备，是汉朝中山靖王刘胜的后代。一天，他边看榜文边长叹，忽听背后有人说：“男子汉大丈夫不思为国出力，在这里叹什么气?”并自报姓名说：“我叫张飞，靠卖酒杀猪为生。”刘备说出自己姓名后说：“我想为国出力，又感到力量不够，故而长叹!”张飞说：“这没什么可难的，我可以拿出家产，招兵买马，创建大业。”刘备听后非常高兴。二人来到一个小店，边喝酒边谈，正说得投机，门外突然来了一个红脸大汉，威风凛凛，相貌堂堂。刘备、张飞请他一同饮酒。交谈中得知，此人名关羽，因仗义除霸有家不能归，已流落江湖五、六年了。他们各自抒发自己的志向，谈得十分投机。
隔日，三人来到一个桃园，点燃香烛，拜告天地，结为兄弟。按年龄刘备为大哥，关羽
