The Three Kingdoms is an era of heroes, the vicissitudes of the sea show the true colors of heroes, without war and smoke can not emerge heroes Haojie, in the three kingdoms chaos to achieve these heroes or these heroes to create the three kingdoms, is a topic that can never be clear.
In Chinese tradition, there are often things that enshrine famous ancients as gods. For example, in ancient times, many dynasties named Li Bing and his son who built Dujiangyan as gods, hoping that these two grandfathers would always keep the wind and rain around Sichuan smooth. After the chaos of the Three Kingdoms, two people were also named gods by the people.
The first person is the martial saint Guan Yu, whom we know. It was not difficult to understand that Guan Yu was named a martial saint. First of all, he is loyal, which is rare in ancient and modern times. He took his sister-in-law to Cao Cao's account without knowing whether his eldest brother Liu Bei was dead or alive, but because he could not bear to betray Liu Bei, he took his sister-in-law through five levels and six generals to find Liu Bei after repaying Cao Cao's grace of not killing, and achieved a good story for thousands of years. Moreover, Guan Yu is highly powerful, able to cut off the face of good and ugly, and can also beg Huaxiong with warm wine.
More importantly, he does not look ordinary, red skin and slit eyes, he is not an ordinary person at a glance, so after comprehensive consideration, everyone believes that Guan Yu can best bear the symbol of the loyalty of the Chinese nation to martial arts practitioners, so all the dynasties and dynasties regard him as a martial saint.
In addition to Guan Yu, there was another person in the Three Kingdoms who was also named a god. In his early years, he did nothing evil, and after he became famous, he was still ostracized everywhere, but because of his great military achievements, he was protected by the corpse of a spiritual crow in the mountains after his death, so he was named a god by the Song Dynasty government. He was Gan Ning, the general of the State of Wu.
Gan Ning was a different man from other famous generals. During the Three Kingdoms period, yuan shao of the fourth dynasty and three dukes, and Liu Bei, who had the blood of the emperor, were particularly respected when they said it. Even Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, who did not have any family, had to be born innocent. However, this Gan Ning was a great thief before he became famous. This Jiangyang thief is really a thief on Jiangyang.
When he was young, Gan Ning worked every day to drive his tiger skin boat to plunder the river, and even the government could not take him. Later, he felt that it was not a way to go on like this, so he turned to Huang Zu, the boss of Jiangdong at that time. In Huang Zu, he was not reused, and finally came to the Sun camp. Under Sun Ce and Sun Quan, Gan Ning's talents were fully utilized, and various hard battles were always Gan Ning's first appearance, and once he appeared, there was nothing else to do.
At the time of Liu Bei's attack on Eastern Wu, Gan Ning was already seriously ill and was accidentally killed by an arrow from the other side. After falling from his horse, the body was taken away and escorted by many crows. This story also establishes immortal folklore.
In the Song Dynasty, the government also decreed that Gan Ning be made a god and build a temple for him to enjoy incense. He became the second Three Kingdoms figure to be enshrined.
