Place name legend

Jixian Village has a long history. It is said that it existed in the Han Dynasty. In the Southern and Northern Dynasties, there was a family surnamed Zhou in this village, and his wife was a beautiful lady named Tao. In the busy summer of a disaster year, when the husband was harvesting in the field, the wife went to the field to deliver food. On the way, she met eight starving men who were dying and begged for food. Dow distributed the food to the starving men, and then took an empty rice basket to her own field. When the husband, who was already very hungry, found out why, he did not complain, but also suspected that his wife had not brought the hungry man back to the village to help him. These eight starving men were originally Dongtu Taoists. After the disaster year, they came to this village to express their thanks, praise the Zhou family's men and women, and named the village "Men and Wives". So he built bridges and roads in the village, dug wells and canals, and gave free clinics to the poor. The story of the Zhou couple and eight Taoists is said to be a story of ten sages. In the early years of Yuanfeng in the Northern Song Dynasty, Su Dongpo learned about this when he visited Louguantai, and also called the village of "virtuous men and wives" the hometown of ten sages. In the late Qing Dynasty, the "virtuous man and wife" village was also called Jixian Village.

Jixian Drum Music

Jixian Drum Music originated in the Sui and Tang Dynasties. In the Sui Dynasty, Yang Jian passed Jixian Village on his way from Chang'an to Xianyou Temple. During the An Shi Rebellion in the Tang Dynasty, Wang Leren, a family member in the palace, fled to Shengshou Temple and was introduced to Jixian Village. Today, Jixian Drum Music is divided into East and West clubs, with more than 80 musicians. In order to preserve this drum music, Shaanxi Provincial Department of Culture allocated special funds to purchase musical instruments and costumes, train young people, and organize performances in Xi'an, Beijing, Shenzhen and Germany. Jixian Drum Music consists of percussion and wind playing. Percussion instruments include drums, gongs, cymbals and bangs. There are zheng, ruan, sheng, pipe, flute, yu, qin, etc. Costumes include ancient costumes and Tang costumes. Music consists of music, sitting music and rhyme music. Xingle includes: Hongsha, Routing, Manyuanchun, etc; Sitting music includes: Tiaoban, Songzhang, Tianzao, Bawangbian, Four Seasons Peace, a flower in Nanlu, breaking the battle array, a feast of heroes, etc; Rhymes include: Liu Qingniang, Park Lantern Moth, Hulu Valley, Tea Words, Nine Dragons Praise, Four in Four, Diandian Small, Deep Ditch Carrying Water, Playing Social Tiger, Sannaye, Deshengling Order, Guanmenzi, the sunny day of September 9, Shibantou, Sitting in the tent, pomegranate flower, cutting fox, beating stick, willow sprouts, Shuiouyu, pink lotus, crossing Tongguan, etc.

Jixian Imperial Assembly

During the Jiaqing period of the Qing Dynasty (1796-1820), a sect of the White Lotus Cult entered Jixian Village from Chenggu County and Yangxian County to kill more than 7000 people, causing the river in the village to become a blood river, which was called the killing river (now the place of the north-south road in the village). During the reign of Daoguang (1812-1850), Emperor Daoguang's imperial edict was used to offer sacrifices, so an imperial assembly was formed. The imperial assembly was held from February 23 to 28 of the first lunar month every year, and the village head read the sacrifice, and performed Yangko, community fire performances, and drum music. A material exchange meeting has been formed.

Gather talents to fight social fires

There are many unique ceremonies in Jixian, among which "fighting Shehuo" and "playing Shehuo" are the most distinctive. Every year, from the second day of the first lunar month, the two historically fixed opposing clubs challenge each other, riding mules and horses to each other's streets in accordance with certain rules, and this kind of battle is even slightly "humiliating", so that the emotions of both sides continue to rise and the scene continues to "upgrade". After that, we will compare our wisdom with each other. In such an activity that breaks the usual rules, all the tiredness and pressure are removed, and the relationship between the opposing parties is closer. It was not until the 17th and 8th of the first month that the social activities ended. Another example is the Laba Festival. If there is any contradiction, dispute or unpleasant thing between neighbors in the past year, this festival can help resolve the past grievances by sending Laba porridge. This traditional festival reflects the important social integration function of villager autonomy in the agricultural society of China, and still has very important practical significance today. In addition, there are ancestor worship, New Year's greetings, relatives, lanterns, etc. The rituals of other festivals are also unique, reflecting the primitive nature of folk culture to a certain extent.
