It symbolizes bravery and strength, as well as exorcism, avoiding evil, keeping people safe, and bringing good luck to people. It is a folk entertainment activity.

When did the frog and lion dance begin? The Daquan Deng Family Genealogy of Sanxi Town in the 40th year of Qianlong's reign in the Qing Dynasty (1775) records: "My ancestor left Jiaozhe in Guiyang in the early Ming Dynasty, traveled to Dongxi as an artist, turned into a disciple to block the military cave, and settled in Daquan again, where he started his business. Yan". According to Deng Hexiang, the 88-year-old third-generation inheritor of the frog and lion dance, the dance recorded in the family tree is the "frog lion". The ancestors of the Deng family made a living by dancing frogs and lions. They came from Guiyang, now Chenzhou, and settled in Daquan Village. It can be seen that the frog and lion dance has been popular in the local area for at least 200 years.

The Frog Lion was performed by 6 folk artists. One person danced the lion, the "Smiling Buddha" and the "Spirit Monkey" danced with the lion, and the remaining three people played gongs, drums and cymbals to accompany the performance. During the performance, the "Smiling Buddha" and the "Spirit Monkey" each wore masks and came on stage one after another, holding sunflower fans, colorful scarves or grass, surrounding the lion's front, back, left, and right, using humorous and interesting forms to make various amusing, surprising, and amusing gestures. The fearful dance movements are combined with the frog lion's itching, licking, hair shaking, rolling, jumping, tumbling, flipping, upright and other action routines, which usually lasts about 20 minutes. In rural areas, folk artists will dance several times on festive occasions such as festivals and festivals, and the villagers never tire of it.

In the 1990s, the Lechang frog and lion dance participated in cultural parades. In the mid-to-late 1990s, the frog and lion dance gradually faded out of people's sight due to the impact of the market. Fortunately, the inheritors of Sanxi Frog Lion have passed down this folk art.

At present, the Sanxi Frog Lion has been recommended by Shaoguan City to apply for the third batch of intangible cultural heritage protection projects in Guangdong Province. The local party committee and government attach great importance to supporting the development of this folk art, and they expressed their intention to carry forward the frog and lion dance.
