温可行瘀。破积消痈涂舌肿。辛能散血。驱邪辟蛊治金疮。（釜脐墨即锅底墨灰。

辛苦微寒有小毒。辟恶行瘀。轻浮止血掺诸疮。安胎治膈。（梁上尘即梁上倒挂尘

治疗阳热亢盛之病证。涂抹于汤火烫伤及疮疡之上，属外用所需之物。味甘性寒，无毒。（井底泥禀受至阴之性，用以治疗各种阳热病证，仅有外治之法，而无内服之方。）
温性能行血化瘀，破除积滞、消除痈肿，涂抹可治舌部肿胀。辛味能散血，驱除邪气、辟除蛊毒，治疗金刃创伤。（釜脐墨即锅底中心的墨灰，其辛温散血的药性与百草霜相同，但质地轻重略有差异。百草霜具有轻扬解散的功效，釜脐墨具备辟恶消瘀的力量，关键在于使用者是否用得恰当。）
味辛苦，性微寒，有小毒。能辟除邪恶、行血化瘀，因其质轻浮而能止血，掺敷于各种疮口；安胎，治疗膈间病症。（梁上尘即房梁上倒挂的灰尘，古方中虽有用此药的记载，但其中并无深意，且不免含有虫蛇之毒。况且对症的药物很多，不必拘泥于这些偏僻之物。）
功效在于消除痰垢，其作用为腐蚀腐肉、损伤肌肉。味苦、辛、咸，性微温，有毒。（石碱采集蒿、蓼等植物，挖窖浸水，再捞起晒干，烧成灰，仍用原水淋取汁液，每百斤加入粉面二三斤，久置则凝结沉淀如石头一般。然而其咸苦恶劣之性，只可外用，不宜内服。）
（李时珍说：禽类是虫类中的一类。羽毛顺应四时变化，颜色符合五方方位。山禽栖息于岩石之间，原野之鸟立足大地。它们交配时，有的用尾巴触碰，有的用眼睛凝视。它们生育时，有的由翅膀包裹孵化，有的由气息变化而生。因此，五鸠九扈被用来命名官职，雄雉与鸱被诗人借以观察感怀。圣人对于禽类的态度，难道只是随意吗？）
乌骨鸡
补充肝家血液之亏损，调理产后疾病、治疗虚劳。味甘性平，无毒。治疗肺肾虚弱羸瘦之疾。白毛黑骨者，寓意金水相生。鸡属巽木，五行属风，风能动风而诱发毒邪。鸡内金能化食，可消食以宽畅中焦。鸡壳研末调搽，磨碎敷于疮口，下疳疮均可痊愈。煎煮鸡屎白并配合酒服用，可通肠治疗鼓胀。性味咸寒。鸡冠之气禀受纯阳，治疗中恶且去除客忤邪气。鸡蛋性平甘润，安定五脏，尤其滋养心神。（乌骨鸡，鸡的种类甚多，大体以白毛黑骨、皮肉皆黑者为良。鸡为巽木，性味甘平，属于血肉有情之品，肝虚者适宜食用。因其外白内黑，得金水相生之意，故肝、肺、肾三脏血液不足者最为适宜。然而鸡又能动风发毒，一切外证、一切风病患者忌食。○鸡内金，即鸡硬胃内的黄皮。凡鸡所食之物，皆在此处消化，炙黑后使用，能消磨水谷之物，且能治疗淋浊，止遗尿，因为鸡无小便。○鸡壳研末，治疗目翳、下疳及各种疮疡，都是取其脱退之意。○鸡屎白，雄鸡屎才有白色，咸苦性寒，下行善降，入肝脾二经及大小肠，能消导一切水谷湿热积滞。凡是鼓胀、蛊胀属实热证的，皆可用之。《金匮要略》治疗转筋入腹时用此药，是因为肝邪乘脾，鸡屎能利脾。○鸡冠血以赤色雄鸡者为良，味咸平，得至高纯阳之气，故能辟除阴邪，治疗中恶、五绝等证。至于涂抹治疗口眼歪斜，是因为它能入血透络，鸡为巽畜，可以治风。○鸡蛋生吃性凉，熟吃性温，内黄外白，入心肺二经，宁神定魄。和合熟食，也能补益脾胃。生冲服之，可以养心营，可以退虚热，全在于使用者的灵活运用。）
Treats conditions of hyperactive Yang and excessive heat. Applied topically to burns and sores; it is required for external treatment. Sweet in flavor, cold in nature, non-toxic. (Well-bottom mud possesses the nature of extreme Yin, used to treat various Yang-heat conditions. It has only external application methods and no internal prescription.)
Warm nature promotes blood circulation and resolves stasis, breaks down accumulations, eliminates carbuncles, and topical application treats tongue swelling. Pungent flavor disperses blood, drives out pathogens, wards off gu poison, and treats metal wounds. (Fuqi Mo, i.e., the soot from the center of the pot bottom, shares the pungent-warm blood-dispersing property with Baicaoshuang [Soot from Hundred Herbs], though its texture differs slightly in weight. Baicaoshuang has the efficacy of light dispersion and resolution, while Fuqi Mo possesses the power to ward off evil and resolve stasis; the key lies in the practitioner's appropriate use.)
Bitter and pungent, slightly cold, slightly toxic. Wards off evil, promotes blood circulation and resolves stasis; due to its light and floating nature, it stops bleeding when sprinkled on various sores; calms the fetus, treats diaphragm disorders. (Liangshangchen [Dust from Beams] refers to dust hanging upside down from roof beams. Although ancient prescriptions included its use, there was little profound meaning behind it, and it inevitably contained toxins from insects and snakes. Moreover, since there are many drugs suitable for specific symptoms, one need not insist on such obscure substances.)
Its efficacy is to eliminate phlegm and dirt; its action involves corroding flesh and damaging muscle. Bitter, pungent, and salty in flavor; slightly warm and toxic in nature. (Shijian [Stone Alkali] is made by collecting plants like Artemisia and Polygonum, soaking them in water in a pit, retrieving them, drying them, burning them to ash, and then leaching the ash with the original water. For every 100 jin, 2-3 jin of flour is added; over time, it solidifies like stone. However, its harsh, bitter, and salty nature makes it suitable only for external use, not internal consumption.)
(Li Shizhen said: Birds are a category of insects. Their feathers harmonize with the four seasons, and their colors correspond to the five directions. Mountain birds roost on rocks, while field birds dwell on the ground. In mating, some touch tails, others gaze with eyes. In reproduction, some are enclosed by wings, others arise from qi transformation. Thus, the Five Jiu and Nine Hu were used to name official positions, and male pheasants and owls were borrowed by poets for observation and reflection. Did the Sages regard birds merely casually?)
Wuguji (Black-bone Chicken)
Supplements deficiency of blood in the Liver system, regulates postpartum conditions, treats consumptive diseases. Sweet in flavor, neutral in nature, non-toxic. Treats debility diseases of Lung and Kidney deficiency. White feathers and black bones symbolize Metal generating Water. The chicken belongs to Xun Wood, associated with Wind, which can stir Wind and provoke toxicity. Ji Neijin (Chicken Gizzard Membrane) transforms food, aiding digestion and relaxing the Middle Jiao. Ji Qiao (Eggshell) mixed for topical application; powdered and applied to sores, curing subcutaneous ulcers. Decoction of Jishi Bai (White part of Chicken Droppings) taken with wine unblocks intestines and treats distension. Salty and cold in nature. Jiguan (Chicken Comb) possesses pure Yang Qi, treating sudden severe illness and expelling alien influences. Jizi (Chicken Egg) is neutral, sweet, and moistening, calming the Five Zang organs and particularly nourishing the Heart Spirit. (There are many varieties of chickens, but those with white feathers and black bones, where skin and meat are entirely black, are considered superior. The chicken corresponds to Xun Wood, with a sweet and neutral nature; it is a substance of flesh and blood with emotional vitality, suitable for Liver deficiency. Its outer white and inner black color reflects the principle of Metal generating Water, making it most suitable for deficiencies of blood in the Liver, Lung, and Kidney. However, it can also stir Wind and provoke toxicity; thus, it is contraindicated for all external conditions and wind-related diseases. ○ Ji Nejin is the yellow membrane inside the chicken's hard gizzard. All food consumed by the chicken is digested here. When roasted until black, it aids in digesting grains and foods, and can also treat strangury and stop enuresis, as chickens do not urinate. ○ Powdered eggshell treats pterygium, subcutaneous ulcers, and various sores, utilizing the concept of shedding or molting. ○ Jishi Bai (white part of droppings) exists only in male chickens; it is salty, bitter, and cold, descending effectively, entering the Liver, Spleen, Large Intestine, and Small Intestine meridians. It eliminates damp-heat and stagnation of food and fluids. It is applicable for distension caused by excess-heat patterns. In *Jin Gui Yao Lue*, it is used for cramps extending into the abdomen because Liver pathogen invades the Spleen, and Jishi Bai benefits the Spleen. ○ Jiguan Xue (Chicken Comb Blood) is best from red male chickens; salty and neutral, possessing supreme pure Yang Qi, thus warding off Yin pathogens and treating sudden severe illness or five types of death-like states. For treating facial paralysis, it enters the blood and penetrates collaterals; as a Xun animal, it treats Wind. ○ Raw eggs are cool, cooked eggs are warm; inner yolk is yellow, outer white; enter Heart and Lung meridians, calming spirit and stabilizing soul. Cooked and combined with other foods, it tonifies Spleen and Stomach. Taken raw, it nourishes Heart Ying (Nutritive Qi) and clears deficient heat; its effect depends on the skillful application by the practitioner.)
