However, there are other that are rare, for example, Ci Sai or Green Lion (\u9752\u72ee), which originated from the art of Lam Tai Zo Gun (\u5357\u592a\u7956\u62f3).<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Unlike all other lion dances, the Ci Sai is neither a dance nor a ceremonial lion. It is actually a symbol. The Ci Sai, with its fierce face and sharp Fangs, denotes the Q\u012bng dynasty for its brutality and harsh rule. The color green represents the word green; in the F\u00faji\u00e0n dialect of M\u01d0nn\u00e1ny\u01d4 (\u95a9\u5357\u8a9e), green is pronounced \u201cCi,\u201d which is Q\u012bng in M\u01d0nn\u00e1ny\u01d4 and sounds similar to Cing. Therefore, the green also symbolizes the Q\u012bng Green Standard Army, or L\u01dcy\u00edng (\u7da0\u71df), that are deployed in local civilian populations and act as constabulary to enforce Q\u012bng laws.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Finally, the shaven forehead of the lion and its wavy black hair represent the Manchu hairstyle, or queue, which was a shaved forehead and the back of the hair braided. This particular hairstyle was forced upon the H\u00e0n as a sign of submission by a conquered people. Also, it was used to quickly identify radicals. Therefore, whoever refused to have their forehead shaved was at risk of being arrested and beheaded. There was brutal saying: \u201cShave\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">your forehead or lose your head.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"5853\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/tambulimedia.com\/thoughts-expectations-eskrima\/img_1702-2\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/tambulimedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/IMG_1702-2.jpg?fit=800%2C600&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"800,600\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;2.2&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;iPhone 6&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1448701584&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;4.15&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;100&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.0333333333333&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"IMG_1702 (2)\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/tambulimedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/IMG_1702-2.jpg?fit=300%2C225&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/tambulimedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/IMG_1702-2.jpg?fit=640%2C480&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"wp-image-5853 size-medium alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/tambulimedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/IMG_1702-2.jpg?resize=300%2C225&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/tambulimedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/IMG_1702-2.jpg?resize=300%2C225&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/tambulimedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/IMG_1702-2.jpg?resize=768%2C576&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/tambulimedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/IMG_1702-2.jpg?resize=1024%2C768&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/tambulimedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/IMG_1702-2.jpg?resize=510%2C382&amp;ssl=1 510w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/tambulimedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/IMG_1702-2.jpg?resize=1080%2C810&amp;ssl=1 1080w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/tambulimedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/IMG_1702-2.jpg?w=800&amp;ssl=1 800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/>The Ci Sai routine consists of exponents fighting the Ci Sai with various weapons to symbolize the struggles of the H\u00e0n against the Manchu for their freedom. Finally, the ritual ends with the Ci Sai being subdued.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The tradition no longer represents political aggression or social rebellion, but hope, peace, and unity. However, it is very rare to see the Ci Sai performed today; hopefully, a new generation will uphold this unique tradition in the coming years.
