The local people commemorated Huo Tong by holding a "February 2nd" lantern festival, and the Lion Line Performance was one of the most distinctive programs in the "February 2nd" lantern festival. Since the middle and late Ming Dynasty, Huo Tong Lion has become an important part of the local festival culture.

In the event, Huang Jia and Chen Jia Line Lion each bring forth new ideas and push the lamp meeting to a climax. Huang Jia has the theory of lion game, Chen Jia has the theory of puppet lion, the two origins have their own merits .
Line lion art of Chen surname originated from string puppets in Quanzhou and Nan'an in the flourishing Tang Dynasty. In Kangxi period of Qing Dynasty, the ancestors of Chen surname moved from Nan'an to Huo Tong Town, and brought this art to Huo Tong . In the 1940s, the structure of Chen's Lion Line was relatively simple, without lighting background, such as metal steel sheet and stainless steel sheet. When there was no electricity, the eyes would not blink or shine. And there are bamboo strips inside, which are easy to break. Later, they are easily rubbed and replaced by other materials where they are easy to break. Lion's feet also developed from bamboo strips to wood carvings and joints.

Projects Making
Before the performance, the production of the stage, the lighting effect and the rope layout were all manually operated. The knotting of rope is a key link in the performance of Lion Thread. Every perforation must be meticulous and conscientious. The ball held by the line lion is delicate and dexterous. The big net basket is covered with small balls which rotate freely. The balls are equipped with lights and shine at night, symbolizing the stars. The lion's body is made of various materials, with bamboo strips as the framework, filled with cotton, cloth, rubber, etc., while the lion's hair is made of special colored plastic silk. After the reform of Chinese folk artists in past dynasties, the size of the line lion has developed from small puppet to huge and heavy, the structure has changed from simple to complex, and the production technology has also been greatly developed and improved .
Performing Form
Performers stand behind the stage to lift ropes, people are less than 5 meters away from lions, more than 10 meters; more than a dozen line lion artists score into arrays, with one person in each group as the main supplement, with no room for cooperation; lion dancers pull ropes at different rhythms or frequencies, performing various movements and manners of lions; lion dancers not only need skilled skills, but also need plenty of physical strength.
Huo Tong Lion uses ropes to manipulate lions to perform various actions, including literary and martial arts. Its performances include four forms: single lion (male), double lion (male and female), three lions (one mother and two sons), and five lions (one mother and four sons). Line lion performances were first performed along the way, dancing while walking, and then turning to fixed stage performances . Through the practical creation of the folk artists of past dynasties, they can perform sitting, squatting, awakening, stretching, yawning, scratching, scratching, licking, hibernating, snuggling, jumping, running, upperpillar, descending, drilling caves, etc.
Out of holes, climbing mountains, jumping streams, crossing ridges, soaring, whirling, rolling, gasping, trembling, roaring, roaring and other dynamics, just to show the lion play ball, there are such actions as seeking, chasing, catching, stepping on, biting, scrambling, holding, throwing and so on. All these dynamic performances of lions are realized by the collective manipulation and close cooperation of artists.
Chen's performance depends on music. Music uses drums, gongs and cha-cha. When male lions are brave, gongs and drums will play fiercely when they jump up. When female lions perform licking, the gongs and drums will slow down a little. The tune is usually clang. For performers to coordinate their movements, they need to rely on gongs and drums to direct .
Stories and legends
There are two legends about the history of the linear lion: one is that there are children crying, adults playing with children, and there are carved human animals on the windows of the houses built by Huo Tong's rich people. One of them is a lion carved over there. If the children want the lion, adults will find a way to make the carved lion with simple things, tie it up with cloth and bamboo baskets, and turn over the Taishi chair. For the shelf, pull with the thread, tease children with this music, from this basis to the present; one kind of legend is that the puppet of Quanzhou evolved, the puppet of string is people standing on the top, the lion of string is behind the frame, people pull outside, performers are more than five meters from the lion of line, more than ten meters from the lion of line, the action is based on it evolved .
In addition, according to historical legend, Huang Jugong, a disciplinarian doctor and founder of the Sui Dynasty, once irrigated Huo Tong's villages and fields for the benefit of his people.

Inheritance
In 1987, the Huang family raised more than 80,000 yuan to build Huo Tong traditional Lion Club, and raised funds to build Huang Jiaping into a family training Lion tradition place . Chen's surname was unwilling to show weakness. In 1988, Chen Jia Line Lion House was built. Since then, not only the production of Line Lion has a special Line Lion House, but also the training has a fixed place .
Huo Tong Line Lion has a family inheritance rule that male does not inherit female, which leads to the lack of successors . Line lion performances are usually just traditional festival entertainment programs, even if invited to perform in other places, the income is often insufficient. Therefore, the performers of the line lion have to work to support their families on weekdays, gathering and rehearsing before the performance, which inevitably affects the study and development of the line lion performing art. After the 21st century, most of the performances of Lions are middle-aged and elders. Although young people also love this ancestral stunt, many young men learn it every year. However, most of them have to go out to make a living after they have completed their studies. They are too old to further improve their skills.
Up to 2008, Huo Tong Line Lion still has other problems, such as insufficient funds for development, changes in performance venues, fixed lines for the annual lamp walk, but on the fixed lines, wooden houses at the end of Huo Tong Street have appeared hidden dangers, with narrow crowds. Especially the application of lighting effect makes the fire safety equipment and management of the scene lag behind the pace of the annual lighting meeting. In addition to the 2000 yuan subsidy for the town, the investment of production funds basically depends on the family. With the increasing rhythm of market economy, people's interest in folk festivals has become increasingly indifferent .

Museum, including the Huang Lion Line Team and Chen Lion Line Team each 40 minutes. The development of Huo Tong Lion has entered a stable stage of commercialization. Chen Xin, the captain of the Line Lion Team surnamed Chen, said, "In the past, the performance of the Line Lion was for the sake of face, but now the performance of the Line Lion is for the sake of rice bowl. It used to lose face if you didn't perform well, but now you're going to lose your job if you don't perform well.
