According to the *Zhubing Yuanhou Lun* (Treatise on the Pathogenesis and Symptoms of All Diseases), "wind pathogen" refers to wind qi invading the human body. The body's blood and qi constitute the righteous qi, while external wind constitutes the pathogen. If living conditions are improper, leading to exposure to summer heat or sorrow...
The *Wuxie Tang* (Decoction for Five Pathogens) from *Seng Shen Fang* is used to treat wind pathogen entering the body, manifesting as delirious speech resembling ghostly utterances, mental confusion, trance-like states, instability of will, and erratic movements.

The *Zhubing Yuanhou Lun* states that there are five types of Dian disease (Epilepsy/Mental Disorder): Yang Dian, Yin Dian, Feng Dian (Wind Dian), Shi Dian (Damp Dian), and Ma Dian (Horse Dian). When a person has deficient blood and qi, it leads to Heart deficiency... and Qi rebellion...
The *Qianjin Fang* (Essential Prescriptions Worth a Thousand Gold) states: To treat Dian disease, observe the patient; where there is stasis, apply bleeding therapy. Place the extracted blood in a gourd vessel; when the disease attacks, the blood in the vessel will move independently.

Take three sheng of wild wolf seeds, soak in five sheng of clear wine, remove and dry. Repeat soaking and drying until the liquid is absorbed, then powder. Take four fangcunbi on an empty stomach, three times daily.
