As we all know, there are many famous sayings in the Three Kingdoms that can be blurted out. For example: "I am Zhao Zilong of Changshan" is Zhao Yun's mantra, and "Zhang Yide of Yan" is Zhang Fei's self-proclaimed , and the thick-skinned Liu Bei claimed to be: "A clan member of the Han Dynasty, Queen of Prince Jing of Zhongshan." So the question is, as the "biggest winner", have we ever heard Guan Yu call himself such a person? The answer is no, then everyone else has this kind of shining self-introduction, why doesn't Guan Yu? How did he call himself?

The first time Guan Yu appeared was when he met Liu Bei. He called himself "I". When he warmed the wine and killed Hua Xiong, he finally changed into two words: "Little General". After he took refuge with Cao Cao, he called himself "I". "Someone", these three self-titles can actually tell some clues from the tone. "I" sounds like a more solemn written word, so he left it to Liu Bei, who has a good reputation, and "little general" is actually a modest name. Hua Xiong was yelling and scolding outside, and the princes in the room didn't know who to send to fight. At this time The unknown Liu Bei and his gang suddenly appeared in a scene where they were beheading Hua Xiong while drinking wine, which further highlighted the shocking sense of disparity. "Someone" was somewhat of a peer, meaning neither salty nor salty, indicating that both he and Cao Cao belonged to the Han Dynasty. Minister.

In ancient operas, when actors sketched Guan Gong’s facial makeup, they would deliberately add a black dot or a gold line on the facial makeup. This is called “broken face”, which means they dare not completely imitate Guan Gong. Those who are particular about it even have to fast and bathe for ten days before playing Guan Gong, burn incense and bow before the statue of Guan Gong before going on stage, put a yellow watch attached to the statue of Guan Gong on their helmet or chest, wipe their face with this watch after the performance, and then take it with them. Burning in front of the statue of Guandi, during special plots, such as "Zou Maicheng", burning sandalwood and lighting candles on and off the stage, etc.

All of this is to express respect for Guan Gong, because as mentioned at the beginning of the article, Guan Gong is the biggest winner in "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms". Because of his loyalty, he is constantly praised by future generations. Myths, even in novels, mostly refer to themselves as "someone", and they will not say where Guan Yu is from. Moreover, in the novel, Guan Yu took his life in his hometown, so naturally he will not be the same as Guan Yu and Zhao Yun. The same goes for self-reporting.
