This is the material used by people in the south to make paper; medical practitioners only use it for preparing medicines to stop down-flowing disorders (diarrhea/dysentery).
[Note] This substance is aquatic moss, now collected to make paper, named "moss paper," with a greenish-yellow color and astringent texture. The *Duanju Fang* states: "It is coarse moss growing in water." The *Fan Dongyang Fang* states: "It grows on stones in water, like hair, and those that are green are Celí." The pronunciation of Zhili and Celí is similar.
Wang Zinian's *Shiyi* records: Zhang Hua presented his *Bowuzhi* to Emperor Wu of Jin. Finding it too verbose, the Emperor ordered him to abridge it and bestowed upon Zhang Hua ten thousand sheets of Celí paper. Wang Zinian said: Celí paper is indeed Zhili paper. This paper is made from freshwater moss; due to linguistic corruption among the stream dwellers, it was called Celí.
Taste is sweet, nature is greatly cold, non-toxic. It primarily treats lacquer dermatitis, heat sores, and edema. Jingzhong Lan (Isatis Indigo Naturalis found in wells) can detoxify various poisons such as wild gelsemium and croton seeds.
Abandoned wells often grow abundant moss and duckweed, as well as weeds and vegetable indigo growing between bricks and soil. Since these possess detoxifying properties, those found in wells are superior; there should not be another distinct plant named "Jingzhong Lan." Mud at the bottom of wells is extremely cold and can also treat scalds and burns. Jinghua Water (first-drawn well water) is also used through ingestion and refining methods.
