[Bei Ji Wan (Emergency Preparedness Pill)]
Crotonis Fructus Preparatus (Badou Shuang, Croton Seed Frost) [prepared by removing skin, heart, and membrane, grinding into paste, expressing oil] 1 liang; Rheae Radix et Rhizoma (Dahuang, Rhubarb Root and Rhizome) 1 liang; Zingiberis Rhizoma (Sheng Ganjiang, Dried Ginger) 2 liang.
All ingredients must be fine and fresh. First, pound the Rhubarb Root and Dried Ginger into powder. Then, grind the Croton Seed Frost in a mortar with the powder, pounding one thousand times, to prepare as a powder. It is also good to mix with honey to form pills.
"Bei" means to prepare in advance, keeping it ready for use; "Ji" means timely, referring to the urgency of the situation. The *Jin Gui Yao Lue* records using Bei Ji Wan to rescue patients suffering from sudden evil invasion or external pathogenic factors causing coma and lockjaw, aiming to rapidly purge the pathogenic factors.
[Zijin Dan (Purple Gold Pill)]
Sinapis Semen Album (Baijiezi, White Mustard Seed), Spermacostae Radix (Gansui, Kansui Root) [core removed], Euphorbiae Pekinensis Radix (Daji, Peking Spurge Root) [skin removed], each in equal parts.
Pound all ingredients into fine powder, bind with starch paste to form pills. Take 5 to 7 pills, up to 10 pills per dose, with ginger decoction before bedtime.
"Kong" means to draw or pull; "Xian" is pronounced like "xian," referring to salivation or fluid flow, describing the appearance of water flowing. It implies drawing out phlegm-fluids from the San Jiao through the water passages. White Mustard Seed is white and enters the Lung meridian to benefit Qi and resolve phlegm; Kansui Root and Peking Spurge Root drain water and expel fluid retention. One must carefully assess the syndrome before use.
[Discussion on Sulfur and Niter Formula / Yu Zhen Wan Context]

Only Li Shizhen (Dongbi) knew this. He stated that using Sulfur together with Saltpeter combines the two Qi, regulates Yin and Yang, and possesses the function of ascending and descending Water and Fire, treating cold pain, hot pain, and tension-related headaches. What profound words!

Xinshi, i.e., White Arsenic, is highly toxic. It must be refined properly so as not to harm the human body. For every 1 qian of White Arsenic, grind it evenly with 1 liang of Gypsum Fibrosum, store in a silver melting jar...
