According to legend, during the Three Kingdoms period, Zhuge Liang led his troops to attack the southern barbarians and captured seven and six. of the barbarian general Meng Huo, forcing Meng Huo to finally surrender. Zhuge Liang's troops had to cross the Lu River to return to the court.
When the army's chariots and horses were preparing to cross the river, a strong wind suddenly rose, the waves reached thousands of feet, the ghosts screamed, and the wolves yelled, and the army was unable to cross the river. At that time, Zhuge Liang summoned Meng Huo to ask why. It turned out that the two armies were fighting and the fallen soldiers were unable to return to their hometowns to reunite with their families, so they created trouble on the river to prevent the soldiers from returning . If the armywants to cross the river, she must sacrifice 49 heads of barbarian soldiers to the river to ensure calm.
Zhuge Liang thought to himself: Casualties are inevitable in the battle between the two armies, how can we kill 49 more lives? Thinking of this, he made a plan, that is, he ordered the cook to use rice flour as the skin and fill it with the meat of black cattle and white sheep to shape 49 human heads. Then they set the table with incense and sprinkle wine to worship the river.
Since then, the term "steamed buns" has become popular among the people. When Zhuge Zongzhi conquered Meng Huo, he ordered people to sacrifice bread and meat as human heads, which they called "barbarian heads", which are now erroneously called steamed buns. After all, the steamed buns invented by Zhuge Liang contain fillingss made from beef and mutton, and the process is complicated and expensive. As a result, later generations omitted the stuffing making process, which became today's steamed buns. The stuffed ones become steamed buns.
