【船底苔】
性味：味冷，无毒。
主治：治疗鼻出血、吐血及淋证（小便频数短涩、滴沥刺痛）。用法：用炙甘草配合豆豉汁，浓煎成汤剂，随时小口饮用。又主治五种淋证，取一团如鸭子大小的量，煮后服用。此外，水中的细苔，主治时行疫病（具有传染性的外感热病），症见心胸烦闷，捣碎绞取汁液服用。（新补充内容见于孟诜、陈藏器、日华子的著作。）
陈藏器说：主治五种淋证。取如鸭蛋大小的一块，用水煮后服用。《圣惠方》：治疗乳石发动（服食矿物药引起的不良反应），导致小便淋涩不通，心神烦闷混乱。用法：取船底青苔如半个鸡蛋大，用水一大盏，煎至五分，去渣温服，每日三到四次服用。《子母秘录》记载：小儿赤游丹（一种急性皮肤感染，表现为皮肤红肿游走），在身体上下行走，若到达心脏部位即致死。用水中苔捣成末，敷于患处良好。
【红豆蔻】
性味：味辛，温，无毒。
主治：主理肠虚水泻，心腹绞痛，霍乱（上吐下泻的急性胃肠疾病），呕吐酸水，解酒毒。不宜多服，否则令人舌苔粗糙，不思饮食。据说它是高良姜的子实。其苗像芦苇，叶似姜，花成穗状，嫩叶卷曲生长且微带红色。产于南海各地。（今附）
臣禹锡等谨按《药性论》记载：红豆蔻也可以单用，味苦、辛。能治疗冷气腹痛，消除瘴气雾毒，去除宿食，温暖腹肠，治疗吐泻痢疾。
《海药本草》说：选择嫩者，加入盐，累累成朵不散落，必须用朱槿染色使其颜色加深，善于解除醉酒，解酒毒。此外没有其他特别重要的用途。
【莳萝】
性味：味辛，温，无毒。
主治：主治小儿气胀，霍乱呕逆，腹冷食不下，两肋痞满。产于佛誓国（古国名，指斯里兰卡等地），形状像马芹子，气味辛香。又名慈谋勒。（今附）
臣禹锡等谨按日华子说：健脾，开胃气，温肠，杀鱼肉毒，补水脏（肾）及壮筋骨，治肾气。
《图经本草》说：莳萝，出自佛誓国，现在岭南及邻近道路都有出产。三月、四月生苗，花、果实大类蛇床子而香气辛烈。六月、七月采集果实。现在人多用来调和五味，没听说入药使用。
《海药本草》说：谨按《广州记》记载：产于波斯国。马芹子即黑色而重。莳萝子即褐色而轻。主治膈气（胸膈间气机阻滞），消食温胃，善于增加食物味道，多吃无损害，只是不可与阿魏同合，会夺去其味道。
[Chuandi Tai (Moss from the Bottom of a Boat)]
Nature and Flavor: Cold, non-toxic.
Indications: Treats epistaxis (nosebleed), hematemesis (vomiting blood), and Lin syndrome (dysuria characterized by frequency, urgency, and pain). Usage: Combine Zhi Gancao (Honey-fried Licorice Root) with Dou Chi (Fermented Soybean Juice), decoct strongly into a soup, and sip frequently. It also treats five types of Lin syndrome; take an amount the size of a duck egg, boil, and ingest. Additionally, fine moss found in water treats epidemic febrile diseases (infectious febrile conditions) presenting with chest oppression and stuffiness; crush, extract juice, and ingest. (Newly supplemented content is found in the works of Meng Shen, Chen Cangqi, and Ri Hua Zi.)
Chen Cangqi stated: It treats five types of Lin syndrome. Take a piece the size of a duck egg, boil in water, and ingest. *Shenghui Fang*: Treats "Ru Shi Fa Dong" (adverse reactions caused by ingesting mineral drugs), leading to dysuria with obstruction and strangury, and mental restlessness and confusion. Usage: Take Qing Tai (Green Moss) from the bottom of a boat, the size of half a chicken egg, add one large cup of water, decoct until reduced to two-fifths, remove dregs, and take warm. Administer three to four times daily. *Zimu Milu* records: Xiao'er Chi You Dan (Pediatric Red Wandering Erysipelas, an acute skin infection with migrating redness), which moves up and down the body; if it reaches the heart, death ensues. Crush moss from water into powder and apply topically for good results.
[Hong Dou Kou (Red Cardamom Fruit)]
Nature and Flavor: Pungent, warm, non-toxic.
Indications: Primarily treats intestinal deficiency with watery diarrhea, abdominal cramping pain, Huoluan (acute gastroenteritis with vomiting and diarrhea), vomiting of sour fluids, and resolves alcohol toxicity. It should not be taken in excess, as it causes roughness of the tongue and loss of appetite. It is said to be the fruit of Gao Liang Jiang (Galangal). Its shoots resemble reeds, leaves resemble ginger, flowers form spikes, and tender leaves grow curled with a slight reddish hue. It grows in various regions of the South Sea. (Currently appended)
Chen Yuxi et al., according to *Yao Xing Lun*, state: Hong Dou Kou can also be used alone, with bitter and pungent flavors. It can treat abdominal pain due to cold qi, eliminate miasma and fog toxins, remove retained food, warm the abdomen and intestines, and treat vomiting, diarrhea, and dysentery.
*Hai Yao Ben Cao* states: Select tender ones, add salt; they form clusters that do not scatter. They must be dyed with Hibiscus rosa-sinensis to deepen the color. It effectively alleviates drunkenness and resolves alcohol toxicity. There are no other significant uses beyond this.
[Shiluo (Dill)]
Nature and Flavor: Pungent, warm, non-toxic.
Indications: Primarily treats pediatric abdominal distension due to qi stagnation, Huoluan with vomiting and regurgitation, cold abdomen with inability to eat, and fullness/stuffiness in both hypochondria. It grows in Fo Shi Guo (an ancient country name referring to Sri Lanka and surrounding areas), resembling Ma Qin Zi (Caraway seeds), with a pungent aroma. Also known as Ci Mou Le. (Currently appended)
Chen Yuxi et al., according to Ri Hua Zi, state: It strengthens the spleen, opens the stomach and promotes qi movement, warms the intestines, kills fish and meat toxins, nourishes the Kidney Zang organ, strengthens sinews and bones, and treats Kidney Qi disorders.
*Tujing Bencao* states: Shiluo originates from Fo Shi Guo; currently, it is produced in Lingnan and nearby regions. Seedlings emerge in March and April; flowers and fruits are similar in size to She Chuang Zi (Cnidium fruit) but have a pungent aroma. Fruits are harvested in June and July. Nowadays, people mostly use it to harmonize the five flavors; it is rarely heard of being used medicinally.
*Hai Yao Ben Cao* states: According to *Guangzhou Ji*: It grows in Persia. Ma Qin Zi (Caraway seeds) are black and heavy. Shiluo Zi (Dill seeds) are brown and light. It treats Ge Qi (obstruction of qi in the diaphragm/chest), aids digestion, warms the stomach, enhances food flavor, and is harmless even in large amounts. However, it should not be combined with As Wei (Asafoetida), as it will diminish its flavor.
