【贝子】
味道咸，性平，有毒。主治眼生翳膜、鬼疰（一种传染性痨病）、蛊毒、腹痛便血、五种淋证（小便不利），通利水道。能消除寒热温疰，解散肌表之邪，消散结聚之热。烧制成炭使用效果更佳。又名贝齿。产于东海的池泽之中。
这是现在常见的小小贝子，人们用来装饰军容服饰的，出产于南海。将其烧成细末，吹入眼中，治疗翳膜效果良好。另外，真正的马珂（珍珠）捣碎成末，也能治疗盲翳。
【水珠/珍珠类】
大寒。主治眼睛红肿热痛，止渴。
生长在水田中及湖泊沟渠岸边，形状圆大如梨、橘子的，人们也煮食它。煮出的汁液，也能治疗热病，解酒，止渴。
患有眼痛时，取珍珠并黄连放入其中，过很久汁液渗出，取此汁滴入眼中，多能痊愈。
〔谨案〕《别录》记载：贝壳，治疗尸疰（一种慢性消耗性传染病）。用水浸泡后饮用汁液，可止泻。
【蜗牛】
味道咸，性寒。主治贼风引起的口眼歪斜、跌打损伤、大肠脱肛、筋脉拘急以及惊痫。
蜗牛，字音读作“力戈”反切，但俗称为瓜牛。生长在山区及人家附近，头部形状像蛞蝓，只是背负着壳罢了。前面已经说过。海边还有一种，正相似，用火烤壳它就爬出来，吃它能美容养颜，名为寄居蟹。医家既然不再使用，人们也不去采集，不清楚究竟哪一种才是正确的。
【海蛤】
味道咸，性平，无毒。主治心腹满痛、气急、止痢、下淋。生于南海。
海蛤大小如小拳头，青黄色，长四、五寸，取其厣（盖）烧成灰使用。南方人也煮其肉食用，但也无什么益处。（新附）
【鲍鱼壳】
味道咸，性平，无毒。主治眼中翳膜、止血、生肌。属于贝类，大小如鳆鱼（鲍鱼），皮黄黑而骨白，用作马饰。
生……（原文此处似有缺漏或排版错误，仅保留现有内容）
【豆蔻】
味道辛，性温，无毒。主治温中、心腹痛、呕吐、去除口臭。生于南海。
味道辛辣烈者为好，非常香，可以经常含服。它与五味子等混合在饭食中都很适宜：良姜最温中，下气；益智仁，性热；枸橼，性偏冷而已。
〔谨案〕豆蔻，苗叶像山姜，花黄白色，苗根及果实也像杜若。枸橼，性冷，陶弘景说它是温性的，是错误的。
[Bei Zi (Conch Shell)]
Taste: Salty. Nature: Neutral. Toxicity: Toxic. Indications: Epiblepharon (cataract-like opacity on the eye), Gui Zhu (ghostly fixation, a type of contagious tuberculosis), Gu Du (gu poison), abdominal pain with bloody stool, Wu Long (five types of strangury), promotes urination. Eliminates cold-heat Wen Zhu (warm malarial fever), releases the muscle layer, dissipates nodular heat. Calcining for use is superior. Also known as Bei Chi (conch teeth). Grows in ponds and marshes of the East Sea.
This refers to the small conchs currently used by people to decorate military uniforms and ornaments, which originate from the South Sea. Burned into fine powder and blown into the eyes, it effectively treats opacities. Additionally, true Ma Ke (Pearl) crushed into powder also treats blindness and opacities.
[Shui Zhu / Pearl Category]
Nature: Great Cold. Indications: Red, hot, and painful eyes; quenches thirst.
Grows in rice paddies and along the banks of lakes and ditches. Those that are round and large like pears or oranges are also boiled and eaten by people. The boiled juice also treats heat conditions, resolves alcohol intoxication, and quenches thirst.
For eye pain, take Zhen Zhu (Pearl) and Huang Lian (Coptis Rhizome), place them together, wait until juice exudes after a long time, and apply this juice to the eyes; recovery is common.
[Note] "Bie Lu" states: The shell treats Shi Zhu (corpse fixation, a chronic wasting disease). Soaked in water and the juice drunk, it stops diarrhea.
[Wo Niu (Snail)]
Taste: Salty. Nature: Cold. Indications: Zei Feng (thief wind, causing facial paralysis/drooping), Die Da (traumatic injury), Da Chang Xia Tuo Gang (prolapse of the rectum), Jin Ji (tendon spasm), and Jing Xian (convulsions due to fright).
Wo Niu, pronounced via the fanqie method of 'Li Ge', but commonly called Gua Niu. It grows in mountains and near dwellings. Its head resembles Kuo Yu (slug), but it carries a shell. This was mentioned earlier. There is another variety by the sea that looks identical; when its shell is roasted over fire, it crawls out. Eating it benefits complexion, named Ji Ju (Hermit Crab). Since medical practitioners no longer use it, people do not collect it, and it is unclear which one is the correct species.
[Hai Ge (Sea Clam)]
Taste: Salty. Nature: Neutral. Toxicity: Non-toxic. Indications: Abdominal fullness and pain, shortness of breath, stops dysentery, treats strangury. Grows in the South Sea.
Hai Ge is as large as a small fist, greenish-yellow, four to five inches long. Take its Yan (operculum), calcine to ash, and use. People in the south also boil its meat to eat, but it offers no significant benefit. (Newly added)
[Bao Yu Ke (Abalone Shell)]
Taste: Salty. Nature: Neutral. Toxicity: Non-toxic. Indications: Eye opacities, stops bleeding, generates flesh. It belongs to the bivalve class, as large as Bao Yu (Abalone), with yellow-black skin and white bone, used as horse ornamentation.
Grows... [Text incomplete]
[Dou Kou (Cardamom)]
Taste: Pungent. Nature: Warm. Toxicity: Non-toxic. Indications: Warms the middle jiao, treats epigastric/abdominal pain, vomiting, removes bad breath odor. Grows in the South Sea.
Those with a pungent and sharp taste are preferred; they are very fragrant and can be held in the mouth constantly. Mixed with other ingredients in food, they are all suitable: Lian Jiang (Galangal) most warms the middle and directs qi downward; Yi Zhi Ren (Alpinia Oxyphylla Fruit) is hot; Gou Yuan (Citron) is slightly cold.
[Note] Dou Kou seedlings resemble Shan Jiang (Mountain Ginger), flowers are yellow-white, and roots/fruits resemble Ruo (Costus Root). Gou Yuan has a cold nature; Tao Hongjing stated it was warm, which is an error.
