Dragon dance is a folk activity with a long history and profound cultural heritage in China,and it is also an important part of excellent traditional culture.It is also a way for people to express their awe and respect for dragons through entertainment.This paper takes the dragon dance culture of Longli Ancient City,Jinping County,Guizhou Province as the research object,explains the cultural connotation of dragon dance,and explores the role mechanism of dragon dance in local society.Longli is one of the many guard stations set up by the Ming Dynasty in the southwest region,playing an important role in managing and guarding the territory.The guards are recruited from different regions,and the dragon dance that follows has become an important way for Longli people to adhere to the culture of Han ethnic group,adapting to the local natural and cultural environment.The theme of the dragon dance ranges from obeying and identifying with the Central Dynasty to adapting to the local society for survival,to the exchanges and interactions between different ethnic groups,and developing friendly ethnic relations with mutual exchanges and references.In the process of dragon dance,people reminisce about the past,miss their hometown,look forward to the prosperity of family members and the beautiful yearning for future life,etc.At the same time,it can be seen from the dragon dance that Longli people have different mentalities towards the dragon dance after the changes of the times,the initial identification with the Central Dynasty,the frustration,resentment and dissatisfaction after being forgotten by the dynasty,and finally wake up with the authority of "blasphemy" the dragon.As a product of Han culture,Longli Dragon Dance and ethnic minorities are exchanges and communication between two different cultural groups,resulting in different cultural experiences.From the aspects of the interaction between people as individuals,ethnic groups in the social system,and village groups,this paper elaborates on the mechanism of dragon dance in local society,that is,its impact on the Longli people and surrounding people,and clarifies the adjustment and adaptation of Longli people in local social survival through dragon dance.Interaction,Communication and integration are conducive to uniting people of all ethnic groups and forging a strong sense of Chinese national community.The Longli people use dragon dance as an important medium of connection,deepening the friendship between various ethnic groups,establishing harmonious neighborhood relationship with surrounding villagers.In the new era,Longli has extended the dragon dance arena to accommodate more ethnic groups,promoting multicultural exchange and mutual learning,strengthening communication and integration among ethnic groups,and forging a strong sense of Chinese national community while inheriting excellent traditional culture.
