以蓼实为引经药，忌与桔梗、防风、防己同用。现在出产于邻近道路各山中大树，果实初熟未干时呈赤色，像胡颓子一样，也可以食用。干燥后，果皮很薄，应当连同核一起使用。
（吴茱萸）味辛，性温或大热，有小毒。主治温中降气，止痛止咳逆，治疗寒热，除湿血痹，驱逐风邪，开泄腠理，去除体内实邪不消，中恶邪，心腹痛，气逆，利五脏。根部能杀三虫。根白皮能杀蛲虫，治疗喉痹咳逆，止泄泻，食积不消，女子产后余血未尽。治疗白癣。又名 。生长在上谷川谷及宛朐等地。九月九日采集，阴干。
以蓼实为引经药，忌与丹参、硝石、白垩同用，畏紫石英。这就是现在的食茱萸。《礼记》中也称为 ，而民间俗称其为KT子，大概是因为不识“ ”字，因字形似“ ”字，所以仍沿袭相传。其根向南行、向东生长的品质较好。道家去除三尸的方剂中也使用它。
〔谨案〕《尔雅·释木》说：椒类中有 丑。陆氏《草木疏》说：椒类中也有 名，陶弘景搞错了。
（秦皮）味苦，性微寒或大寒，无毒。主治风寒湿痹，凛凛寒气，除热，治疗眼中青翳白膜。治疗男子少精，妇人带下，小儿痫病，身热。可以制作洗眼汤。长期服用头发不会变白，身体轻健，皮肤光泽，体态丰满且有子嗣。又名岑皮、石檀。生长在庐江川谷及宛朐等地。二月、八月采集树皮，阴干。
以大戟为引经药，忌与吴茱萸同用。俗传说是樊 皮，用水浸泡后和墨，书写青色不脱落，彻青，而且也很薄，恐怕不是这样。世俗方剂中只用来治疗眼疾。道术家中也有使用的地方。
〔谨案〕这棵树像檀树。叶子细长，皮上有白点但不粗糙交错。取皮用水浸泡就变成碧绿色，写在纸上看都是青色的是正确的。俗人见其味苦，称为苦树，也使用其皮，治疗眼睛有效。因为叶子像檀树，所以名叫石檀。

It primarily treats evil qi under the heart, alternating chills and fever, warms the middle jiao (middle energizer), expels cold-dampness bi syndrome (painful obstruction due to cold and dampness), eliminates three parasites (intestinal parasitic worms), clears wind evil from the intestines and stomach, treats chills and fever, hernia and mass (abdominal masses), head wind, fluctuating wind pathogen, nasal congestion, yellow eyes, deafness, dull complexion, warms the middle, directs qi downward, induces sweating, strengthens yin, benefits essence, calms the spirit, and promotes smooth bowel movements. Long-term use makes the body light, improves vision, enhances strength, and prolongs life. Also known as Shuzao (Shu Date), Jizu (Chicken Foot), Siyi, and Shi. Grows in valleys of Hanzhong and in Langya, Wanqu, and Cheng County of Donghai. Fruits are harvested in September and October and dried in the shade.
Polygoni Multiflori Caulis (Lianxu) serves as the guiding herb; it is incompatible with Platycodonis Radix (Jiegeng), Saposhnikoviae Radix (Fangfeng), and Atractylodis Dispersae Radix (Fangji). Currently found on large trees in mountains near various routes, the fruits are red when first ripe but not yet dry, resembling Pittosporum Tobira (Hutui Zi), and are edible. After drying, the peel is very thin, and the fruit should be used whole including the seed.
(Evodiae Fructus) Pungent in flavor, warm or extremely hot in nature, slightly toxic. It primarily warms the middle, directs qi downward, alleviates pain, stops coughing and rebellious qi, treats chills and fever, removes dampness and blood bi syndrome, expels wind evil, opens the interstices (cou li), eliminates excess pathogens that do not dissipate, treats sudden evil invasion, epigastric and abdominal pain, rebellious qi, and benefits the five zang organs.

It treats tinea alba (white ringworm). Also known as . Grows in valleys of Shanggu and Wanqu. Harvested on the ninth day of the ninth lunar month and dried in the shade.
Polygoni Multiflori Caulis (Lianxu) serves as the guiding herb; it is incompatible with Salviae Miltiorrhizae Radix (Danshen), Natrii Sulfas (Xiaoshi), and Kaolin (Baie), and fears Fluorite (Zishiyinqing). This is the current edible Evodia. The "Book of Rites" also refers to it as , while folk custom calls it KTzi, likely due to ignorance of the character , mistaking it for a similar-looking character, thus perpetuating the name. Roots growing southward or eastward are considered superior. It is also used in Daoist formulas to eliminate the three corpses (three worms causing illness).
[Note] "Erya: Shi Mu" states: Among pepper-like trees, there is Chou. Lu's "Caomu Shu" states: Among pepper-like plants, there is also a name ; Tao Hongjing was mistaken.
(Qinpi) Bitter in flavor, slightly cold or extremely cold in nature, non-toxic. It primarily treats wind-cold-dampness bi syndrome, chilling cold sensation, clears heat, and treats green nebula and white membrane in the eyes. It treats oligospermia in men, leukorrhea in women, pediatric epilepsy, and febrile disease. It can be prepared as an eye-washing decoction. Long-term use prevents graying of hair, makes the body light, gives luster to the skin, promotes robust physique, and ensures fertility. Also known as Cenpi and Shitan. Grows in valleys of Lujiang and Wanqu. Bark is harvested in February and August and dried in the shade.
Manihoti Radix (Daji) serves as the guiding herb; it is incompatible with Evodiae Fructus (Wuzhuyu). Folklore claims it is Fan bark, which turns blue-green when soaked in water and mixed with ink, writing remains un-faded, is thoroughly blue-green, and is quite thin, which is likely incorrect. In secular prescriptions, it is only used to treat eye diseases. Daoist practitioners also have uses for it.
[Note] This tree resembles Dalbergia (Tan). Leaves are slender, bark has white spots but is not rough or cracked. Taking the bark and soaking it in water yields a jade-green color; those written on paper appearing cyan are correct. Laypeople, seeing its bitter taste, call it Kushu (Bitter Tree) and also use its bark, which is effective for treating eyes. Because the leaves resemble Tan, it is named Shitan.
