[Che Zhi (Grease from Cart Axles)]
Indicated for sudden onset of heart pain and Zhong E Qi (sudden illness caused by evil qi), mix with warm wine, heat and stir well before ingestion. Also indicated for Du Ru (accumulation of milk in lactating women) and Ru Yong (acute suppurative mastitis); take Che Zhi, heat it by frying, apply externally, or alternatively mix with warm wine for oral administration. (Now attached)
Minister Yuxi et al. respectfully cite Chen Cangqi: Che Zhi is acrid in flavor and non-toxic. It treats Gui Qi (spiritual diseases or sudden mental abnormalities); melt it with warm wine and take hot.
Shenghui Fang: Treats Gu poison from toads and tadpoles, manifesting as abdominal distension and fullness, dry mouth with desire for water, inability to eat, restlessness and confusion, severe panting, and rising qi. The prescription uses Ban Sheng (half a sheng, approx. 0.5 liters) or more of Che Xia Zhi (grease from the wheel hub/axle cap), administered gradually; the Gu poison will be expelled.
Waitai Mi Yao: Treats otorrhea with pus and blood. Take Che Xia Zhi, wrap in cotton wool, and insert into the ear canal.
Qianjin Fang: Treats infantile fright crying. Take an amount of Che Xia Zhi the size of a small bean, place in the mouth or umbilicus; the condition will resolve.
Bieshuo says: Respectfully, applying Che Zhi to clothing prevents [stains/damage]... (Text fragment ends here).
[Gong Zhong Gao (Paste from Stove Interior)]
Indicated for Ni Chan (breech presentation); draw the paste on the soles of the fetal feet to correct position. Also indicated for Zhong Feng (stroke) and Fa Kuang (mania). Take an amount the size of a chicken egg, dissolve in warm vinegar by stirring, and ingest. (Now attached)
Qianjin Fang: Prescription for febrile disease in pregnant women: Take Che Xia Zhi for oral administration; it is highly effective, dosage at discretion. Another prescription: Treats abdominal pain during pregnancy. Burn Che Xia Zhi to ash/powder, mix with wine, and ingest at discretion.
Meishi Fang: Treats insects entering the ear. Apply Che Xia Zhi to the ear canal; the insect will exit spontaneously.
Zimu Milu: Treats Chou Yin Tuo (uterine prolapse postpartum). Burn Che Tou Zhi (grease from the stove head/front), mix with wine, divide into three warm doses; also treats cough.
[Zao Hui (Stove Ash)]
Indicated for Zheng Jia Jian Ji (hard accumulations and masses in the abdomen) and removing Xie E Qi (evil pathogenic qi).
Tao Hongjing states: This is the ash from iron stoves in current times, possessing the properties of iron. It is highly effective for treating Bao Zheng (sudden onset of mass-related disorders).
Minister Yuxi et al. respectfully cite Tang Ben Cao: It is used in pill formulations.
Chen Cangqi states: The black soil behind the stove flue (chimney) is non-toxic. It treats retention of the placenta after childbirth. Grind into powder, take a quantity held by three fingers, and administer with warm water or wine. Collect before dawn for best efficacy. Furthermore, hot ash from the stove mixed with vinegar can be used for moxibustion-like warming (Xi) on cold pain in the heart and abdomen, or colicky pain due to blood and qi stagnation; replace when cool.
Tu Jing Ben Cao records details under the entry for Duan Shi (Calcined Alunite).
Jingyan Fang: Treats Beng Zhong (metrorrhagia/heavy uterine bleeding) in women. Use Bai Cao Shuang (soot) 2 qian, mix evenly with dog bile, divide into two doses, and swallow with Dang Gui wine decoction.
Xu Shiquan Fang: Treats acute diarrhea and dysentery. Administer 2 qian of Bai Cao Shuang powder mixed with rice water.

Mix equal parts of Bai Cao Shuang and Bai Zhi into powder. Take 2 qian per dose, blend with child's urine and a little vinegar, then dissolve with hot water and ingest. Recovery usually occurs within two doses. For Chuang Tou Chuang (impetigo/crusty sores) and various heat-induced sores: First wash clean with a little vinegar and water to remove scabs, then rinse with warm water and dry. Grind Bai Cao Shuang finely, add a small amount of Ni Fen (Calomel/Mercurous Chloride), mix with raw oil, and apply topically for immediate healing.
