That year I lost the whole village to find out what it was.

That year, I lost everyone in the village to look for it. It is said that a goat was lost in the village in the first year of cross talk. The whole village went out for days and nights. The old man thought that the whole village had no stalks. Crosstalk (Zhangpai Art) is the fourth batch of municipal intangible cultural heritage representative projects. There are three cradles of crosstalk: Beijing Tianqiao, Tianjin Quanyechang and Nanjing Confucius Temple. It is generally believed that it was formed during the reign of Xianfeng and Tongzhi in Qing Dynasty. It is a folk art form that makes the audience laugh by telling jokes or interesting questions and answers. It evolved from "Xiang Sheng" in the Song Dynasty. By the end of Qing Dynasty, crosstalk had formed modern characteristics and styles. Mainly in Beijing dialect, there are also "dialect crosstalk" in local dialects. In the process of cross talk, we have absorbed the artistic advantages of ventriloquism and storytelling, combined Zhuang with harmony, expressed truth, goodness and beauty with satirical jokes, made people laugh as artistic features, and took "speaking, learning, teasing and singing" as the main artistic means.
