州（松脂为之使，恶 菌、雷丸。）
今出武陵、交州、宁州诸远山。犀有二角，以额上者为胜，又有通天犀，角上有一白缕，
直上至端，此至神验。或云是水犀，角出水中。《汉书》所云∶骇鸡犀者，以置米边，鸡皆
惊骇不敢啄。又置屋中，乌鸟不敢集屋上。昔者有人以犀为纛，死于野中，有行人见有鸢飞
翔其上，不敢下往者，疑犀为异，抽取便群鸟竞集。又云通天犀，夜露不濡，以此知之。凡
犀见成物皆被蒸煮，不堪入药，惟生者为佳。虽曰屑片，亦是已煮炙，况用屑乎！又有光犀，
其角甚长，文理亦似犀，不堪药用尔。（《新修》一九五页，《大观》卷十七，《政和》三八三
页）
【羊角】
味咸、苦，性温、微寒，无毒。主治青盲（一种眼病，视物不清），明目，杀灭疥虫，止住寒性泄泻，辟除恶鬼、老虎、野狼的侵害，止住惊悸。治疗全身关节中的结聚之气，风邪引起的头痛以及蛊毒，吐血，妇女产后遗留的疼痛。烧焦后能杀灭鬼魅，辟除老虎和野狼。长期服用可安心神，益气力，使身体轻盈。产于河西地区的山谷中。采集没有固定时间，但不要使其受潮，受潮后有毒。（菟丝子是其引经药。）
羊髓：味甘，性温，无毒。主治男女内伤、阴气不足，通利血脉，补益经气，用酒送服。
羊心：主要止住因忧怒导致的膈间气滞。
羊齿：主治小儿羊痫风（癫痫的一种），寒热病症。三月三日采集。
羊肉：味甘，性大热，无毒。主要缓解中焦虚损，治疗哺乳期的各种疾病，以及头部受大风侵袭导致汗出的症状。治疗虚劳寒冷，补中益气，安心神，止惊悸。
羊角的方药应用不广泛，其余部分都入汤剂煎煮。羊有三四种，以青色者为最佳，其次是黑羊。那些羊及北方少数民族地区无角的羊，只适合食用，作为药材不如都下（京城）产的优良。其乳汁和骨髓则肥美好。羊肝不可与猪肉、梅子、小豆同食，否则损伤人心，大病患者尤其要注意。（《新修本草》一九九页，《大观本草》卷十七，《政和本草》三七九页）
【犀角】
味苦、咸、酸，性寒、微寒，无毒。主治百种毒蛊疰病，邪鬼，瘴气，杀灭钩吻、鸩鸟羽毛、蛇毒，祛除邪气，防止迷惑和梦魇睡眠。治疗伤寒，温疫，头痛，寒热，各种毒瓦斯。长期服用可使身体轻盈健壮。产于永昌地区的山谷及益州。（松脂是其引经药，畏菌、雷丸。）
现在出产于武陵、交州、宁州等偏远山区。犀牛有两只角，以额头上的那只为佳。又有通天犀，角上有一条白纹，笔直向上延伸到尖端，这种最为神验。有人说这是水犀，角生长在水中。《汉书》所说的骇鸡犀，把它放在米旁边，鸡都会惊骇不敢啄食。又放在屋里，乌鸦也不敢停在屋顶上。过去有人把犀牛角做成旗帜，死在野外，有路人看见老鹰在它上面飞翔，不敢下来靠近，怀疑犀角奇异，抽取出来后群鸟竞相聚集。又说通天犀，夜间露水打不湿它，由此可知。凡是看到的成品犀角都被蒸煮过，不堪入药，只有生犀才是佳品。虽然说是屑片，也是已经煮炙过的，何况是用屑呢！还有光犀，它的角很长，纹理也像犀角，但不堪药用罢了。（《新修本草》一九五页，《大观本草》卷十七，《政和本草》三八三页）

It mainly treats Qingmang (a type of eye disease characterized by blurred vision), improves vision, kills scabies mites, stops cold-type diarrhea, wards off evil spirits, tigers, and wild wolves, and stops palpitations due to fright. It treats Qi stagnation in all joints, wind-induced headache, Gu poison (poisoning caused by venomous insects or magical curses), hematemesis (vomiting blood), and residual pain after childbirth in women. When calcined, it kills ghosts and charms, and wards off tigers and wild wolves. Long-term consumption calms the mind, boosts Qi and strength, and makes the body feel light. It is produced in the valleys of Hexi. It can be collected at any time, but must not be allowed to become damp, as dampness renders it toxic. (Tusizi [Cuscutae Semen, Dodder Seed] acts as its guiding herb.)

Sheep Horn is not widely used in prescriptions; the rest are usually decocted in soups. There are three or four types of sheep, with green ones being the best, followed by black ones. The sheep from the northern barbarian regions without horns are only suitable for eating; as medicinal materials, they are inferior to those from Duxia (the capital). Their milk and marrow are rich and good. Sheep liver should not be eaten together with pork, plums, or adzuki beans, as this damages the Heart, especially in patients with serious illnesses.

[Rhino Horn]
Bitter, salty, and sour in flavor, cold and slightly cold in nature, non-toxic. It mainly treats various toxins, Gu Zhu diseases (chronic infectious diseases attributed to malignant qi), evil spirits, miasma, kills Gouwen (Aconitum ferox), Zhen bird feathers, and snake venom, expels evil Qi, and prevents confusion and nightmare sleep. It treats Shanghan (cold damage), Wenyi (warm epidemics), headache, chills and fever, and various toxic vapors. Long-term consumption makes the body light and vigorous. It is produced in the valleys of Yongchang and Yizhou. (Songzhi [Pini Resina, Pine Resin] acts as its guiding herb; it is incompatible with Jun and Leiwan.)
It is currently produced in remote mountains of Wuling, Jiaozhou, and Ningzhou. The rhinoceros has two horns, with the frontal one being superior. There is also Tongtian Xi (Sky-Piercing Rhino), which has a white stripe running straight up to the tip of the horn; this type is extremely effective. Some say it is Shui Xi (Water Rhino), whose horn grows in water. The "Haiji Xi" (Chicken-Startling Rhino) mentioned in the Book of Han: when placed next to rice, chickens are startled and dare not peck at it. When placed in a house, crows do not dare to perch on the roof. In the past, someone made a banner from a rhino horn and died in the wild. A passerby saw eagles flying above it but dared not land nearby, suspecting the horn's strangeness. Upon extraction, birds flocked to gather around. It is also said that Tongtian Xi does not get wet by night dew, which serves as proof. All commercially available rhino horns have been steamed or boiled and are unsuitable for medicinal use; only raw horn is excellent. Even if sold as powder slices, they are already cooked and roasted, let alone using powder! There is also Guang Xi (Smooth Rhino), whose horn is very long and has texture similar to rhino horn, but it is unsuitable for medicinal use.
