Yeah, I know san guo zi is more accurate recorded by chen shou.
However, I disagree that romance of 3k by Luo guan zhong "godified"
Lu bu character. yeah, you can say romance version godified alot of
chars.. such char like Zhuge liang which was very much over-rated
in the tv series, and char like Guan Yu; dont people think he is
noble and loyal? but look how he die, he was arrogant and fall into
Lu meng's trap. And people pray to him.. which make him an arrogant
god? (Sorry, no offense)
Lu Bu, on the other hands... people say that he is disloyal and
stuff.. but think of a longer way... If Dong Zhuo was to rule
China, guess how many people will die? I guess he was more cruel
than Japanese invasion... Lu Bu was somehow 'chosen' to end the
hardship but nobody remember.. "If you cant win him, join him.. if
you think you can win him, then kill him" That's how his legend
start....
As for Liu Guan Zhang, they are nobody during Lu Bu's era. If you
want to be famous, defeat Lu bu or at least ended a draw with
him... That's how they got their fame.
Lastly, Lu Bu was from northern where Mogol was.. And Mogol was a
tough country last time and bore many great warrior like Gengis
Khan. So, Lu Bu got some toughness there already...
Dont you think?
