What does the music notation "/ / / /" mean in a music drum score?
I have a drum score sheet music with 4/4 time signature in which the following portion is present.
.

Now, I am unable to understand the symbols in the bar:

Also, what to repeat for the second Repeat 1 bar?

P.S.

I have removed the actual score to avoid copyright violation.
Please also note the bar numbers.
The actual sheet music is from this link: www.drumeo.com/blog/break-sticks-play-along/

Counting Verse 1 from bar 5. Bar 5 & 6 are repeated 7 times to lead to bar 21. = 16 bars
Bar 21 is repeated 6 times Then the 4 slashes / are played solo or freeform = 8 bars.
These 8 bars are then repeated to come to bar 37

I'm just going to keep it really simple: The measure in question is to be played 'free' or 'fill'. You can do whatever feels right musically to you, then continue on as you were playing before.
