六展室——镖师风范当时的十大镖师有：镖不喊沧创规者李冠铭，双刀镖师李风岚，形意宗师车永宏，华北形意大师戴二闾，华北面王王正清，铁腿左二把，大刀王五王子斌，单刀李存义，散打冠军赵光第，技艺精湛的李尧臣。其中王正清、左二把、戴二闾被称为华北三杰。有句口号说“王家枪、戴家拳、左家弹腿走天下，道光皇帝做后盾，打遍天下无敌手”。因为王正清和道光皇帝是同门师兄弟，所以这家镖局在走镖过程中没有失过一趟镖，信誉度是比较高的。这边供奉有关公，走旱路要拜的，出门求平安。拜关公是忠义勇的化身，所以拜关公是镖局对镖师个人德行的内在约束，一个优秀的镖师不仅要武艺高强，而且还要讲信义，够忠诚，为人正直，对于雇主的拖镖，必须安全送达，如果无法安全送达，不仅是镖局的巨大损失，也会让镖师在行业内无法立足，所以三百年来镖局的整个发展史，极少出现监守自盗的情况，这与镖师的忠义勇是密不可分的，这也是拜关公的原因之一。

Exhibition Hall 6 – Dignity of Legendary Escorts
 
There were ten most renowned escort masters in ancient times:
Li Guanming, the originator of the rule "No escort chants through Cangzhou";
Li Fenglan, master of double broadswords;
Che Yonghong, grandmaster of Xingyi Quan;
Dai Erlü, preeminent master of Xingyi Quan in North China;
Wang Zhengqing, hailed as the "Flour King" of North China;
Zuo Erba, known as "Iron Leg";
Wang Zibin, nicknamed Big Sword Wang Wuyi;
Li Cunyi, master of the single broadsword;
Zhao Guangdi, champion of free combat;
Li Yaochen, a consummate all-round martial artist.
 
Among them, Wang Zhengqing, Zuo Erba and Dai Erlü are collectively known as the Three Heroes of North China. A popular folk jingle records their fame:
Wang’s spear, Dai’s fist, Zuo’s kicking skills travel all under heaven;
Backed by the Daoguang Emperor, they conquer every foe without rival.
 
Since Wang Zhengqing shared the same martial arts master as the Daoguang Emperor, his agency never lost a single consignment during all its escort missions, boasting an impeccable reputation.
 
The shrine here enshrines Guan Gong, whom all land escorts worshipped before setting off to pray for safe journeys. Guan Gong stands as the embodiment of loyalty, trustworthiness, righteousness and bravery, and worshipping him served as an inner moral restraint for all escorts. An outstanding escort needed not only extraordinary martial prowess, but also integrity, loyalty and rectitude. They bore full responsibility for safely delivering all entrusted cargo. Failure to fulfill this duty would bring devastating financial losses to the agency and ruin the escort’s career within the trade. Throughout the 300-year history of escort agencies, cases of escorts stealing the consignments under their guard were extremely rare — a testament to their adherence to the virtues of loyalty, righteousness and bravery, which is also a core reason why Guan Gong was enshrined in every agency.
