Chapter 1400 Monkey Show
Monkey playing can be regarded as a folk art with a long history. In the era when cultural life was scarce in the past, hundreds of people could gather at the sound of gongs in the streets and alleys.
There are couples playing monkeys like this, and there are also monkeys playing in circuses, but the forms are similar.
The man beat the gong several times around the arena, yelling at the top of his voice, and at the same time observing the number of onlookers, hoping to wait for more people to come, and avoid delaying too long to wear out people's patience.
Seeing that the number of people was almost the same, he put down the gong, made a bow to the surroundings, and said: "Our husband and wife have just come to Guibao to perform a monkey show for our fathers and villagers. Let's not say anything else, please be rich Those who have no money will also support the personal game. You are very happy to see it. How much money will you give us and my husband to eat together? We are here as a husband and wife, thank you!"
"it is good!"
"it is good!"
"Let's get started! It's fun to watch, and your money is indispensable!"
People don't hesitate to give free applause, except for those who hold up their mobile phones to take pictures, others applaud and urge to start quickly.
"Okay! Let's start! Let the boss in the monkey play a song "The Moon Reflected in the Two Springs" for everyone!"
As he spoke, the man led a monkey to the center of the open space, stuffed a toy erhu and a piano bow into its hand, and then played "Er Quan Ying Yue" through a portable speaker, and the monkey also asked Reflexively holding the erhu and pulling the bow left and right, looking around from time to time, it looks like that.
When the song "Erquan Yingyue" was finished, people applauded as usual. After all, it was free, so you can't ask too much.
At this time, the man took out the second monkey and said: "The monkeys in my family are all versatile. The eldest is a musician, and the second can juggle. Now let the second do somersaults for everyone, which is better than that of the Monkey King on TV." Not bad by half!"
"Children, practice!"
As he said that, he began to shake the thin iron chain in his hand periodically, and the monkey did somersaults following his movements.
He doesn't stop, and neither does the monkey.
This difficulty is much higher than the first performance.
People watched attentively and spontaneously applauded.
However, the monkey's physical strength declined after more than a dozen somersaults, and one of the somersaults failed, and it fell on its back with a slap.
People laughed, and someone shouted: "Get up and turn over again! Just a few more turns! Is this a little skill? Turn over ten more, and I will reward you with a hundred yuan!"
The man's face turned dark, and he reached out to pick up a short whip from the side, and slammed it on the ground next to the monkey, forcing a white mark on the ground, as if a loud firecracker had been set off.
The monkey stood up tremblingly, its legs were trembling, and stared at its master in horror.
"Hey! Thank you, sir. It was a mistake just now, and the real performance is now!" The man apologized to the voice, "Come on, second child, show this master your skills!"
The monkey turned somersault again, and the difference from the last time was that every time it turned over, a whip would be whipped loudly on the ground, as if to warn it not to make mistakes, otherwise the whip would fall on it by "mistakes" .
"Wechat collection, one hundred yuan."
"Wechat collection, ten yuan."
"WeChat payment, five yuan."
...
The performance this time was flawless, ten somersaults were performed neatly, and the crowd applauded loudly, and the speaker generously paid a hundred yuan as promised, and there were other people who joined in the fun and asked you to give ten yuan and I'll give five yuan, after all These days, no one is short of five or ten yuan, and five yuan may not be able to buy a breakfast.
With a big smile on his face, the man tossed a few peanuts to the exhausted monkey as a reward.
Next, he took out the third monkey to perform monkey riding a dog.
The monkeys were obviously terrified of the two big dogs, but he had to force them to ride on the dogs, and then he led them around the field and played the classic song "Dare to Ask Where the Way Is" from the old version of "Journey to the West" , which caused everyone to laugh again.
"You carry the burden,
I lead the horse..."
Of course, the performance couldn’t be so simple. In the middle, he gave a signal to the dog, commanding the dog to jump up suddenly and throw the monkey on its back to the ground, and made a gesture of intimidation. The monkey was almost scared to death, but it still tried to crawl back to the dog back.
The fourth monkey performed monkey climbing for everyone-let the monkey perform juggling on the pole that was raised up.
Because of the iron chain tied around its neck, this monkey made a major mistake when juggling, accidentally letting the chain wrap around the pole, and almost strangled himself. Of course, the performance failed, but this is not the first time the man has experienced this. This kind of thing, immediately said that this is a performance of a monkey hanged - everyone is not a fool, this may only be believed by elementary school students, and anyone with a discerning eye can see that the monkey was strangled until it foamed at the mouth, this cannot be Acting, but what does that have to do with them? They are just spectators, and most of them are still prostitutes.
Although no one exposed the man's lies, few paid for it.
The man brought out the last monkey that hadn't appeared yet, which was the new monkey who was not safe and always wanted to escape. He wanted to use this monkey to reverse the situation in one fell swoop, earn more money, and then leave the place, surrounded by Make a circle around Binhai City, and then go to other cities.
This monkey was obtained by chance.
It's unbelievable to say that when the monkey was setting up a stall in the last place, this monkey that appeared out of nowhere saw its fellows, so it stupidly approached them, as if trying to untie the chains around their necks .
When he saw this scene, he was stunned for a moment, but he reacted very quickly, and immediately declared that this was part of the performance, and then signaled to the two dogs, ordering them to stop the monkey from escaping, and then catch it It, on a chain, locked it up with the other monkeys.
He suspected that this monkey had run away from other monkey trickers, because when it appeared, it was holding a toy keyboard in its hand... But after careful inspection, it didn't look like it, because there were no strangle marks on its neck—if Being tied around the neck with an iron chain for a long time will bald the hair on the neck and cause scars, which are obvious.
But all monkey jugglers will tie the monkey's neck with an iron chain, even the monkeys in the circus are no exception. The circus does not use chains to tie the monkeys during performances, but they still have to tie the chains during normal training, because the rabbits are anxious. The monkey will kick the eagle when it is anxious, and the monkey will bite when it is anxious.
He smiled and said to the onlookers: "Boys, this monkey is the youngest, and it is also the grand finale of our show. I can assure you that none of you have seen what it is performing. What do you think it is?"
As he spoke, he pointed to the toy keyboard it held in its hand, "It can type."
