宦游笔记∶自光溪入四明二十余里,有蜜岩,峭壁千寻,下临深溪, 洞无底,岩颠旧
有蜂
窠,聚蜂数百万,其蜜滴下,溪鱼食之,故鱼味甘绝,曰蜜姑鱼。其钓法倍多曲折,鱼性极
喜苔,须缒悬崖下,有水衣演漾深碧而细者,剜以为饵;鱼性暴,遇钓则跳岩,卒不可制。
而蜜岩下溪水清甚,用粗绠,则恐鱼之瞥见而惊游也;用细丝,则又恐不足以胜鱼跳岩之力
。钓者乃取丝长十余丈,盘于杆上,遥望见深波中鱼诩诩鼓鬣而至,则取丝徐徐放之,如小
儿之送纸鸢者,使得纵其所往。鱼入钩,果一跃数尺,翻波跋浪,横激溪面,其鳞光闪烁,
如千片碎金,杂珠颗中随风散洒,观者莫不目眩心动,已而徐徐力倦,乃可取之。
性温味甘,食之生胃津,益肺气,补血脉,增髓去热,除虚羸,壮筋骨,止嗽定喘,功

窝,蛤蚧也。
按∶此鱼最洁,惟食苔蜜,苔寒而蜜温,得水火既济之力,大能补土生金。燕窝性清肃

逢原说:挑破河豚的眼睛,拌入轻粉,埋在地中化成水,用来拔除妇女脚上的鸡眼疮,可以连根去除。
这种鱼性有毒,可以用来绝灭壁虱。《行箧检秘》记载:将蟹壳、樟脑、冰片各五分,与棉籽混合,放在床下,燃烧烟雾来熏蒸它。
《三才藻异》记载:产于抚仙湖,形状像龟壳,青色,大如盘子,没有尾巴,有脚,腹部白色。
食用它可以辟除瘴气毒邪。
《宦游笔记》记载:从光溪进入四明山二十多里,有一处蜜岩,峭壁千寻,下面面临深溪,洞穴无底,岩顶旧时有蜂巢,聚集了数百万只蜜蜂,它们的蜜滴落下来,溪中的鱼吃了,所以鱼肉味道极其甘甜,称为蜜姑鱼。它的钓法有很多曲折之处,鱼性极喜欢苔藓,必须用绳子悬挂到悬崖下,那里有水衣荡漾,深碧色且细嫩,挖取它作为饵料;鱼性暴躁,遇到钓钩就跳岩,最终难以控制。而蜜岩下的溪水非常清澈,如果用粗绳,恐怕鱼瞥见后受惊游走;如果用细丝,又恐怕不足以承受鱼跳岩的力量。钓鱼的人于是取十余丈长的丝线,盘绕在杆上,远远望见深波中鱼儿欢快地鼓动鱼鳍而来,便慢慢放出丝线,就像小孩子放纸鸢一样,让鱼随其所欲地游动。鱼咬钩后,果然一跃数尺,翻腾波浪,横激溪面,鳞片光芒闪烁,如同千片碎金,混杂着珍珠颗粒随风散洒,观看的人无不目眩心动,过了一会儿鱼力竭疲倦,才可以将其取回。
这种鱼性温味甘,食用它能滋生胃津,补益肺气,补养血脉,增加骨髓,去除热邪,消除虚瘦,强壮筋骨,止咳定喘,功效同燕窝、蛤蚧一样。
按语:这种鱼最洁净,只吃苔藓和蜂蜜,苔藓性寒而蜂蜜性温,得到水火既济的力量,大能补土生金。燕窝性清肃而下行,蛤蚧性和中而温脏,此鱼则能兼有二者之功,真是劳嗽虚羸病人的食品上品良药。《柳崖外编》记载张方海是浙江人,少年时在四明山读书,曾经断粮几个月。山谷多竹,峭壁上有蜂蜜,蜂蜜流入江中化为鱼,名叫蜜鱼。张方海于是挖掘竹笋钓鱼来吃,自己说笋味淡而清,蜜鱼浓而美,有天台胡麻所不如的地方。此后便身体轻便,耐寒暑,不再思念烟火食物的味道。根据这些,那么它的作用确实不虚假。

Feng Yuan stated: Pick out the eyes of the pufferfish, mix with Qinfen (Calomel), bury in the ground to dissolve into water, and use it to extract chicken warts on women's feet, which can remove them by the root.
This fish is toxic and can be used to eliminate bed bugs. *Xingqie Jianmi* records: Mix Xieke (Crab Shell), Zhangnao (Borneol/Camphor), and Bingpian (Borneol) each at 5 fen, mix with cotton seeds, place under the bed, and fumigate with the smoke.
*Sancai Zao Yi* records: Produced in Fuxian Lake, shaped like a turtle shell, green in color, as large as a plate, without a tail, has feet, white belly.
Consuming it can ward off miasma toxins.
*Huanyou Biji* records: Entering Siming Mountain from Guangxi for over twenty li, there is a Miyan (Honey Cliff), a sheer cliff thousands of xun high, overlooking a deep stream below, with bottomless caves. At the top of the cliff, old bee nests existed, gathering millions of bees; their honey dripped down, and the fish in the stream ate it, thus the fish meat tasted extremely sweet, called Miguyu (Honey Aunt Fish). Its fishing method involves much complexity; the fish nature strongly likes moss. One must lower bait suspended by rope down the cliff, where aquatic moss sways in deep emerald green and is tender; scoop it as bait. The fish nature is violent; upon encountering the hook, it jumps on rocks, making it difficult to control. However, the stream water under Miyan is very clear. If using a thick rope, one fears the fish will see it and swim away startled; if using thin silk, one fears it may not withstand the force of the fish jumping on rocks. The angler therefore takes a silk line more than ten zhang long, coils it on a pole, and from afar sees the fish swimming joyfully with gills flaring in the deep waves. Then, slowly release the silk, just as a child releases a paper kite, allowing the fish to go where it wishes. Once the fish enters the hook, it indeed leaps several chi, tossing waves and surging across the stream surface, its scales flashing like thousands of pieces of broken gold mixed with pearl grains scattered by the wind. Observers are all dazzled and moved. After a while, when the fish becomes exhausted, it can be retrieved.
This fish is warm in nature and sweet in taste. Consuming it generates stomach fluids, benefits lung qi, nourishes blood vessels, increases marrow, removes heat, eliminates emaciation, strengthens sinews and bones, stops cough and calms asthma. Its efficacy is similar to that of Yanci (Swallow's Nest) and Gejie (Gekko Gecko).
Note: This fish is the cleanest, feeding only on moss and honey. Moss is cold in nature, while honey is warm; obtaining the power of Water and Fire having achieved harmony, it greatly tonifies Earth to generate Metal. Yanci (Swallow's Nest) is clear and purgative, descending downward; Gejie (Gekko Gecko) is harmonious and warms the viscera. This fish can combine both functions, truly being a superior food-medicine for patients with chronic cough and emaciation. *Liuya Waibian* records that Zhang Fanghai was from Zhejiang. When young, he studied in Siming Mountain and once went without grain for several months. The valleys were full of bamboo, and cliffs had honey. Honey flowing into the river transformed into fish, named Mi Yu (Honey Fish). Zhang dug bamboo shoots to fish and eat them, stating that the shoot taste was light and clear, while the honey fish was rich and delicious, surpassing even Tiantai Sesame. Thereafter, his body became light, resistant to cold and heat, and he no longer craved ordinary cooked food. Based on this, its efficacy is indeed not false.
