宗 曰∶栎叶如栗叶,所在有之。木坚而不堪充材,亦木之性也。为炭则他木皆不及。
其壳虽可染皂,若曾经雨水者,其色淡。槲亦有壳,但小而不及栎也。
时珍曰∶栎有二种∶一种不结实者,其名曰 ,其木心赤,《诗》云“瑟彼柞 ”是也;
一种结实者,其名曰栩,其实为橡。二者树小则耸枝,大则偃蹇。其叶如槠叶,而纹理皆斜

【释名】橡斗(出自《说文解字》)、皂斗(同上)、栎 (音历求)、柞子(音作)、 (与“杼”同音。序、暑)。
陶弘景说:考证《尔雅》记载:栩,就是杼。又说:栎,它的果实是 。孙炎注释说:栩,别名杼。栎,是像樗树那样的树木。 ,是盛放果实的房壳。它的果实名叫橡,有 包裹着它。《诗经·唐风》说:聚集在茂盛的栩树上。《诗经·秦风》说:山上有茂盛的栎树。陆机注释说:这就是柞栎。秦地人叫它栎,徐地人叫它杼,或者叫它栩。它的果实叫皂,也叫皂斗。它的壳煮出的汁液可以染黑布。现在京城洛阳、河内地区也把它叫作杼。大概是各地通用的语言,都是指同一种东西。
李时珍说:栎,就是柞木。实名橡斗、皂斗,是因为它的斗状外壳像斗一样凹陷,可以用来染黑布。南方人把皂读得像柞,读音相近。
【集解】苏颂说:橡实,是栎树的种子。所在山谷都有生长。树木高两到三丈。三、四月开黄花,八、九月结果实。它的果实称为皂斗,槲树和栎树都有斗状壳,但以栎树的为优。
寇宗奭说:栎树叶像栗树叶,到处都有生长。木材坚硬但不能用来做建筑材料,这也是木材的特性。如果烧成炭,其他木材都比不上。它的壳虽然可以染黑布,但如果经过雨水淋过,颜色就会变淡。槲树也有壳,但比较小,不如栎树的好。
李时珍说:栎树有两种:一种不结果的,名字叫 ,它的木质中心是红色的,《诗经》中说“瑟彼柞 ”指的就是这种;一种结果的,名字叫栩,它的果实是橡。这两种树小的时候枝条耸立,大的时候枝干弯曲。叶子像槠树叶,纹理都是斜勾的。四、五月开花像栗花,黄色。果实像荔枝核但有尖头。蒂部有斗状壳,包裹住果实的一半。里面的仁像老莲肉,山民在饥荒年份采集它当饭吃,或者捣碎浸泡提取淀粉食用,丰收年份可以用来喂猪。北方人也种植它。树木高两到三丈,坚实而重,有斑点纹路。大的可以做柱子栋梁,小的可以做薪炭。《周礼·职方氏》记载“山林适宜种植产皂物,柞、栗之类”说的就是这个。它的嫩叶可以煎水代茶饮用。

【修治】雷敩说:霜降后采收,去掉壳蒸制,从巳时到未时,切成五片,晒干使用。
周定王说:取子换水,浸泡十五次,淘去涩味,蒸熟极烂后食用,可以救济饥饿。
【气味】味苦,微温,无毒。
【主治】治疗痢疾,厚肠胃,使人肥胖健壮(苏恭)。涩肠止泻。煮食,止饥,抵御歉收年份(朱震亨/大明)。
【发明】孙思邈说:橡子,不是水果也不是谷物却最有益于人,服食未能断绝五谷时,吃它尤其好。没有气味却接受气,没有味道却接受味,消食止痢,使人强健而不疲惫。
李时珍说:树木的果实叫果,橡大概也是果类。饥荒年份,人们都取用它来抵御饥饿。从前挚虞进入南山,非常饥饿,捡橡实吃;唐代杜甫客居秦州,采集橡、栗自给自足,就是这样做的。

(From *Bencao Shiyi* [Supplement to Materia Medica])
[Names] Chao Gou Zi (from *Bencao Shiyi*), Tian Zhu Zi.
Li Rui stated: Gou Li is the same as Tian Zhu Zi.
Li Shizhen stated: The characters "Gou" and "Zhu" have similar pronunciations in local dialects. Its appearance resembles that of an oak tree, so it should be written as "Gou Li".
[Collected Explanations] Chen Zangqi stated: Gou Li grows in the valleys of Jiangnan. The trees are several feet thick in circumference, do not shed leaves in winter, and its fruits resemble chestnuts but are rounder and smaller. There is also a fruit called Que Zi, which is similar in shape but round and black; long-term consumption prevents hunger. For details, see the entry under Zhu Zi.
Kernel
[Properties and Flavors] Sweet, neutral, non-toxic.
[Therapeutic Actions] Consumption prevents hunger, thickens the intestines and stomach, and makes one fat and strong (Chen Zangqi).
(Pronounced like "Xiang". From *Tang Bencao*)
[Correction] Moved from the Wood section.
[Names] Xiang Dou (from *Shuowen Jiezi*), Zao Dou (same), Li (pronounced Li Qiu), Zuo Zi (pronounced Zuo), (Same as "Zhu". Xu, Shu).
Tao Hongjing stated: According to *Erya*: Xu is Zhu. It also says: Li, its fruit is . Sun Yan's annotation states: Xu is also called Zhu. Li is a tree similar to Chu. , the housing for the fruit. Its fruit is named Xiang, wrapped by . The *Book of Songs · Tang Feng* says: Gathering on lush Xu trees. The *Book of Songs · Qin Feng* says: Mountains have lush Li trees. Lu Ji's annotation states: This is Zuo Li. People in Qin call it Li, people in Xu call it Zhu, or sometimes Xu. Its fruit is called Zao, also Zao Dou. Its shell can be boiled to extract juice for dyeing black cloth. Currently, in the capital Luoyang and Henei regions, it is also called Zhu. This is likely a common term across regions, referring to the same object.
Li Shizhen stated: Li is Zuo wood. Its true names are Xiang Dou and Zao Dou, because its bowl-like shell resembles a dou (a measuring vessel) and can be used to dye black cloth. Southerners pronounce Zao similarly to Zuo, hence the phonetic similarity.
[Collected Explanations] Su Song stated: Xiang Shi are the seeds of the Li tree. They grow in valleys everywhere. The trees are two to three zhang high. They bloom yellow flowers in the third and fourth months and bear fruit in the eighth and ninth months. Their fruit is called Zao Dou. Both Hu and Li trees have shell casings, but those of Li are superior.
Kou Zongshi stated: Li leaves resemble chestnut leaves and are found everywhere. The wood is hard but unsuitable for construction materials, which is its nature. However, when made into charcoal, no other wood compares. Although its shells can dye black cloth, if exposed to rain, the color becomes pale. Hu trees also have shells, but they are smaller and inferior to those of Li.
Li Shizhen stated: There are two types of Li trees: one that does not bear fruit, named , with red heartwood, as mentioned in the *Book of Songs*: "Se bi Zuo "; the other bears fruit, named Xu, and its fruit is Xiang. When young, both types have upright branches; when old, their branches become curved. The leaves resemble Zhu leaves, with diagonal vein patterns. They bloom yellow flowers like chestnuts in the fourth and fifth months. The fruit resembles lychee pits but has a point. The calyx forms a cup-shaped casing covering half the fruit. The kernel resembles old lotus meat. Mountain people harvest it during famine years for food, or crush and soak it to extract starch. In abundant years, it can be used to fatten pigs. Northerners also cultivate it. The trees are two to three zhang high, solid, heavy, with spotted grain patterns. Large ones can serve as pillars and beams; small ones serve as firewood and charcoal. The *Rites of Zhou · Zhifang Shi* records: "Forests and mountains are suitable for producing substances for dyeing, such as Zuo and Li," referring to this. Its tender leaves can be decocted as tea.
Fruit
[Processing] Lei Xiao stated: Harvest after frost, remove shells, steam from Si hour to Wei hour, cut into five pieces, and dry in the sun for use.
King Ding of Zhou stated: Take the nuts, change the water, soak fifteen times, wash away the astringent taste, steam until thoroughly cooked, and eat to relieve hunger.
[Properties and Flavors] Bitter, slightly warm, non-toxic.
[Therapeutic Actions] Treats dysentery, thickens the intestines and stomach, and promotes robustness (Su Gong). Astringes the intestines and stops diarrhea. Boiled and eaten, it relieves hunger and sustains during lean years (Zhu Danxi/Daming).
[Elucidation] Sun Simiao stated: Xiang Zi is neither a fruit nor a grain yet is most beneficial to humans. When fasting from grains is difficult, eating it is excellent. It absorbs Qi without having a distinct odor, absorbs flavor without having a distinct taste, aids digestion, stops dysentery, and strengthens the body without causing exhaustion.
Li Shizhen stated: Fruits from trees are called Guo; Xiang is likely a type of Guo. During famines, people collect it to stave off hunger. Previously, Zhi Yu entered the Southern Mountains, was very hungry, and ate collected Xiang Shi; Du Fu, while residing in Qinzhou during the Tang Dynasty, gathered Xiang and Li to sustain himself. These examples confirm this practice.
[Attached Prescriptions] Five new prescriptions.

Effect seen within four or five doses. (Li Lou *Qifang*). Hard stone abscesses that do not suppurate: Use one Xiang Zi, grind with vinegar on a bluestone to make juice, and apply. Change when dry; effect achieved within ten applications.
Shell Casing
[Processing] Zhu Danxi (Daming) stated: For medicinal use, crush finely, stir-fry until charred or roast until carbonized (preserve nature), then grind into powder.
[Properties and Flavors] Astringent, warm, non-toxic.
[Therapeutic Actions] As a powder or decoction, it stops dysentery. Can also be used for dyeing black cloth (Su Gong). Treats intestinal wind, metrorrhagia, leukorrhea, and cold-heat diarrhea.
