尸疰者，是五尸之中，一尸疰也。人无问大小，腹内皆有尸虫。尸虫为性忌恶，
多接引外邪，共为患害。小儿血气衰弱者，精神亦羸，故尸疰因而为病。其状沉默，
不的知病之所在。或寒热淋漓。涉引岁月，遂至于死。死又疰易傍人，故曰尸疰也。
（宜圣惠木香散之类。）
蛊疰者，人以蛇虫诸毒，聚于器中，令相啖食。食尽存一物，最恶最毒，名曰
蛊。能随饮食变化，入腹还生，食人五脏。小儿中者，证与大人无异。其状心腹多
刺痛懊闷。急者即死，缓者延涉岁月。羸困下血，脏烂乃死。死又疰易傍人，故为
蛊疰也。（宜范汪十七物紫参丸、羚羊角散、雄黄散、小儿五种蛊毒方、败鼓皮方。）

葱刺鼻法
Shi Zhu (Corpse Transmission) is one of the five Shi (Corpse) pathogens. Regardless of age, everyone has "corpse worms" within their abdomen. The nature of these corpse worms is to abhor filth; they easily attract external pathogenic factors and cause harm together. In children with weak blood and Qi, the spirit is also emaciated, thus making them susceptible to illness from Shi Zhu. The symptoms include taciturnity and an inability to pinpoint the exact location of the pain. There may be lingering chills and fever. If left untreated for years, it leads to death. After death, the pathogen can transmit to others, hence the name Shi Zhu. (Suitable formulas include Muxiang San from *Shenghui Fang*.)
Gu Zhu (Gourd Transmission) refers to the practice of collecting various poisons from snakes and insects in a container, allowing them to devour each other until only one remains—the most vicious and toxic, named Gu. It can change form with food and drink, enter the abdomen, regenerate, and consume the five Zang organs. Children infected present with symptoms identical to adults: stabbing pain and stifling sensation in the heart and abdomen. Acute cases lead to immediate death, while chronic cases drag on for years. The patient becomes emaciated and exhausted with lower bleeding, eventually dying from organ rot. Like Shi Zhu, it transmits to others after death, hence called Gu Zhu. (Suitable formulas include Fan Wang's Shiqiwu Wu Zishen Wan, Lingyangjiao San, Xionghuang San, Erke Wuzhong Gudufang, and Baigupi Fang.)
