party, harvest dance and flower umbrella dance. After the dance, young people will sing to each other. Some young men and women formed a white-headed alliance by singing to each other, while the old people sang collectively to show their respect for Milo. After each song, they collectively raised their glasses and cheered until late at night.
