一名落花生
甘温无毒。
发明 长生果产闽地，花落土中即生。从古无此，近始有之。味甘气香，能健脾胃，饮
食难消运者宜之。或云与黄瓜相反，予曾二者并食，未蒙其害，因表出之。
甘微咸温无毒。
发明 琐琐葡萄似葡萄而琐细，故有琐琐之名。生于漠北，南方间亦有之。其干类木，
而系藤本。其子生青、熟赤，干则紫黑。能摄精气归宿肾脏，与五味子功用不甚相远。凡藤
蔓之类，皆属于筋；草木之实，皆达于脏，不独此味为然。此物向供食品，不入汤药，故《
本草》不载。近时北人以之强肾，南人以之稀痘，各有攸宜。强肾方用琐琐葡萄、人参各一
钱，火酒浸一宿，侵晨涂手心、摩擦腰脊，能助膂力强壮。若卧时摩擦腰脊，力助阳事坚强
，服之尤为得力。稀痘方用琐琐葡萄一岁一钱，神黄豆一岁一粒，杵为细末，一阳夜蜜水调
服，并擦心窝腰眼，能助肾祛邪，以北地方物专助东南生气之不足也。然惟禀质素弱者用之
有益，若气壮偏阳者勿用，恐其助长淫火之毒也。
苦温，无毒。
发明 橡实消谷止痢，浓肠胃，令人强健，且能治痔漏脱肛。《千金方》治石痈坚硬如
石不作脓，用橡子一枚蘸醋，于石上磨汁涂之，干则易，不过十度即平。共壳为散及煮汁服
，止下痢并染须发。
落花生，又名长生果。
味甘，性温，无毒。
【发明】长生果产于福建等地，花朵凋谢后落入土中即生根发芽。古时候没有这种植物，近代才开始出现。它味道甘甜、气味芳香，能够健运脾胃，对于饮食难以消化、运化无力的人适宜食用。有人说它与黄瓜相克（相反），但我曾将两者一起食用，并未受到损害，因此特此说明以正视听。
葡萄（琐琐葡萄），味甘、微咸，性温，无毒。
【发明】琐琐葡萄外形像葡萄但颗粒细小，因此得名“琐琐”。它生长在漠北地区，南方偶尔也有生长。它的茎干类似树木，但属于藤本植物。它的果实未熟时呈青色，成熟后呈红色，干燥后变为紫黑色。它能够收敛精气并使其归于肾脏，功效与五味子（收敛固涩药）相近。凡是藤蔓类植物，都归属于筋；草木类的果实，都能通达脏腑，不仅仅只有这一种食物是这样。这种物品过去主要作为食品，不进入汤药使用，所以《本草》典籍中没有记载。近代北方人用它来强壮肾脏，南方人用它来预防天花（痘疹），各有其适宜的用途。强壮肾脏的方子：用琐琐葡萄、人参各一钱，用烈酒浸泡一夜，清晨涂抹于手心，摩擦腰脊部位，能够辅助增强体力、使身体强壮。如果在睡觉前摩擦腰脊，能辅助阳气功能使之坚强，服用此法尤为得力。预防天花的方子：用琐琐葡萄一岁年龄用一钱，神黄豆一岁年龄用一粒，捣碎成细末，在半夜时分用蜂蜜水调服，并同时擦拭心窝和腰部两侧（肾俞区域），能够辅助肾脏、祛除邪气，这是利用北方地产物专门补助东南方生气不足的方法。然而，只有先天体质虚弱的人使用才有益处，如果气血壮盛、偏于阳热体质的人不要使用，恐怕会助长淫火之毒。
橡实（橡树果实），味苦，性温，无毒。
【发明】橡实能消食化积、止住痢疾，浓密肠胃，使人强健，并且能治疗痔疮、瘘管及脱肛。《千金方》治疗石痈（坚硬如石的痈肿）坚硬如石且不化脓的情况，用一枚橡子蘸醋，在石头上磨出汁液涂敷患处，干了就更换，不超过十次即可平复。将其外壳研成散剂或煮汁服用，可止住下痢以及用于染发须。
Peanut, also known as Changsheng Guo (Longevity Nut).
Sweet in taste, warm in nature, non-toxic.
[Invention] Changsheng Guo is produced in Fujian and other regions; after the flowers fall into the soil, they sprout roots. This plant did not exist in ancient times and only appeared in recent history. Its taste is sweet and its aroma is fragrant; it can strengthen the Spleen and Stomach, making it suitable for those with difficulty digesting food or impaired transportation and transformation of dietary nutrients. Some claim it is incompatible with cucumber. I have consumed both together without adverse effects, thus stating this to clarify the matter.
Grape (Suosuo Grape), sweet and slightly salty in taste, warm in nature, non-toxic.
[Invention] Suosuo Grape resembles the common grape but has smaller berries, hence the name "Suosuo" (Tiny/Small). It grows in the northern deserts, and occasionally in the southern regions. Its stem resembles wood, yet it is a vine. The fruit is green when unripe, red when ripe, and turns purple-black when dried. It can consolidate essence and Qi, directing them to return to the Kidney; its function is not significantly different from that of Wuweizi (Schisandra Chinensis Fruit, a herb for astringency). Generally, plants of the vine family belong to the Sinews; fruits of herbs and trees can reach the Zang organs, and this substance is no exception. Historically, this item was used mainly as food and not in decoctions, so it was not recorded in the *Bencao* (Materia Medica) texts. In recent times, people in the North use it to strengthen the Kidneys, while people in the South use it to prevent smallpox (Douzhen); each has its appropriate application. For strengthening the Kidneys: use one qian of Suosuo Grape and one qian of Renshen (Ginseng Root), soak them in strong wine overnight, apply to the palms in the early morning, and rub the lower back and spine; this can assist in enhancing physical strength and robustness. If rubbed on the lower back and spine before sleep, it assists Yang functions to become firm and strong, making this method particularly effective. For preventing smallpox: use one qian of Suosuo Grape per year of age, and one Shenhuangdou (Divine Soybean) per year of age, grind into fine powder, take with honey water at midnight, and simultaneously rub the epigastrium and lumbar region; this assists the Kidney to expel pathogenic factors. This utilizes northern local products specifically to supplement the deficiency of Sheng Qi (Vital Energy) in the Southeast. However, it is beneficial only for those with constitutionally weak constitutions. Those with robust Qi and Blood or a Yang-excess constitution should not use it, lest it aggravate the toxicity of excessive Fire.
Acorn (Xiangshi), bitter in taste, warm in nature, non-toxic.
[Invention] Xiangshi aids digestion, stops dysentery, thickens the intestines and stomach, makes the person robust, and can treat hemorrhoids, fistulas, and rectal prolapse. The *Qianjin Fang* (Prescriptions Worth a Thousand Gold) treats Shi Yong (Stone Abscess, an abscess hard as stone that does not suppurate) by taking one acorn, dipping it in vinegar, grinding it on a stone to extract juice, and applying it to the lesion; replace when dry, and within ten applications, it will subside. Grinding the shell into a powder or boiling the juice for oral administration can stop diarrhea/dysentery and is also used for dyeing hair and beard.
