Ma Yun states: The first two sections discuss heat diseases, hence the chapter title. The latter two sections discuss labor wind (Laofeng) and kidney wind (Shenfeng).
Yin-Yang Intersection (Yin Yang Jiao): Hua Shou explains that "intersection" means interlacing. Zhang Jingyue states that when yang pathogenic factors intersect into the yin aspect, the yin qi cannot maintain its position, thus it is called Yin-Yang Intersection. Wang Ang cites the *Da Lun of Five Movements and Six Transformations*, stating: "Death occurs if the cun and chi pulses are reversed; death occurs in Yin-Yang Intersection." This refers to pulse diagnosis. I verify this with the *Biographies of Cang Gong*, which states: "Heat disease with Yin-Yang Intersection results in death," which confirms this meaning.
Without Assistance (Wu Bi): Wang Ji argues that grain qi transforms into essence. Now, since one cannot eat, there is no essence to be assisted or nourished. Gao Shishi explains that "bi" means to assist or nourish. I verify that the character "bi" is defined in the *Erya · Shi Gu* as "to make" or "to cause," and in the *Shuowen Jiezi* as "benefit." Wang Bing relies on the *Erya*, while Wang Ji and Gao Shishi rely on the *Shuowen*; both interpretations are valid.
Disease Lingers (Bing Er Liu Zhe): I verify that the *Xin Zheng* commentary cites the *Jia Yi Jing*, writing "and heat lingers." I follow this reading.
Pulse Remains Restless and Exuberant (Mai Shang Zao Sheng): Ma Yun cites the *Ling Shu · Heat Disease Chapter*: "In heat disease, if sweat has been produced but the pulse remains restless and rapid with panting, and fever recurs, do not puncture the skin. If panting is severe, death ensues." It also states: "In heat disease, if sweat has been produced but the pulse remains restless and exuberant, this is the extreme of yin pulses. Death ensues."
Three Deaths (San Si): Ma Yun states: 1. Fever recurs immediately after sweating, accompanied by inability to eat; 2. Pulse remains restless and exuberant after sweating; 3. Delirious speech and loss of mental clarity occur after sweating. I verify that Wang Bing considers "inability to overcome the disease" as the second death. Examining the preceding text, this refers to the syndrome where the pulse remains restless and exuberant after sweating. Therefore, I follow Ma Yun's interpretation. Zhang Zhicong states: 1. Disease lingers without resolving; 2. Stomach qi is exhausted; 3. Kidney qi is exhausted. Since stomach qi exhaustion and kidney qi exhaustion are not mentioned in the preceding text, this annotation is incorrect.
Wind Jue (Feng Jue): Zhang Jingyue notes that the meaning of Wind Jue varies. In this chapter, it refers to Taiyang and Shaoyin diseases. In the *Treatise on Differentiating Yin and Yang*, it says: "Disease onset involving Two Yang and One Yin is named Wind Jue," referring to the Stomach and Liver. In the *Five Changes Chapter*, it says: "Those prone to Wind Jue with profuse sweating have weak flesh and loose interstices." Gao Shishi explains: Following the discussion on death from recurrent fever after sweating, he raises the question of a disease presenting with sweating, irritability, and chest fullness. Wind is a yang pathogen, characterized by opening and dispersing. Any case of sweating with body heat is due to wind. Sweat is yin fluid, exiting outward to the yang aspect. Now, sweating accompanied by persistent heart vexation and chest fullness indicates exhaustion of yin and deficiency of yang, failing to interact and support each other; this is Jue. Thus, wind causes sweating, and sweating leads to Jue; the disease is named Wind Jue. I verify with the *Biographies of Cang Gong*: "Wind Jue with chest fullness... yang qi exhausts and yin qi enters. When yin qi enters and expands, cold qi ascends and hot qi descends, causing chest fullness and sweating." This differs slightly from the current text.
Taiyang Governs Qi (Ju Yang Zhu Qi): Zhang Zhicong states: Ju Yang is Taiyang. Taiyang qi governs the exterior. Wind is a yang pathogen that damages human yang qi. The interaction of two yangs results in heat disease. Shaoyin and Taiyang are interior-exterior pairs. When yang heat is above, yin qi follows it upward. Following upward leads to Jue Ni (reversal).
Taking Decoction (Fu Tang): Zhang Jingyue states this aligns with the *Mai Du Chapter*: "For deficiency, drink medicine to tonify." I verify that ancient texts referred to medicinal decoctions simply as "tang." The *Biography of Hua Tuo* mentions "administering tang to purge," resulting in the expulsion of a male fetus. Zhang Zhicong suggests it refers to plain boiled water to aid fluid secretion for sweating; this is an error.
Labor Wind (Laofeng): Zhang Jingyue defines it as wind contracted due to labor/fatigue. Wang Shi defines "labor" as kidney fatigue. While plausible, "labor" covers many conditions, likely not limited to the kidney meridian. Ma Yun suggests the text refers to general labor syndromes in medical classics. I verify that this describes a condition of acute fatigue followed by wind contraction. There are no records of labor syndromes curing via expectoration of green-yellow nasal discharge. Thus, Ma's note is unreliable. (*Zhu Bing Yuan Hou Lun · Wind-Heat Syndrome* states: Weak pores allow wind-heat to damage skin and hair first, then enter the lungs. Symptoms include aversion to wind/cold, trembling, eyes feeling like they will pop out, and discharge of mucus/saliva. If not improving within 3-5 days... after 7-8 days, small green-yellow purulent sputum resembling a pill emerges from mouth/nose, which is favorable. If not expelled, it damages the lungs, leading to coughing up pus and blood. This is the Laofeng discussed here. See *Medical Mirror* for detailed discussion under Cough.) Ye Wenling's *Medical Principles* states Laofeng belongs to the category of Spasm disorders. "Qiang Shang" resembles opisthotonos. "Ming Shi" means open eyes but unable to see. Treatment should align with Spasm disorders. Wang Haogu's *Medical Fortress Original Records* incorrectly identifies this as Lung萎 (Fei Wei). Prescriptions are in *Sheng Ji Zong Lu*, Vol. 13.
Method Located Below the Lung (Fa Zai Fei Xia): Wu Kun states the pathogen affects the area below the lung, specifically between the 4th, 5th, and 6th thoracic vertebrae. Zhang Jingyue agrees.
Stiff Neck and Dim Vision (Qiang Shang Ming Shi): I verify the *Mai Jie Chapter*: "Stiff neck pulling to the back is due to excessive rising of yang qi competing." Wang Bing annotates "Qiang Shang" as stiffness of the head and neck, consistent with this note. Ma Yun and Zhang Zhicong follow this. Wu Kun and Zhang Jingyue follow Yang Shangshan, which is likely incorrect. The *Qian Jin Fang* reads "tense neck and dizzy eyes," suggesting "Ming Shi" equates to dizziness/vertigo.
Expectorating Like Mucus (Tuo Chu Ru Ti): Wu Kun states lung fluids become thick and sticky due to wind-heat steaming, so expectoration resembles nasal mucus. The lung governs skin and hair; once damaged, true organ qi fails to nourish the exterior, causing aversion to wind and chills. *Medical Mirror* states expectorating like mucus is a sign of phlegm-fluid overflowing upward. I verify that the character for "phlegm" (tan) did not exist in ancient times; "expectorating like mucus" refers to vomiting sticky phlegm.
To Rescue Flexion and Extension (Yi Jiu Fu Yang): Wu Kun states wind-heat below the lung causes distension, making flexion and extension difficult; thus, treatment must rescue these movements.
Taiyang Guides Essence (Ju Yang Yin Jing): Wu Kun states Taiyang and Kidney are interior-exterior pairs. The Kidney is the residence of essence. Essence is yin substance and cannot move on its own; it requires Taiyang qi to guide it for excretion. Hence, "Taiyang guides essence." This applies to young and vigorous individuals whose water (kidney yin) can control fire, allowing recovery in three days. Middle-aged individuals have weaker essence than the young, recovering in five days. Elderly individuals have exhausted Tian Gui (essence), described as "not having essence." Lack of essence means true yin decline, insufficient to control fire, requiring seven days for recovery. Zhang Jingyue adds that wind pathogens attacking the lung enter via Bladder Meridian points Fengmen and Feishu. Taiyang is the reservoir of water and the exterior of Three Yang. Guiding essence upward helps disperse wind through cough. Recovery time depends on age/strength: 3 days for strong Taiyang, 5 days for middle-aged, 7 days for elderly. *Medical Mirror* suggests urgently guiding Taiyang upward, which is likely incorrect.
Expectoring Green-Yellow Nasal Discharge (Ke Chu Qing Huang Ti): *Qian Jin Fang* adds "thick" before "ti." Zhang Jingyue states recovery occurs upon expectorating green-yellow phlegm/mucus, as described below, which corresponds to guiding essence. Zhang Lu notes that pill-sized masses are accumulated phlegm blocking lung orifices, indicating intense pathogenic accumulation.
If Expelled from Nose (Ruo Bi Zhong Chu): *Qian Jin Fang* adds "is favorable" after "chu." Wang Bing's annotation on the accumulation gate refers to the opening connecting the throat to the nose, cited from *Ling Shu · Ying Qi Chapter*. The *Xin Zheng* commentary failed to verify this source.
If Not Expelled, Damages Lung (Bu Chu Ze Shang Fei): Zhang Jingyue states failure to expectorate mucus corresponds to modern dry cough. It may lead to depletion of Metal and Water, signs of consumptive disease, resulting in death.
Kidney Wind (Shen Feng): *Qi Bing Lun* states: The Emperor asks about a disease with edema resembling water retention, large tight pulse, no body pain, thin body, anorexia, and low food intake. Qibo replies: The disease originates in the Kidney and is named Kidney Wind. I verify this should be cross-referenced with *Qi Bing Lun* and *Feng Lun*.
Facial Swelling (Mian Pang Ran): *Jia Yi Jing* adds "swollen" after "Pang." Wu Kun defines Pang as swelling. Zhang Jingyue defines it as pitting edema. Pang ran describes a pale/discolored appearance. Zhang Zhigao defines it as swollen appearance. I verify *Shan Hai Jing*: A plant called Huang Guan grows on Bamboo Mountain; bathing with it cures scabies and edema. Guo Pu annotates "Cu" as swelling, supporting Wu and Zhang. Ma Yun and Zhang Zhicong argue Pang refers to the dorsum of the foot, linking it to "Fu." However, *Shui Re Xue Lun* says "overflowing to skin causes Fu swelling," questioning if it refers to the foot. Gao Shishi defines Fu as inside/outside skin, likely misreading *Shui Re Xue Lun*. Wang Bing annotates Pang ran in *Qi Bing Lun* as facial swelling with discoloration, differing slightly. His annotation in *Feng Lun* matches this chapter. *Guang Yun* defines Pang as "illness distress," unrelated here. Suspecting Pang is variant for Pang (large/swollen). *Qi Bing Lun* uses Pang. *Shuowen* defines Pang as large stone or thick. *Yupian* defines it as large. Thus Pang ran means large/swollen appearance. Characters with moon radical belong to "Fu" type. Zhang's note is incorrect.
Obstruction Harming Speech (Yong Hai Yu Yan): Wu Kun states facial swelling and obstruction result from Kidney Wind merging upward, causing blockage that harms speech. Zhang Jingyue defines Yong as heavy and turbid. Wind disease impairs Kidney pulses, causing obstruction harming speech. I verify Wang and Wu attach "Yong" to the previous sentence; Zhang attaches it to the next. Zhang Zhigao follows Zhang. I follow Zhang's interpretation.
Can Be Punctured? (Ke Ci Bu): Ma Yun states "Bu" is equivalent to "No" (Fou).
Intermittent Heat Rising from Chest/Back to Head, Sweating, Hot Hands, Dry Mouth, Bitter Taste, Thirst (Shi Re Cong Xiong Bei Shang Zhi Tou Han Chu Shou Re Kou Gan Ku Ke): Ma Ben separates "Han Chu" and "Shou Re" as two-character phrases, and "Kou Gan Ku Ke" as four characters. Zhang Ben groups "Han Chu Shou Re" and "Kou Gan Ku Ke" as four-character phrases. Gao Shishi agrees. Zhang Zhicong treats all as two-character phrases. Wu Ben matches original. I verify Zhang Ben is likely correct. "Ku Ke" implies bitter taste and thirst. The text later says "bitter mouth and dry tongue."
Unable to Lie Flat (Bu Neng Zheng Yan): Wu Kun states "Yan" means lying supine.
Wind Edema (Feng Shui): Zhang Jingyue states Kidney governs water; wind in Kidney meridian is named Wind Edema. Zhang Zhicong states the name arises because wind moves water. Gao Shishi states Kidney Wind involves wind pathogen affecting Kidney; wind moves water, hence the name. Ma Yun notes Wind Edema appears in *Shui Re Xue Lun*, *Qi Bing Lun*, and *Lun Ji Zhen Chi Pian*. I verify the Wind Edema in this chapter results from mistaken puncture of Kidney Wind, similar to how Warm Disease becoming burning hot after sweating is named Wind Warmth in *Shang Han Lun*. It differs slightly from *Shui Re Xue Lun* etc. (*Shui Re Xue Lun*: Kidney sweat meets wind, transmits to Fu swelling, originating in Kidney, named Wind Edema. *Jin Gui Yao Lue*: Wind Edema has floating pulse, external symptoms of joint pain, aversion to wind. Also: Cun-kou pulse deep and slippery indicates internal water qi, facial swelling with heat, named Wind Edema.)
Discussion in Acupuncture Methods (Lun Zai Ci Fa Zhong): Zhang Jingyue refers to *Shui Re Xue Lun*. Zhang Zhigao agrees.
Where Pathogen Assembles (Xie Zhi Suo Cou): *Shuowen* defines "Cou" as where people gather on water. *Yupian* defines it as advancing competitively.
Pressing Upward on the Lung (Shang Po Fei Ye): *Bing Neng Pian* asks why one cannot lie flat. Qibo answers: Lung is the canopy of organs. Lung qi excess makes pulses large; large pulses prevent lying flat.
Startled When Lying Down (Wo Ze Jing): Zhang Zhicong states Stomach collaterals connect to Heart. Yang qi entering Yin causes Yin-Yang conflict, leading to fear/startle. Gao Shishi states Water qi overwhelms Heart.
Disease Rooted in Stomach (Bing Ben Yu Wei): Zhang Jingyue states Spleen/Stomach belong to Earth, controlling Water. If Earth is weak, Cold Water insults it, causing abdominal borborygmus and inability to eat.
Heavy Body, Difficulty Walking (Shen Zhong Nan Yi Xing): Zhang Jingyue states Stomach governs muscles, its meridian runs on the legs. Water qi residing in flesh causes heaviness and inability to walk.
Closing of Uterine Collaterals (Bao Mai Bi Ye): Zhang Jingyue states Bao is the uterus. Ma Yun observes amenorrhea seems to discuss women. However, men with Kidney Wind share all symptoms except this one, which differs.
