[Mianjiao / Vine Pepper]
Bitter in taste, warm in nature, non-toxic. Primarily treats wind-cold-damp bi syndrome (painful obstruction caused by invasion of wind, cold, and damp pathogens into meridians and joints), lijie pain (severe joint pain traversing the body), dispels qi stagnation causing cold limbs, and treats knee pain. Also known as Shijiao, Zhu Jiao, Zhi Jiao, and Gou Jiao. Grows in river valleys and between hills and tombs in the Yunzhong region. The stems and roots are harvested, boiled, and used to brew wine.
Tao Hongjing stated: It is found everywhere in mountains and wilds, commonly called [missing character], resembling Sichuan pepper, [missing character] (pronounced 'dang'), but smaller and less fragrant. Also known as [missing character] jiao. It can be used in steaming treatments to induce sweating (diaphoresis).
The *Tu Jing Ben Cao* has detailed records under the entry for Shu Jiao (Sichuan Pepper).
For dietary therapy: It primarily treats spasticity and urgency caused by thief-wind (pathogenic wind).
[Tujue Bai / Turkic White Substance]
Sweet in taste, neutral in nature, non-toxic. Harmonizes the middle jiao, benefits qi, treats diseases of the five zang organs, promotes circulation of blood and qi, resolves various heat conditions, stops thirst, eliminates irritability, and treats kidney qi rebellion (rebellious kidney qi rising upward). It resembles Mu Fang Ji (Stephania tetrandra). It grows in the mountain valleys of Jiangnan. It is as large as a chicken egg; when the vine is cut, blowing air into one end causes juice to flow out, which is sweet and delicious like honey. Fresh leaves are ground and applied externally to sores from snake or insect bites. Also known as Gan Teng. Since 'Gan' (sweet) and 'Gan' (feel/sense) sound similar, it is also named Tian Teng (Sweet Vine). (Newly supplemented content appears in the works of Chen Cangqi and Ri Huazi.)
Non-toxic. Primarily treats toxicity resulting from donkey or horse blood entering the flesh. Apply hot compresses using fire-heated materials. Alternatively, boil the material and soak the affected area. The resin within its wood, also known as Cheng Ru, is used in the formulation of He Zhi Han (Composite Sweat-Inducing Powder). It grows in the sandy lands of Hexi. The bark is reddish, and the leaves are fine. (Currently appended)
Minister Yuxi et al. respectfully note that the commentary on *Erya* states: Cheng, also known as Heliu (River Willow). Guo Pu's annotation says: Currently, small poplars with red stems growing by the river. Lu Ji said: Grows beside water, the bark color is... The *Tu Jing Ben Cao* has detailed records under the entry for Liu Hua (Willow Flower).
*Yanyi* states: Chichengmu (Red Cheng Wood), also called Sanchunliu (Three-Spring Willow), because it flowers and fruits three times a year. The fleshy part of the flower is red, forming slender spikes. In the Hexi region, Rong people use its smooth branches as whips; they are also very common in the capital.
[Bitter Variety / Continuation]
Bitter in taste. Primarily treats metal wounds (lacerations from sharp instruments), promotes tissue regeneration, stops bleeding, tonifies the waist, and reconnects tendons. Originates from the Turkic state, white in color like ash, said to be synthesized from Duanshi (Smelted Iron Stone) mixed with other herbs. Barbarians use it to treat metal wounds, and Chinese people also use it.
Among current physicians, the variety seen to be effective originates from Luzhou. Its root is yellowish-white, resembling Fuling (Poria cocos) but spongy and soft. The sprout is three to four chi tall; in spring and summer, the leaves resemble Bohe (Mint). The flowers resemble Convolvulus (Morning Glory) but are purple, with white ridges on top. The roots are harvested in February and August and dried in the sun. (Currently appended)
