It is also heard that those that move are insects, and those that lurk are fish; both are suitable for medicinal use, without distinction of nobility or baseness.
"Chun" (蠢) means movement; "Qian" (潜) means lurking or hiding.
The whole scorpion (Quanxie, *Scorpio*) is toxic and must have its toxicity removed before use. It can unblock deafness and treat various wind-induced convulsions and spasms. Banmao (斑蝥, *Mylabris*) should be stir-fried until cooked and not used raw. It promotes urination to eliminate edema, induces abortion, and dissipates scrofula sores.
For Quanxie (*Scorpio*), the tight and small ones are superior. The flavor is sweet and acrid, and it must be detoxified before use. For Banmao (*Mylabris*), remove the legs and wings, stir-fry with rice until the rice turns yellow, then discard the rice. If used raw, it causes vomiting and diarrhea. Its flavor is acrid and cold, with high toxicity.
To eliminate water qi (fluid retention) and goiters, nothing surpasses Haige (海蛤, *Concha Arcae*). To calm the mind and grind away visual obstructions, nothing brings greater joy than Zhenzhu (珍珠, *Pearl*).
Haige (*Concha Arcae*) has a bitter and salty flavor, is neutral in nature, and non-toxic. It treats edema, eliminates cough and counterflow qi, calms asthma, and relieves restlessness. Zhenzhu (*Pearl*) is cold in nature and non-toxic, originating from Lianzhou. It primarily moistens the skin and enhances complexion. Wrapped in cotton and inserted into the ear, it can treat deafness.
Shuizhi (水蛭, *Hirudo*) treats carbuncles and sores, unblocks meridians, and breaks blood stasis. Tianluo (田螺, *Cipangopaludina chinensis*) clears heat from the eyes and can remedy regurgitation.
Shuizhi (*Hirudo*), also known as Mahuangqi, lives in water as Shuizhi, in grass as Caozhi, and in mud as Nizhi. It attaches to humans and cattle/horses' thighs and calves to suck blood. For medicinal use, smaller Shuizhi are preferred. This creature is extremely difficult to kill; even after roasting for years, it revives upon contact with water. It must be stir-fried until thoroughly yellow and cooked; otherwise, if ingested, it may lay eggs inside the body causing harm. Tianluo (*Cipangopaludina chinensis*) is greatly cold and non-toxic. It should not be eaten in excess. Its meat applied externally treats hot sores; its shell treats regurgitation; its juice awakens from drunkenness and quenches thirst. Those taken from fields are best.
Shufu (鼠妇, *Porcellio*) unblocks amenorrhea and promotes urination for strangury. Zhang Zhongjing used it to treat chronic malaria. Mengchong (虻虫, *Tabanus*) breaks hard masses and grinds away blood accumulations; it is indispensable in formulas for Shanghan (Cold Damage).

Dilong (*Pheretima*) has a bitter flavor and is non-toxic. Use the white-necked variety for best results. For Shanghan with high fever, Dilong juice is required. For dysentery and eliminating Dan Du (erysipelas), use Dilong feces. Woniu (*Helix pomatia*), commonly known as Qiluo, is ubiquitous, growing in damp places under stone walls. It also treats back carbuncles; apply its mucus topically.
Qicao (蛴螬, *Melolontha larva* / White Grub) removes eye opacities in miscellaneous departments and extracts splinters from golden wounds (lacerations). Gejie (蛤蚧, *Gekko gecko* / Gecko) treats consumption cough and stops coughing; it also tonifies the lungs and drives away evil spirits.

Manli Yu (*Anguilla japonica*) has a sweet flavor and is toxic. It is ubiquitous. Although toxic, it tonifies the five zang organs' deficiencies, eliminates white patch wind-heat on the neck/cheeks, and roasted bones fumigate mosquitoes/lice to kill them. Shilongzi (*Eumeces chinensis*) is similar to Xiyi, Qingting (Dragonfly), Rongyuan (Salamander), and Shou Gong.
Wuzei Gu (乌贼骨, *Cutula Sepiae* / Cuttlebone) is Haipiaoxiao (海螵蛸). It removes opacities, kills parasites, treats metrorrhagia, and attacks dysentery. Lingqi Lin (鲮鲤鳞, *Manis pentadactyla scales* / Pangolin Scales) is Chanshanjia (穿山甲). It treats scabies/tinea and eradicates demonic influences.
Haipiaoxiao (*Cutula Sepiae*) has a salty and slightly warm flavor and is non-toxic. It treats yin sores and deafness. Its blood resembles ink; it absorbs wave-mist to muddy the water for self-defense. It has eight legs clustered around its mouth, floating on the water surface. Crows see it and believe it will die, attempting to peck it. It gathers its legs, clutches the crow, drags it underwater, and eats it. Hence the name Wuzei Yu (Crow-Terror Fish). Chanshanjia (*Manis pentadactyla*) is cool in nature and toxic. It treats evil fright and bi-syndrome.
Tidal fever and bone-steaming heat specifically use Biejia (鳖甲, *Testudinis Carapax et Plastrum*). Rectal prolapse and fox odor still utilize Zhizhu (蜘蛛, *Araneus* / Spider).
Biejia (*Testudinis Carapax et Plastrum*) has a salty and neutral flavor and is non-toxic. It is ubiquitous. It treats metrorrhagia and malaria, and governs mass formations and accumulation. Do not consume with chicken eggs; consuming with Amaranth injures the body. Zhizhu (*Araneus*) is cold in nature and non-toxic. It is ubiquitous but diverse. Species with bristles, or those that are thin/small and multi-colored, should not be used. For scrofula, back sores, dental caries, and facial deviation, take spider webs and place them in the collar.
Chantui (蝉蜕, *Cicadae Periostracum*) dispels wind and stops infantile night crying attributed to ghosts. Shepi (蛇皮, *Snake Skin*) generates hemorrhoids and lifts intestinal wind bleeding cases.

Wa (蛙, *Rana temporaria* / Frog) tonifies damage and dispels fatigue. One type, Shui Ji (Water Chicken), is a delicacy, specifically tonifying postpartum deficiency.
Ji Yu (*Carassius auratus*) has a sweet and warm flavor and is non-toxic. Burned to ash, it treats various sores and tonifies the stomach and harmonizes the middle. Wa (*Rana temporaria*) has a sweet and cold flavor and is non-toxic. It kills Zhu邪 (Zhu pathogenic factors).
Wugong (蜈蚣, *Scolopendra* / Centipede) opens infantile lockjaw, induces abortion in pregnant women, and further counters snake venom. Tougou (土狗, *Gryllotalpa* / Mole Cricket) induces difficult labor, covers splinters in flesh, and reduces swelling instantly.
Wugong (*Scolopendra*) has a pungent and warm flavor and is toxic. It must be stir-fried until cooked before use. It primarily kills three worms.

It treats convulsions, epilepsy, metrorrhagia, lockjaw, and wind-blocking the throat.
Baihua She (白花蛇, *Deinagkistrodon acutus* / Hundred-Flower Snake) governs various winds, damp-bi with contracture, and scabies/leprosy. Wulingzhi (五灵脂, *Trogopteri Excrementum* / Flying Squirrel Droppings) unblocks amenorrhea; for comatose postpartum women, seek it early.
Baihua She (*Deinagkistrodon acutus*) has a sweet, warm, and salty flavor and is toxic. It governs facial deviation from wind and major wind sores, functioning similarly to Wushao She (Black-striped Snake). Wulingzhi (*Trogopteri Excrementum*) is the droppings of the Hanhao Chong (Flying Squirrel). It treats intestinal wind and cold qi; stir-frying treats metrorrhagia.
One must pay attention to practicing this way, delving deeply into the detailed effort.
