Let's talk about his life experience first.
Dou Erdun's ancestral home is in xian county, Hebei Province, but Dou Erdun is not the core monument of his life. His real name is Dou Kaishan, and because he is the second in the family and strong, he has? Doulton Nickname. Dou Erdun studied martial arts with a soldier when he was young. He is strong-willed and hates evil. Later, he directly killed a local evil magistrate, and Dou Erdun's wandering life began.
During his wandering days, Dou Erdun did not give up studying martial arts, and met a monk on the way. He learned a lot of martial arts from monks, and after hard training, he became a master of martial arts. He also invented and improved a magic weapon-hand guard double hook. It is said that his hook is both offensive and defensive, and it is even more powerful to use, so someone later called it? Tiger head double hook? .
Let's talk about Dou Erdun's more important life experience.
After learning martial arts, Dou Erdun no longer fled, but returned to his hometown and began to resist the rule of the Qing Dynasty, and recruited soldiers. The first great thing he did was to rob the imperial court of 100,000 taels of silver. After robbing the silver, the people sent by the imperial court first asked for a competition with Dou Erdun. After Dou Erdun agreed to participate in the competition, he went back on his word during the competition, hurting Dou Erdun by losing money, while Dou Erdun escaped injured. After that, the imperial court sent people to encircle Dou Erdun many times, but all failed.
The second great thing that Dou Erdun did, which was also his famous event, was stealing imperial horses. Coincidentally, Dou Erdun heard that the imperial court official Liang Jiugong was riding a royal horse to hunt in the paddock, so he sneaked into Liang Jiugong's camp alone and stole the royal horse. Since then, Dou Erdun has become a thorn in the side of the imperial court, but Dou Erdun's force value is extremely high, and he can fight quite well. The imperial court besieged him many times and failed.
His last experience was unfortunately captured by the court.
Until Dou Erdun became a dutiful son and had a mother at home, the court seized Dou Erdun's mother and threatened Dou Erdun to surrender. Dou Erdun heard that his mother was arrested, and he really gave in easily, but his mother committed suicide on the spot when she learned that she had dragged Dou Erdun into the water. Dou Erdun was heartbroken after his mother's death and fought hard, but he was outnumbered in the end. After being injured, he was captured by the court. Finally, at the age of 35, he was sentenced to death by the emperor, ending his legendary life.
After Dou Erdun's death, his story was incorporated into Peking Opera. Because of his courage and strength, he was given a blue face and drew a double hook on his forehead for his weapon: the double hook on the tiger's head, and rewrote a story for him with his famous story "Stealing the Imperial Horse". From then on, there was something written in "Talking about Singing Face"? Blue-faced Dalton stole the royal horse? .
China's Peking Opera culture is extensive and profound. Besides Dou Erdun, there are many representative figures. Everyone has his own style and story, as well as his own face and representative color. If you are interested in China's traditional opera culture, then Peking Opera must be a representative opera that can't be missed.
