In the television version of The Romance of the Three Kingdoms, three pats on the ox's "venerable rump" is enough to set it into motion--an embellishment to the story that originated with the collection Popular Tales from the History of the Three Kingdoms.
連續劇「三國演義」中，只要打三下牛的「尊臀」就可以讓它走路，此段情節是根據《三國志平話》而來。
