1, Mr. Zhang Jun Gong from the backstage out, wearing a picture of red tea mirror, looking at the road, left leg tied to the dumping board, the right hand holding the three strings, slowly walked up to the stage, early someone set up a table and a stool. He calmly swept the audience crowded in front of and behind the stage, satisfied with a smile, ran a handful of silk strings, scratching a sparse white hair. At this time the stage rang a round of applause, when the applause is about to fall, the three strings in his hands with the rhythm of his legs to throw the board, the unique eyebrow tune to attract all the audience on the stage. Once the three-stringed tone fell, the open-mouthed steel tone sang!

2, Shaanbei storytelling is generally divided into the main book and a small section. The main book and the small paragraph can be either related or completely unrelated. Small paragraph is mainly in the main book before the start, in order to stabilize the audience has entered and wait for the latecomers and the first said the opening speech. This way, even if you are a little late, you can still listen to the whole book. The main melody of the storyteller's instrument mainly relies on the three strings, and the tempo is mastered by the fluttering board on the leg. In the past, the old storyteller was basically a blind or partially blind entertainer holding a sanxian or a lute. Because there was no need for power equipment, they could improvise a few short passages in the field or in the courtyard of a kiln or a kiln, and could speak a book of several hours' duration at any time. Usually, they play the three-stringed instrument with their legs tied to a board, holding the three-stringed instrument in their left hand and playing the three-stringed instrument with their right hand. Clanking rough sound of three strings after the door, the bookmaker will face a courtyard audience a voice shouted out, sad pale thick aftermath of the rhyme far away. Behind the kiln like a speaker, across the mountain echo like singing. Along with the storyline, high when the group feelings excited, sad when the ghosts and gods choked!

3, in the past to know other stories, we mainly through listening to books, when books are less, listening to books is the choice of many people, in today's books a lot, but how many people buy books to see it?

In the past, the old society is actually playing the three strings of the blind artists who traveled from village to village to sell their skills, that is, today's society to catch the Shaanbei storytellers. Shaanbei storytelling this ancient and traditional art in 2006 included in the national intangible cultural heritage!

4. In the past, the vast and heavy Shaanxi plateau was barren and suffering. People's material and spiritual pursuits are very limited, in the struggle for survival with the simple people of northern Shaanxi, feelings moved in the shape of words. Thus gave birth to the unique local art culture of northern Shaanxi, resulting in native folk art. This simple form of local dialect rap not only enriches the poor people's agricultural leisure time, but also through the storyline to educate people, good people, walk the right way. The storytellers have integrated this art into the lives of the people of northern Shaanxi, and it has become a masterpiece of the northern Shaanxi people's lives. As a landmark figure in Shaanbei storytelling, Mr. Zhang is an innovator and reformer, he changed the sitting field to walking field, and added erhu, banhu, flute, electronic piano, yangqin and other musical instruments, forming his own school, referred to as the Zhang School. The current Shaanbei storytelling tunes and forms are basically the form of the Zhang School. Mr. Zhang Jungong reform and innovation of the Shaanbei storytelling, so that this folk art has not only been passed down, but also included in the national intangible cultural heritage.

5, in the late 80's, due to transportation, communication and entertainment conditions are backward, rural people's consumption and after the busy pastime is basically rely on the temple fair and rally. I remember one spring when I was a child, the village held a temple fair, the willow spit green stamens, the sky floating white clouds. There were head shavers, goat sellers, fortune tellers, and those who asked the gods to sell incense. Three groups, two groups, there are surrounded by the old people watching the opera kowtowing melon seeds, there are boxing and drinking young people, as well as looking over the bed sheets and covers of the young mothers-in-law and aunts. At noon, the Qin opera just finished, the announcer said the following Shaanbei storyteller Mr. Zhang Jungong on stage. At one time, everyone flocked to the front of the stage to see the famous Shaanbei storyteller, Mr. Zhang Jungong!

6, the old man is listening to forget to smoke and drink. At this time, the clouds scattered rain stopped, the rainbow rose in the sky, the ground accumulated a lot of bright crystal water nest. Mr. Zhang Jungong is going to start talking again, "The sun rises in the east and turns to the east, advising people to do good and not to do evil. Doing good has its own heavenly protection, and doing evil will certainly not be tolerated by heaven". Mr. Zhang said along with the south mountain range in the distance, as if to see the Ganquan old home on the banks of the Luochuan River on the skinny wife is working in the corn field figure. The crowd after a heavy rain, listening to the mood of the book and a variety of small business business slowly began to recover again!

7. "There are many clouds in the sky and the moon is not clear; there are many mountains on the ground and the roads are not level. The river fish more water is not clear, the world people more heart different. Four verses of the poem, the brittle wood a beat, the original noisy meeting place all of a sudden became silent. Only a few cloak some long hair, wearing a duckbill hat, oddly dressed young students in the crowd to wear around, said that the province on the wind of the reporter, end of the long lens camera click, click, click of the photo!

8, I was born in the remote mountainous areas of rural northern Shaanxi, from memory, rural people's entertainment and pastime is basically on the tape to listen to the northern Shaanxi storytelling and local folk songs. I remember when I was six or seven years old, there was no electricity in the house, and at night with a kerosene lamp, the family gathered around a battery-operated cassette recorder, basically listening to the contents of the old Mr. Zhang Junkong's Shaanbei storytelling. At that time, the melodious accompaniment and powerful lyrics left me with deep memories, which are still fresh in my mind. Later met Mr. Zhang's son, Mr. Zhang Heping, I learned that Mr. Zhang has passed away, and when he was dying, he still remembered to pass on this ancient and traditional art, from which we can feel that Mr. Zhang has a deep attachment to Shaan Bei Shuo Shuo and the pursuit of perseverance, and always hope to pass down this folk art and carry forward the vast majority of the hope that the future generations will be left with a valuable artistic wealth!

9, the crowd is listening to the energy, the sky suddenly started to rain, a moment of chaos into a nest of bees, all scrambling to the stage. Zhang Jungong old man is still immersed in the book of the two fell sick and asked for a cure in the realm of fortune-telling, until the stage was crowded with people, he only stopped guys. Someone handed him a jar of old brick strong tea, he sucked sucked a few mouthfuls, with a few old men to talk about their own experience. Four months to learn two and a half books, two books are "Wu Barbarian Peddler", "Shoes", and half of the book is "Split the mountain to save the mother". In the old society, book-telling was a way for the disabled to make a living, and people with good arms and legs and eyesight were able to participate in the line of the blind. Nowadays, healthy people can also learn the art of storytelling. I brought out of the apprentices currently have dozens of people, there are several female apprentices, say are now compiled new books. These decades, I often in Shaanxi, Gansu, Ningxia, Jin, Mongolia and other places to tell the book, as soon as I arrived at the place, idle to learn the local dialect, Taoism, chicken barking and dog biting, male and female voices, you love to listen to me tell the book, that is my own hard work hard to figure out". For example, "the poor dog saw the stranger came to bite, but because the dog is not enough to eat, and do not dare to bite on people, so the hooves straight back, the mouth is not strong, barking on the weak - wahoo - wahoo! The rich man's dog ate well, but also eat full, strong, bold, see the living a pounce on, barking also wind, wow - wow wow"!
