What pingju are adapted from fairy tales or legends?

A large number of folk stories and myths and legends provide rich materials for the birth of Pingju. There are many outstanding heroes in eastern Hebei. Our hot land has not only produced sages like Boyi, Shu Qi and Tian Chou who can leave great spiritual wealth to future generations, but also produced a large number of heroes with achievements in literary and martial arts like Xianbei Zhongji, Duan Yong, Wang xin and Li Yuanzhang, which made them shine in history. The deeds of these sages and heroes have been handed down from generation to generation, and gradually evolved into touching stories and legends, forming the oldest and richest cultural accumulation in eastern Hebei. All kinds of wars and battles have made the war culture here increasingly colorful, such as the war between war and punishment, plotting and plotting, uniting with Lian Heng, advancing and retreating, etc. , and gradually evolved into war stories and legends, handed down in the form of folk oral literature, and became the creative theme of Pingju. For example, fighting Dengzhou, Jizhou, Tiepai Mountain and Wancheng. They are all martial arts dramas with the theme of ancient wars. In addition, there are gladiators in Shanrong, riding and shooting in Xianbei, fishing songs in Qidan, wrestling in Yuan Dynasty, etc. And the entertainment activities held during the war have also spread in eastern Hebei. The so-called "the battle between Liao and northern Shanxi shook the earth, and the song of the warrior immediately flowed into the Central Plains and became the daily use of the people." (According to "Narrative of Nanci")

The rapid development of street culture is also an important reason for the birth of Pingju. Due to several large-scale immigration activities and the more enlightened immigration policy of the rulers, Luanzhou area has prospered rapidly, and there has been a scene in history of "ten thousand scenes are connected with clouds, and fat meets Rao" (according to old books). These long-term and relatively prosperous market cultures provide fertile soil for the birth of Pingju. Later, many pingju dramas were based on these common cultures, such as double marriage, Chinese New Year, beating dogs to persuade husbands, blind people divining, Tiantai Mountain, bridal chamber recognizing fathers, dogs taking the lead, Ermei and so on. These plays reflect the feelings of parents.

The accumulation of folk culture is an important foundation for the birth of Pingju. There have been more than 20 nationalities living together in eastern Hebei for a long time, and different cultural backgrounds are constantly infiltrating and merging here, which makes the folk customs here complex and changeable, thus becoming increasingly rich and colorful, forming a unique folk culture, such as weddings, funerals, eating, drinking and having fun, human exchanges, going to the temple to go to the fair and so on. The procedures are complex, demanding, rigorous and well-established, and the people enjoy it. Among them, only marriage customs have to go through more than a dozen procedures before they can settle down. Just before you get married, you have to go through several rules, such as asking questions, making small decisions, letting go, asking questions and giving gifts. On the wedding day, there will be "opening the face", "reaching the top", "carrying the bride" and "carrying the bag". However, these rich folk cultures provide inexhaustible treasures for the creation of Pingju, and a large number of Pingju originated from these rich and colorful folk cultures, such as sawing crocks, mending undershirts, waving incense, disturbing the bridal chamber, ghosts and so on.
