Salt water bee cannon is a famous local folk activity during the Lantern Festival in Taiwan Province Province, located in Yanshui Town, Tainan County. The so-called bee cannon refers to many cupolas.

The large launching battery is called the "bee cannon" because it is lit like a swarm of bees nesting in it.

The once prosperous Yuejin Port refers to today's Salt Water Town. One House, Two Deer, Three Mongs, and April Tianjin tells the story of Taiwan Province Province in the Qing Dynasty.

Four major commercial ports. (After "One House, Two Deer, Three Mongols", add the statement that "Tianjin in April" is a literary and historical worker in salt water area. This statement is also true

It can be seen in literary and historical workers' associations in other areas of Taiwan Province Province, such as "One House, Two Deer, Three Monggars and Four Stupid Ports".

Because the salt water in Cheng Zhen, Hong Kong, Bazhangxi and Jishuixi respectively flow through the salt water from the north and south directions, passing through Bazhangxi, which turned out to be a salt water town in an inland port.

From the cloth bag to the Taiwan Province Strait, the prosperity of trade brought a scenery to the salt water, and also created many well-known businessmen, which were called contacts at that time.

Businessmen engaged in trade on both sides of the Taiwan Province Strait are "suburban businessmen". It also proved the prosperous scene of leaping into the harbor at that time. But for centuries.

Land reclamation and river siltation are serious, the port function is no longer, the merchant shipping channel has become a regional drainage system, and Yuejin Port has become a collection place for domestic sewage in Yanshui Town.

Pond.

Yanshui town is near the sea, and most of the people who live there are fishermen who make a living by begging for the sea. They come from the coast of China and Fujian. The activity of bee cannon may have started in Yanshui Town in Guangxu 1 1 year of Qing Dynasty.

Infected with the epidemic of the plague, residents prayed for peace to the local "Guan Jun" (Guan Gong) according to folk customs, and according to the divination results, on the day of the Lantern Festival,

In the evening, please leave the temple to make way for Zhou Cang, close the emperor's back, set off firecrackers all the way and walk around the town for one night. Later it evolved into a tradition.

At first, the villages in the town set off firecrackers for three days around the Lantern Festival, and then gradually changed to the form of setting off firecrackers in turn in each village.

Recently, the salt water bee cannon has become a large-scale activity planned by the government to restore the ancient streets in line with history and sightseeing. In 2006, Tainan County Government issued an announcement.

Sanfu Road in Yanshui Town is set as Gupao Street, and merchants in Lianhuan Street use ancient methods to make firecrackers, such as bamboo rolling cannons and single-tube retro fireworks. In 2007

In 2000, it was said that the fire dragon rapid-fire gun 13 kilometers long, hoping to challenge the new Guinness World Record, but because five routes were lit at the same time, the whip was on the way.

The gun was fired once, and it was difficult to determine the length, so it was impossible to set a record as expected.

The moment when the bee cannon explodes: the basic method of the salt water path is to nail a large bracket with wooden strips, which can be two to twenty feet high, and then fill the sky cannon with it.

On the wooden frame, there can be thousands to tens of thousands of guns, and then the gun cores are connected to form a fort (or gun city).

And then decorate the appearance and paste colored paper to form humans, animals and so on. Usually, families will mobilize their families to make bee cannons to participate in activities.

The route of the salt water bee cannon starts from the front of Wu Miao Temple in Salt Water Town and carries out activities around the whole salt water town. It turns out that activities all over the country started on the Lantern Festival.

After the one-day tour, the salt water town was divided into several areas because of the long surrounding time, and it was arranged as a two-day tour, so the current salt water bee

The time for setting off fireworks starts at 8: 00 am on the 14th day of the first lunar month and ends after midnight on the second Tianyuan Lantern Festival. In activities all over the country, sedan chairs

Eight Commanders in Taiwan Province refer to Ba Shen, who is responsible for catching ghosts and exorcising evil spirits, and is also the name of the leader of the array.

brief introduction

There are different opinions about the origin of the Eight Generals, but it is more credible that the Eight Generals deified its ancient system of patrolling the courtyard in the yamen, including the supervision department, the dragon sushi department, the appreciation department, the yin and yang department, the Ford department, the punishment department, the staff increase department and the quick report department, and two of them would be duplicated by two officials.

source

Generally, scholars believe that the eight families will be the subordinates of Five Blessingg the Great. In fact, the emperor who said this was Zhang in spring, Liu Yuanda in summer, the clock in autumn and winter and the five stone disasters in the middle. Some people say that Five Blessingg the Great is the five lords.

In fact, the common ceremonies of gods in Taiwan Province Province, such as Huang Cheng, Mazu and Guan Dijun, often appear.

General's name and instruments of torture

The number of eight generals varies from two officers to more than a dozen officers. Eight General's eight punishment divisions are:

General Liu Gan: Gan Pengfei and Liu Yu.

General Fan Xie: Xie Bi 'an, Wu Fan is hopeless.

Four Seasons Gods: Four Gods of Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter. Their surnames are Zhang, Xu and Cao respectively. Responsible for torture.

Of the eight generals, four will be the leading role, and the Four Seasons God will be the supporting role.

affect

The key plays of the eight great masters in Taiwan Province Province were captured by General Fan and General Xie (that is, the seven great masters and the eight great masters), executed by General Gan and General Liu, and then tortured by the Four Seasons Great God.

In the sense of faith, the Eight Generals have the authority to punish evil and promote good, and are brave and mighty. However, in recent years, quite a few eight commanders have been controlled by bad organizations, horns and gangsters, and they often attract inexperienced teenagers to join them. Apart from temple fairs, there are also crimes such as fighting and drug abuse. The Eighth National Congress will gradually change from traditional art and culture to criminal groups, and some Taiwan Province underworld organizations and temples will also take this opportunity to expand their organizations.

Song Jiang array is a folk performance combining martial arts and art, which first appeared in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties.

On Dragon Boat Festival in Taiwan Province Province

Like the mainland, the Dragon Boat Festival in Taiwan Province Province is the most lively and lively. The major rivers in all parts of Taiwan Province Province hold grand dragon boat races on the Dragon Boat Festival. Dragon boat rowing was originally a ritual to worship the water god, with the purpose of eliminating disasters and praying for blessings. Later, it was attached to the story of Qu Yuan, saying that people rowed boats for Qu Yuan. The dragon boat can only be launched after a "opening ceremony". "Opening the light" means that on the first day of May, the local governor is invited to worship the water god and raise a pen to light the longan of the dragon boat. On the fifth day, before the dragon boat was launched, people beat gongs and drums, carried it to the river, and burned incense and set off firecrackers along the way. After a cruise, the dragon boat will be launched to participate in the competition. At the beginning of the race, I saw the players on the dragon boat struggling to paddle with uniform movements in the drums. At the end of the river, there is a champion in the middle. Which team wins the championship first is the winner, and the outcome is often only in an instant. The exciting game attracted many people to enjoy on the shore and cheer for the players. After many traditional activities in ancient times gradually declined, dragon boat race became the most mass and representative festival activity of Dragon Boat Festival.

Gaoshan people's embrace dance

Every Mid-Autumn Festival night, Gaoshan compatriots in Taiwan Province Province will wear beautiful national costumes and gather at the edge of Sun Moon Lake. In the moonlight in Yin Hui, men and women are playing the game of "holding the ball".

According to legend, in ancient times, there was a young couple by the Daqingxi River. The man named Dajian Ge and the woman named Huashui Jie made a living by fishing. One day, the sun and the moon suddenly disappeared, the sky was dark, the seedlings withered, the flowers and fruits were not long, and insects and birds cried. Big tip and splash decided to get the sun and moon back. Under the guidance of the white-haired old woman, they killed the male dragon that devoured the sun in the deep pool with a golden axe; Killed the mother dragon that ate the moon with golden scissors. They also hold palm branches and hold the sun and the moon up to the sky. In order to conquer the dragon, they stayed by the pool forever and became two mountains: the big tip and the splash. This big pool is called "Sun Moon Lake".

Therefore, every Mid-Autumn Festival, Gaoshan compatriots miss the dedication of Dajian and Huashui, and all go to Sun Moon Lake to imitate the couple holding colored balls of the sun and the moon, so as not to let the colored balls fall to the ground, in order to make the sun and the moon bright, the weather good and the crops abundant.

Taiwan Province province civil wedding

China's ancient weddings were "Six Rites" and Taiwan Province Province was merged into "Four Rites", both of which were handed down from southern Fujian. Today, people in Taiwan Province Province still keep this custom and have unique customs.

On the wedding day, the bride should wear a white coat and skirt to show her chastity. The abdominal bag is hung on the abdomen, and the bag contains items such as lead money ("lead" is the same as "fate" in Minnan dialect, meaning marriage), sugar (sweet meaning), five grains, pig heart (meaning husband and wife are concentric). In addition, you should wear a leather skirt with a pan head sent by the man's family, and insert iron colored gold arrows on your head to ward off evil spirits. Wedding methods, complicated customs and habits. There are two kinds of new sedan chairs. One is that the groom does not have to go to the woman's house to meet him personally, and the matchmaker leads the bride's sedan chair to the woman's house to get married, which is called "single-top marriage"; The other is that the man's house has a son-in-law sedan chair and a bride's sedan chair, and the groom personally greets the woman's house, which is called "double-top marriage".

There are rules for the wedding procession. A person in front drags a bamboo pole (a green bamboo with a bud), commonly known as "green feet", which means that the bride will be healthy when she marries her husband's family. Followed by the matchmaker's sedan chair, uncle's sedan chair (the bride's younger brother) (a red cloth palace lantern is tied outside the sedan chair, called uncle's lantern), uncle's sedan chair (the groom's younger brother), dowry (depending on the rich and the poor), followed by the bride's sedan chair (also called son's sedan chair), followed by tong and advocacy. The bride's sedan chair stops at the man's door, and the groom will go out to meet him at the right time. A boy and a child stuck two oranges together to show the couple's good luck. At this time, the groom hit the bride's roof three times with a fan and hit the "door" three times with his foot. The bride just entrusted the key to the matchmaker and gave it to the groom as a sign of seeing the light of day. The groom took the red silk cloth in the bride's hand to her room. At the wedding, many people read four auspicious words. Like a porter carrying a bucket of children and grandchildren, carrying a bucket of children and grandchildren into the bride's room, carrying a bucket of children and grandchildren, crossing the threshold, the husband and wife reconciled, and everything was settled. ""children and grandchildren fight, sweep eight rooms, grow old together for a hundred years, and have the same heart. The picker will get a small red envelope. When opening the bride's sedan chair, the sedan chair bearer read four sentences: "Today, we will open the doors on both sides of the sedan chair and make a pile of gold and silver treasures. The bride's new husband will enter the room, have children and give birth to Sun Jinshi. He will also get a small red envelope.

When guests have a wedding banquet, parents will be very satisfied. Friends with many sons will use chopsticks first and say, "Eat chicken and get married." If you eat fish, you will be born in a good upbringing. Eating deer makes the whole family live longer. Eat pork belly, and your offspring will be great (excellent). The meat is round, and everything is round. Eat fish and eat gills. Be a master. Eat the fishfork. Come on. Eat Fuyuan, and your children and grandchildren will be full. Eating red dates is good every year. "So, be a bride. Many of the above "four sentences", in addition to expressing congratulations, have a conventional color of looking forward to the auspicious wedding home.
