When there are many festivals and gatherings, or the usual slack time, it is a good time for Achang youths to start looking for their life partners. At this time, young men of the Achang ethnic group, no matter where they go, they must take the March flute with them, whether it is not around their waists or tucked into their clothes. When I saw my beloved Gu Liang, I started to play beautiful and beautiful songs, which meant that I wanted the girl to stop for a while, and then went up to chat. If the girl does not have a sweetheart at this time, and she is acquainted with the young man, she will respond skillfully. At this time, the young man naturally understood, and he proposed to send the girl home, but the girl replied "if you want to send it, you must send it to Zhaizitou, not halfway", so the young man happily played the flute, sang folk songs, accompanied him. When the girl goes home, pure love begins.

Whenever the sun goes down, the young men, after dinner, are busy washing and decorating, they quietly come to the house of their beloved girl, play the gourd flute, and use beautiful tunes to entice their sweethearts to come out to meet. The girl was flustered when she heard this kind and familiar tune, and hurried back to her room to dress up. Then go out for an excuse to have a tryst with a lover. If it is the first visit, the girl's sister-in-law or mother will open the door warmly and invite the young man to sit down by the fire in the house, and the family will avoid it. So the young man and the girl sat by the fire pit affectionately facing each other, or sang love songs duet, or whispered, lingering love words, and broke up reluctantly until the rooster announced the dawn.

Throughout the ages, I do not know how many young people in Achang have used this magical gourd flute to attract beautiful girls and become friends with Qin and Jin.

Due to the differences between ethnic groups and regions, the gourd flute of other ethnic minorities in Yunnan Province is still different in shape and playing method. However, they all have a common feature, that is, they are often used to play folk songs, especially good at playing music with smooth melody. Generally, there are more long tones in the tune, the chorus is rich, and the music is soft and harmonious, which can better express the player. thoughts and feelings.

Later, Chinese national musicians improved the gourd flute. These new musical instruments not only maintained the unique timbre and style of the traditional gourd flute, but also increased the volume, expanded the sound range, and enriched the sound color and expressiveness. The gourd flute, a folk musical instrument of Chinese ethnic minorities, was put on the stage, and it also appeared on the world art stage with the visits of Chinese musicians.
