(Hanshi Mai Ren / Hanshi Wheat Kernels) are primarily used to eliminate keloids (scar tissue). For old scars and various sores, they should be finely ground and applied externally. Ash from cooked rice is indicated for post-illness conditions caused by dietary labor.
*Wai Tai Mi Yao* records: To treat *Jiaolong Jia* (a type of abdominal mass disease), take three sheng of Hanshi Tang (Cold Food Syrup), taking five ge per dose, administered three times a day. Subsequently, the "Jiaolong" will be vomited up; this creature has two heads and a tail.
(Tang / Syrup) tastes sweet, is cold in nature, and is non-toxic. It primarily benefits the intestines and stomach, augments qi and strength, prevents hunger with long-term consumption, clears heat, and is beneficial to the human body; it can be used to make rice. It grows in paddy fields. The seedlings resemble wheat but are smaller, ripening in the fourth lunar month. *Erya* states: "Huang" refers to Shoutian (Field Guardian). It resembles oats and is edible. It is also known as Shouqi.
Its seeds can be prepared like millet to eat, which prevents hunger. It resembles reed grass, forms spikes, and grows in marshy areas. *Guangzhi* states: It can be processed into millet. *Erya* states: "Meng" refers to Wild Wolf's Tail. People now call it Yelangmao Zi. Seeds of Kuai grass are also edible, resembling japonica rice in texture, with seedlings similar to reeds.
(Another plant) tastes sweet and is non-toxic. It primarily treats xiaoke (wasting-thirst syndrome, akin to diabetes). It should not be boiled and eaten with salt. The seedlings resemble bean plants, grow in wild fields, and are often found mixed in rice grains.
(Another plant) tastes sweet, is neutral in nature, and is non-toxic. It augments qi, lightens the body, prevents hunger with long-term use, strengthens sinews and bones, and enhances walking ability. It grows in the Hexi region. The seedlings resemble mugwort, and the seeds resemble sunflower seeds or kua vegetables; it can be used to make rice. *Wei Shu* records: It grows on the east wall, ripening in the ninth and tenth lunar months. *Guangzhi* records: The seeds from the east wall resemble kua vegetables and are greenish. They are available in the Liangzhou area. The local dialect says: "Lend me the grain from your east wall, and I will repay you with your field's sorghum." The character "Qiang" is pronounced "ji yang qie".
(Another plant) tastes pungent, is cold in nature, and is non-toxic. It primarily treats gu poison (parasitic disease). Boil to extract the juice, filter through fine silk, and administer. The effect is stable/mild ("Wen" is pronounced "ben", referring to mangbi, i.e., chaff or husks).
(Another substance) tastes salty, is neutral in nature, and is non-toxic. It primarily treats hiccups and vomiting/rebellious qi. Children may drink it mixed with milk and a small amount of cow's milk, or take it alone.

Spraying the four walls of a house repels mosquitoes. Placing it in a child's mouth induces rapid speech. This is the wine remaining after sacrifices to the Earth God (She).
