The hall is divided into four or five drums like seven stone jars—the funeral of the British Jew Oss Ai Hartung (10)
The sacrificial hall is magnificent. Since the gate of Yanyu Hall, it is divided into four halls: the first hall is hung with door lamps and celebrity couplets. Two lamas and drummers stood in the corner of the hall and played drums to deliver the news to the guests. And there is a class of lamas, where he plays Western music. The second hall hangs the medal certificate that Hartung received during his lifetime and the elegy sent by all walks of life. And there is a marching band. Two lama drummers, standing on both sides, perform the job of drumming, and the drum is as big as a seven-stone jar. The four walls of the third hall are full of silk curtains, a table of sacrificial feasts is set up, and a military band is set up. The fourth hall is set up as a canteen, a place for guests to sit. The hall is surrounded by white balls. The fifth hall is the sacrificial hall at the beginning, and the male guest seat is on the left; On the right is the women's seat. There are four electric lights in the corner of the house, which were used by the Shanghai Star Film Company to shoot documentaries here.
When political dignitaries and celebrities (such as Di Ziping, Guan Jiongzhi, Yuan Ludeng, etc.) pay their respects, they will take pictures of the light. Walk out of the small door of the sacrificial hall, through a corner of the garden, to the stage of "Heavenly Performance", which is full of celebrity couplets, among them, Wu Peifu's representative Fan Deguang sent the couplet:
"It is the Buddha of the West, who is tied to the east and the earth, and comes and goes with causes and fruits; Pan-North Haicha, Nanyang Island, ladder navigation is well-known everywhere. ”
Zhang Antai Bangyun again:
"Received the precepts of heaven, proved that Bodhi Guo sheltered Du Lingxia, and was clothed in white."
Behind the Tianyan realm, there are two altars of Wenhai Pavilion and Jianshoutang. In the Wenhai Pavilion is a lama invited from Beijing, who recites sutras here with the light and heavy instruments of Mongolian and Tibetan instruments. A pair of trumpets are about six feet long, and the brass drums are as large as a round table, and when they are played, they shake the house. In Jianshoutang, the sixty-three generations of Han Heavenly Masters led the Taoist people to practice, all wearing yellow clothes. It is far away from Wenhai Pavilion.
The scene of hanging is huge, but it is not standardized, and the dojo is not all "like the law", which is very different from the traditional funeral. Cheng is bizarre and absurd.
