[Songjie (Pine Joint)]
Bitter in taste, warm in nature, non-toxic. Treats joint pain caused by Li Jie Feng (Lichu Rheumatism), and alleviates weakness, pain, and bi-syndrome in the feet. It dries damp-cold within the blood and relieves toothache caused by wind erosion.
(Verified Formula 1): For all types of tendon pain, take one qian of Songjie (Pine Joint) and one fen of Xuxiang (Frankincense). Stir-fry over a small fire until charred, then grind into powder. Take one to two qian each time, washed down with Mugua wine (Quince Wine).

[Guizhi (Cinnamon Twig)]
The rough outer bark should be removed before use. Those that are dense and extremely pungent are preferred.
Sweet and pungent in taste, very hot in nature, slightly toxic. It warms the middle jiao and promotes blood circulation, benefits Fire (Mingmen Fire) to dissipate Yin cold, consolidates sweat and stops pain, removes vexation, and can induce abortion.
Produced in Nanhai, Hepu, Jiaozhi, Guiyang, and other places. There are several varieties: Leaves long like loquat leaves, hard with hairs and serrated edges, white flowers, and oily bark are called Mogui (Male Cinnamon). Leaves like persimmon leaves but sharper, narrower, and smoother, with three longitudinal veins and no serrations, yellow or white flowers, and thin curled bark are called Jungui (Fungus Cinnamon), also known as Tonggui (Tube Cinnamon). Merchants currently sell these two types. The distinction is mainly that curled ones are Jungui, while flat or board-like ones are Mogui. Also, wood bark from Danyang is sometimes used to fake cinnamon; this must be known.
