驪珠（里知反莊子云夫千金之珠必在九重之淵驪龍頷下若能得珠遭遇其睡也如使驪龍悟子安得哉也說文從馬麗聲）。

Black dragon's pearl (lízhū: the first is fanqie 里 + 知 [lǐ + zhī]. The Zhuangzi states: "A pearl worth a thousand pieces of gold is surely found at the bottom of a nine-fold abyss, under the jaws of a black dragon. If one can obtain such a pearl, it is only by coming upon the dragon while it sleeps; had the dragon awoken, how could you have obtained it?" The Shuowen jiezi states: "It takes the radical 馬 with 麗 as its phonetic component").
