The vertical konghou (pinyin: shù kōng hóu) is a bow and stringed musical instrument of the Buyi people. It is popular in all counties in the Baise area of western Guizhou, Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, Zhenfeng, Xingyi, Anlong, Ceheng, Wangmo, and Funing County of Wenshan Zhuang and Miao Autonomous Prefecture in Yunnan Province.

The structure is similar to the erhu, but the appearance is quite different. The resonator is in the shape of a gourd, which is made of naturally grown gourd shells of large and small sections. The bottom of the gourd at one end of the thick section is removed, and the incision is covered with old bamboo shoots or paulownia wood veneer. The end of the gourd details is carved with plum petal-shaped sound holes. .

It is often used for instrumental ensemble or drama accompaniment. It is the accompaniment instrument for the Zhuang Eight-Music Ensemble, North Road Zhuang Opera, Buyi Opera and Eight-Yin Sitting Opera. It is also used for solo entertainment. Often used in national festivals or folk festive occasions. Huluhu does not have a special tune, and most of the music played are Zhuang opera tunes, and the repertoire is the same as that of Maguhu. Good at playing euphemistic lyric, smooth like a song.
