【校正】自有名未用移入此。
【释名】 日（与运日同。《别录》）、同力鸟（陶弘景）。
【集解】《别录》曰∶鸩生南海。
弘景曰∶鸩与 日是两种。鸩鸟状如孔雀，五色杂斑，高硕，黑颈赤喙，出广之深山中。
日，状如黑伧鸡，作声似云同力，故江东人呼为同力鸟。并啖蛇，人误食其肉立死，并疗
蛇毒。昔人用鸩毛为毒酒，故名鸩酒，顷不复尔。又海中有物赤色，状如龙，名海姜，亦有
大毒，甚于鸩羽。
恭曰∶鸠鸟商州以南江岭间大有，人皆谙识，其肉腥有毒不堪啖。
云羽画酒杀人，亦是浪证。按玉篇引郭璞云∶鸩大如雕，长颈赤喙，食蛇。《说文》《广
雅》《淮南子》皆以鸩为 日。交广人亦云 日即鸩，一名同力鸟，更无如孔雀者。陶为人
所诳也。

(Pronounced "chen" with the departing tone. Listed as a lower-grade substance in *Bie Lu* [Separate Records of Famous Physicians].)
[Correction] Previously excluded due to having a name but no usable material; now transferred here.
[Names] Yunri (Same as Yunri. From *Bie Lu*), Tongli Niao (Tao Hongjing).
[Collected Explanations] *Bie Lu* states: The Zhen bird is produced in the Nanhai region.
Tao Hongjing said: The Zhen bird and the Yunri are two different birds. The Zhen bird resembles a peacock, with feathers mottled in five colors, tall and robust, with a black neck and red beak, found in the deep mountains of Guangzhou.
The Yunri resembles a black Cang chicken, making a sound similar to "Yun Tongli," hence people in Jiangdong call it the Tongli bird. Both feed on snakes; if humans mistakenly eat their meat, they die immediately, yet they can also treat snake venom. In the past, people used Zhen feathers to poison wine, hence the name "Zhen Wine," but this practice has ceased recently. Furthermore, there is a red creature in the sea resembling a dragon, named Hai Jiang (Sea Ginger), which also possesses great toxicity, exceeding that of Zhen feathers.
Su Gong said: The Jiu bird is abundant south of Shangzhou in the Jiangling region, and people are familiar with it. Its meat is fishy, toxic, and inedible.
The claim that painting wine with its feathers kills people is also an absurd fabrication. According to *Yu Pian* citing Guo Pu: The Zhen bird is as large as a vulture, with a long neck and red beak, feeding on snakes. *Shuo Wen*, *Guang Ya*, and *Huainanzi* all identify the Zhen as the Yunri. People in Jiaozhou and Guangzhou also say the Yunri is the Zhen, another name for the Tongli bird, and not resembling a peacock at all. Tao Hongjing was deceived by others.
Li Shizhen said: According to *Er Ya Yi*: The Zhen bird resembles an eagle but is larger, shaped like a kite, purple-black in color, with a red beak and black eyes, and a neck seven or eight inches long. The male is called Yunri, and the female Yin Xie. When the Yunri cries, the weather is clear; when the Yin Xie cries, it rains. It eats snakes and acorns. Knowing that snakes are under trees or stones, it performs the Yu Bu (Great Yu's Step) to exorcise them; soon after, wood falls and stones collapse, revealing the snake. If the snake enters its mouth, it rots instantly. Its feces and urine falling on stones cause the stones to turn yellow and rot. Wherever it drinks, all insects drinking the water die. Only Rhinoceros Horn (Xijiao) can resolve its toxicity. Additionally, Yang Lianfu's *Tieya Ji* states: The Zhen bird is produced in the Huangmei mountains of Qizhou, resembling a Xunhu fox, with a sound like beating a waist drum. It nests at the top of large trees.
[Flavor and Toxicity] Highly toxic. Enters the five zang organs, causing corrosion and death (*Bie Lu*).
[Therapeutic Actions] Wearing it kills pit viper venom (*Bie Lu*).
Li Shizhen said: For human bites from snakes, scraping the powder and applying it externally results in immediate healing.
