不灰木主治热痱疮。将枣叶与锻石一起煅烧制成粉末，敷于患处（此法由名医记录）。【名称】无灰木。【产地】《本草图经》记载：产于上党地区，如今在泽州、潞州的山中都有分布，大概属于石类。其颜色青白，像腐烂的木头，燃烧时不会着火，因此得名。有人说它是滑石的根，出产滑石的地方都有，也叫无灰木。如今处州山中出产一种松石，形状像松树干但实质是石头，有人说是松树久后化为石头，人们多用来装饰山亭或雕琢成枕头，虽然不入药，但与不灰木相似，所以附记于此。【采集时间】随时可采。【质地】类似烂木。【颜色】青白色。【味道】淡。【药性】大寒。【气味】气与味都淡薄，属阴。【气味特征】有腐朽味。【功效】敷治热疮。【炮制方法】陈藏器说：细研入药用，必须烧成灰，即砍破后用牛乳煮过，再用黄牛粪烧之便成灰。
无毒。生于土中。
蓬砂主治消痰、止咳、破除症结、治疗喉痹，以及用于焊接金银（此法由名医记录）。【名称】鹏砂。【产地】《本草图经》记载：产于南海，其状非常光亮晶莹，也有极大的块状物，如今医家治疗咽喉疾病是最为切要的药材。（《本草衍义》说）来自南番的蓬砂颜色深褐，味道温和，疗效迅速；来自西戎的蓬砂颜色白，味道焦苦，药效缓慢，也不堪用作焊接材料。【采集时间】随时可采。【贮藏】用瓷器盛放贮存。【选用标准】以光亮晶莹、颜色深褐者为佳。【颜色】白或褐色。【味道】苦、辛。【药性】温，具泄降作用。【气味】气浓味薄，属阳中之阴。【气味特征】腥味。【功效】治疗喉闭。【炮制方法】研细使用。【治疗方法】（《本草衍义》说）含化蓬砂咽下津液，可治疗喉中肿痛、膈上痰热，初觉不适便用，即使不能形成严重的喉痹，也能减缓病情取得疗效。

Bu Hui Mu (Not-burning Wood) is indicated for treating heat-related miliaria and sores. Jujube leaves and calcined stone are calcined together to make a powder, which is applied to the body (Recorded by Famous Physicians). [Name] Wu Hui Mu (No-ash Wood). [Origin] *Bencao Tujing* states: It originates from Shangdang; nowadays it is found in the mountains of Zezhou and Luzhou. It is likely a type of stone. Its color is greenish-white like rotten wood; it does not burn when ignited, hence its name. Some say it is the root of Huashi (Talcum), found wherever Talcum is produced, also called Wu Hui Mu. Nowadays, in the mountains of Chuzhou, a type of Songshi (Pine Stone) is produced, resembling pine trunks but solid as stone. Some claim it is pine trees transformed into stone over time. People often use it to decorate mountain pavilions or carve them into pillows. Although not used in medicine, it is similar to Bu Hui Mu, so it is appended here. [Harvesting] Anytime. [Texture] Similar to rotten wood. [Color] Greenish-white. [Flavor] Bland. [Nature] Greatly Cold. [Qi and Flavor] Both Qi and flavor are thin/light, Yin in nature. [Odor] Rotten. [Indication] Apply to treat hot sores. [Preparation] Chen Zangqi says: Grind finely for medicinal use; it must be burned to ash. This involves chopping it up, boiling it in ox milk, and then burning it with yellow ox manure until it becomes ash.
Non-toxic. Grows in earth.
Peng Sha (Borax) is indicated for resolving phlegm, stopping cough, breaking up accumulations, treating Hou Bi (sore throat/laryngeal obstruction), and for soldering gold and silver (Recorded by Famous Physicians). [Name] Peng Sha. [Origin] *Bencao Tujing* states: It originates from the South Sea. Its appearance is very lustrous and crystalline, sometimes in large blocks. Nowadays, it is a crucial herb for physicians treating throat diseases. (*Bencao Yan Yi* states): Borax from Nanfan has a dark brown color, a mild taste, and rapid efficacy. Borax from Xirong is white in color, has a scorched/bitter taste, and slow efficacy; it is unsuitable for soldering. [Harvesting] Anytime. [Storage] Store in porcelain vessels. [Selection Criteria] Those that are lustrous, crystalline, and dark brown are best. [Color] White or brown. [Flavor] Bitter, Pungent. [Nature] Warm, with draining/descending properties. [Qi and Flavor] Strong Qi, thin flavor, Yang within Yin. [Odor] Fishy. [Indication] Treat Hou Bi (throat closure). [Preparation] Grind finely for use. [Treatment Method] (*Bencao Yan Yi* states): Dissolve in the mouth and swallow the saliva to treat swelling and pain in the throat and phlegm-heat above the diaphragm. Use at the first sign of discomfort; even if severe Hou Bi does not fully develop, it can alleviate the condition and achieve efficacy.
Non-toxic.
Qian Shuang (Lead Frost) is indicated for resolving phlegm, arresting palpitations due to fright, detoxifying alcohol, treating chest and epigastric oppression, wind-stroke with phlegm-solidity, and quenching thirst (Recorded by Famous Physicians). [Origin] *Bencao Tujing* states: Take 15 liang of lead from Pingze in Shu Commandery and 1 liang of mercury from Pingtu in Fuling, smelt them together into sheets, place them in a vinegar jar, seal tightly, and after a long period, frost forms on them, called Qian Bai Shuang (White Lead Frost). Nowadays, physicians use it frequently. (*Bencao Yan Yi* states): Applying it to papaya removes the sour taste, illustrating the principle of Metal overcoming Wood. [Medicinal Part] Frost. [Color] White. [Nature] Cold. [Qi and Flavor] Thin Qi, Yang within Yin. [Odor] Rotten. [Indication] Arrest palpitations, dispel wind-phlegm. [Preparation] Grind finely for use.

(*Mingyi Bielu* states): Grind into powder, mix with one qian using fresh well water, and take orally to stop epistaxis. [Combined Treatment]: Grind finely, take one qian, mix with one he of warm fresh Rehmanniae Radix juice, and administer. This treats menstrual stagnation in unmarried women accompanied by vexation and mental confusion. Alternatively, decocting Rehmanniae Radix in water and mixing the powder into the decoction is also effective. [Detoxification]: Detoxifies alcohol.
