None of the various versions contain the character "Pian" (Chapter). Ma Yun states that the various syndromes discussed in this chapter are not limited to chills and fever, but since the first section mainly discusses chills and fever, the chapter is named accordingly. However, the chills and fever here primarily refer to conditions caused by external pathogenic factors, which differ from the chills and fever associated with scrofula (lymph node tuberculosis of the neck).
Cannot lean on the mat: Zhang Yun explains that because the pathogen is in the exterior, the patient fears coming close to the bed or mat.
Dry and shriveled nose: Ma Yun explains that "La" means dry. It refers to the nostrils becoming dry and shriveled like cured meat.
Take the collaterals of the Three Yang meridians: Ma Yun says one should select the Luo-connecting point Feiyang (BL58) of the Foot-Taiyang Bladder Meridian to drain the pathogen, as the Taiyang meridian belongs to the Three Yang meridians.
Take the Three Yang below: Ma Yun notes that since no specific acupoint names are mentioned, they must all refer to Luo-connecting points.
No place for comfort (ends in death and incurable): In the *Jia Yi Jing* (Systematic Classic of Acupuncture and Moxibustion), the character "Bing" (Disease) is written as "Tong" (Pain). Zhang Yun states that when Yin qi overacts, restlessness inevitably occurs, so the patient feels unable to find a comfortable position. If Yin fluid is damaged, body fluids are depleted, leading to incessant sweating. Teeth are considered the surplus of bone; if the teeth are not yet withered, it indicates that Yin qi is still sufficient, and this condition alone can be treated by needling the Luo-connecting point Dazhong (KI11) of the Foot-Shaoyin Kidney Meridian. If the teeth show a withered color, it signifies exhaustion of Yin qi, and death is inevitable. From my recent observation, not only withered teeth indicate a critical prognosis; any case with withered fingernails is also critical. This applies equally to cases of cold bones and cold extremities. The commentary notes that Ma's interpretation—that the progression from skin chills/fever to bone chills/fever represents a deepening process leading to death—is likely incorrect. Furthermore, examining the textual style, the absence of mentions regarding pulse chills/fever or tendon chills/fever suggests possible textual loss.
Bone Jue (Reversal): Zhi Yun states this refers to disease of the Kidney organ resulting in rebellious heat of Kidney Qi. The commentary notes that diseases of the Foot-Shaoyin Meridian are called Bone Jue, as seen in the *Meridians Chapter*.
Bone Bi (Obstruction) (ends in tonify): Zhang Yun states that Bone Bi is a disease in the Yin aspect. Pain and inability to move the joints, along with profuse sweating and vexation, also indicate a disease in the Yin aspect. When true Yin is insufficient, pathogens remain stagnant within; therefore, one should select the Jing-River points of the Three Yin meridians, observe the location of the pathology, and apply tonification. According to the *Five Pathogens Chapter*: "When pathogen is in the Kidney, it causes bone pain and Yin Bi; take Yongquan (KI1) and Kunlun (BL60); if blood appears, drain all of it." This complements the current text and should be consulted. The commentary clarifies that "Ju" means to join together, implying joint pain preventing movement. Ma's statement that Bone Bi has become a joint disease causing pain upon movement is incorrect. Ma also altered "Yin" to "Yang" based on another version, which Zhi Yun followed; this is also incorrect.
Body injury (ends at Guanyuan): In the *Jia Yi Jing*, "Xie Duo" (Lassitude) is written as "Jie". Ma Yun explains that after a bodily injury with significant blood loss, if wind-cold invades the wound (this condition resembles what later medicine calls tetanus), or due to falling trauma regardless of bleeding, the limbs become lassaude. This syndrome is named "Ti Duo" (Body Lassitude). One should needle the acupoint where the three meridians intersect below the umbilicus. Since this meridian is the Ren Mai (Conception Vessel), and the meridians of the Foot-Yangming Stomach and Foot-Taiyin Spleen also converge here, it is called the "Three Meridian Intersection." This refers to the acupoint Guanyuan (CV4), located three cun below the umbilicus. The commentary notes that Zhang also classifies this under tetanus, but this is likely incorrect. The *Jia Yi Jing* states that Guanyuan is the intersection of the Foot Three Yin meridians and the Ren Mai, hence the name.
Jue Bi (ends in tonify Yin meridians): Zhang Yun states that Jue (reversal/cold extremities) originates in the four limbs. When Jue is accompanied by Bi obstruction and the qi rebels upward to the abdomen, one should select the Luo-connecting point Gongsun (SP4) of the Foot-Taiyin Spleen Meridian and Fenglong (ST40) of the Foot-Yangming Stomach Meridian, as the treatment for abdominal and limb disorders lies in the Spleen and Stomach. However, one must determine whether the primary disease involves Yin or Yang meridians to select points. The Yangming meridians tend toward excess, so draining is appropriate; the Taiyin meridians tend toward deficiency, so tonifying is appropriate. The commentary criticizes Ma for grouping points up to Tianfu (LU6) as treatments for Jue Bi, which is likely incorrect.
Arterial pulse on the side of the neck - Renying: Zhang Yun states that the midline of the anterior neck is the Ren Mai. The pulsating arteries on both sides are the Renying (ST9) acupoints of the Foot-Yangming Stomach Meridian.
Ying Jin (Neck Tendons): Zhang Yun cites the *Shuo Wen Jie Zi*: "Ying means neck ornament." Thus, the tendons on the side of the neck are called Ying Jin. The *Tong Ping Xu Shi Lun* mentions stabbing the Ying Mai for abscesses. Wang Bing's commentary states that Ying Mai is also the Foot-Yangming meridian, named so because it is near the ribbon of a hat (Ying).
Futu: Zhang Yun states it is located in the third row of the neck.
Foot-Shaoyang Meridian: Ma Yun argues this should read "Hand-Shaoyang," citing the *Ben Shu Chapter* (Section 13) which mentions Hand-Shaoyang named Tianyou, supported by the six pulses. Zhang agrees.
Tianyou: Zhang Yun states it is located in the sixth row of the neck.
Tianzhu: Zhang Yun states it is located in the seventh row of the neck.
Arm-Taiyin: Zhang Yun states this is the Hand-Taiyin Lung Meridian. The above five acupoints are detailed in the *Ben Shu Chapter* and are used to treat the diseases described below.
Yang Ying Headache: The *Jia Yi Jing* writes "Ying" as "Ni" (Rebellious). Zhang Yun states Ying means Ni. When Yang pathogen rebels in the Yang meridians causing headache and chest fullness, one should select Renying (ST9). The commentary notes Zhang follows Lou's *Gang Mu*, while Ma's alteration to "Yangming" is erroneous.
Sudden Aphonia and Stiff Qi: The *Jia Yi Jing* writes the character as "Ying" (Stiff). Zhang Yun explains "Yin" means hoarse voice/inability to speak. "Qi Ying" means stiffness of the throat and tongue. "Sudden" implies acute Qi rebellion, not chronic disease. Ma Yun suggests "Ying" should be "Geng" (Blockage). Zhi Yun states "Ying" and "Geng" are synonymous. The commentary adopts Zhang's note.
Sudden Deafness and Mental Clouding: Zhang Yun states that when meridian Qi is clouded, causing sudden hearing and vision impairment, one should select Tianyou (TE16).
Sudden Spasm, Epilepsy, Vertigo, and Inability to Bear Weight: The *Jia Yi Jing* adds "pain wanting to break" after "foot." Ma Yun explains sudden spasm as contracture, sudden epilepsy as seizures, and sudden vertigo as dizziness. Combined with the inability to bear weight on the feet, one should select Tianzhu (BL10).
Sudden Dan and Internal Rebellion: The *Jia Yi Jing* writes "Dan" as "Bi." Ma Yun describes sudden high fever with internal Qi rebellion as fighting between Fire pathogens of the Liver and Lung meridians, causing blood to overflow from the nose and mouth. Zhang Yun defines "Dan" as a heat disease. Zhi Yun defines "Dan" as Xiao Dan (wasting-thirst syndrome) and "Su Dan" as sudden thirst. The Liver meridian passes through the Lung; thus, rebellion of Hand-Taiyin Qi causes Liver-Lung conflict. The Lung governs Qi and the Liver governs Blood; Qi rebellion leads to Blood stagnation and upward overflow. As the source of water metabolism, conflict prevents fluid generation, causing sudden Dan. All these should be treated by selecting Tianfu (LU4) of the Hand-Taiyin Lung Meridian to smooth the rebellious Qi. These sudden diseases are acute Jue syndromes caused by Qi rebellion, hence the use of "sudden." The commentary rejects Zhi's interpretation of "sudden thirst."
This is the Great Window of the Stomach, Five Parts: The *Jia Yi Jing* reads "This is the Great Five Parts of the Stomach." Ma Yun states "Da" should be "Tian." This sentence summarizes the previous five sections, referring to the Tianyou Five Parts. "Tianyou Five Parts" uses one acupoint to represent five, similar to how a prescription uses one herb to represent many. Zhang Yun states Tianyou is central, governing front, back, upper, and lower. Zhi Yun compares the head and face acupoints to large windows of a building for ventilation. The commentary finds Zhi's explanation forced.
Arm-Yangming (ends in drain if no aversion to cold): Ma Yun identifies Arm-Yangming as the Hand-Yangming Large Intestine Meridian, called "Arm" because its pathway runs along the arm. Its branch ascends from Quepen, passes Tianding (SI11) and Futu (LI16), enters the cheek, goes into the lower gum, emerges around the mouth, crosses the philtrum, and ascends alongside the nostrils, connecting with the Foot-Yangming via Heliao (SI18) and Yingxiang (LI20). Thus, it is called Arm-Yangming. The point Daying (ST5) is where the Hand-Yangming meridian intersects with the Foot-Yangming. Tooth pain is called Qu (caries); thus, lower tooth caries should be treated using Arm-Yangming points (Shangyang LI1, Erjian LI2, Sanjian LI3 treat tooth pain). Aversion to cold and drinking indicates deficiency (tonify); lack of aversion indicates excess (drain). Zhang Yun notes "Qiu" refers to the zygoma. Arm aversion to cold is mostly deficiency (tonify); lack of aversion is mostly excess (drain). The commentary finds Ma's connection of "Arm" to the previous sentence plausible but questions interpreting "aversion to cold" as "aversion to cold drinks."
Foot-Taiyang (ends in emerge outside the nose): The *Jia Yi Jing* changes "Foot" to "Hand." One version says take points emerging outside the nose; another says outside the eyebrow. At the onset of disease, excess requires draining, deficiency requires tonifying. Ma Yun states the Foot-Taiyang Bladder Meridian also enters the gums via the Jiaosun (TE17) point of the Hand-Shaoyang Sanjiao Meridian. Upper tooth caries involve the Foot-Yangming Stomach Meridian; points include Dicang (ST4) and Juliao (ST3). During peak pain, the pulse is excess (drain); if deficient, tonify. Another view suggests taking points outside the nose, such as Heliao (SI18) and Yingxiang (LI20).
Foot-Yangming (ends in benefit insufficiency): Some versions add "Fan Zhe Yi Qi" (If reversed, increase it) after "insufficiency." The *Jia Yi Jing* writes "Qi" as "Shen" (Very). Zhang Yun agrees "Qi" should be "Shen." Ma and Zhi incorrectly connect this to the next section. Zhang Yun explains the Foot-Yangming meridian passes through the nose to the face via Xuanlu (GB5), descends to the mouth, and ascends to the eyes. Any pathology in the eye or mouth can be treated, but one must assess excess or deficiency to apply tonification or draining. Reversing this will worsen the disease. The commentary rejects Zhi's claim that Foot-Yangming should be Hand-Taiyang. "Duikou" refers to below Yuzhen; brain abscesses are known as "Duikou," illustrating this.
Foot-Taiyang (ends in excess causes closed eyes): Ma Yun states that for head and eye pain, select Yuzhen (BL9). Jingming (BL1) is the intersection of Yin and Yang Qiao vessels, dividing wakefulness and sleep. The Foot-Taiyang Bladder Meridian enters the brain via Yuzhen (1.5 cun lateral to Du Mai, 2 cun above hairline on occiput). This is the root of the eyes; all eye connections attach here, hence "Eye System." For headache or eye pain, select this point. The pulse is between the two tendons in the neck, entering the brain and separating from Yin/Yang Qiao. It is an intersection of Yin/Yang meridians. The Yang Qiao enters Yin, and Yin Qiao exits Yang, intersecting at Jingming (BL1) in the outer canthus. Excess Yang Qiao Qi causes inability to close the eyes; excess Yin Qiao Qi causes inability to open them. Zhang Yun cites the *Mai Du Chapter* stating Qiao vessels belong to the inner canthus and merge with Taiyang. The *Re Bing Chapter* states red painful eyes start from the inner canthus, treated by Yin Qiao. Thus, "outer canthus" here should be "inner canthus." Zhi Yun defines outer corner as sharp, applying to both; the commentary rejects this, citing the *Dian Kuang Chapter* and Lou's *Gang Mu* supporting Zhang's view.
Heat Jue (ends in retain needle): Zhang Yun states Heat Jue is excess Yang pathogen and insufficient Yin Qi; treat by tonifying Foot-Taiyin and draining Foot-Shaoyang. Cold Jue is excess Yin pathogen and insufficient Yang Qi; treat by tonifying Foot-Yangming and draining Foot-Shaoyin. Tonification strengthens Spleen/Stomach to fill limbs; draining clears Water/Fire to expel pathogens. Needles must be retained long enough for draining to remove pathogen and tonification to arrive. This应与 *Zhong Shi Chapter* cross-referenced. The commentary notes Ma's swap of Shaoyang/Shao Yin is incorrect.
Tong Flaccidity and Drooling: Zhang Yun states the following three sections discuss both cold and heat Jue. Tong flaccidity, drooling, and vexation indicate insufficient Kidney Yin failing to secure fluids; treat by tonifying Foot-Shaoyin.
Chills and Shivering (ends in only take Hand-Taiyin): Zhang Yun explains "Gu Han" is shivering cheeks. These signs indicate insufficient Yang Qi; treat by tonifying Hand-Taiyin Lung Meridian.
Tonify Deficiency (ends in pierce its arrival): Zhang Yun explains piercing "departure" follows and supports Qi; piercing "arrival" meets and drains pathogen. This phrase appears in the *Wei Qi Xing Chapter*.
Spring Take Collaterals (ends in treat Marrow): Zhang Yun states spring/summer point selection matches *Si Shi Qi Chapter* and *Shui Re Xue Lun*. Autumn takes Qikou (LU9) corresponding to Metal/Lung. Winter takes Jing-Shu points connecting to Zang organs. Collaterals are superficial, treating skin; Fen Li (interstices) treat muscle; Qikou is the meeting of pulses, treating sinews; Jing-Shu connects to Zang, treating marrow. Note: "Jing-Shu" here generally means Jing points, not specifically Shu points. *Shui Re Xue Lun* uses Five Shu points (Autumn Jing-Shu, Winter Jing-Ring); this text uses interior/exterior distinction (Collaterals-Skin, Jing-Shu-Marrow). Understand the intent. "Qi" equals "Ji" (dose/formula). Herbs have herbal formulas; needles have bi-doses.
Five Parts of the Body Related to Five Zang (ends in those with carbuncles die): The commentary lists five critical areas related to internal Zang: 1. Fubu (ST32 area, Stomach Meridian vital point); 2. Feichang (Calf, connected to Bladder, Kidney, Sanjiao); 3. Back (Du Mai midline, Bladder Meridian sides, vital for Zang Qi); 4. Back-Shu points of Five Zang (Feishu BL13 to Shenshu BL23, 1.5 cun lateral); 5. Neck (Du Mai, governor of Yang). Carbuncles/ulcers here are fatal. Wang notes Yang toxins may be treatable; Yin toxins are not. Liu's *Yu Ji Wei Yi* states these are pulse intersections connected to viscera; early diagnosis and correct treatment prevent death. The commentator distinguishes Yang (carbuncle) and Yin (ulcer), criticizing their conflation, referencing Wang Hongxu's *Quan Sheng Ji*. The five parts correspond to Yin ulcers: Fubu ulcer, calf ulcer, back ulcer, Spleen/Kidney Shu ulcers, and Tianzhu ulcer.
Disease Starts in Arm (ends in stop in Yin): The commentary notes this section appears in *Jia Yi Jing* under Cold Damage/Heat Disease and *Su Wen: Ci Re Pian*. Ma and Zhang incorrectly link it to carbuncle treatment. Zhang Yun identifies Arm as Taiyin Lung and Foot as Yangming Stomach. The *Re Bing Chapter* states for sweating, take Yuji (LU10), Taiyuan (LU9), Dadu (SP2), Taibai (SP3). Draining removes heat; tonifying induces sweat. These are Ying-Shu points of Hand/Foot Taiyin. "Arm Taiyin" refers to Yuji and Taiyuan. "Foot Yangming" should similarly use Ying-Shu points: Neiting (ST44) and Xianggu (ST43). Tonifying Taiyin with excessive sweating indicates Yin excess; tonify Yangming to stop it. Draining Taiyin with excessive sweating indicates Yang excess; drain Yangming to stop it. Balance Yin/Yang to stop sweat. The same logic applies to Yang meridians.
Harm of Needling (ends in generates carbuncles): This section is found in the *Jiu Zhen Shi Er Yuan Chapter*.
