鸡白蠹肥脂(以上朱字部分为《神农本草经》原文;以下黑字部分为后世名医所录):主治久年旧伤引发的疮疡。
【产地】〔《图经》记载〕《本经》说鸡白蠹肥脂出产于朝鲜平泽。陶隐居说:“朝鲜不应总是鸡的产地,且‘白蠹’不知是何物,恐怕是另一种东西。”开宝注将其称为“鸡”,入药使用,大概是认为产自朝鲜的较好。如今到处人家都饲养很多,没听说都是从朝鲜运来的。〔《衍义》记载〕丹雄鸡就是现在所说的赤鸡,这是从毛色而言的。巽卦象征鸡和风,鸡在五更时分鸣叫,是因为太阳将至,巽位之气感动而鸣叫。身体带有风邪的人,所以不可食用。经注都没有说鸡会引发风疾,如今身体有风疾的人吃了它没有不发作的,作为巽卦的象征可以验证了。吃鸡肉的人应当审慎对待。○ 谨按:丹雄鸡出自《神农本草经》,乌雄鸡、白雄鸡、黄雌鸡、黑雌鸡都是后世名医附加的。大概鸡的颜色种类虽多,但身体所具备的功能没有不同,只有雌雄及卵有所区别。所以《蜀本》说:鸡子黄及白用黄雌鸡的胆、心、肝、肠、脂肪及粪便;乌雄鸡用其头;乌雌鸡用其翮羽,似乎更为详细。当时将丹雄鸡的条文附带在诸鸡条目之下,大概是各从其类。掌氏沿袭至此,使用者不免对此产生疑惑。如今将神农的本草朱书文字搜集在丹雄鸡之下,名医关于诸鸡的主治功用,随类别以墨书列于其后。其卵仍单独立一条。像这样,古今的文字就不会混乱,而且取用有所归属。
【时令】〔生长〕无固定时节。〔采集〕无固定时节。
【用法】肉、脂肪、肠、头(东门上者为佳)、屎白、翮羽、里黄皮。
【性状】颜色:赤色。味道:甘味。性质:微温,性缓。气味:气浓于味,属阳中之阴。臭味:腥味。
【治疗功效】〔疗治〕〔《素问》云〕鸡矢醴治疗心腹胀满,早上吃饭晚上就不能吃,这种病名叫鼓胀。〔《图经》云〕鸡屎白研成粉末,每次一方寸匕,用水六合调和温服,治疗转筋入腹。〔《日华子》云〕鸡冠血治疗白癜风。○ 鸡粪治疗白虎风,并外敷治疗风痛。○ 鸡肝加入补肾方中。○ 鸡里黄皮止泄精,以及尿血、崩中带下、肠风泻痢。〔孟诜曰〕患有白虎痛风的人,可以将饭铺在患处,让鸡去吃,效果良好。又取热鸡粪封贴患处。〔《别录》云〕鸡冠血主治百虫入耳不出,滴入耳中虫子即出,也可外敷蜈蚣、蜘蛛毒。又治疗小儿突然受惊,好像有疼痛处但不知道病情状况,取少许涂在患儿口上可痊愈。又外敷马咬伤,若有毒素疼痛,效果显著。如果是公马咬伤用母马的血,母马咬伤用公马的血,都主治自缢身亡,能安定心神,慢慢解开绳索解救。千万不要割断绳子,如果心脏下方还有余温,取血滴入口中立即复活。男子用雌马血,女子用雄马血。又抢救猝死,无论是先患病还是平时睡觉突然断气,都是中了恶气,取血涂在其面部,干了之后再涂,并用灰围绕死人画一周。又治疗突然得的浸淫疮,流汁多,起于心部,如果不早治疗,蔓延至周身则会杀人,外敷可愈。○ 鸡屎白外敷治疗蝎子咬伤,效果良好。又烧成灰,用水调服一方寸匕,治疗误食药中毒导致发狂、胸闷、想吐又吐不出、想拉又拉不出的症状。又治疗妒乳(乳汁淤积)以及乳头破裂和痈肿。

Non-toxic: Head, fat, intestine, white chicken manure (Ji Shi Bai), wing feathers (He Yu), and egg.
Red Rooster (Dan Xiong Ji) (from *Shennong Bencao Jing*): Mainly treats women's metrorrhagia and leukorrhea (Beng Zhong Lou Xia, Chi Bai Wo), tonifies deficiency, warms the middle jiao (Zhong Jiao), stops bleeding, calms the spirit (Tong Shen), detoxifies, and wards off inauspicious influences. ○ The head mainly treats ghostly pathogenic factors (Sha Gui).
○
Fat (Zhi) mainly treats deafness.
○
Intestine mainly treats enuresis (Yi Niao).
○
Inner yellow skin (Li Huang Pi) mainly treats diarrhea and dysentery.
○
White chicken manure (Ji Shi Bai) mainly treats diabetes mellitus (Xiao Ke) and chills and fever caused by Shanghan (Cold Damage).
○
Wing feathers (He Yu) mainly treat lower body bleeding and amenorrhea (Bi).
○
White insectoid fat of chicken (Ji Bai Du Fei Zhi) (The above red text is from *Shennong Bencao Jing*; the following black text is recorded by later famous physicians): Mainly treats chronic wounds resulting from old injuries.
[Origin] [Recorded in *Tu Jing*]: *Bencao Jing* states that white insectoid fat of chicken originates from Pyeongsan, Joseon (Korea). Tao Hongjing said: "Joseon should not always be the origin of chickens, and 'white insectoid' is unknown; it is likely another substance." The Kaibao annotation calls it "chicken" for medicinal use, presumably considering those from Joseon to be superior. Nowadays, chickens are raised everywhere, and it is not heard that they all come from Joseon. [Recorded in *Yan Yi*]: Red rooster refers to what is now called red chicken, described by feather color. The Xun trigram symbolizes chicken and wind. Chickens crow at the fifth watch because the sun is approaching, and the qi of the Xun position moves them to crow. People whose bodies harbor wind pathogens should not consume it. Neither the classics nor annotations mention that chicken causes wind disease; however, people with existing wind conditions invariably flare up after eating it, verifying its association with the Xun trigram. Those who eat chicken should exercise caution. ○ Note: Red rooster comes from *Shennong Bencao Jing*, while black rooster, white rooster, yellow hen, and black hen were added by later famous physicians. Although chicken colors vary, their bodily functions are largely similar, differing only in sex and eggs. Thus, the *Shu Ben* states: For egg yolk and albumen, use the gallbladder, heart, liver, intestine, fat, and feces of a yellow hen; for black rooster, use the head; for black hen, use the wing feathers. This seems more detailed. Originally, the text on red rooster was appended under various chicken entries based on categories. Zhang Shi inherited this, causing confusion among users. Now, the red-texted Shennong material is collected under Red Rooster, and the therapeutic functions of other chickens by category are listed in black text below. Eggs remain as a separate entry. In this way, ancient and modern texts will not be confused, and usage will have clear attribution.
[Seasonality] [Growth]: No fixed season. [Harvest]: No fixed season.
[Usage]: Meat, fat, intestine, head (best from the east gate), white chicken manure, wing feathers, inner yellow skin.
[Properties] Color: Red. Taste: Sweet. Nature: Slightly warm, mild action. Qi/Flavor: Qi is stronger than flavor; belongs to Yin within Yang. Odor: Fishy.
[Therapeutic Actions] [Treatment] [Su Wen states]: Ji Shi Li (Chicken Manure Wine) treats abdominal fullness where one cannot eat dinner if lunch was eaten, known as Gu Zhang (Drum Distension). [Tu Jing states]: White chicken manure powder, one cun-bi (square-inch measure), mixed with six he of water and taken warm, treats muscle spasms moving into the abdomen. [Ri Hua Zi states]: Chicken crown blood treats vitiligo. ○ Chicken manure treats Bai Hu Feng (White Tiger Wind) and is applied externally for wind pain. ○ Chicken liver is included in kidney-tonifying formulas. ○ Inner yellow skin stops seminal emission, hematuria, metrorrhagia with leukorrhea, intestinal wind, and diarrhea/dysentery. [Meng Shen says]: For those suffering from Bai Hu gout, spreading rice on the affected area for chickens to eat is effective. Also, applying hot chicken manure topically is beneficial. [Bie Lu states]: Chicken crown blood treats insects entering the ear that cannot exit; dripping it into the ear expels them. It can also be applied externally for centipede and spider venom. It treats sudden fright in children, where they seem to have pain but do not know the condition; applying a small amount to the child's mouth cures it. It is also applied externally for horse bites; if toxic and painful, it is effective. Use female horse blood for male horse bites, and male horse blood for female horse bites. Both treat death by hanging, calming the spirit and allowing slow untying. Do not cut the rope immediately. If warmth remains below the heart, drip blood into the mouth for immediate revival. Use female blood for men, male blood for women. It also rescues sudden death, whether due to prior illness or sudden cessation during sleep, all caused by evil qi intrusion. Apply blood to the face, reapply when dry, and draw a circle of ash around the deceased. It also treats sudden impetigo with excessive exudate originating from the heart; if untreated early, it spreads to the whole body and kills, but external application cures it. ○ White chicken manure applied externally treats scorpion bites effectively. Burned to ash and taken with water (one cun-bi), it treats food/drug poisoning causing madness, chest oppression, nausea without vomiting, and constipation without defecation. It also treats engorged breasts (Du Ru), cracked nipples, and carbuncles/swellings.
[Combined Therapies] Burned white chicken manure taken with rice decoction treats infantile convulsive crying. ○ Dry white chicken manure powder taken with hot wine (one qian-bi) treats liver wind deficiency causing spasms moving into the abdomen. ○ A date-sized piece of white chicken manure taken with half a cup of wine treats death by hanging; pouring into mouth/nose restores life immediately. ○ One sheng of white chicken manure, fried until yellow and extremely hot, mixed with two sheng of wine, strained and drunk, treats wind-cold spasm with locked jaw and unconsciousness. ○ White chicken manure burned to ash, wrapped in silk, bitten against unbearable toothache, provides immediate relief. ○ One sheng of white chicken manure mixed with five sheng of soybeans, fried until color changes, poured with hot wine, simmered slightly to extract bean flavor, drunk according to tolerance, covered to induce sweating, avoiding wind, treats wind-stroke due to sores, causing opisthotonos, locked jaw, and limb rigidity. ○ Seven pieces of chicken manure boiled in two sheng of water to yield five he, used to cook rice porridge, treats retained dead fetus in the abdomen. ○ White chicken manure dried in the sun until half-dry, fried dry, powdered, and taken with fermented grain drink (one cun-bi) treats stone strangury (Shi Lin). ○ Chicken manure burned to ash, taken with wine on an empty stomach (one cun-bi) treats postpartum urinary incontinence.
[Contraindications] Eating chickens with five colors causes madness. ○ Eating chickens whose claws do not extend after death harms humans. Children under five years old who have not weaned should not be given chicken meat.
[Dietary Taboos] Consuming chicken and rabbit together causes diarrhea and dysentery. ○ Consuming chicken meat with fish juice causes Xin Jia (heart mass/tumor).
