冷,上气,腿膝虚羸,长肌肤,益气力,遗精,痔漏,老人风秘等。并宜烧炼服。仙方谓之
黄砂
,能坏五金,亦能造作金色,人能制伏归本色,服而能除万病。如有发动,宜以猪肉、鸭羹
,余甘子汤并解之。蜀中雅州亦出,光腻甚好,功力不及舶上来者。(《大观》卷四页10,
《政和》页103,《纲目》页702)
谨按《古今录》云∶波斯国在石上生。味咸、涩,主明目,消翳,点眼,及小儿无
辜疳气。方家少见用也。按舶上将来,为之石绿,装色久而不变。中国以铜错造者,不堪入
药,色亦不久。(《大观》卷四页25,《政和》页112,《纲目》页692)
谨按《广州记》云∶生南海山谷。其树紫赤色,是木中津液成也。治湿痒疮疥,宜
入膏用。又可造胡燕脂,余滓则玉作家使也。(《大观》卷十三页15,《政和》页320,《纲
目》页1510)
谨按《南越志》云∶是紫矿树之脂也。其味甘,温,无毒。主打伤折损,一切疼
痛,补虚及血气搅刺,内伤血聚,并宜酒服。欲验真伪,但嚼之不烂如蜡者上也。(《大观

按《晋列传》云∶石崇金谷园珊瑚树皮如花生蕊。味甘,平,无毒。主消宿血风痫

根据《广州记》记载:石流黄产于昆仑山脚下,以颗粒块状、晶莹剔透纯净、不含夹杂石头的为优良。主治风冷之邪,虚损劳伤,肾寒,气逆上冲,腿膝虚弱消瘦,能使肌肤丰润,补益气力,治疗遗精,痔漏,老年人风邪秘结等症。均宜经过烧炼后服用。仙方中称其为“黄砂”,能熔化五金,也能造作金色,人若能将其制伏回归本色,服用后可消除万病。如果药性发动不适,宜用猪肉、鸭羹、余甘子汤来解其毒。蜀地雅州也出产,光泽细腻很好,但药效不及从海外运来的。(引自《大观本草》卷四页10,《政和本草》页103,《本草纲目》页702)
根据《古今录》记载:波斯国出产的石流黄生于石上。味咸、涩,主治明目,消除眼翳,点眼使用,以及小儿无辜疳气。医方中较少使用它。按从海外运来的称为“石绿”,用于染色经久不变色。中国用铜错制造的,不堪入药,颜色也不持久。(引自《大观本草》卷四页25,《政和本草》页112,《本草纲目》页692)
根据《广州记》记载:产于南海山谷。其树呈紫红色,是树木的津液凝结而成。主治湿痒疮疥,适宜加入膏药中使用。又可用来制造胡燕脂(胭脂),剩下的渣滓则被玉工用作研磨材料。(引自《大观本草》卷十三页15,《政和本草》页320,《本草纲目》页1510)
根据《南越志》记载:这是紫矿树的树脂。味甘,性温,无毒。主治跌打损伤,各种疼痛,补虚及气血紊乱刺痛,内伤导致的血瘀积聚,均宜用酒送服。想要验证真伪,只需咀嚼,不烂如蜡质的是上等品。(引自《大观本草》卷十三页15,《政和本草》页320,《本草纲目》页1373)
根据《晋列传》记载:石崇金谷园的珊瑚树皮像花生蕊。味甘,性平,无毒。主治消除宿血、风痫等疾病。按其主治功效与黄金相似。(引自《大观本草》卷四页35,《政和本草》页116,《本草纲目》页617)
According to the *Guangzhou Ji* (Records of Guangzhou): It is produced at the foot of Mount Kunlun. The pieces that are granular, block-like, crystal clear, pure, and free from stone impurities are considered superior. It treats wind-cold pathogens, deficiency and exhaustion, coldness of the Kidney, rebellious Qi rising upward, weakness and emaciation of the legs and knees, promotes flesh growth, tonifies Qi and strength, treats spermatorrhea, hemorrhoids with leakage, and wind-type constipation in the elderly. All these indications are suitable for treatment after calcination and processing. In alchemical texts, it is called "Yellow Sand" (Huangsha), which can dissolve the five metals and also create gold color. If humans can subdue it and restore its original color, taking it can eliminate myriad diseases. If adverse reactions occur, they should be resolved with pork meat, duck soup, or Phyllanthus emblica decoction. Yazhou in Shu also produces it; although it is very lustrous and fine, its efficacy is inferior to that imported by sea. (Cited from *Daguan Bencao*, Vol. 4, p. 10; *Zhenghe Bencao*, p. 103; *Bencao Gangmu*, p. 702)
According to the *Gujin Lu* (Records of Past and Present): It is produced on stones in Persia. Its taste is salty and astringent. It treats brightening the eyes, eliminating nebulae (cataracts/opacities), for eye application, and for infant Wugu malnutrition (infantile malnutrition syndrome). It is rarely used in medical prescriptions. According to records, the variety imported by ship is called "Stone Green" (Shilü), used for dyeing where the color remains unchanged over time. Those manufactured in China using copper alloys are unsuitable for medicinal use, and their color does not last long. (Cited from *Daguan Bencao*, Vol. 4, p. 25; *Zhenghe Bencao*, p. 112; *Bencao Gangmu*, p. 692)
According to the *Guangzhou Ji*: It grows in the valleys of the South Sea. The tree has a purplish-red color, formed from the resinous exudate of the wood. It treats damp-heat itching sores and scabies, and is suitable for incorporation into ointments. It can also be used to manufacture Hu Yanzhi (foreign rouge); the remaining dregs are used by jade workers as an abrasive. (Cited from *Daguan Bencao*, Vol. 13, p. 15; *Zhenghe Bencao*, p. 320; *Bencao Gangmu*, p. 1510)
According to the *Nanyue Zhi*: This is the resin of the Zikuang tree. Its taste is sweet, nature is warm, and it is non-toxic. It treats traumatic injuries and fractures, all kinds of pain, tonifies deficiency, and addresses chaotic Qi and blood causing stabbing sensations, as well as internal injuries leading to blood stasis accumulation. All are best taken with wine. To verify authenticity, simply chew it; the superior grade will not break down and feels like wax. (Cited from *Daguan Bencao*, Vol. 13, p. 15; *Zhenghe Bencao*, p. 320; *Bencao Gangmu*, p. 1373)
According to the *Jin Liezhuan* (Biographies of Jin): The coral trees in Shi Chong's Jingu Garden have bark resembling peanut florets. Its taste is sweet, nature is neutral, and it is non-toxic. It treats resolving old blood stasis, wind-phrenzy, and other disorders. Its therapeutic actions are similar to those of Gold. (Cited from *Daguan Bencao*, Vol. 4, p. 35; *Zhenghe Bencao*, p. 116; *Bencao Gangmu*, p. 617)
