Like dancing figurines, the westward journey figurines are all for the appreciation of the dead. The so-called "Nuo reward" is a kind of rap performance that is good at joking outside of singing and dancing, also known as an actor or Nuo friend. As early as the Qin and Han dynasties, there was a so-called hundred plays to show off the best. In the Tang Dynasty, it was even more popular to join the army. The two characters, Joining the Army and Canggu, performed all kinds of funny dialogues, which made people laugh, just like today's cross talk. This kind of burial figurine appeared as early as the Han Dynasty, and the "storytelling" figurine unearthed in Tianjiong Town, Chengdu is an outstanding production. Among the tomb figures in the Tang Dynasty, there are also many such dancing figures, and most of them are men, which is different from the figures who are mostly women in music and dance.

There are four dancers who belong to dance music, three of whom were unearthed in Luoyang, and the other one has been lost abroad. They are all masterpieces of Tang Dynasty dancing figurines, and they may all be relics of the prosperous Tang Dynasty.

From these female dancers with different costumes, we can see that their costumes are colorful and their expressions are beautiful, which shows that sculptors have excellent talent in obtaining artistic images from real life. Judging from the dynamic expressions of these dancing figures who indulge in singing and dancing, it seems that even if they are enslaved for pleasure, their youthful and innocent hearts still seem to show their yearning for a better life. It is worth mentioning that three outstanding dance figures unearthed in Luoyang were destroyed during the Japanese militarists' invasion of China in the late 1930s, and only this original photo exists, because few people have seen these three figures since they were unearthed. 1937 On the eve of the July 7th Incident, the author had the opportunity to visit ancient Luoyang. At that time, he saw these three newly unearthed painted pottery figurines in the Education Department, which were simply rare treasures. He immediately took photos for future reference. Unexpectedly, these painted pottery figurines were destroyed in order to avoid Japanese bombing during the relocation of Henan cultural relics. Among the music and dance figurines unearthed from the Tang tomb near Chang 'an, Shaanxi Province, a group of music and dance figurines and a group of musicians and Confucian scholars are more representative. Dance figurines unearthed from Zheng Rentai's tomb (see front). It should be from the early Tang Dynasty, but two of the four sitting figures should be dancers or singers, not musicians. Because judging from their gestures, they don't look like instrument players, but probably sit and rest during the intermission of singing and dancing. What stands out are two dancing figurines, which show the beautiful image described in Tang poetry, that is, "dancing beautifully with long sleeves and waving lightly, singing loudly and singing loudly, and doing business clearly."
