If evil qi invades the home, take three qian of genuine Realgar (Xionghuang), one bowl of water, and sprinkle the entire house with water dipped from a peach branch from the southeast direction; the evil traces will be eliminated. Do not let women know about this. (From *Ji Jian Fang*)
For "evil spirit intercourse" (mental confusion or hallucinations caused by evil spirits), take two liang of Tiger Bone (Hugu), and one liang each of Cinnabar (Zhusha), Xanthium Seed (Wuyi), Arisaema Rhizome (Guijiu), Arisaema with Bracts (Guijian), Realgar (Xionghuang), and Veratrum Rhizome (Lilu). Grind all ingredients into fine powder, mix with refined honey to make pills the size of a bullet. Place two pills in a pouch; for men, tie it on the left back; for women, on the right back. Additionally, burn some pills in the patient's room. (From *Tong Shou Lu*)
Another method: have the patient press their two thumbs together and moxa-ignite the space between them with an moxa cone. (Ibid.)
Evil-dispelling talisman: On New Year's Day, write the character "Ling" (Spirit) in seal script and paste it on the door; all evil spirits will stay away for a thousand li. It is said that when humans die, they become ghosts, which people fear; when ghosts die, they become "Ling," which frightens ghosts. Writing and pasting this talisman ensures the whole family remains free from evil epidemics for a year. (From *Gou Lou Shen Shu*)
For sudden death caused by ghost expulsion (sudden fainting/collapse), blow a small amount of vinegar into the nose. (From *Qian Jin Fang*)
Ghost pressing/ghost beating (sleep paralysis-like symptoms): Similar to when a person sleeps in a new lodging or an empty cold room, feeling as if ghosts are pressing or beating them. The person makes grunting sounds, cannot be awakened by calling, and will die if not rescued. The method involves taking one qian each of Realgar (Xionghuang) and Calculus Bovis (Niuhuang), and five fen of Cinnabar (Zhusha), grinding them into powder and mixing evenly. Burn one qian under the bed, and mix the other qian with warm wine to administer orally. (From *Qi Fang Lei Bian*)
Moxa method for dispelling ghosts: Treats various conditions such as惊狂 (frightened mania), delirious speech, climbing walls, jumping onto roofs, cursing without distinguishing kinship or strangers. Tie the patient's two thumbs firmly with thin hemp rope. Place large moxa cones on four spots: the sides of both thumbnails and the fleshy corners of both thumbs. Ignite all four spots; if any spot does not ignite, the treatment is ineffective. Seven moxa cones are considered miraculous. (From *Qin Cheng Zu Fang*)
For possession by mountain spirits, tree spirits, foxes, insects, snakes, etc.: Wrap the head with the patient's own trousers. The demon will laugh loudly and leave, never to return. Demons originally seek to steal human vital essence but prefer cleanliness. Seeing dirty cloth wrapped around the head indicates the person is unclean, so they abandon it. This also disrupts them by exploiting their love for cleanliness. For non-corporeal entities that press on people during sleep, this method is also effective. (From *Shi Shi Mi Lu*)
Mantra-based exorcism: Take five fen each of Realgar (Xionghuang) and Atractylodes Rhizome (Cangzhu), and three fen of high-quality moxa floss. Grind into powder and make pills. While making pills, devoutly recite the Dipper Mantra 21 times. Secretly keep the pill in the left hand. When the patient begins speaking evil words, place the pill on the middle joint of the right middle finger and burn it. It need not be fully burned to achieve immediate recovery. (From *Yue Tan Zhu Shi Yan Fang*)
Ritual to inform the Earth God: Invite five "Earth Horses" (ritual substitutes for deities), writing down the names of the gods of East, West, South, North, and Center. If no Earth Horses are available, write them on paper to serve as tablets. Use several small fish, one piece of meat, one duck egg, and five rice dumplings. Place these in five plates colored green, yellow, red, white, and black respectively (East-Green, West-White, South-Red, North-Black, Center-Yellow). Prepare five sets of candle holders and incense burners, offering them according to directions in one altar. Write five yellow paper petitions detailing the patient's birth date/time and the cause of illness. Pray devoutly at the site of earth movement. After finishing prayers for the East, burn the Eastern deity horse, discard the gifts along with candles and incense burners. If there is water in the empty eastern area, throw the items into the water. Repeat this process for Southwest and North. After praying for all four directions, burn and send off the Central deity horse. Dig a pit at the site of earth movement, fill it with the ashes of the deity horse and gifts. When digging soil again, secretly take a handful of soil back. Have the patient blow one breath onto it, wrap it in paper (do not let others see), go to a secluded place where no one is around, discard the paper package, and return home.
