今以桑上者为真，不用松上者，此互有异同耳。
味甘，性寒，无毒。主治因劳损导致的五脏虚损及极度虚弱，身体消瘦，妇女崩漏，脉象微弱欲绝，具有补益虚损、益气的作用。能清除肺中的水气，止住咳血，缓解热病口渴、水肿、腹部胀满、头部胀痛，通利水道，去除寸白虫（绦虫），还可以用于缝合伤口。采集时间没有固定限制。但出土上部的桑根白皮有毒，会致人死亡。续断、桂心、麻子是它的引经药。桑叶，主治消除寒热症状，发汗。桑叶汁，能解蜈蚣毒。
桑耳，味甘，有毒。黑色的桑耳，主治妇女赤白带下，血病，症瘕积聚（腹内结块），腹痛，阴阳失调引起的不孕，治疗久泻不止，益气且不感到饥饿。金色的桑耳，治疗痹症和饮邪，积聚，腹部疾病，金创（金属利器造成的创伤）。
桑耳又名桑茵，又名木麦。五种木耳中，有一种名为“榼”（此处原文可能有缺字或异体字，指特定种类木耳），能益气不饥，轻身强志。生长在犍为的山谷中。在六月多雨时采集木耳，然后晒干。
向东生长的桑根比较容易得到，而江边的桑树根部多出土面部分，不可轻信其药用价值。关于桑耳，《断谷方》中说：木菌又被称为桑上寄生，这里说的是五木耳，但没有明确说明是哪四种？查考老桑树上生长的干燥木耳，有黄色、红色、白色的，又多雨时也会生长出软湿的，人们采集后做成腌菜食用，都已经不再作为药用。
【谨案】柠耳，人们经常食用；槐耳，用于治疗痔疮；榆耳、柳耳、桑耳，这称为五耳，柔软的都可以食用。桑椹，味甘，性寒，无毒，单独食用，主治消渴症；桑叶，味苦、甘，性寒，有小毒。用水煎煮灰烬等物，可以共同消除痣疵黑子，腐蚀恶肉。煮小豆，能强力消除水胀。敷于金创处可止血，促进肌肉生长。
味苦、甘，性平，无毒。主治愤怒产生的邪气，止住虚汗，疏风散热，治疗女子阴部寒冷肿痛，治疗痰热，温疟，可以作为催吐汤剂，通利水道。又名女萝。生长在熊耳山川谷的松树上。五月采集，阴干。
东山地区很多，生长在杂树上，但以生长在松树上的为真品。《毛诗》说：“茑与女萝，施于松上。”茑是寄生植物，现在以生长在桑树上的为真品，不用生长在松树上的，这是两者互有异同之处。
Sweet in taste, cold in nature, non-toxic. Primarily treats five labors and six extremes caused by overstrain, emaciation, metrorrhagia (uterine bleeding), pulselessness (extremely faint pulse), tonifies deficiency, and benefits qi. Clears water-qi from the lungs, stops hemoptysis (coughing up blood), relieves heat-induced thirst, edema, abdominal fullness, cranial distension, promotes urination, expels Taenia saginata (pork tapeworm/Inch-white worm), and can be used for suturing wounds. Harvesting time is unrestricted. However, the part of the root above the soil is toxic and can cause death. Duanxuan (Radix Dipsaci), Guixin (Cortex Cinnamomi), and Maziren (Semen Cannabis) are its guiding herbs. The leaves primarily treat chills and fever, and induce sweating. The juice detoxifies centipede venom.
Sang'er (Fomes Officinalis growing on Mulberry), sweet in taste, toxic. The black variety primarily treats leukorrhea with red and white discharge in women, blood disorders, zheng jia ji ju (masses and accumulations), abdominal pain, infertility due to yin-yang imbalance and alternating chills and fever, treats chronic diarrhea, benefits qi, and prevents hunger. The golden variety treats bi syndrome (painful obstruction) and fluid retention, accumulations, abdominal diseases, and traumatic injuries.
Also known as Sangyin or Mai. Among the five types of wood ear mushrooms, one type named "Ke" benefits qi, prevents hunger, lightens the body, and strengthens willpower. It grows in the valleys of Jianwei. Harvest the wood ear mushrooms during the rainy season in June, then dry them in the shade.
Mulberry roots growing towards the east are easier to obtain, while those by the river often have exposed upper parts; their medicinal value should not be readily trusted. Regarding Sang'er, the *Duan Gu Fang* states that wood fungus is also called "parasite on mulberry." Here it refers to the five types of wood ear mushrooms but does not specify which four others. According to records, dry fungi growing on old mulberry trees come in yellow, red, and white varieties, and soft, wet ones grow during heavy rains. People harvest these to make pickles, and they are no longer used medicinally.
[Editor's Note] Ning'er is commonly eaten; Huai'er is used to treat hemorrhoids; Yu'er, Liu'er, and Sang'er constitute the "five ears," all of which are edible if soft. Sangshen (Mulberry Fruit), sweet in taste, cold in nature, non-toxic. Consumed alone, it treats xiao ke (wasting-thirst syndrome). The leaves, bitter and sweet in taste, cold in nature, slightly toxic. Ash from water-boiled preparations can remove nevi and dark spots, and cauterize malignant flesh. Boiling adzuki beans effectively reduces water swelling. Applied to traumatic injuries, it stops bleeding and promotes tissue regeneration.
Bitter and sweet in taste, neutral in nature, non-toxic. Primarily treats pathogenic qi arising from anger, stops spontaneous sweating, dispels wind-heat, treats cold painful swelling in the female genitalia, resolves phlegm-heat, treats warm malaria, can be used as an emetic decoction, and promotes urination. Also known as Nuluo. It grows on pine trees in the valleys of Xiong'er Mountain. Harvest in May and dry in the shade.
It is abundant in the eastern mountains, growing on various trees, but those on pine trees are considered authentic. The *Classic of Poetry* states: "Niao and Nuluo spread upon the pine." Niao is a parasitic plant. Currently, the variety growing on mulberry trees is considered authentic, while the pine-growing variety is not used. This reflects differences between the two traditions.
