Xian (Clam, *Corbicula fluminea*): Primarily treats epidemic febrile diseases (Shi Qi), opens the appetite, counteracts the toxicity of Dan Shi medicines (mineral-based elixirs), treats Ding Chuang (furuncles/carbuncles), drains dampness, promotes lactation; boiling with wine lees is effective. Living in water, extracting juice to wash Ding Chuang is beneficial. ○ Aged shells: Treat yin sores, stop dysentery, taken with water. Found everywhere in mud and sand. Chen Cangqi stated that during wind and rain, they can fly using their shells as wings. [Growth] No specific season. [Harvest] No specific season. [Storage] Sun-dried.
[Medicinal Parts] Flesh and shell. [Texture] Similar to clam but smaller. [Color] Blue-black. [Odor] Fishy. [Combined Treatment] White clam shells, quantity unspecified, pounded and ground into an extremely fine powder, mixed with rice water to take one Qianbi (approx. 3-5g) per dose, three to four times daily, for treating sudden persistent cough. [Contraindications] Excessive consumption induces cough and cold qi, damaging the kidneys. [Detoxification] Flesh detoxifies alcohol.

(Pronunciation: Huo Xian Qie) Shells burned to ash and taken as powder primarily treat hemorrhoids (Recorded by Famous Physicians). [Name] Sheng Jin. [Origin] *Tujing Bencao* states this is also a type of bee/insect, resembling a clam, long and flat with hairs, living in rivers, seas, lakes, and marshes. People collect the shells for medicine; consuming the flesh has no medicinal efficacy. [Growth] No specific season. [Harvest] No specific season. Effective when taken as powder.

Bang (Freshwater Mussel) and Ha (Clam): Primarily brighten the eyes, stop Xiao Ke (wasting-thirst syndrome), relieve irritability, clear heat and detoxify, tonify deficiency and labor in women with lower bleeding, and treat hemorrhoids, metrorrhagia, and leukorrhea. ○ Powder from rotten shells, taken with water, treats regurgitation and phlegm-fluid retention. ○ Bang: Born during pregnancy, hence called Zhu Tai (Pearl Womb), also known as Shen, which is a large clam. Some organisms transform without being of the same species; for example, Ostrea (Oyster), Bang, and Ha have no distinct male/female polarity and require sparrows or pigeons for transformation; thus, old bangs can generate pearls, focusing exclusively on Yin energy. *Hai Wu Yi Ming Ji* states: Shen builds boundaries in the mud, and its vapor forms pavilions. *Yueling* states: Pheasants entering large waters transform into Shen, which refers to this phenomenon. [Growth] October. [Harvest] No specific season. [Medicinal Parts] Shell and flesh. [Texture] Similar to knife-shell (*Scalpellum*) but wider and larger. [Color] Blue-white. [Taste] Slightly sweet. [Nature] Cold. [Qi] Flavor is stronger than Qi, belonging to Yin. [Odor] Fishy. [Primary Action] Relieves thirst and irritability, detoxifies alcohol. [Treatment] *Bielu* states: Drains dampness, clears intense heat. [Combined Treatment] Insert Coptis chinensis powder into the mussel, extract the juice, and apply to red eyes (conjunctivitis); highly effective. [Contraindications] Excessive consumption triggers cold diseases. [Detoxification] Counteracts the toxicity of Dan Shi medicines.
