Liulin flower drum originated in the early Qing Dynasty. The story originated from the water margin. People disguised Song Jiang and Wu Yong as flower drum artists, robbed the Fachang to save Lu Junyi. The story combined with the local popular GuZi Yangko, became a fixed form of performance, and finally developed into a unique folk dance "Liulin flower drum". At present, it only exists in Liulin Town, Guanxian County, Shandong Province. The scope of performance extends to dozens of towns in Linqing and Liaocheng and Guantao in Hebei Province.

Liulin flower drum originally consists of two parts: the first part shows Liangshan heroes singing and dancing all the way into the city in disguise; the second part shows their fighting scenes of robbing the Dharma field to rescue Lu Junyi. Only the first part remains.
