味酸，性温或微寒，无毒。主治气癃（小便不通），不能排尿，妇女月经闭止，血瘕（腹内结块），癫痫，寒热往来，通利水道。又名负蟠（音烦），一名（音伊芳）（音威），一名。生于魏郡平谷及人家地面，五月五日采集。
陶隐居说：又名鼠负，说老鼠多在坎陷之处，背部背着它，现在写作“妇”字，似乎违背事理。又名为鼠姑。
臣禹锡等谨按蜀本注云：《尔雅》说，蟠就是鼠负。多生在瓮器底部及土坑中，常常附着在老鼠背上，所以叫这个名字。民间也称之为鼠粘，就像耳垢一样，名字像羊负来。日华子说：鼠妇虫有毒。能通利小便，能导致堕胎。
图经说：鼠妇，生于魏郡平谷及人家地面，如今到处都有。多在下湿处瓮器底部及土坑中，常常附着在……威，委黍。《诗经·东山》说：“威在室内。”郑玄笺注说：这种生物家里无人居住就会生长。然而《神农本草经》也有这个名称，是治疗寒热的。
千金方：治疗产后小便不利。鼠妇七枚单味药，炒焦研成屑，用酒调服一次。
衍义说：鼠妇，这是湿生的虫子，多足，颜色像蚯蚓，背上有横纹皱起，大的长三、四分，到处都有，砖缝及下湿处较多，使用的人极少。
味辛，微温，无毒。主治明目，小儿火疮，伤热气，蛊毒，鬼疰（一种传染性痨病），通神精。又名夜光，一名放光，一名熠（以入切）（以灼切），一名即（音照）。生于阶地池泽。七月七日采集，阴干。
陶隐居说：这是腐草及烂竹根所化，起初还不像虫子，腹部下面已有光亮，几天后就变化并能飞行了。方术家捕捉后放入酒中，令其死后再晒干，俗医使用也很少。臣禹锡等谨按蜀本注云：《尔雅》说，萤火就是……。《注》说，夜间飞行，腹部下有火光，按此虫是朽草所化。《吕氏春秋》说：腐草化为萤就是这样。药性论说：萤火，也可以单用，治疗青盲（视力减退或失明）。
衍义说：萤，常在大暑前后飞出，是得大火之气而化，所以如此明亮照耀，现在人使用得少。《月令》虽然说是腐草所化，然而如果不是阴湿之处终究不会生成。

Actions: Treats Qi Long (obstruction of urination), inability to void urine, amenorrhea in women, Xue Jia (blood masses in the abdomen), epilepsy, alternating chills and fever, and promotes the flow of water passages. Also known as Fu Pan (pronounced "fan"), Yi Fang (pronounced "yi fang"), Wei (pronounced "wei"). Grows in Pinggu, Wei Commandery, and on the ground of households; collected on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month.
Tao Hongjing states: It is also called Shu Fu (Mouse Carrying), saying that mice are often found in depressions, carrying it on their backs. The current character "Fu" (Woman) seems inconsistent with reason. It is also named Shu Gu.
Chen Yuxi et al., according to the Shu Edition Annotation: The *Erya* states that Pan is Shu Fu. It is mostly found at the bottom of jars and earthen pits, often clinging to the backs of mice, hence the name. Common people also call it Shu Nian (Mouse Sticking), similar to earwax, named Yang Fu Lai (Sheep Carrying). Ri Huazi states: Shu Fu insect is toxic. It promotes urination and can induce abortion.
Tu Jing states: Shu Fu grows in Pinggu, Wei Commandery, and on household grounds; it is now available everywhere. It is mostly found at the bottom of jars in damp places and in earthen pits, often clinging to... Wei, Wei Shu. The *Book of Songs · Dong Shan* says: "Wei is in the room." Zheng Xuan's commentary states: This creature arises when a house is unoccupied. However, the *Shennong Ben Cao Jing* also has this name, indicating its use for treating alternating chills and fever.
Qianjin Fang: For treating difficult urination postpartum. Seven pieces of Shu Fu, used alone, roasted into powder, taken once mixed with wine.
Yanyi states: Shu Fu is a worm born from dampness, with many legs, colored like an earthworm, with raised transverse wrinkles on its back. The large ones are three to four fen long. They are found everywhere, more so in brick crevices and damp places, but are rarely used.
Yinghuo (Fireflies)

Collected on the seventh day of the seventh lunar month, dried in the shade.
Tao Hongjing states: These are transformed from rotting grass and rotten bamboo roots. Initially, they do not look like insects, but there is already light under their bellies. After a few days, they transform and can fly. Alchemists capture them, place them in wine until dead, then dry them. Folk physicians rarely use them. Chen Yuxi et al., according to the Shu Edition Annotation: The *Erya* states that Ying Huo is... The annotation says: Flies at night, with firelight under the belly. According to this, the insect is transformed from rotten grass. The *Lüshi Chunqiu* states: Rotting grass transforms into fireflies. *Xing Ming Lun* states: Ying Huo can be used alone to treat Qing Mang (blindness).
Yanyi states: Fireflies often emerge around the Great Heat solar term, transformed by the Qi of the great fire, thus shining brightly. They are rarely used nowadays. Although the *Monthly Ordinances* state they are transformed from rotting grass, they ultimately do not arise without yin-damp places.
