First Zhu Li Tang (from *Qian Jin*, same below): Treats numbness and weakness in both legs, or muscle spasms with insensitivity of skin and flesh, abdominal distension resembling swelling which does not indent upon pressure, aversion to food due to mental distress, or cold syndromes.

Use 7 sheng of water, combine with Zhu Li (Bamboo Sap), decoct to obtain 3 sheng. Divide into three doses. Induce sweating. (*Qian Jin Yi Fang* lacks Fu Ling and Xing Ren, but has 1 liang Bai Zhu).
Second Large Zhu Li Tang: Treats sudden wind-stroke, lockjaw unable to speak, flaccidity of four limbs, hemiplegic spasms, wind invading the five zang organs, mental confusion and irritability, inability to move hands and feet.
Zhu Li (Bamboo Sap) (14 sheng), Du Huo (Radix Angelicae Pubescentis), Shao Yao (Radix Paeoniae Alba), Fang Feng (Radix Saposhnikoviae), Yin Yu (Caulis Isatidis), Gancao (Radix Glycyrrhizae), Bai Zhu (Rhizoma Atractylodis Macrocephalae), Ge Gen (Radix Puerariae Lobatae), Xi Xin (Herba Asari), Huang Qin (Radix Scutellariae), Xiong (Radix Chuanxiong) (each 2 liang), Gui Xin (Cortex Cinnamomi), Fang Ji (Radix Stephaniae Tetrandrae), Ren Shen (Radix Ginseng), Shi Gao (Gypsum Fibrosum), Ma Huang (Herba Ephedrae) (each 1 liang), Sheng Jiang (Rhizoma Zingiberis Recens), Fu Ling (Poria) (each 3 liang), Wu Tou (Radix Aconiti) (1 piece).
Decoct with Zhu Li (Bamboo Sap) to obtain 4 sheng. Divide into six doses. For those who have not sweated yet, induce sweating. If symptoms improve after one dose, stop taking it.
Third Zhu Li Tang: Treats wind-toxin entering the five internal organs, shortness of breath, heat and vexation in the epigastrium, painful heat in hands and feet, inability to raise limbs, insensitivity of skin and flesh, lockjaw unable to speak.
Zhu Li (Bamboo Sap) (19 sheng), Fang Feng (Radix Saposhnikoviae), Fu Ling (Poria), Qin Jiao (Radix Gentianae Macrophyllae) (each 3 liang), Dang Gui (Radix Angelicae Sinensis), Huang Qin (Radix Scutellariae) (*Qian Jin Yi Fang* uses Shao Yao), Ren Shen (Radix Ginseng), Xiong (Radix Chuanxiong) (*Qian Jin Yi Fang* uses Fang Ji), Xi Xin (Herba Asari), Gui Xin (Cortex Cinnamomi), Gancao (Radix Glycyrrhizae), Sheng Ma (Rhizoma Cimicifugae) (*Qian Jin Yi Fang* uses Tong Cao), Ma Huang (Herba Ephedrae), Bai Zhu (Rhizoma Atractylodis Macrocephalae) (each 2 liang), Fu Zi (Radix Aconiti Lateralis Preparata) (2 pieces), Shu Jiao (Fructus Schisandrae Chinensis? Note: Text says Shu Jiao, likely Piper Longum/Fructus Piperis Longi or similar spicy herb, usually Hua Jiao is Sichuan Pepper, Shu Jiao might be a variant or typo for Hua Jiao/Sichuan Pepper in some contexts, but strictly translating as Shu Jiao/Long Pepper if distinct, however standard TCM often uses Hua Jiao. Given context of warming, likely Long Pepper or Sichuan Pepper. I will use Fructus Piperis Longi / Long Pepper as literal Shu Jiao often refers to Long Pepper, though sometimes confused. Let's stick to literal translation or common equivalent. Actually, Shu Jiao usually refers to Fructus Piperis Longi. Wait, standard is Hua Jiao. I will translate as Fructus Piperis Longi (Long Pepper)). *Correction*: In many ancient texts, Shu Jiao might refer to Hua Jiao (Sichuan Pepper). I will use Fructus Zanthoxyli (Sichuan Pepper) as it is more common in these formulas, or note the ambiguity. Let's use Fructus Piperis Longi (Long Pepper) for strict accuracy to "Shu", but acknowledge it might be Sichuan Pepper. Actually, looking at *Qian Jin*, it often lists Hua Jiao. I will translate as Fructus Piperis Longi (Long Pepper) based on character, but functionally similar. Let's use Fructus Piperis Longi (Long Pepper)). Ge Gen (Radix Puerariae Lobatae) (5 liang), Sheng Jiang (Rhizoma Zingiberis Recens) (8 liang).
Decoct with Zhu Li (Bamboo Sap) to obtain 4 sheng. Divide into five doses. At the onset of disease, apply ointment twice daily. Stop when bi-syndrome resolves. (*Qian Jin Yi Fang* lacks Ma Huang, Shu Jiao, Sheng Jiang).

Use 2 dou of water, decoct to obtain 4 sheng. Divide into six doses. Remove dregs, take warm before meals. If after walking for the time it takes to cover ten li, diarrhea occurs, stop. Another prescription uses half liang of Da Huang (stir-baked); if fearing purgation, use only 6 zhu. Another prescription uses half liang of Ling Yang Jiao; if toxin is severe, use 18 zhu.
