[Verified Case] This stone is not reported to occur in the Jinan Mount Tai area. Currently, it is found in Lushi County of Guozhou, Lingchuan County of Zezhou, and Lüxiang County of Cizhou. Its color and texture are fresh and fine, making it suitable for medicinal use. It is also found in mountains of various prefectures. Among these five litharges, there is also Shigu (Stone Bone), which resembles bone, is hard and lustrous like jade, and its efficacy when consumed surpasses that of Zhongru (Gypsum Fibrosum).

It primarily nourishes Spleen Qi, calms the Five Zang Organs, regulates the Middle Jiao, treats diarrhea and dysentery in adults and children, intestinal parasites, pus and blood in stool, removes white worms, clears jaundice, and treats carbuncles and insect toxins. Long-term consumption lightens the body and prolongs life. It grows on Songgao Mountain, with a color resembling that of young orioles; it can be harvested at any time.
Zengqing (Azurite) serves as its guiding herb. It is incompatible with Xixin (Asari Radix et Rhizoma) and fears Feilian (Blatta orientalis).
Baishizhi (White Litharge), sweet and sour in taste, neutral in nature, non-toxic. It primarily nourishes Lung Qi, thickens the intestines, replenishes marrow, treats insufficiency of palpitations and fright from the Five Zang Organs, mental restlessness below the heart, stops abdominal pain and watery diarrhea, treats heat-induced loose stools and pus/blood in stool from the Small Intestine, metrorrhagia and metrostaxis, and red/white vaginal discharge in women, and expels carbuncles, sores, and hemorrhoids. Long-term consumption calms the mind, suppresses hunger, lightens the body, and promotes longevity. It grows on the north side of Mount Tai; it can be harvested at any time.
When combined with Houpo (Magnoliae Officinalis Cortex) and taken with rice water, it stops pus in stool. Yanshi (Stercus Hirundinis) serves as its guiding herb. It is incompatible with Songzhi (Pini Resina) and fears Huangqin (Scutellariae Radix).
[Verified Case] Baishizhi currently produced in the mountains of Cizhou is superior to that from other places. It is not reported to exist on the left side of Mount Tai.
