蜗牛主治贼风、偏瘫、跌后大肠脱肛、筋脉拘急以及惊痫（名医所录）。【名称】蠡牛。【产地】《图经》记载：生于泰山池沼及阴地沙石处、人家墙垣下，如今各地都有。陶隐居注释说：蜗牛形状像蛞蝓，只是背上背着壳罢了。庄子所说的“战于蜗角”就是指的它。久雨后放晴，竹林池沼间多有出现。城墙阴处有一种扁而小的，无力不堪用。蜗牛入婴幼儿用药最为适宜。藏入壳中。【生长时间】无固定时候。【采集时间】无固定时候。【选用标准】形体圆大者为佳。【质地】类似蛞蝓但背负外壳。【颜色】青白色。【味道】咸。【性质】寒性且软。【气味】气薄味浓，属阴。【气味】腥味。【功效】祛风热，消疮肿。【炮制】入药炒用，或捣取汁液使用。【治疗】《图经》记载：蜗牛涎主治消渴症。《别录》记载：蜗牛壳二十枚烧成灰，细细研磨，每次用来擦牙，治疗牙齿受冷痛。每当因大便导致脱肛不能收回时，取蜗牛二百个放入小净瓶中，用新汲水一盏浸泡瓶中，封口系紧，从晚上泡到第二天早晨，取出蜗牛，保留其水如涎状，混合真蛤粉，不限多少，随时调匀敷贴，用鸡毛扫涂，治疗发背疮，每天可涂抹十余次，待热痛停止，疮即痊愈。取蜗牛壳十枚，洗去尘土使其干燥，放入酥蜜中，用瓷盒盛装，再用纸糊在饭甑内蒸，等到饭熟时取出，细细研磨，逐渐服食，一日吃完，治疗小儿各种疳疾。
有小毒。卵生。
石龙子主治五癃、邪结气、破石淋、下血、利小便水道（神农本经）。【名称】蜥（音锡）蜴（音亦）、守宫、石蜴、蝾螈（音偃）、蜓（音电）、蛇医、虺蜴、刺易（音卢）、KT（音廛）、易蜥、山龙子。【产地】《图经》记载：生于平阳川谷及荆山山石间，如今各地都有。《尔雅》说：蝾螈、蜥蜴、蜓、守宫四者是一物，形状相似但名称不同。《字林》说：蝾螈即蛇医。《说文》说：在草中的叫蜥蜴，在墙壁上的叫蜓。秦晋西夏地区叫它守宫，或者叫KT，或者叫刺易。南阳人叫泽中的蜓为易蜥，楚地叫它蛇医。东方朔说：不是守宫就是蜥蜴。按这些说法，大概是在草泽中的名叫蝾螈、蜥蜴，在墙壁上的名叫蜓、守宫。汉武帝在午日捕捉蜥蜴，喂食丹砂，使其身体全红，次年此日捣碎涂抹在宫人手臂上，像红痣一样，若有犯禁行为即消失，所以称为守宫。《衍义》记载：大的长七八寸，身体有金碧色。仁庙朝时有一只蜥蜴在右掖门西浚沟庙中，那是真正的蜥蜴。郑状元有诗云：曾有樵夫在山涧下行路，看见一只蜥蜴从石缝中出来饮水，随后又进去，如此反复百十次仍不停止。樵夫怀疑它，忍不住翻动石头查看，发现有一二升冰雹。樵人惊讶离去，走了三五里后，大雨降临，狂风暴雨冰雹大作。如今用于祈雨。《经》云：治五癃，破石淋，利水道，也是这个意思。【生长时间】无固定时候。【采集时间】三月、四月、五月、八月、九月采集。【选用标准】身体有金碧色的。【颜色】青色。【味道】咸。【性质】寒性。【气味】气薄味浓，属阴。【气味】腥味。【功效】破诸淋，消结气。【相反】畏硫黄、斑蝥、芜荑。【炮制】去除腹内脏器，火炙干燥后研细，或放在石头上令其干燥使用。
Non-toxic. Produced by dampness.
*Helix pomatia* (Snail) [1] primarily treats *zei feng* (thief wind, a type of pathogenic wind causing sudden paralysis or pain), hemiplegia [2], rectal prolapse following trauma, tendon spasm, and convulsive epilepsy (Recorded by famous physicians). [Name] Li Niu. [Origin] *Tu Jing* states: Grows in ponds and marshes of Mount Tai, in sandy stones of shady places, and under the walls of houses; it is now found everywhere. Tao Hongjing noted: The snail resembles *Agriolimax agrestis* (Slug) but carries a shell on its back. This is what Zhuangzi referred to as "war on the tip of a snail's horn." After long rain clears up, they often appear among bamboo forests and pools. There is a flat and small variety found under city walls that lacks potency and is unsuitable for use. Snails are most effective in pediatric medicines. They hide inside their shells. [Growth Time] No fixed time. [Harvest Time] No fixed time. [Selection Criteria] Those with round and large bodies are superior. [Texture] Similar to slugs but bearing a shell. [Color] Bluish-white. [Taste] Salty. [Nature] Cold and soft. [Qi] Qi is thin, flavor is strong, Yin nature. [Odor] Fishy. [Action] Disperses wind-heat, reduces carbuncles and swelling. [Processing] Stir-fry before use, or crush to extract juice. [Treatment] *Tu Jing* records: Snail mucus treats *xiao ke* (wasting-thirst syndrome/diabetes). *Bie Lu* records: Burn twenty snail shells to ash, grind finely, and rub on teeth each time to treat toothache caused by cold. When rectal prolapse occurs due to defecation and cannot be retracted: Take 200 snails, place them in a small clean bottle, add one cup of freshly drawn water, seal tightly, soak from evening until morning. Remove the snails, retain the mucus-like fluid, mix with true clam powder in any proportion, apply immediately using a feather brush. Treats dorsal carbuncle; can be applied more than ten times a day. Once heat and pain cease, the ulcer heals. Take ten snail shells, wash away dust, dry them, place in lard and honey, store in a porcelain box, steam inside a rice steamer lined with paper. Remove when rice is cooked, grind finely, and consume gradually over one day. Treats all types of *gan* disease (malnutrition/parasitic infection) in children.
Slightly toxic. Oviparous.
*Shi Long Zi* (Stone Dragon Lizard) [3] primarily treats *wu long* (five types of strangury/urinary difficulty), pathogenic stagnant qi, breaks *shi lin* (gravel stranguria), stops lower bleeding, and promotes urination through the water passages (*Shen Nong Ben Cao Jing*). [Name] Xi Yi (Pronunciation: Xi/Yi), Shou Gong, Shi Yi, Rong Yuan (Pronunciation: Yan), Ting (Pronunciation: Dian), She Yi, Hui Yi, Ci Yi (Pronunciation: Lu), KT (Pronunciation: Chan), Yi Xi, Shan Long Zi. [Origin] *Tu Jing* states: Grows in valleys of Pingyang and among rocks at Mount Jing; it is now found everywhere. *Er Ya* states: Rong Yuan, Xi Yi, Ting, and Shou Gong are the same creature, similar in shape but with different names. *Zi Lin* states: Rong Yuan is She Yi. *Shuo Wen* states: In grass it is called Xi Yi; on walls it is called Ting. In Qin, Jin, and Western Xia regions, it is called Shou Gong, or KT, or Ci Yi. People in Nanyang call the Ting found in marshes Yi Xi; Chu region calls it She Yi. Dongfang Shuo said: It is either Shou Gong or Xi Yi. According to these explanations, those in grass and marshes are named Rong Yuan and Xi Yi, while those on walls are named Ting and Shou Gong. Emperor Wu of Han captured Xi Yis on the Wu day, fed them cinnabar until their bodies turned completely red. On the same day the following year, they were crushed and applied to palace women's arms like red moles; if the women committed adultery, the mark would disappear, hence the name Shou Gong (Guarding Palace). *Yan Yi* records: Large ones are seven or eight inches long, with golden-green colors. During Emperor Renzong's reign, a lizard was seen digging ditches west of the Right Ye Gate in the temple; this was a true lizard. Premier Zheng wrote a poem: A woodcutter once saw a lizard drinking from a stream crevice, entering and exiting repeatedly over a hundred times. Suspecting it, the woodcutter flipped the stone and found two or three sheng of hail. Astonished, he left. Three or five li away, heavy rain, wind, and hail struck. Thus, it is now used for praying for rain. The Canon states: Treats *wu long*, breaks *shi lin*, promotes urination, which aligns with this meaning. [Growth Time] No fixed time. [Harvest Time] Harvest in March, April, May, August, September. [Selection Criteria] Those with golden-green body color. [Color] Green. [Taste] Salty. [Nature] Cold. [Qi] Qi is thin, flavor is strong, Yin nature. [Odor] Fishy. [Action] Resolves various strangurias, dissipates stagnant qi. [Antagonism] Adversely affected by Rhizoma Realgar (Liu Huang), Mylabris (Ban Mao), and Radix Descurainiae (Wu Ti). [Processing] Remove internal organs, roast over fire until dry, then grind finely; or place on stones to dry.
