Heiling Dan (Black Spirit Pill): Take sixteen taels of large croton seeds (Crotonis Tiglii Fructus, 巴豆) and five qian of castor beans (Ricini Semen, 蓖麻子), without removing their shells. Place them in a stone mortar and pound until uniform. On a clear day, place a wind furnace outdoors. Use an iron pot over chestnut charcoal fire to stir-fry until charred black, continuing until no white oil exudes. Grind into an extremely fine powder. For all kinds of stubborn and malignant toxic sores where Shengdan (Calomel or similar mercurial preparation for drawing out pus, 升丹) cannot effectively draw out pus and remove necrotic tissue, applying this pill yields miraculous effects.
Huangling Dan (Yellow Spirit Pill): Take six qian of raw alum (Alumen Crude, 生白矾), three qian of calcined alum (Alumen Ustam, 枯白矾), and one qian of realgar (Realgar, 腰黄). Grind together into an extremely fine powder and store in a jar, ensuring no dust or impurities enter. For all kinds of toxic, foul-smelling necrotic dead flesh that cannot be removed, applying this powder will naturally promote the growth of new flesh. If applied to newly grown flesh, within moments, upon seeing the exudation of pus and moisture, pain will cease immediately. If pain is caused by rotting flesh, first apply Jinhua San (Golden Flower Powder, 金花散) to the healthy flesh, then apply this pill to the necrotic area; pain will naturally not occur. It can also be formed into powder sticks for use.
Zuixian Dan (Drunken Immortal Pill): Take Chuanwu (Aconiti Radix Praeparata, 川乌), Caowu (Aconiti Kusnezoffii Radix Praeparata, 草乌), Ru Xiang (Olibanum, 乳香), Mo Yao (Myrrha, 没药 - de-oiled), and Muguziren Ren (Semen Strychni, 木鳖子仁). Preparation method: Take one piece of tofu, place the Strychnos seed inside it, and roast on a tile until it becomes rotten and dry. Remove and discard the skin/husk. Add Jiuniang (Fermented Rice Wine, 白酒曲), Yapians (Opium Poppy, 鸦片), and Muxiang (Aucklandiae Radix, 木香 - five fen). Grind together into a fine powder. Form pills using Huojiu (Fire Liquor/Baijiu) to the size of a bullet, each weighing seven fen. For any carbuncles, ulcers, or toxic sores, when internal supportive medicines are being used to resolve toxins but pain is unbearable, take one pill with wine to stop pain.
Topical Anesthetic for Incision and Needling: Take Chuanwu (Aconiti Radix Praeparata, 川乌), Caowu (Aconiti Kusnezoffii Radix Praeparata, 草乌), Xixin (Asari Radix et Rhizoma, 细辛), Nanxing (Arisaematis Rhizoma, 南星), Banxia (Pinelliae Rhizoma Praeparatum, 半夏), and Chansu (Toad Venom, 蟾酥) in equal parts. Grind into a fine powder. Stew well with good wine and apply as a paste. Wait until numbness occurs and pain/itching are not felt before proceeding with surgical intervention.
Internal Strong Anesthetic: Take Baizhi (Angelicae Dahuricae Radix, 香白芷), Chuanxiong (Chuanxiong Rhizoma, 川芎), Zhibanxia (Pinelliae Rhizoma Praeparatum, 制半夏), Mugourou (Semen Strychni, 木鳖肉), Zijinpi (Cortex Magnoliae Officinalis, 紫金皮), Dahuixiang (Foeniculi Fructus, 大茴香), Yazao (Gleditsiae Sinensis Spina, 牙皂), Taiwuyao (Ligustici Chuanxiong Rhizoma, 台乌药), Danggui (Angelicae Sinensis Radix, 当归) - two taels each; Muxiang (Aucklandiae Radix, 木香 - five fen, not roasted); Sheng Chuanwu (Raw Aconiti Radix, 生川乌); Sheng Caowu (Raw Aconiti Kusnezoffii Radix, 生草乌) - one tael each. Grind into powder. Take one qian per dose, mixed with good wine. Wait until numbness sets in and pain is not felt before proceeding with surgery. If the patient becomes lethargic/unconscious, administer salt water to rescue.
