【校正】并入《别录》有名未用城里赤柱。
【释名】百岁城中木（《本经》）、城里赤柱。
《别录》曰∶淮木生晋阳平泽。又云∶城里赤柱生晋·平阳。
时珍曰∶按∶《吴普本草》∶淮木生晋·平阳、河东平泽，与《别录》城里赤柱出处及
主治相同，乃一物也。即古城中之木，晋人用之，故云生晋·平阳及河东。今并为一，但淮
木字恐有差讹耳。
【气味】苦，平，无毒。《别录》曰∶辛。
普曰∶神农、雷公∶无毒。

藏器曰∶城东腐木，即城东古木在土中腐烂者，一名地主。城东者，犹东墙土之义也。
《杜正伦》方∶用古城柱木煮汤服，治难产。即其类也。

【主治】心腹痛，止泄、便脓血（《别录》）。主鬼气
腐木渍汁涂之，亦可研末和醋敷之（藏器）。凡手足掣痛，不仁不随者，朽木煮汤，热渍痛
处，甚良（时珍）。
（出自《本草拾遗》）
【释名】鬼针。
陈藏器说：这种“腐竹根”中先入土的部分。因为它的性质贼恶，所以隐去了它的本名。草部也有名为“鬼针”的药物。
【气味】味苦，性平，无毒。
【主治】治疗中恶邪之气、注忤（突然发生的惊恐或邪气侵袭），以及心腹疼痛，煮汁服用（陈藏器）。煮汁服用，可排出骨鲠。烧存性后，加入少许轻粉，用油调匀，涂抹小儿头疮（李时珍）。
【附方】新收录二方。
鱼骨卡喉：取篱笆脚下的朽竹，去泥研成粉末，用蜜制成如芡实大小的丸剂。用绵包裹含在口中，鱼骨自然消融。（王贶《百一选方》）
小便尿血：取篱笆下的竹根，入土多年的，数量不限，洗净煎汤，连服数碗，立即止血。（《救急良方》……）
（杂木类七种，附录十九种）
（出自《神农本草经》下品）
【校正】并入《名医别录》中“有名未用”的“城里赤柱”。
【释名】百岁城中木（《神农本草经》）、城里赤柱。
《名医别录》说：淮木生长在晋阳平泽。又说：城里赤柱生长在晋代平阳。
李时珍说：查考《吴普本草》：淮木生长在晋代平阳、河东平泽，与《名医别录》中“城里赤柱”的产地及主治相同，是同一物。即古城中的木头，晋人使用它，所以说生长在晋代平阳及河东。现在将二者合并为一，只是“淮木”二字恐怕有讹误。
【气味】味苦，性平，无毒。《名医别录》说：味辛。
吴普说：神农、雷公认为：无毒。
【主治】治疗久咳上气，损伤中焦导致的身体虚弱消瘦。女子阴部蚀烂、漏下出血，白带多伴阴部蚀烂，湿痹邪气，补益中气、益气（均出自《名医别录》）。煮汤服用，主治难产……
（《名医别录》有名未用）
【释名】地主。
陈藏器说：城东腐木，即城东古木在土中腐烂者，又名地主。“城东”的意思，就像“东墙土”的含义一样。
《杜正伦》方：用古城柱木煮汤服用，治疗难产。就是这一类的药物。
【气味】味咸，性温，无毒。陈藏器说：性平。
【主治】心腹痛，止泻、便脓血（《名医别录》）。主治鬼气。
腐木浸泡汁液涂抹患处，也可以研末和醋敷之（陈藏器）。凡是手足抽搐疼痛，麻木不遂者，用朽木煮汤，趁热浸渍痛处，效果很好（李时珍）。
(From *Bencao Shiyi* [Supplement to Materia Medica])
[Names] Guizhen (Ghost Needle).
Chen Zangqi stated: This refers to the part of the "rotten bamboo root" that first enters the soil. Because its nature is considered malicious and evil, its original name was concealed. There is also a herb named "Guizhen" in the Grass category.
[Properties and Flavor] Bitter, neutral, non-toxic.
[Indications] Treats sudden onset of malignant qi, adverse invasion (sudden fright or pathogenic invasion), and pain in the heart and abdomen; decocted juice is taken orally (Chen Zangqi). Decocted juice is taken to expel fish bones stuck in the throat. Calcined until carbonized but retaining its properties, mixed with a small amount of Calomelas (Qingfen), and applied with oil to treat head sores in children (Li Shizhen).
[Prescriptions] Two new prescriptions included.
Fish bone stuck in the throat: Take rotten bamboo from the base of a fence, remove mud, grind into powder, and make pills the size of an Indian corn seed using honey. Wrap in cotton and hold in the mouth; the bone will dissolve naturally. (Wang Kuang, *Baiyi Xuanfang* [Selected Prescriptions for Hundred Diseases])
Hematuria (blood in urine): Take bamboo roots under fences that have been in the soil for many years, quantity unspecified. Wash clean, decoct in water, and drink several bowls; bleeding stops immediately. (*Jiuji Liangfang* [Good Prescriptions for Emergencies]...)
(Seven species in the Miscellaneous Wood Category, nineteen species appended)
(From *Shennong Bencao Jing* [Divine Farmer's Materia Medica], Lower Grade)
[Correction] Merged with "Chengli Chizhu" [Red Pillar Inside the City] listed as "Known Name, Unused" in *Mingyi Bielu* [Record of Famous Physicians].
[Names] Baishui Chengzhongmu (Century-Old Tree Within the City Walls) (*Shennong Bencao Jing*), Chengli Chizhu [Red Pillar Inside the City].
*Mingyi Bielu* states: Huaimu grows in Pingze, Jinyang. It also states: Chengli Chizhu grows in Pingyang during the Jin Dynasty.
Li Shizhen stated: According to *Wu Pu Bencao*: Huaimu grows in Pingyang, Jin Dynasty, and Pingze, Hedong. This matches the origin and indications of "Chengli Chizhu" in *Mingyi Bielu*, indicating they are the same substance. It refers to wood from ancient cities used by people of the Jin Dynasty, hence the statement that it grows in Pingyang, Jin, and Hedong. Now merged into one entry; however, the term "Huaimu" may contain an error.
[Properties and Flavor] Bitter, neutral, non-toxic. *Mingyi Bielu* states: Pungent.
Wu Pu stated: Shen Nong and Lei Gong considered it: Non-toxic.
[Indications] Treats chronic cough with rebellious qi, damage to the Middle Jiao resulting in emaciation and weakness. For women, treats erosion of the yin, leukorrhea with bleeding, excessive white discharge with yin erosion, wind-damp bi syndrome with pathogenic qi, and tonifies the Middle Jiao and benefits Qi (all from *Mingyi Bielu*). Decoction is taken to treat difficult labor...
("Known Name, Unused" in *Mingyi Bielu*)
[Correction] Merged with two entries from *Bencao Shiyi* [Supplement to Materia Medica]: "Fumu" [Rotten Wood] and "Dizhu" [Earth Lord].
[Names] Dizhu [Earth Lord].
Chen Zangqi stated: "Chengdong Fumu" [Rotten Wood East of the City] refers to ancient trees east of the city that have rotted in the soil, also known as Dizhu. "East of the City" carries the same meaning as "soil of the east wall."
The prescription of Du Zhenglun: Uses wood from ancient city pillars decocted in water and taken orally to treat dystocia [difficult labor]. It belongs to this category.
[Properties and Flavor] Salty, warm, non-toxic. Chen Zangqi stated: Neutral.
[Indications] Pain in the heart and abdomen, stops diarrhea and bloody/purulent stools (*Mingyi Bielu*). Treats ghostly qi.
Soak rotten wood in water and apply the juice to the affected area; alternatively, grind into powder and mix with vinegar for application (Chen Zangqi). For any cases of spasmodic pain in the hands and feet, numbness, and inability to move, decoct rotten wood in water and apply the hot liquid to the painful area; this is very effective (Li Shizhen).
