【胡芦巴】
味苦，性大温，无毒。
【发明】胡芦巴是海外胡萝卜子的音近讹传。它是治疗右肾命门（位于两肾之间，为元气之根）的药物。对于元阳不足、冷气潜伏导致阳气不能回归本源的情况，适宜使用此药；若出现小肠奔豚（气从少腹上冲心胸）、疝气偏坠以及小腹有形如卵块、上下走窜疼痛难以忍受的症状，可使用胡芦巴丸。若肾气不归元，表现为上热下寒、四肢厥冷呕吐者，可使用黑锡丹。这些方剂都常与金铃子（川楝子）配合使用，一寒一热，其引导火气回归本源的功效可知。
【牛蒡子】
又名鼠粘子、牛蒡子、大力子，这些都是它的别名。
味辛，性平，无毒。
【发明】鼠粘子是入肺经的药物。用于治疗风湿引起的瘾疹（皮肤红肿瘙痒的皮疹）、咽喉风热，能消散各种肿疮疡的毒邪，是治疗痘疹的仙药。如果痘疹不起发，将此药研成粉末，用刺破雄鸡冠的血和酒酿调匀，以胡荽汤送服，效果神奇。若疮疡毒盛，生研后外用即可促使疮头排出；酒炒后药性上行，能通达十二经脉，去除皮肤风邪，消除疹毒。但是，气虚面色苍白、大便通畅者不宜使用。
【苍耳】
古名苍耳。
果实味甘性温，叶味苦辛，有小毒。需酒浸后炒制使用，忌食猪肉。
【发明】苍耳用于治疗头风脑痛、风湿周痹（全身关节肌肉疼痛）、四肢拘挛、恶肉死肌（坏死的肌肉组织）、皮肤瘙痒、脚膝寒痛，长期服用也能益气。其叶子长期服用对去除风湿有效。服用苍耳的人最忌讳猪肉及风邪，一旦触犯，全身会发出赤丹（红色斑疹）。妇女因血风攻脑导致头晕闷绝、突然倒下不知人事的情况，可用苍耳草嫩心阴干研末，酒送服，效果很好。这种药善于通连头顶至脑部，能行走于督脉。
【天名精】
《神农本草经》中名为蛤蟆蓝，一名地菘，种子名为鹤虱。
味甘，性寒，无毒。
《神农本草经》主治瘀血、血瘕欲死（腹部结块疼痛剧烈）、下血止血、利小便。
【发明】天名精功效专于散血，有破除陈旧瘀血、生成新血的作用，所以《神农本草经》说它能“下血止血”（指通过祛除瘀血来达到止血目的），又能涌吐风痰，杀虫解毒。研磨汁液服用，能止住痰疟，含漱可止牙痛，捣碎外敷可治蛇伤，煎服可清除淫秽邪毒，从小便排出。凡是乳蛾（扁桃体炎）喉咙肿痛，以及小儿急慢惊风、牙关紧闭、不省人事的情况，捣烂取汁混合酒灌服。若咽喉肿塞、痰涎壅滞，捣汁用鹅毛棒扫入咽喉，去痰立效。也可用于治疗猪瘟。
[Huluba]
Bitter, greatly warm, non-toxic.
[Invention] Huluba is a phonetic error for the seeds of carrots from overseas. It is a medicine for the Gate of Life (Mingmen) of the right kidney. It is suitable for cases of insufficient primal yang and latent cold qi that prevents the return of yang to its origin. For symptoms such as Xiao Chang Ben Tun (gas rushing from the lower abdomen to the chest), hernia with unilateral swelling, and palpable masses in the lower abdomen resembling eggs that move up and down with unbearable pain, Huluba Wan should be used. For cases where kidney qi does not return to its origin, presenting with heat above and cold below, cold limbs, and vomiting, Hei Xi Dan should be used. Both are often used together with Jin Ling Zi (Szechwan Chinaberry Fruit), one cold and one hot, demonstrating their efficacy in guiding fire back to its source.
[Niubangzi]
Also known as Shu Niu Zi, Niubangzi, and Da Li Zi; these are all alternative names.
Pungent, neutral, non-toxic.
[Invention] Shu Niu Zi is a medicine entering the Lung Meridian. It treats wind-dampness-induced urticaria, wind-heat in the throat, and disperses toxicity from various swellings and sores; it is a miraculous drug for treating smallpox/rashes. If rashes fail to erupt, this herb is ground into powder, mixed with blood from a rooster's comb and fermented rice wine, and taken with Hu Sui Tang (Coriander Decoction) for miraculous effects. For severe toxin accumulation in sores, raw ground application promotes pus discharge; wine-fried, it moves upward, unblocks the twelve meridians, expels wind from the skin, and eliminates rash toxins. However, it is contraindicated for those with qi deficiency, pale complexion, and loose stools.
[Canger]
Ancient name: Canger.
Fruit: Sweet, warm; Leaves: Pungent, bitter, slightly toxic. Use after wine soaking and stir-frying. Avoid pork.
[Invention] Canger treats head wind-brain pain, wind-dampness bi syndrome affecting the whole body, limb spasms, necrotic flesh and dead muscle, skin itching, cold pain in feet and knees, and long-term use can also tonify qi. Long-term consumption of its leaves is effective for dispelling wind-dampness. Patients taking Canger must strictly avoid pork and exposure to wind; violation causes widespread red erysipelas. For women suffering from blood-wind attacking the brain, causing dizziness, suffocation, sudden collapse, and unconsciousness, dried young hearts of Canger grass ground into powder and taken with wine are very effective. This substance excels at connecting the vertex to the brain and traversing the Du Meridian.
[Tianmingjing]
Named Hamalán in the *Shennong Ben Cao Jing*, also known as Disong; its seed is named Heshi.
Sweet, cold, non-toxic.
The *Shennong Ben Cao Jing* states it treats blood stasis, painful abdominal masses threatening life, hematochezia/hematuria (stopping bleeding by promoting discharge), and promotes urination.
[Invention] Tianmingjing’s function specializes in dissipating blood, possessing the ability to break old stasis and generate new blood. Thus, the *Shennong Ben Cao Jing* mentions "promoting discharge to stop bleeding" (referring to stopping bleeding by removing stasis). It can also induce vomiting to expel wind-phlegm, kill parasites, and detoxify. Taken as juice, it stops phlegmatic malaria; gargling stops toothache; applied externally as a paste, it treats snakebites; decocted and drunk, it clears turbid evil toxins, excreted via urine. For tonsillitis/throat swelling and pain, as well as pediatric acute or chronic convulsions with locked jaws and unconsciousness, crushed juice mixed with wine should be forced down the throat. For swollen and blocked throat with obstructive phlegm-saliva, juice applied with a goose feather brush removes phlegm with immediate effect. It is also used to treat swine plague.
