【紫真檀】
味咸，性微寒。主治恶毒、风毒等病症。
陶弘景说：普通人用它摩擦后涂抹于风毒引起的各种肿胀处，也有效。但效果不如青木香。此外还能治疗金创出血，也可用于治疗淋证。
《新修本草》注解说：这种物产出于昆仑盘盘国。虽然不在中原地区生长，但在民间普遍存在。臣禹锡等人谨按日华子的说法：紫檀树……（此处原文有缺漏或错简，结合下文陈藏器及功效推断）……出自海南。除原有功效外，还能治疗心腹疼痛、霍乱、中恶、鬼气，并能杀虫。《外台秘要》记载其止血止痛效果极佳。凡是包扎疮口，应用旧布帛，松紧适度，像系衣带那样即可。《千金方》：治疗一切肿。将紫檀细碎，用大醋调和敷在肿胀处。梅师方：治疗金创止血。迅速刮取真紫檀粉末，敷于伤口上。
【乌臼木根皮】
味苦，性微温，有毒。主治暴水病、症结积聚。产于山南平原沼泽地带。
《新修本草》注解说：树木高达数仞，叶子像梨叶、杏叶。花黄白色。果实黑色。现在参考陈藏器的《本草》，说乌臼叶适合用来染皂。子实多取来压榨成油，涂头可使头发变黑或变白，点灯非常明亮。服用一合，会让人腹泻，排出阴下水湿。（此条原附于唐本之后）臣禹锡等人谨按日华子的说法：乌臼根皮，性凉。治疗头风，通利大小便。需用慢火炙烤至脂汁流尽，呈黄色干燥后方可使用。《斗门方》：治疗大便不通。取乌臼木一段长约一寸，劈开，用水煎取小半盏药液，服用后立即通畅。不要多吃。其功效神奇，兼能取水。《衍义》说：乌臼，叶子像小的杏叶，但更薄且绿色较淡。果实八、九月成熟，初为青色后变黑，分为三瓣。取子出油，用于燃灯和染发。
【南藤】
味辛，性温，无毒。主治风血病，补益衰老，起阳，强腰脚，祛除痹症，使白发变黑（注：原文“变白”在此语境下通常指去黑须或返老还童之意，亦有版本作“变黑”，依原文直译为变白，但结合“补衰老”、“起阳”多为抗衰老，此处保留原文字面意思，或理解为去除老年斑/白发之效，视具体医理而定，此处暂译字面），驱逐冷气，排除风邪。既可以煮汁服用，也可以浸泡酒中。冬季使用。生长在南方树上，所以叫南藤，茎像马鞭一样有节，呈紫褐色。又名丁公藤。产于南山山谷。《南史》记载：解叔谦是雁门人。他的母亲生病，夜晚在庭院中磕头祈祷，听到空中有人说：得到丁公藤治疗就会痊愈。寻访医生和本草书籍都没有记载。到了宜都山中，看见一位老翁砍伐树木，说是丁公藤，治疗风疾。于是拜别哭泣求得此药及浸酒的方法。学完后，失去了老翁的踪迹。母亲的病于是痊愈。（此条今附于此）
《图经》说：南藤就是丁公藤。产于南山山谷，现在出产于泉州、荣州。生长在南方树上，所以名叫南藤。苗像马鞭有节，紫褐色，叶子像杏叶但尖端。采集没有固定时间。这下面还有关于千金藤的记载：生长在北方地区的根大如手指，颜色黑得像漆。生长在南方土地的，黄红色像细辛。又有XX藤子，生长在广南山林间。木头像通草藤，三年才成熟，紫黑色。又名象豆。现在的医生很少使用，所以只是附记在其类中。
陈藏器说气味辛烈，也可以磨碎服用。能使白发变黑不老，出产于蓝田。八月采集，晒干后使用。
[Zizhen Tan (Purple Sandalwood)]
Salty in taste, slightly cold in nature. Primarily treats malignant toxins and wind toxins.
Tao Hongjing stated: Common people rub it and apply it to various swellings caused by wind toxins, which is also effective. However, it is not as effective as Qingmuxiang (Indigofera tinctoria root). It also stops bleeding from traumatic injuries and can be used to treat strangury.
The annotation of Xinxiu Bencao notes: This substance originates from the Panpan Kingdom near Kunlun. Although it does not grow in Central China, it is widely available among the people. Ministers Yu Xi et al. respectfully followed the statement of Ri Hua Zi: Purple sandalwood trees... [text missing/corrupted in source] ... originate from Hainan. In addition to its original functions, it treats heart and abdominal pain, cholera, sudden evil qi attacks, ghostly qi, kills parasites, and expels toxins. Waitai Miyao records that its hemostatic and analgesic effects are excellent. For wrapping bandages on sores, old cloth or silk should be used, neither too loose nor too tight, just like tying a belt. Qianjin Fang: Treats all kinds of swellings. Crush purple sandalwood finely, mix with strong vinegar, and apply to the swollen area. Mei Shi Fang: Treats traumatic bleeding. Quickly scrape powder from authentic purple sandalwood and apply to the wound.
[Wujiu Genpi (Root Bark of Sapium sebiferum)]
Bitter in taste, slightly warm in nature, toxic. Primarily treats acute water retention, masses, and accumulations. Grows in the plains and marshes south of the mountains.
The annotation of Xinxiu Bencao notes: The tree grows several ren high, leaves resemble those of pear or apricot. Flowers are yellowish-white. Fruits are black. Currently referring to Chen Cangqi's Bencao, it states that Wujiu leaves are suitable for dyeing soap. Seeds are pressed for oil, applied to hair to turn it black or white, and burns very brightly as lamp oil. Taking one he of it causes diarrhea, expelling damp-water from the yin regions. (Originally attached to Tang Ben) Ministers Yu Xi et al. respectfully followed the statement of Ri Hua Zi: Wujiu root bark is cool in nature. Treats head wind, unblocks urination and defecation. Must be roasted over slow fire until the oily juice is exhausted and it turns yellow and dry before use. Doumen Fang: Treats constipation. Take a piece of Wujiu wood about one cun long, split it, decoct in water to obtain half a small cup of liquid, take it, and bowel movement will immediately clear. Do not consume too much. Its efficacy is miraculous, and it can also extract water. Yan Yi states: Wujiu leaves resemble small apricot leaves but are thinner and paler green. Fruits ripen in August and September, initially green then turning black, splitting into three valves. Oil is extracted from seeds for lamps and hair dyeing.
[Nanteng (Southern Vine / Dinggong Teng)]
Pungent in taste, warm in nature, non-toxic. Primarily treats wind-blood disorders, tonifies against senility, raises yang, strengthens waist and legs, removes bi-syndrome, whitens hair (note: text says "bian bai", context implies anti-aging/hair care), expels cold qi, and dispels wind pathogens. Can be decocted in water for drinking or soaked in wine. Used in winter. Grows on southern trees, hence named Nanteng. Stems resemble horse whips with nodes, purple-brown in color. Also known as Dinggong Teng. Grows in mountain valleys of the South. Nan Shi records: Xie Shuqian was from Yanmen. His mother fell ill; at night, he kowtowed and prayed in the courtyard, hearing a voice from the sky say: If you obtain Dinggong Teng, she will recover. He consulted doctors and materia medica but found no record. Going to Yidu Mountains, he saw an old man felling trees, who said it was Dinggong Teng for treating wind diseases. He bowed, wept, and obtained the herb and the method for soaking it in wine. After learning, the old man disappeared. His mother's illness was cured. (Now attached here).
Tu Jing states: Nanteng is Dinggong Teng. Grows in mountain valleys of the South, currently produced in Quanzhou and Rongzhou. Grows on southern trees, hence the name. Vines resemble horse whips with nodes, purple-brown, leaves resemble apricot leaves but pointed. Harvest time is unspecified. Below this, there is another entry for Qianjinteng: Those growing in northern regions have roots as thick as fingers, black as lacquer. Those growing in southern soils are yellow-red like Xixin (Asarum). There is also [missing character] Tengzi, growing in the forests of southern Guangnan. The wood resembles Tongcao vines, taking three years to mature, purple-black. Also known as Xiangdou. Current physicians rarely use it, so it is merely appended to this category.
Chen Cangqi states: The taste and odor are pungent and strong; it can also be ground and taken orally. It prevents aging and whitens hair, originating from Lantian. Harvested in August, dried, and used.
