产于广东地区，是青藤仔的花。粤语称：青藤仔的叶子长三、四寸，多芒刺，茎干粗如手指且坚韧。民间日常煎汤外洗治疗疮疥效果良好。
这就是千金草花。千金草即《神农本草经》中的兰草，也就是现在所称的孩儿菊、省头草。二月时宿根再次发芽，紫茎素枝，赤节绿叶，对节生长，光泽且有分叉，嫩时可佩戴，八、九月逐渐老化，枝头成穗，开出红白相间的花朵，形状似鸡苏（薄荷类植物），时间久了花瓣转白，绒毛裂开如球状，球中有一粒种子，绒毛附着在种子上，颜色黑味道苦，气味臭中带香，开裂后即为千金花。李时珍《本草纲目》仅记载了其叶子的用途。《本草乘雅半偈》说：用千金花煮酒，气味类似木香，苦味甚于黄连，用于治疗滞痢，疗效颇快。所以我采纳其说法收入花部，以补充未备之处。此花花气香、味苦，浸酒可治滞下（痢疾），因为它具有辟除不祥、利水道、宣通气机达于四方的功效（引自《本草乘雅半偈》）。
《山海草函》记载：治疗杖伤丹毒、癞头（麻风病头部症状）、汤火烫伤。
汪连仕说：今人称之为翠翎草，翠绿环绕如羽毛，细叶贴地而生，与翠云草、凤尾不同。我按察认为：这种植物就是茑萝，今人编织竹亭台，种植在盆中，秋天开大红小花的就是它。治疗耳疔、痔疮瘘管。
又名佛见笑。汪连仕说：取其根、叶阴干研为末，用蜜糖汤调服，治疗伤寒危重急症立竿见影，这是元升观的说法。
汪连仕《草药方》说：雨韭生长在水泽旁边，即青慈菇花，去湿的功效同茵陈一样。散除各种疔肿，消除痔漏，明目。
固精（引自《物理小识》）。
《云谷医抄》记载：治疗疮烂腿，使用佛前多年陈旧的供花，取来用香油浸泡后贴敷，即可痊愈。
Produced in Guangdong, it is the flower of *Qingtengzi* (Green Vine Seed). In Cantonese: The leaves of *Qingtengzi* are three to four cun long, covered with many prickles, and the stem is as thick as a finger yet tough. Boiling it into a decoction for daily washing is effective for treating sores and scabies.
This is the flower of *Qianjincao* (Thousand Gold Grass). *Qianjincao* is the *Lancao* (Orchid Grass) mentioned in the *Shennong Bencao Jing*, also known today as *Hai'erju* (Child Chrysanthemum) or *Shengtoucao* (Head-Clearing Grass). In February, the perennial roots sprout again; it has purple stems with plain branches, red nodes with green leaves, growing opposite each other, glossy and forked. When tender, it can be worn as an ornament; by August and September, it matures, forming spikes on branch tips that bloom with red and white flowers resembling *Jisu* (Mint-like plant). After a long time, the petals turn white, and the flocculence splits into a ball shape containing one seed inside. The flocculence adheres to the seed, which is black and bitter in taste, with a foul yet fragrant odor upon splitting; this is the *Qianjinhua* (Thousand Gold Flower). Li Shizhen's *Bencao Gangmu* only records the use of its leaves. *Bencao Chengya Banjie* states: "Boiling *Qianjin* flower in wine yields an aroma similar to *Muxiang* (Aucklandia Root), with bitterness surpassing *Huanglian* (Coptis Rhizome); it is used to treat stagnant dysentery with rapid efficacy." Therefore, I adopted this statement and included it in the flower section to supplement what was previously incomplete. The flower has a fragrant aroma and bitter taste; steeping it in wine treats dysentery because it possesses the functions of warding off misfortune, promoting water passage, and disseminating qi to all directions (cited from *Bencao Chengya Banjie*).
*Shanhai Caohan*: Treats contusion-induced erysipelas, leprosy of the head, and burns/scalds.
Wang Lianshi says: It is currently called *Cuilingcao* (Emerald Feather Grass). Its emerald color surrounds like feathers, with fine leaves growing flat against the ground, differing from *Cuiyuncao* (Cloud Green Grass) and *Fengwei* (Phoenix Tail). Upon my investigation: This species is actually *Nialuo* (Creeping Fig/Vine). People now weave bamboo into pavilions and plant it in pots; the one that blooms with small large-red flowers in autumn is indeed this plant. It treats ear carbuncles and hemorrhoidal fistulas.
Also known as *Fo Jianxiao* (Buddha Laughs at Sight). Wang Lianshi says: Take its roots and leaves, dry them in the shade, grind into powder, and take with honey-sweetened water; it produces immediate results for critical typhoid fever. This is the view of Yuan Shengguan.
Wang Lianshi's *Caoyao Fang* (Herbal Formula): *Yujiu* (Rain Leek) grows beside marshes; it is the flower of *Qing Cigu* (Green Arrowhead). Its dampness-dispelling efficacy is the same as *Yinchen* (Artemisia Capillaris Herb). It disperses all types of carbuncle swellings, eliminates hemorrhoidal fistulas, and brightens the eyes.
Consolidates essence (*Wuli Xiaoshi*).
*Yungu Yichao*: For treating ulcerated legs, use old供奉 flowers from before the Buddha that have been kept for many years. Soak them in sesame oil and apply externally; healing occurs immediately.
