When steamed bread was handed down from the Three Kingdoms, Meng Huo, the owner of Nanman Cave in southern Sichuan, always attacked and harassed him, and Zhuge Liang personally led the troops to conquer Meng Huo. Lushui area is vast and sparsely populated, miasma is heavy, and Lushui is toxic.

Zhuge Liang's men put forward a superstitious idea: kill some "Na Man" prisoners and give their heads to the river god of Lushui. Of course, Zhuge Liang could not promise to kill the prisoners of "Nan Man", but in order to boost morale, he came up with a way: using flour and dough brought by the army, kneading them into heads and steaming them as sacrifices instead of "Nan Man" to worship the river god.

Crystal cake is a famous scenic spot in Weinan, Shaanxi. It is characterized by gold-faced silver bands, crisp peeling, refreshing tongue and teeth, and sweet and palatable. Legend has it that Kou Zhun, an official in the Song Dynasty, was honest and won the hearts of the people. One year, Kou Zhun returned to his hometown Weinan from Kyoto, the capital of the Song Dynasty, to visit relatives in the countryside, which coincided with his 50th birthday. Hard-working villagers sent birthday peaches, noodles and plaques to congratulate them, and Kou Zhun hosted a birthday party.

After three rounds of wine, suddenly his men brought an exquisite paulownia box, which Kou Zhun opened and contained 50 glittering and translucent snacks. On top of the dessert, there is a piece of red paper with a poem written neatly: "Gong crystal eyes, crystal heart, can distinguish between loyalty and treachery, innocence and no dust." It was signed by the old man of Weibei. Later, the chefs in Kou Zhun also made this kind of dim sum, and Kou Zhun gave it a nice name according to its characteristics, called "Crystal Cake".
