Every Spring Festival, people in various towns and villages spontaneously organize themselves, carrying their cores, running on bamboo horses, standing on stilts, playing with lions, and going from village to village, which is very lively. This festive activity is called "social fire" in Guanzhong, "yangko" and "prosperous time" in northern Shaanxi, and "juggling" and "playing stories" in southern Shaanxi. Social fire is divided into drama and drama. A small fight means only wicker legs and a platform. The essence of social fire is the core of difficult art, that is, a steel bar with different shapes and the thickness of thumb is fixed on a special table, about two meters high, and the roots are made of colored paper into various shapes, such as cotton, fruit trees, spinning wheels, looms, dragons, tigers and other things in the world, and then boys and girls (usually 4-5 years old) are dressed up as drama characters and stand on the top according to the content. Or stand side by side, or overlap, or lie down, or stand upside down. Some arms swing, like walking, and some arms swing in autumn, hanging high in the void of 3 feet. The scene is surprised, dangerous, clever and strange.

Stilts in social fires often walk in groups. They are high-spirited, audacious, walk with deliberate twists and turns, and look wobbly, making people sweat; Some people suddenly split their forks when they walk and sit on the ground and act coquettish.

There are a certain number of sets of gongs and drums, which are divided into old songs, new songs and tight three fires The old songs are magnificent, the new songs are long and clear, and the three fires are tense and warm. The male flag hunts, and the cannon blasts the dragon. If you meet the fire brigade of other villages on the street, pay attention to courtesy. Get out of the way first The latecomers go first, which is obviously comity, while Ming is a challenge and contest. The drums are blaring, and everyone wants to overwhelm each other with momentum. The social fire actors of various schools also try their best to attract the audience with actions, language and tricks. Although it has the nature of competition, it never evaluates the ranking, and the standard of good or bad is in the hearts of the masses.
