[Formula 1: Carp and Bean Decoction]
Select a large carp, wash it clean to remove mud, open its belly, and insert half a liang of Sichuan pepper powder and two or three cloves of sliced garlic into the fish's abdomen. Sew the belly shut. Boil it together with one sheng of Adzuki beans (Vigna angularis). When nearly cooked, add three to five radishes (about the size of a finger) and a handful of chopped scallions. Cook until done. Consume on an empty stomach. Eat as much as possible, including the beans and other ingredients. By nightfall, excessive flatulence will be discharged. Repeat this dose every three to five days to expel all noxious qi from the body.
[Formula 2: Achyranthes and Aconite Pills]
Indications: Deficiency of Liver and Kidney, invaded by Wind-Cold-Dampness toxicity, which flows and accumulates in the legs and knees, causing severe joint pain (Li Jie pain), described as feeling like being pierced by awls or forged knives, unbearable in nature.
Ingredients: Xu Duan / Achyranthis Bidentatae Radix (Liang Liang, remove rhizome, use dried Huai variety); Chuan Wu Tou / Aconiti Radix (Ten authentic pieces, crushed, placed in a silk bag, steamed together with one dou of black soybeans for one day, then removed; discard the beans; removing skin and tips is ideal).
Preparation and Administration: Do not use copper or iron vessels, nor expose the herbs to fire or sunlight. Crush the Achyranthes root in a wooden mortar, then grind it into powder using a stone mill. Mix with wine and flour paste to form pills the size of Sophora seeds (Wu Tong zi). Take forty pills per dose, administered with one bottle of unadulterated wine containing slices of a medium-sized Chaenomeles fruit (Mu Gua), which has been simmered until soft. Use this wine to swallow the pills at any time. Regarding the notion that "Liver Qi fears iron," while some avoid iron, avoiding fire and sun is considered an unnecessary taboo by over-cautious individuals. Moreover, herbs like Aconite and Achyranthes are naturally dried in the shade during collection.
[Formula 3: Meridian-Unblocking Pain-Relieving Pills]

All ingredients are used in equal proportions.
Preparation and Administration: Grind all ingredients into a fine powder. Mix with wine-boiled flour paste to form pills the size of Sophora seeds. Take fifteen to twenty pills per dose on an empty stomach, washed down with warm wine or salt water. Administer twice daily.

Preparation and Administration: Grind all ingredients into a fine powder and mix uniformly. Form pills the size of mung beans using wine-boiled flour paste, coated with Cinnabar.
