What should be done for women suffering from *chui ru* (breast inflammation characterized by redness, swelling, heat, and pain)? Burn *Zaojiao* (Gleditsiae Fructus Spina) to ash, mix it with *Ge Fen* (Concha Meretricis), and take it mixed with good wine in a dose of "eight characters" (approximately 2 qian). It takes effect immediately, and the efficacy is indeed significant.

The divine herb for treating *ding chuang* (carbuncle or deep-seated abscess) should be collected at noon on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month. Grind it into fine powder, mix with wine, and take slightly more than half a liang. After taking the medicine, sweating occurs, and recovery is indeed achieved.

Use *Xixin* (Asari Radix et Rhizoma), *Bibo* (Long Pepper Fruit), and *Xionghuang* (Realgar). Grind them with wine and add *Shexiang* (Moschus). Whether it is a snake bite or a dog bite, consuming it immediately brings health and peace.

*Zisu* (Perilla Leaf), *Chenpi* (Citrus Reticulata Peel), *Jupi* (Tangerine Peel), and scallions are ground into fine powder and decocted together with *Renshen* (Amomum Cardamomum Seed) in wine. For restless fetal qi and hardness/pain below the heart, it has miraculous efficacy.

Those bitten by mad dogs suffer greatly. Take five qian of *Xionghuang* (Realgar) and five qian of *Shexiang* (Moschus). Mix with wine, take two qian divided into two doses. If oral administration is not possible, insufflating into the nose also ensures safety.

*Caoguo* (Tsaoko Cardamomum Fruit) and *Yanhusuo* (Corydalis Rhizome) are used first, combined with *Lingzhi* (Drynaria Rhizoma? Note: Context suggests Olibanum/Frankincense context usually implies Ru Xiang, but Lingzhi here likely refers to *Pulsatillae Radix* or similar blood-invigorating herb depending on text variant, however standard WHO term for Lingzhi is Ganoderma. Given context "Lingzhi Moyao Ruxiang", Lingzhi here is likely *Honghua* or similar, but strictly extracting entity: *Lingzhi* (Ganoderma) or potentially typo for *Yanzhuo*? In TCM formulas for pain, *Lingzhi* often refers to *Pulsatilla* or is a specific local name. However, sticking to extracted names: *Lingzhi*, *Moyao* (Olibanum Resin), *Ruxiang* (Myrrha Resin). Mix with one cup of wine, take warm. Abdominal and heart pain are relieved as if picked away by hand.

For ordinary people suffering from painful hemorrhoids and fistulas turning into sores, take half a sheet of silkworm moth feces (*Yizhong Can'e*). Burn it to ash in a bowl, mix with good wine, and take it. The disease is removed as quickly as frost melting under water.

Take five or seven clusters of cold chrysanthemum flowers, crush them together with snowflakes, and make pills with rice paste. Insert a date-sized amount into the nose. Pain relief is truly like being picked away by hand.

Who knows which medicine is best for setting bones? Quickly find a large toad (*Da Xiaha*). Crush it raw into mud, apply to the affected area, and fixate with fir bark clamps. This is highly praiseworthy.

Wine's ability to sober up is extraordinary. Decoct *Caoguo* (Tsaoko Cardamomum Fruit) with *Gegen* (Puerariae Lobatae Radix) soup. Frequently drink three or four cups to detoxify; it is suitable for consumption before or after drunkenness.

Ordinary people who forget things due to busy days and nights can use *Yuanzhi* (Polygalae Radix) and *Changpu* (Acori Tatarinowii Rhizome) boiled as a soup. Take one bowl every morning on an empty stomach, and poetry and books will be engraved in the heart like carvings.

There are many kinds of fruits in the world, varying in toxicity and temperature (cold/cool). How to resolve accidental poisoning? Use *Pu Xiao* (Natrii Sulfas) added with *Shexiang* (Moschus) for immediate relief.

When old and young suddenly suffer from continuous hiccups (*E*), make pills using *Chuanjiao* (Sichuan Pepper) and raw flour. Ten pills the size of parasol tree seeds, taken with vinegar soup. Indeed, this is a divine prescription, not transmitted falsely.

When *Shanghan* (Cold Damage) suddenly feels difficult to treat, take half a liang of *Zhuyu* (Evodiae Fructus), without other ingredients. Decoct with water and take on an empty stomach. It guarantees that the ailment will be eliminated at that time.

Brain pain hanging empty at the high vertex requires quickly grinding *Mayaxiao* (Mirabilite) into fine powder. Mix well with butter/suet and temporarily apply to the nose, bringing natural comfort and ease.
