66.111

面皺 (for the second character, zh- + -ou in fanqie. The standard form takes 芻 as the phonetic to make 皺. In the treatise text it is written as 皺, which is the popular character, simplified due to cursive script. The Kaosheng says: '皺 means the gathering of skin.' The Wenzi dianshuo says: 'It means loose skin gathering together.' It takes skin as semantic and 芻 as phonetic; 芻 is pronounced ch- + -u).
