Acrid, neutral, non-toxic. Brightens the eyes and strengthens the teeth, cools blood and expels wind. Resolves headache and cephalalgia caused by wind-cold, eliminates bi-syndrome of sinews and bones with spasms and contracture. Promotes hair growth and unblocks orifices. Contraindicated in deficiency-type headaches and those with Spleen-Stomach Qi deficiency.
Grown abundantly in Bianjing, Qinzhou, Longzhou, Mingzhou, and Yuezhou. The stems and vines extend over one zhang (approx. 3.3 meters). In spring, small leaves sprout on old branches; by the fifth lunar month, leaves are fully formed, resembling Prunus salicina (Liye, 李叶) leaves. In the seventh month, fruits appear with black spots, about the size of Firmum Juglandis Semen (Wutongzi, 梧桐子) but hollow and light.
For headwind pain, soak the fruit in wine for seven days and take orally. (Verified Formula No. 1.)
