玉泉
味甘，性平，无毒。主治五脏百病，能柔润筋骨、强壮骨骼，安定魂魄，促进肌肉生长，补益元气，疏通血脉，治疗妇人带下十二种疾病，消除气滞癃闭，使耳目清明。
长期服用可抵御寒暑，不感饥饿口渴，如同不老神仙，身体轻盈，延年益寿。人在临死前服用五斤，死后三年尸体颜色不变。又名玉札。产于蓝田山谷。采集没有固定时间。（忌与款冬花同用。）
陶隐居说：蓝田位于长安东南，旧时出产美玉，这应当是玉的精华，白色的质地明澈，可以熔化成为水，所以人们通称为玉。张华又说：服用玉要用蓝田角玉中白色的；这种物品平常服用，就能成仙。有人临死前服用五斤，死后经过三年，其颜色不变。自古以来发掘古墓见到尸体像活人一样，他们的身体内外，无不含有大量的金玉。汉代制度，王公贵族下葬，都用珠玉做匣子，这是为了使尸体不朽的缘故。炼制服用的方法，也应根据《仙经》中服玉的方法，将玉磨成水屑随宜服用。虽然说是性平，但服用玉的人也多出现发热，像服用寒食散后的症状。金玉既然是天地的重宝，不同于其他石头，如果未能深刻理解节度，不要轻易使用。现在考证：别本注释说：玉泉，是玉的泉液。以仙室玉池中产出的为上品。现在的《仙经》三十六水法中，将玉化为玉浆，称为玉泉。服用它能延年不老，然而功效不如自然泉液。又名玉液，又名琼浆。臣禹锡等谨按日华子说：玉泉治疗血块。
《图经》在玉屑条下已有详细记载。
别说云：谨按《图经》说法，仪州的栗玉，是黄石中光莹的部分，大凡玉之所以区别于石，是因为它坚硬而有纹理，火刃不能损伤作为区别罢了。现在的仪州黄石，虽然当地人强行命名为栗玉，但它轻小，刀刃就可以雕刻，与阶州的白石同类而颜色不同，恐怕不足以列入各类玉石之中。
《衍义》说：玉泉，《经》云：生于蓝田山谷。采集没有固定时间。现在蓝田山谷没有玉泉。泉水，古今都不说采集。又说：服用五斤。古今方剂，用水不说用斤。又说：一名玉札。如此则不知道到底是什么东西。各家解释，更不确定。陶隐居虽然说可以熔化它为水，所以名叫玉泉。诚然如此，则应当叫玉水，也不应当叫玉泉。大概“泉”具有流动分布的意义，分辨开来则无所不通。《易经》又说：山下出泉蒙。如此则确实不是静止的水，终究未远，也是文本脱漏错误。采集玉制成浆，断然无疑。况且书籍篇章尚且多有亡佚，何况《本草》又在唐尧之上，道理也不奇怪。谓《本草》误为蛇全。《唐本》注云：全字乃是合字，陶见误本改为含，尚且如此不定。后有铁浆，其义与此相同。又《道藏经》有金饭玉浆的文字，唐代李商隐有“琼浆未饮结成冰”的诗，是知道玉确实可以成为浆。又荆门军界有玉泉寺，其中有泉，与寻常泉水无异，也不能治病。寺中日用此水。又西洛有万安山，山腹间有寺曰玉泉。曾两次登上这座山，质询玉泉的疑惑，寺僧都懵懂不能回答。寺前有泉一派，供寺中使用。泉窦都是青石，与诸井水无异。若按别本注玉泉，玉之泉液也，以仙室玉池中者为上。如此则举世不能得，也漫立此名，故知别本所注为不可取。又有燕玉出燕北，体柔脆，如油和粉色，不入药，当附于此。
Yu Quan (Jade Spring)
The flavor is sweet, the nature is neutral, and it is non-toxic. It primarily treats diseases of the five zang organs and hundred ailments; it softens tendons and strengthens bones, calms the hun and po spirits, promotes muscle growth, tonifies qi, benefits blood vessels, treats twelve types of leukorrhea in women, eliminates qi stagnation and strangury, and clarifies the ears and eyes.
Long-term consumption enables one to resist cold and heat, prevents hunger and thirst, makes one like an immortal who does not age, lightens the body, and prolongs life. If taken by a person on their deathbed (five jin), the corpse's color remains unchanged for three years after death. It is also known as Yu Zha (Jade Tally). It grows in the valleys of Lantian. It can be harvested at any time. (It is incompatible with Dong Hua Flower / Kuan Dong Hua.)
Tao Hongjing stated: Lantian is located southeast of Chang'an, where beautiful jade was traditionally produced. This substance should be the essence of jade. Those that are white have a clear and transparent texture and can be melted into water; therefore, people generally refer to them simply as jade. Zhang Hua further stated: To consume jade, one should use the white Jade Jiao (Jiao Jade) from Lantian; regular consumption of this substance leads to immortality. There is a record of someone taking five jin before death, and after three years post-mortem, their complexion remained unchanged. Since ancient times, when tombs were excavated and corpses found looking alive, their bodies, inside and out, invariably contained large amounts of gold and jade. In Han dynasty regulations, kings and dukes were buried in caskets made of pearls and jade, ensuring imperishability. The method of refining and consuming it should follow the "Immortal Classic" methods for consuming jade, grinding it into water-like particles for appropriate use. Although its nature is described as neutral, those who consume jade often experience fever, resembling symptoms after taking Hanshi San (Cold Food Powder). Gold and jade are precious treasures of heaven and earth, unlike other stones. If one has not deeply understood the proper dosage and precautions, do not use them lightly. Current analysis notes: Another version's annotation states: Yu Quan is the liquid essence of jade. The best quality comes from the Jade Pool in immortal chambers. In the current "Immortal Classic" thirty-six water methods, jade is transformed into jade paste, called Yu Quan. Consuming it prolongs life and prevents aging, although its efficacy is inferior to natural spring water. It is also known as Yu Ye (Jade Fluid) and Qiong Jiang (Nectar). Minister Yu Xi et al. respectfully note: Ri Huazi stated: Yu Quan treats blood masses.
Tu Jing Wen detailed this under the entry for Yu Xie (Jade Dust).
Bie Shuo stated: Respectfully consulting Tu Jing, Li Yu from Yizhou is actually bright yellow stone. Generally, what distinguishes jade from stone is its hardness and grain structure, resisting damage by fire or blades. The current yellow stone from Yizhou, though locally forced to be named Li Yu, is light and small, easily carved by knives, identical in nature to Bai Shi (White Stone) from Jiazhou but differing in color; thus, it is likely insufficient to be classified among various jades.
Yan Yi stated: Regarding Yu Quan, the Classics say it grows in Lantian valleys and can be harvested anytime. However, currently, there is no Yu Quan in Lantian valleys. Springs are never described as being "harvested" in ancient or modern texts. It also says "consume five jin," yet ancient and modern prescriptions measure water by volume, not weight (jin). It also says "also known as Yu Zha." Thus, it is unclear what specific substance this refers to. Various interpretations remain uncertain. Although Tao Hongjing said it could be melted into water, hence the name Yu Quan, if true, it should be called Yu Shui (Jade Water), not Yu Quan. The term "Quan" implies flowing and spreading; differentiated, it implies universal penetration. The I Ching also says: "Spring emerges from beneath the mountain, indicating Meng (Innocence)." Thus, it is indeed not stagnant water. This discrepancy may stem from textual corruption or omission over time. Collecting jade to make paste is undoubtedly correct. Moreover, many book chapters have been lost; considering the Ben Cao (Materia Medica) predates Emperor Yao, such errors are not surprising. Some versions mistakenly write "She Quan" instead of "Yu Quan." The Tang Ben Cao annotation notes: The character "Quan" (All/Complete) might be a typo for "He" (Combine); Tao saw the erroneous version and changed it to "Han" (Contain), showing uncertainty. Later, Tie Jiang (Iron Slurry) shares similar semantic issues. Additionally, Daoist Canon mentions "Golden Rice and Jade Nectar," and Li Shangyin of the Tang Dynasty wrote "Before drinking the nectar, it forms ice," confirming that jade can indeed be processed into paste. There is also a Yu Quan Temple in the jurisdiction of Jingmen Jun, containing a spring identical to ordinary springs, which cannot treat diseases, yet the temple uses this water daily. In Western Luoyang, there is Wan'an Mountain, with a temple named Yu Quan within its slopes. Having climbed this mountain twice to investigate the doubts regarding Yu Quan, the monks were ignorant and unable to answer. A stream in front of the temple supplies the temple. The spring source consists of bluestone, indistinguishable from well water. If following the alternative annotation that Yu Quan is the liquid essence of jade, with the best coming from immortal chambers, then no one in the world can obtain it, making the name arbitrary. Therefore, the alternative annotation is unacceptable. Furthermore, Yan Yu (Yan Jade) comes from north of Yan; its texture is soft and brittle, like oil mixed with pink powder, it is not used in medicine, but should be appended here.
