麝香：味辛，性温。主治驱除邪恶之气。杀灭鬼魅精怪之物。治疗温疟、蛊毒。治疗癫痫抽搐。去除体内的寄生虫。长期服用可祛除邪气，使人不做噩梦，睡眠安宁。生长在山谷中。
（赞曰）蕴结着寒冷的香气，山中的农民视其为珍宝。踪迹追逐着松树的阴影，胜过食用柏叶的味道。（它被）剔爪时如同遗弃一般珍贵，（若被捕获）连肚脐都后悔莫及令人畏惧。（香气）远射弥漫，园林中的人屏住呼吸。
《埤雅》记载：麝在夏季吃蛇多，因此寒气凝结成香。李时珍说：麝居住在山上，獐居住在水泽边，以此作为区别。《周礼》记载：掌葛官按时向山中农民征收材料。郭登的诗写道：万物生逢其时便显珍贵。黄列子游猎于九江，追逐踪迹寻找洞穴。韩翃的诗写道：香麝在松阴之中。陶潜的诗写道：品尝美味如同归家。陶弘景说：麝常食柏叶。苏颂说：第一等的麝香，是麝自己用爪子剔出来的，名叫“遗香”。其次是脐香，是捕杀麝后取得的。诗句引用：“弃我如遗”、“后君噬脐”、“无独斯畏”。马祖常的诗写道：月光远射，离离洁白。唐代无名氏的赋写道：笼中流动着麝香的浓郁气息。苏颂说：麝香聚集的地方，草木不生；经过园林，瓜果不结果实。《论语》引用：“屏气似不息者”。
牛黄：味苦，性平。主治惊痫寒热。热盛导致的狂躁。祛除邪气，驱逐鬼魅。生长在沼泽地带。
（赞曰）像发怒吼叫的狂人，中美之地的珍贵黄块。通灵的牛角折断，感结于心。蝴蝶飞舞预示奇异之事，骆驼类懂得防备。隐藏名字视为丑宝，韬光养晦。
陶弘景说：神牛出入鸣吼时会有牛黄产生。郝经的诗写道：叫吼愤怒如同狂人。《左传》中子服惠伯说：中美之地能出黄。扬子云说：它的德行珍贵如黄。刘基的诗写道：文犀也有通灵的角。《易林》写道：蹇牛折角。王逸的歌写道：忧怀感结重重叹息回忆。《诗经》引用：“中心藏之”。《酉阳杂俎》记载：有人得到牛吐出的黄，剖开后里面有东西，像蝴蝶一样飞走。李时珍说：驼黄与牛黄相似，但功效不如牛黄。因为属丑（牛），所以隐藏其名。《礼记》引用：“又敢与知防”。名医说：不要让见到日月光。《诗经》引用：“遵养时晦”。孔融的诗写道：美玉韬光。
**Musk (Shexiang)**: Pungent, warm. Primarily expels evil qi. Kills demonic spirits and strange entities. Treats warm malaria (Wen Nue) and gu poison. Treats epilepsy (Xian). Eliminates three types of parasites. Long-term consumption removes pathogenic factors, prevents nightmares, and ensures peaceful sleep. Grows in mountain valleys.
(Praise): It harbors cold fragrance, highly prized by mountain farmers. Its traces follow the shade of pines, surpassing the taste of cypress leaves. Extracted like something discarded, its capture induces regret as deep as biting one's own navel, inspiring fear. Its fragrance shoots far and wide, causing people in gardens to hold their breath.
*Pi Ya* records: Musk consumes many snakes in summer, leading to the condensation of cold fragrance. Li Shizhen states: Musk inhabits mountains, while deer inhabit marshes; this distinguishes them. *Zhou Li* records that the official Zhang Ge collects materials from mountain farmers at appropriate times. Guo Deng's poem states: "All things are precious when they meet their time." Huang Liezi hunted in Jiujiang, tracking traces to find dens. Han Hong's poem states: "Fragrant musk lies within the pine shade." Tao Qian's poem states: "Tasting delicacies feels like returning home." Tao Hongjing states: Musk often eats cypress leaves. Su Song states: The first grade is musk extracted by its own claws, named "Yi Xiang" (Discarded Fragrance). The second grade is umbilical musk, obtained after hunting. Poetic references include: "Abandoned like trash," "Regretting later is like biting one's navel," "Fear not being alone." Ma Zuchang's poem states: "Moonlight shines far on the white, distinct flowers." An anonymous Tang dynasty fu states: "The cage flows with the rich aroma of musk." Su Song states: Where musk fragrance gathers, grass and trees do not grow; where it passes through gardens, melons and fruits do not bear fruit. *Analects* quotes: "Holding his breath as if he were not breathing."
**Calculus Bovis (Niuhuang)**: Bitter, neutral. Primarily treats fright, epilepsy, and alternating cold and heat. Treats mania caused by excessive heat. Removes pathogenic factors and drives away demons. Grows in marshy areas.
(Praise): Like a raging beast roaring, the precious yellow substance of China and beauty. The spirit-connected horn breaks, feeling condensed in the heart. Butterflies flying signal anomalies; camel-like creatures know how to defend. Hiding its name, it is considered an ugly treasure, cultivating obscurity and hiding its brilliance.
Tao Hongjing states: When divine cows enter or exit and roar, Calculus Bovis appears. Hao Jing's poem states: "Roaring angrily like a madman." *Zuo Zhuan* quotes Zi Fu Huibo: "China and beauty can produce yellow." Yang Ziyun states: "Its virtue is precious like yellow." Liu Ji's poem states: "Even literary rhinoceros horns have spiritual connections." *Yi Lin* states: "The lame cow breaks its horn." Wang Yi's song states: "Sorrow and feelings condense, sighing repeatedly." *Classic of Poetry* quotes: "Hidden in the center of the heart." *Youyang Zazu* records: Someone obtained yellow vomited by a cow; upon cutting it open, there was something inside that flew away like a butterfly. Li Shizhen states: Camel calculus resembles Calculus Bovis but lacks its efficacy. Because it belongs to the Ox (Chou), its name is hidden. *Book of Rites* quotes: "How dare I know how to defend?" Famous physicians state: Do not let it see sunlight or moonlight. *Classic of Poetry* quotes: "Nourish in obscurity." Kong Rong's poem states: "Beautiful jade hides its light."
