Today, the Panxi region was the starting and ending place of the rebellion in the four counties of Nanzhong. The Zhugeying Site is located in Fangshan, at the border of Panzhihua and Yongren County, Yunnan. In Huimin Township, Yanbian County, Panzhihua City, as well as Baipo Township and Malong Township in Miyi County, there are "Dajianyan" rocks that are said to be the result of Zhuge's southern expedition arrows piercing through cliffs, and there are still remnants of the so-called "Kongming arrows" on them. Legend has it that when Zhuge Nanzheng entered Zuodi, the rebels hid in the dense forest and shouted, with no way to find them. Zhuge Liang then ordered Zhao Yun to shock the barbarians with his extraordinary martial arts skills. Zhao Zilong was ordered to pull out an arrow and shoot with a curved bow. The arrow made a sound and plunged into the cliff, causing the mountains to shake and the swallows to fly in shock. The Yi chieftain was intimidated and shouted "divine arrows" repeatedly. He quickly led the rebel army out of the dense forest and surrendered, offering the wild animals he had hunted to show his sincerity. Zhuge Liang was overjoyed and ordered the military cooks to prepare a banquet for him. At different times, wine and food arrived. The wine was fragrant Yamanashi wine, and the dishes consisted of three dishes. The main ingredient was wild chicken offered by the Yi chieftain, while the auxiliary ingredients were different. They were bird's nest, bamboo shoots, and yam collected on site, stewed in a military pot called copper (copper hot pot) with a wide mouth and belly. The pungent fragrance made the Yi chieftain salivate. Three pots of dishes were placed on the table, and Zhuge Liang pointed them out one by one. He smiled and said, "This is actually a flower offering to Buddha. The chicken is a wild chicken offered by the emperor, and the cuisine is bird's nest on the rocks shot down by General Zhao, as well as bamboo shoots and yams collected by the soldiers." He then asked, "What is the name of this mountain?" The barbarian chieftain replied, "Berlin Mountain!" Zhuge Liang heard this and praised, "Berlin Mountain is truly a precious mountain! You are so lucky to guard such a precious mountain. Why should you cause trouble?" The barbarian chieftain felt ashamed and vowed not to listen to people's temptation again. He would forever be a submissive person of Shu Han and respectfully request the Prime Minister to give him a solution. From then on, the three dishes spread and became famous dishes passed down from generation to generation in the Qiong and Zu areas
