Critical research: From "Shen Nong's Materia Medica" ① "Lei Gong Pao Zhi Lun": "When using Dipsacus, do not use Cao Mao root, the reason is really like Duxu. Dipsacus, if misused, can cause weakness in the muscles. ② Tao Hongjing: "According to "Tongjun Medicine Record", it says: Dipsacus has spreading leaves, thin leaves, and large stems. The roots are yellow and white, and there is juice in July and August. When picking the roots, today we use stems and leaves, which are broken into sections, with yellow and wrinkled skin, and look like chicken feet. They also call it parasitism on mulberry trees, but this is probably not true. At that time, people also had elder trees, which were more than ten feet tall and had leaves like cassava. , the skin is used to treat gold sores, so it is called bone-setting; and there is also a vine in Guangzhou, named Dipsacus spp., also known as Nuodeng. Cut its stem and use the device to collect its juice. Drink it to treat weakness and injuries, and use it to wash your head. It also has long hair, and it will grow when you break a branch and stick it in the ground. I'm afraid it will be similar to this. Li Yun is a tiger thistle, which is very good, and the tiger thistle also heals blood.

③ "Tang Materia Medica": "Dipsacus Dipsacus is found in many valleys, with leaves like ramie and square stems, roots like thistles, yellow and white, not Tao Zhu." ④ "Ben Cao Tu Jing": "Dua Duan is also found in Shaanxi, Hezhong, Xingyuanfu, Shu, Yue and Jinzhou today." Seedlings will appear after March, with trunks with four edges, like ramie; leaves are similar, growing in pairs facing each other; blooming in April, red and white, like mother-of-pearl; roots like thistles, red and yellow. Harvested in July and August. According to "Fan Wang Fang", Dipsacus Dipsacus is the horse thistle, which is similar to the leaves of thistle, but larger than thistle. The leaves are small and thick like the thorns, with thorns on both sides. Its flowers are purple, which is related to today's Yuezhou. They are similar, and when looking at the products on the market, there are several types. Few can identify the good ones and use them for medical purposes, but those with broken joints and yellow and wrinkled skin are the real ones. ⑤ "Compendium": "There are different opinions on the meaning of Duanjuan. Tongjun said it is a creeping plant with leaves that look like squid. Li Dangzhi and Fan Wang both said it was a tiger thistle. Rihuazi said it was a big thistle, a name for mountain burdock. Su Gong, Su Song all said that the leaves are like ramie and the roots are like thistles. However, "Famous Doctors' Bielu" reappears the large and small thistle strips, which is quite difficult to rely on. However, since the Han Dynasty, thistles have been used as cuticles, and they have been passed down for a long time. In fact, what Ersu said seems to be consistent with Tongjun, and should be regarded as correct. Today, people use it from Sichuan. It is red in color, thin, and broken. It looks good if there is smoke and dust. Zheng Qiao's "Tongzhi" states that what Fan Wang said is Nan Duduan. I don't know what basis it is, so it is based on Bie Chuan Duan Er. ”
