History of Three Kingdoms
Chen Shou, the author of the Three Kingdoms, commented: "Guan Yu and Zhang Fei are all enemies, and the tiger ministers in the world. Feathering Cao Gong, flying Yan Yan, has the wind of a national scholar. Guan Yu (Lu Shuming) in the TV series Romance of the Three Kingdoms.
Conceited, flying fiercely without kindness, short-term submission, business figures are also very common. Wen Hui: "Guan Xiao Yurui." . Monroe: "I am a long and studious person, and I can easily read Zuo Zhuan." I am smart and manly, but I am also conceited and arrogant. " "Today is a matter, and guan yu is a bear is a tiger, so planning is safe? Zhuge Liang's Book and Guan Yu: "Meng Qi is a great hero with both civil and military skills. He is the best player in the world and a disciple of Fu and Peng. When you compete with Yide, you are not as good as the peerless group. Guo Jia and Cheng Yu called Guan Yu and Zhang Fei "enemies of ten thousand people"; Ye Liu called Guan Yu and Zhang Fei "brave to crown the three armies"; Zhou Yu called Guan Yu and Zhang Fei "general Xiong Hu"; Fu Gan called Guan Yu and Zhang Fei "brave and righteous, enemies of ten thousand people, must do. Yang praised and said, "Guan, born in, magnificent and winged." Ping Fan left and right sides, roaring to send electricity, benefiting from difficulties, praising the great cause of the Lord, chasing Korea and Geng, and singing in chorus with both virtues. He confessed rudeness in the TV series "The History of the Three Kingdoms" and raped Guan Yu (played by Yu Rongguang).
Sorrow, sorrow is only a touch of sorrow, falling on the country. At that time, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei became synonymous with later generations: The Book of Jin Xia Liu Biography: "Every time Jin and Xia Liu hit a thief, they were trapped and destroyed, and Hebei beat Guan Yu and Zhang Fei." Shu Wei Cui Yanbo biography: "Cui Gong, ancient Zhang Guan also." You can refer to the brave part of Zhang Guan in Volume 7 of Zhao Yi's Notes on the Twenty-two Histories, and sort out the information of ancient Guan Yu or Zhang Guan as synonyms of brave generals in detail.
Romance of the Three Kingdoms
Only the end of the Han Dynasty is invincible, and the clouds are long and unique. Shenwei can fight, and elegance is more knowledgeable. The sun is like a mirror, and the spring and autumn is just a thin cloud, which clearly covers the ages, more than three points! Red-faced, childlike, riding a red rabbit chasing the wind, thinking about Chi Di while driving. Holding a blue lantern to see the history of history, fighting the dragon and the moon, hiding in the clear blue sky.
Romantic hymns
Outstanding people only pursue the past to solve it, while scholars strive to worship Han Yunchang. One day, my brother and younger brother were in Taoyuan, and there were future emperors and kings. The wind and thunder are unparalleled, and the sun and the moon have light. So far, the temple looks at the world, and the ancient trees in West Western jackdaw are dying!
Ode to couplets
The master of tea association has a couplet in Hundred Tea Associations, and the second couplet is to praise Guan Gong's "righteousness". Guan Yi runs through the ages, and this couplet is aptly described as "prosperous times". The whole association is as follows: "002 of Hundred Tea Party" Han Xin ordered soldiers, and the more Guan Yu, the better, and the more Guan Yu.
Guan Yu's influence on later generations
The Romance of the Three Kingdoms has been widely circulated since it appeared in the late Yuan Dynasty and early Ming Dynasty, which has had a great influence on all social strata, so the image of Guan Yu's loyalty has been deeply rooted in people's hearts. Rulers of past dynasties strengthened feudal rule by building Guan Gong Temple. With the improvement of Guan Yu's position in the official religion, he became more and more popular among the people. As early as the Ming Dynasty, the temple was said to be "spread all over the world", saying that "its words can be heard in Beijing, drums and bells are ringing, and the years are getting longer and longer." In the Qing dynasty, there were many temples, and there was a saying that "Guandi Temple in the world bought more than 10,000 places". The so-called "today's Antarctic ridge is on the surface, and the North Pole is on the wall. All the children and women were shocked. The prosperity of incense is immortal with heaven and earth. " Yong Zhengdi also thinks: "From Datong City to Shanyihai, the village market invites the poor and secluded, and its people are humble pawns, such as the virtuous and the righteous, to the foolish husband, the foolish woman and the children, where they worship the appearance of the temple, rush to pray and look forward to it with awe." "Yun Chang is really a righteous man!" Cao Cao's words truly reflected Guan Yu's loyalty. Now all "societies" worship Guan Yu.
Edit the appearance of this paragraph.
The Romance of the Three Kingdoms describes Guan Yu's appearance as: "He is nine feet long and has a beard of two feet. If the face is heavy, the lips are fat, and the eyes of the phoenix sleep on the eyebrows of the silkworm, and the appearance is handsome and majestic. " Its phoenix eye and lying silkworm eyebrow are rare in the world. The phoenix eye is vigorous and powerful, and the lying silkworm is like fog, and its heroic spirit is compelling and domineering. It is said that he wants to kill people when he opens his eyes. Guan Yu and Hu Zimei, ten thousand enemies, loyalty and righteousness; Be good at reading Zuo's Spring and Autumn Annals, and you can read it like a stream. When he surrendered to Cao Ying, although he was treated with courtesy, he turned his heart to Liu Bei. Be kind to the foot soldiers. He even curetted bones to cure poison. He was once wounded by a poisonous arrow. Every rainy day, his arm hurts. The doctor said that it is necessary to scrape the bones and detoxify to recover. Guan Yu immediately stretched out his arm to the doctor and began to scrape the bone, bleeding profusely. However, Guan Yu ate meat and drank wine while playing chess with Ma Liang (everyone who saw it in the account was ashamed). He doesn't seem to feel pain.

Guan Yu's grandfather called Guan Yu and asked him. Born in Geng Yin in the second year of Han Yongyuan, he lived in Baochi, Pingcun, the governor. According to records, he is "good at admiring" and often admonishes his son with Yi and Chunqiu. Ding You died in the second year of Emperor Huan's eternal life at the age of 68.

When Yu grew up, he married Hu's wife, and the Emperor Lingguang visited Guan Xing in Hiuke on May 13th of the first year. (extant people think that Hu's name is Hu's deposit)
children
Guan Ping, the eldest son of Guan Yu, fought Guan Yu and was beheaded with Guan Yu in Linzhou. (In the romance, Guan Yu's adopted son, Guan Xing, and Guan Yu's second son, became famous at a young age, and was highly valued by Zhuge Liang. After the weak crown, he served as an assistant and overseer of China Army, and died several years later. Guan Yu's daughter Guan Feng (Guan Guan), Sun Quan once proposed for her son, but Guan Yu refused and insulted her (Guan Yu did have a daughter in history, but later generations added a name, but not in history). Guan Suo (this is a character in the Romance of Traditional Chinese Opera, which is not recorded in history), the third son of Guan Yu, was recovered in Baojiazhuang after Guan Yu lost Jingzhou, and Zhuge Liang returned to the army as a pioneer when he conquered Meng Huo in the south.

But the credibility of this record is controversial. The descendants of Guan in Xiezhou, Dangyang and Luoyang often claim to be descendants of Guan Yu, but there is no textual research.
Edit this character's life.
O Segredo
Portrait of Guan Gong
Guan Yu's life experience was unknown before the Qing Dynasty. During the reign of Kangxi in the early Qing Dynasty, the rulers of Xie (Hai) excavated the brick of Guan Yu's tomb while excavating and repairing the ancient well. It is engraved with the names of Guan Yuzu and his father, the date of birth and death, etc. And the information is more detailed, and there is a slight mention of Guan Yu's family situation. So, he wrote the tombstone of Guan Houzu. According to the written records on the tomb brick, Guan Jia is actually a family of literati. Guan Yu's grandfather called Guan Yu and asked him. Born in Geng Yin in the second year of Han Yongyuan, he lived in Baochi, Changping Village, Jiezhou (now Jiezhou Town, Shanxi Province). According to records, he is "good at admiring" and often admonishes his son with Yi and Chunqiu. Ding You died in the second year of Emperor Huan's eternal life at the age of 68. Feather father Guan Yi still has a long way to go. After his father's death, Xiaowen built a house and mourned on the tomb for three years. Apart from mourning, Guan Yu was born on June 24th in the third year of Yan Xi (160). When Guan Yu grew up, he married Hu's wife, and the spiritual emperor was in Guangping, Hiuke, on May 13th, the first year of Wuwu (178).
Sworn brothers
Guan Yu met the Eastern Han Dynasty government in Zhuo Jun County (now Zhuozhou, Hebei Province) to mobilize the local landlords to organize armed forces and suppress the Yellow Scarf Uprising. Here, he met Liu Bei (Liu Bei claimed to be the son of Sun Yat-sen Jing, the emperor of the Western Han Dynasty) and Zhang Fei, who were gathering people to fight, just like Guan Yu.
Love at first sight, abnormal friendship, as close as brothers. According to legend, Liu, Guan and Zhang became sworn friends in Taoyuan. The Romance of the Three Kingdoms expressed their vows: "Although we are brothers with different surnames, we should work together to help the poor; Serve the country, go to peace and prosperity, don't want to be born on the same day in the same year, just want to die on the same day in the same year. " Although this is a novelist's statement, it has great influence, because it conforms to the mentality of the middle and lower classes in an era of frequent turmoil. Many peasant uprisings in later generations followed the example of swearing in the teacher's righteousness to consolidate the ranks and strengthen unity. The three men organized an armed force and took part in the attack on the peasant rebels. Guan Yu also began his military career. From the first year of Zhong Ping (184) to his death, Guan Yu always faithfully followed Liu Bei, "walking with him and avoiding difficulties and obstacles" (The Story of the Three Kingdoms Shu Shu Guan Yu).
Cao Cao appreciates it.
Cao Cao praised Guan Yu as a man and worshipped him as a partial general. He is very polite. Soon, I understood that Guan Yu was not practical and didn't want to stay long. Guan Yu's image in traditional Chinese opera.
He said to Zhang Liao, who had a good relationship with Guan Yu, "Please try to beg him with your feelings." . Zhang Liao went to ask Guan Yu, and Guan Yu sighed, "I know very well that Tsao Gong has always been very kind to me, but I was sworn to death by General Liu's great kindness, and I can't carry it back. I won't stay until the end, but I will effectively report Zuo Zongtang's departure "("The Three Kingdoms Shu Shu Zhang Guan Macelo Wong Zhao Chuan "). Zhang Liao told Cao Cao about Guan Yu's remarks. When Cao Cao heard about it, he didn't resent Guan Yu, but thought he was kind and valued him more. Cao Cao praised Guan Yu for his bravery, rewarded him and named him Hanshou Hou Ting (Hanshou, place name; Hou Ting, marquis). After Guan Yu killed Yan Liang, Cao Cao knew he would go, so he rewarded him. Guan Yu sealed all the rewards that Cao Cao gave him many times, wrote a farewell letter to Cao Cao, protected Liu Bei's family, and left Cao Ying to look for Liu Bei in Yuan Shao's army. When Cao Cao's soldiers heard about it, they all wanted to catch up. Cao Cao dissuaded them from saying, "Let's do our own things, so don't catch up" (Biography of the Three Kingdoms, Shu Shu and Liu Guanyu). From Guan Yu's capture and meritorious service to Cao Cao's return to Liu Bei, this experience has been passed down from mouth to mouth and spread widely. By the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, a colorful story unit has been formed, including three things about Tu Shan (not Cao but Han; Treat yisow with courtesy; I will resign as soon as I know the whereabouts of Liu Bei. Cao Cao treated Guan Yu well, with a small banquet for three days and a big banquet for five days; Cao Cao gave the robe, Guan Yu put it on the bottom of his coat and covered it with Liu Beici's old robe, not daring to forget the old with the new; Cao Cao gave a red rabbit horse, and Guan Yu thanked it, thinking that Liu Bei could be seen one day riding this horse; Guan Gong beheaded Yan Liang; Guan Gong hangs the seal gold; Old town brothers meet, etc. On the land of China, this story is known to all women and children.
Fang yi Cao Cao
After Cao Cao occupied Jiangling, the momentum was even stronger, and it was very likely that Liu Bei, who had no place to stand a cone, would be swallowed up and Sun Quan in Jiangdong would be destroyed. This happened when Sun Quan and Liu Bei defeated Cao Cao's famous Battle of Red Cliffs. In November, Sun and Liu teamed up to defeat Cao Cao in Chibi (now the scenic spot in Chibi Town, chibi city). The 10,000 elite water army led by Guan Yu was the main force of Liu Bei and played an important role in this battle. In order to highlight the characteristics of Guan Yu's "full of emotion and heavy righteousness", later generations performed the details of his interpretation of Cao Cao in Huarong Road, which is widely known so far.
Command Jingzhou
[1] Jingzhou includes Nanyang, Nanjun, Jiangxia, Wuling, Changsha, Guiyang and Lingling. It is a strategic place for Cao Cao, Liu Bei and Sun Quan. After Battle of Red Cliffs, Cao Cao also occupied the northern part of Nanyang County and Nanjun County, while Sun Quan occupied Jiangxia County and Nanguanyu.
The south of the county. The so-called "borrowing Jingzhou" means that Sun Quan lent Liu Bei the southern part of Nanjun, which he occupied. In the second year of Liu Bei's acquisition of Yizhou (2 15), Sun Quan sent Zhu Gejin as a special envoy to discuss with Liu Bei and demanded that several counties in the south of Jingzhou be returned to Dongwu. Liu Bei refused, and Sun Quan sent a group of officials to take over Changsha, Lingling and Guiyang counties. Guan Yu resolutely refused, and all the officials sent by Sun Quan were blown back. In a rage, Sun Quan immediately sent Lv Meng to lead 20,000 soldiers and horses to forcibly seize these three counties. After Lv Meng captured Changsha and Guiyang counties, Liu Bei quickly led 50,000 troops to the public security, and sent Guan Yu to lead 30,000 military forces to Yiyang to recapture these two counties. Sun Quan also personally went to Lukou and sent Lu Su to lead 10,000 soldiers and horses in Yiyang to refuse Guan Yu. Wu Dong's army and Guan Yu's army are camped in Yiyang, facing each other.
San Antonio
In 2 15, Liu Bei took Yizhou, and Sun Quan ordered Zhu Gejin to ask Liu Bei for Jingzhou. Liu Bei refused, and Sun Quan was very angry, so he sent Monroe to lead the army to get Guan Yu.
Changsha, Lingling and Guiyang counties. Changsha and Guiyang Shu will surrender immediately. When Liu Bei learned of it, he personally rushed to the police from Chengdu (now Hubei Public Security Bureau) and sent General Guan Yu to compete for the three counties. Sun Quan also immediately stationed in Lukou and sent Lu Su to station troops in Yiyang to resist Guan Yu. At this critical juncture, in order to maintain the alliance between Sun and Liu and not give Cao Cao an opportunity, Lu Su decided to discuss it face to face with Guan Yu. "Sue invited us to meet each other, and each of us kept a hundred paces, and all the generals were alone." After the talks, the two sides eased the tension. Subsequently, Sun Quan and Liu Bei agreed to divide Jingzhou equally. "Taking Hunan as the boundary, so the army will stop." The alliance between Sun and Liu was maintained. This "one-knife meeting" was perfunctory by dramatists and novelists. Guan Yu became a hero, while Lu Su became a short-sighted and timid dwarf. This is an artist's creation, not a historical truth. Lu Su single-handedly promoted the alliance between Sun and Liu, and it was "difficult to keep for life" (Wang Fu's words). So Liu Bei and Sun Quan became stronger and established Shu and Wu to compete with Cao Wei. The Three Kingdoms period only appeared in the history of China.
Scrape the toxins off the bones.
Guan Yu's bravery is extraordinary, which is the highest in the whole army. In later novels, he wrote that Hua Xiong, Lu Bu, Che Zhou, Yan Liang and Wen Chou rode thousands of miles alone, went to the meeting with one knife and drove the seven armies. Although some of them go against historical facts, they also highlight his military courage and charm. As for curettage, it is well known. Guan Yu was shot by random arrows and hit his right arm. Although the wound has healed, the bone often hurts when it rains. The doctor said: "Sagittarius is poisonous, poisonous to the bones." Treat the broken arm as a wound, scrape the bone to remove poison, and then cut the ear. " Guan Yu stretched out his arm to let the doctor cut the wound. At that time, Guan Yu was giving a banquet to entertain the generals. "The blood on the arm is all over the plate, while the feather cuts and drinks, talking and laughing."
Guan Gong was killed.
In that year 1 1 month, Lv Meng led his troops out to take shelter from the wind, entered Xunyang (now northeast of Jiujiang, Jiangxi), ambushed elite soldiers on a disguised merchant ship, dressed soldiers in white, disguised themselves as businessmen, and mobilized the people to paddle and paddle, and traveled day and night to return to Jiangling and attack it. Everything is very hidden and mysterious. Lv Meng knew Guan Yu and serenade, and expected that he would escape by way of the north of Maicheng, so he sent troops to ambush in advance. In December, Sun Quan sent messengers to Maicheng to persuade Guan Yu to surrender. Guan Yu suggested that Wu Jun retreat ten miles and meet at the south gate. Lv Meng really retreated ten miles, waiting for Guan Yu to surrender. Guan Yu and his eldest son Guan Ping sneaked out of the north gate and fled to the west with a dozen cavalry. Captured by Pan Zhang general Ma Zhong, he is bound to see Sun Quan. Sun Quan surrendered to Guan Yu, who was killed by Pan Zhang and his son Guan Ping in Linzhou. He died at the age of 58, and his second son, Guan Xingsi, was named "Han Shou Ting Hou". In the third year of Jing Yao (A.D. 260), Liu Chan, Emperor Huai of Shu, made Guan Yu "the Queen of Qianghe Temple". In the autumn of the 24th year of Jian 'an (AD 2 19), Guan Yu led his troops to attack Fancheng and Xiangyang, and ordered Mi Fang, the satrap of Nanjun County, to guard Jiangling, while Fu Shiren, the general, was responsible for public security and logistics supply. At that time, the battle ahead was fierce, and Guan Yu won day by day, but military supplies were often not available. Guan Yu thought that the two men were seriously dereliction of duty and threatened: "Go back and treat them well!" Elk Fang and Fu Shiren were usually dissatisfied with Guan Yu's contempt for themselves. When they returned to the army, they heard that Guan Yu was going to punish them, and they were naturally very scared. Therefore, when Lu Meng sent the feather fan to surrender, he did not hesitate to give Jiangling and the police to the feather fan, so that Guan Yu lost his position and was defeated.
Edit this biography of the reflection, Shu Shu and Guan Yu.
Guan Yu's words are long and immortal, and Hedong solves people. Desperate to run to Zhuo county. Grandfather met his disciples in the village, and Yu and Zhang Fei defended them. Ancestors are plain facies, feather and fly are other branches, and they are divided into different branches. If the deceased Lord sleeps with two people, he will sleep together, and if he is a brother. The thick people sit wide and stand up all day, dealing with their ancestors and not avoiding difficulties and obstacles. After the attack, the assassin in Xuzhou was killed, and he was ordered to guard Pi City and be a satrap, but he was still young. In the fifth year of Jian 'an, Cao Gong made an expedition to the east, and his ancestors went to Yuan Shao. Cao Gong returned from Feather and worshipped him as a partial general, which was very generous. Shao sent Yan Liang, a general, to lead the satrap to the White Horse, and Cao Cao ordered Zhang Liao and Yu to be pioneers. Feather saw the cover of a good man, stabbed him in the crowd on horseback, beheaded him, and let go of what the generals could not do, thus solving the problem of Bai Mawei. Cao Gong named his feather the Pavilion Hou of Hanshou. Tso was a strong man at the beginning, but he didn't want to stay in his mind for too long. He said to Zhang Liao, "Please ask him as emotionally as possible." Liao asked Yu, who sighed, "I am well aware of Cao Gong's kindness to me, but I was sworn to death by General Liu's kindness and I can't carry it back. After all, I won't stay. I'll report to Cao Gong immediately. " Liao Yiyu reported Cao Gong and Cao Gongyi. But after killing Yan Liang, Tso knew he would go, so he rewarded him. Feather thanked him, said goodbye to Shu En, and ran to Yuan Jun first. When the left and right wanted to chase him, Cao Gong said, "Each is his own master, so don't chase him." Liu Biao from the past. Table pawn, Cao Gong decided Jingzhou, and later he crossed the river with Fan, and did not send feathers to Jiangling by boat. Tso chased him as far as Dangyang Changsakan, but as far as Hanjin, so he took a feather boat and went to Xiakou. Sun Quan sent troops to help the late Lord refuse Tsao Gong, and Tsao Gong returned with his army. The ancestors took over the counties in the south of the Yangtze River, but they worshipped the founding fathers, taking Yu as the satrap and general Xiangyang, and stationed in Jiangbei. The late Lord decided Yizhou in the west and worshipped Dong Yu as the prefect of Jingzhou. When I heard that Ma Chao had fallen, I was not an old friend. Yu Shu and Zhuge Liang asked, "Who can super talents compare with?" Only then did he know how to protect Yu Liang, and replied, "Meng was a great hero because of his combination of civil and military skills. He is the best player in the world and a disciple of Fu and Peng. He wants to compete with Yide for the first place, but he is not as good as Xun. " Feather beauty must have a beard, so the light is called a beard. Feather province book big yue, to show the guests. Feather flavor was hit by a flowing arrow and penetrated his left arm. Although the wound has healed, every time it rains, the bone often hurts. The doctor said: "sagittarius is poisonous, and it is poisonous to the bone." Scraping the bones to remove poison from the broken arm, and then removing the disease. " The feather stuck out his arm and let the doctor cut it. Feather clothes were smooth, so the general was invited to eat and drink relatively. Blood flowed from his arm, and a plate was full of dishes. Feather clothes drank and laughed. In twenty-four years, the late Lord was the king of Hanzhong, and the former general worshipped Yu. /kloc-at the age of 0/8, Yu led a crowd to attack Coss and Fan. Tsao Gong was sent to the forbidden help benevolence. Autumn, heavy rain, the Han River flooded, and the Seventh Army was not supervised by the Forbidden City. No feathers, feathers cut general pounds. Liang, Yong and Lu Hun were thieves or received the title of feather from afar, so they supported the army and supported the party, which shocked China. Cao Gong proposed to move the capital to avoid its sharpness. Sima Wang Xuan and Jiang Ji thought Guan Yu would succeed, but Sun Quan wouldn't. You can send someone to persuade the right army to secretly follow behind, or you can cut the south of the Yangtze River to seal the right army, and then Fan Wei will solve it himself. Cao Gong followed closely. First, the right to send an emissary to seek jade for his son, so Yu scolded and humiliated his emissary and forbade him to get married. The right wing is angry. Mi Fang, the satrap of Nanjun County, is in Jiangling, and General Fu Shiren is in charge of public security. They all think feathers are lighter than themselves. After leaving the army, Fang and Ren provided military forces, but they didn't know about the rescue. Yu Dao: "It's time to cure." Fang and Ren are both afraid and uneasy. Therefore, power yin lures Fang and benevolence, and Fang and benevolence make people welcome power. Tso sent Huang Xu to save Coss, and the troops returned. The power has been taken from Jiangling, the wives of the feather scholars have been captured, and the feather army has dispersed. The right to send the generals to attack the feathers, cut the feathers and level with Linzhou. Chasing feathers and calling Hou. Purple star. You rarely ask the question of the country's prosperity, but Prime Minister Zhuge Liang is different. The weak crown served as the upper middle school supervisor and died at a few years old. The son is the heir, the princess is the princess, and the official is the commander of the samurai corps. Single, childless, easy to continue to seal the Hou in order to promote illegitimate children.

The embodiment of loyalty.
Guan Gong is a kind of culture; Some people say that Guan Gong is a kind of spirit. Otherwise, why are there so many temples for Guan Gong in China and overseas? Of all the Guandi Temple buildings in China, five or six are best preserved so far: Changping Guandi Temple, the hometown of Guan Yu in Shanxi, Guanlin in Luoyang, Henan, Guanling in Dangyang, Hubei, Guandi Temple in Jingzhou and Baling Bridge Guandi Temple in Xuchang, Henan, etc. One of the largest and most magnificent is Guandi Temple, located in Guan Yu's hometown, west of Jiezhou, Yuncheng City, Shanxi Province. The largest Guandi Temple in China is still preserved. There are more than 300 pavilions in the temple, which is one of the tourist attractions. It can be called the first temple in the world. Moreover, in China, Japan, Southeast Asia and overseas Chinese, the worship of Guan Yu is still vivid. In Taiwan Province Province, with a population of more than 20 million, there are as many as 8 million followers of Guan Gong, and almost every household has set up incense tables, set up memorial tablets and hung icons for Guan Gong. The annual sales volume of Guan Gong's portraits in Taiwan Province Province far exceeds their most revered god Mazu. The American "Longgang General Association" is a non-governmental organization, whose ancestor is Guan Yu, and there are more than 140 branches all over the world where Chinese live. Southeast Asian countries compete to build temples to worship Guan Yu, and Thailand is the most prosperous. In Japan, there was Guandi Temple as early as the Qing Dynasty. A new Guandi Temple was built a few years ago, which is said to be the largest Guandi Temple overseas. Mr. David Jordan, a professor of anthropology at the University of California, San Diego and a doctor of anthropology at the University of Chicago, once said a very interesting sentence. "I respect you the great god, he deserves the respect of everyone. His benevolence, righteousness, wisdom and courage are still meaningful until now. Benevolence is love, righteousness is credibility, wisdom is culture, and courage is not afraid of difficulties. If all God's people are like you Guan Gong, our world will be a better place. " The American scholar's words are quite insightful. Loyalty, righteousness, faithfulness, wisdom, benevolence and courage, which are condensed on Guan Yu and admired by all previous dynasties, contain the ethics and ideals of China traditional culture, permeate the essence of Confucianism in the Spring and Autumn Period, and merge with Buddhism and Taoism. Essentially, they are brilliant souls of China.
