Historical Information
Shi Ren was born from Guangyang. According to Yang Xi (楊戯), a former vassal of Shu Han who later wrote a historical record for his lord and allies, his name was only Shi Ren. In Guan Yu's scroll in Record of the Three Kingdoms and the Zizhi Tongjian, his name was Fu Shiren.

He was one of Liu Bei's generals who was stationed in Gong'an County. He went with the Prefect of Nanjun, Mi Fang, to reinforce Jing Province. Since they were initially prepared to join Lu Meng, they held a grudge against Guan Yu and worked together to vent their hatred. When Guan Yu sent his army to the war front, both of them refused to send supplies. In response, Guan Yu said, "When we return, we must dispose of Shi Ren and Mi Fang." Both parties remained weary of the other, but neither parties took any action against the other.

Lu Meng was cautious of the situation, thinking that Shi Ren and Mi Fang would impede his strategies if they left them in their current state. He feigned illness as an excuse to withdraw from the war front. Guan Yu took the bait and sent defenders from Nanjun to pursue their general retreat. Meanwhile, Lu Meng secretly lead troops towards Gong'an Castle, intimated them with his troops' numbers, and hailed for their surrender with Fu Yan as the messenger. Shi Ren didn't personally see Fu Yan but he responded with a letter depicting his intentions to never aid Wu and his honest desire to only cause harm to Guan Yu. With tears streaming down his cheeks, he surrendered. Lu Meng assigned him to join the march towards Nanjun. Mi Fang saw that Shi Ren was in their army and also submitted.
