石硫黄(出自《神农本草经》):主治妇女阴部蚀疮、疽、痔漏及恶血,能坚固筋骨,去除头部脱发。能够熔化金银铜铁等奇异之物。(以上朱字部分为《神农本经》原文)治疗心腹部的积聚邪气、胁肋间的冷癖、咳嗽气逆上冲、脚部寒冷疼痛、软弱无力以及鼻出血、恶疮、下部疮疡,具有止血、杀灭疥虫的功效。(以上黑字部分为历代名医所记录)
【名称】石硫黄。
【产地】《图经本草》记载:石硫黄是矾石的液汁,产于东海牧羊山谷中以及泰山、河西等地。如今只出产于南海诸蕃国及岭南各州郡,虽有出产但品质不很好。以颜色像鹅雏刚出壳那样淡黄的为真品,称为“昆仑黄”。红色的称为“石亭脂”,青色的号称“冬结石”,半白半黑的称为“神惊石”,这些都不堪入药。又有一种土硫黄,出产于广南及荣州的溪涧水中,从水中流出。其味辛,性热,气味腥臭,可以煎炼成汁,用来铸造器皿。蜀地雅州也出产,质地光洁细腻,非常好,但药效不及从海外船运来的硫黄。考察古代方书,没有服用硫黄作为补益药的记载,书中所述的功用仅限于治疗疮蚀、积聚冷气、脚弱而已。世人于是用火炼法将其制成常服用的丸散。观察其制备和服食的方法,完全没有本源依据,不像乳石类药物有明确的议论和规范节制,所以服用它虽然见效快,但产生的祸患也更迅速,怎能不警惕呢?
【时令】生长无固定时节。采收在八月、九月进行。
【选用】以晶莹洁净、不含夹杂石块的为佳。
【色泽】淡黄色。
【味道】酸。
【性质】温,大热。
【气味特征】气浓味薄,属阳。
【气味】臭。
【主治】心腹部的积聚、冷癖、邪气。
【配伍辅助】石亭脂、曾青为其使药。
【相反/畏忌】畏朴硝、石亭脂;惧怕细辛、飞廉、铁。
【炮制】雷公说:凡使用硫黄四两,先用龙尾蒿的自然汁一镒,东流水三镒,紫背天葵汁一镒,粟遂子茎汁,将这四样合在一起,搅拌均匀,倒入坩埚中,用六一泥密封固济底部。将硫黄捣碎放入坩埚中,以前述的药汁慢慢加入,用火煮,直到汁液耗尽为止。然后再用百部末十两、柳枝末二斤、一簇草二斤(细切),与东流水及药物等同煮硫黄,经历两个伏日。时间到了后,去掉各种药物,取出使用。用熟甘草汤清洗后,放入钵中研磨两万匝,才可使用。
【治疗功效】(《药性论》记载):炼制后服用能降气,主治脚弱、腰肾久冷,祛除风顽痹症、虚损、泄精。生用治疗寒热、咳嗽气逆以及疥癣。(《图经本草》记载):土硫黄能杀灭疥疮虫毒。(《日华子本草》记载):石亭脂能壮阳道,除积癖冷气,强筋骨,治疗劳损、风劳、止嗽、上气以及下部痔疮、恶疮、疥癣,杀灭腹脏虫邪魅。
【解毒】中硫黄毒,可用猪肉鸭羹、余甘子来解之。
Toxic. Grows in stones.
Shihliuhuang (Sulfur) (from *Shennong Bencao Jing*): Mainly treats women's genital erosion, carbuncles, hemorrhoids, and evil blood; can strengthen muscles and bones, and remove scalp alopecia. Can melt gold, silver, copper, iron, and other strange substances. (The above red text is from the original *Shennong Bencao Jing*). Treats accumulations and evil qi in the heart and abdomen, cold phlegm-rheum in the hypochondrium, cough with rebellious qi ascending, coldness and pain in the feet, weakness and lack of strength, epistaxis, malignant sores, lower body ulcers; has hemostatic effects and kills scabies mites. (The above black text is recorded by famous physicians of later generations).
[Name] Shihliuhuang (Sulfur).
[Origin] *Tujing Bencao* records: Shihliuhuang is the liquid form of alum stone, produced in the Sheep Herding Valley of the East Sea, as well as Mount Tai and Hexi regions. Currently, it is only produced in various foreign countries south of the sea and prefectures beyond the Lingnan region; although produced there, the quality is not very good. The one with a color like a newly hatched duckling is genuine, called "Kunlun Huang". The red one is named "Shitingzhi" (Red Sulfur), the green one is known as "Dongjie Shi" (Winter-Frozen Stone), and the half-white half-black one is called "Shenjing Shi"; these are unsuitable for medicinal use. There is also a type of Tuliuhuang (Earth Sulfur) produced in streams and rivers in Guangnan and Rongzhou, flowing out from the water. Its taste is pungent, nature is hot, and it has a fishy odor; it can be refined into juice to cast vessels. Yazhou in Shu also produces it, which is very smooth and fine, but its efficacy does not match that imported by ship. Examining ancient prescription books, there were no records of taking sulfur as a tonic. The functions described in the classics were limited to treating erosive sores, accumulation of cold qi, and weak legs. People subsequently used fire-refining methods to make it into pills and powders for daily consumption. Observing its preparation and consumption methods, they lack any fundamental basis, unlike Rushi (Mineral drugs) which have clear discussions and regulations. Therefore, although its effect is rapid, its adverse reactions occur even faster; how can one not be vigilant?
[Season] No fixed season for growth. Harvested in August and September.
[Selection] Those that are crystal clear, clean, and free of mixed stones are best.
[Color] Pale yellow.
[Taste] Sour.
[Nature] Warm, extremely hot.
[Odor/Taste Characteristics] Strong odor, thin taste, belongs to Yang.
[Smell] Foul.
[Main Indications] Accumulations in the heart and abdomen, cold phlegm-rheum, evil qi.
[Adjuvants] Shitingzhi (Red Sulfur) and Cengqing (Azurite) act as guiding herbs.
[Antagonisms/Fears] Feels Puxiao (Mirabilite) and Shitingzhi; fears Xixin (Asarum), Feilian (Saussurea involucrata), and Iron.
[Processing] Leigong says: When using four liang of sulfur, first take one yi of natural juice from Longwei Hao (Artemisia capillaris var. chinensis), three yi of flowing water from the east, one yi of juice from Zibei Tiankui (Ophiopogon japonicus var. bulbifer), and juice from Susui Zi stem. Mix these four ingredients evenly, pour into a crucible, and seal the bottom with Liuyi Ni (Six-One Mud). Crush the sulfur and put it into the crucible. Slowly add the aforementioned herbal juices while boiling over fire until the liquid is exhausted. Then, boil the sulfur together with ten liang of Baibu powder (Stemona root), two jin of Liu Zhi mo (Willow branch powder), two jin of Yicao (Aconitum carmichaelii side root or similar), finely cut, along with flowing water and other medicines, for two Fu days (dog days). After time is up, remove all medicines and take out the processed sulfur. Wash with cooked Gancao Tang (Licorice Decoction), then grind in a mortar twenty thousand times before use.
[Therapeutic Effects] (*Yaoxing Lun* records): Refined and taken internally, it directs qi downward, mainly treats leg weakness, chronic coldness of the waist and kidneys, removes wind-damp bi-syndrome, deficiency, and seminal emission. Raw use treats chills and fever, cough with rebellious qi, and scabies/tinea. (*Tujing Bencao* records): Tuliuhuang kills scabies mites and insect toxins. (*Rihua Zi Bencao* records): Shitingzhi strengthens sexual function, removes accumulated cold qi, strengthens muscles and bones, treats exhaustion, wind-wasting, stops cough, addresses rebellious qi, and treats lower body hemorrhoids, malignant sores, scabies, and tinea, killing abdominal parasites and evil spirits.
[Detoxification] To detoxify sulfur poisoning, use pork and duck soup, and Yuganzi (Phyllanthus emblica).
