人有为虎所伤，无论牙爪，流血必多。大约虎伤者，多在颈项，必有深孔，或
两个，或四个，其孔一时即变黑色，痛不可忍。急用生猪油塞之，无猪油则用生猪
肉填之，则肉入孔中，随塞随化，庶不致所伤之肉再腐，然后急买地榆半斤，为末，
敷其虎伤之处，血即顿止，随用汤药以解其渴。盖虎伤之后流血必多，而虎又有热
毒，直来犯心，故口渴之甚，断不可即与水饮，万不得已可与小便饮之。急用治虎
汤∶
当归（三两） 地榆（一两） 生地（三两） 黄 （三钱） 三七根末（一两） 麦冬（三两）
水十碗，煎数碗，恣其畅饮，服完必安然而卧。明日伤处大痒，又服一剂，又卧。如是五
日；疮口生合而愈。
此方大补气血以生肌，加地榆以化虎毒，加三七根止血收口。药料无奇，而收
功实神妙也。
人有为蛇所伤，或在足上，或在头面，或在身腹之间，足肿如斗，面肿如盘，腹肿如箕，
三日不救，则毒瓦斯攻心，人即死矣。盖蛇乃阴物，藏于土中，初出洞之时，其口尚未饮水，毒犹
未解，故伤人最毒。治以解毒为主。惟是蛇毒乃阴毒也，阴毒以阳药解之，则毒愈炽。必须
以阴分解毒之药，顺其性而解之也。方用祛毒散∶
白芷（一两） 生甘草（五钱） 夏枯草（二两） 蒲公英（一两） 紫花地丁（一两） 白矾（三钱）
水煎服。一剂而肿渐消，二剂而毒尽从大小便而出，三剂全愈。
此方白芷虽是阳分之药，得夏枯草阳变为阴。紫花地丁、蒲公英、甘草、白矾
之类尽是消毒之味，又且属阴，阴药以化阴毒，自易奏功，所以助白芷直攻蛇毒而
无留余之害也。或问，解蛇之毒既不可用阳分之药，何必又用白芷？不知蛇毒正用
白芷，方能除祛。世人不善用之，所以有效有不效。今用之于阴分药中，自无不效
矣。又何可舍白芷而另求他药，反致无功乎。或又问，雄黄亦制蛇毒之品，何不用
之？然而白芷阳中有阴，不比雄黄之纯阳也。雄黄外用可以建奇功，而内用每至偾
事，不若白芷之用于阴中，可收全功耳。
人有为癫狗所伤者，其人亦必发癫，有如狂之症，世以为其人必生小狗于腹中，
此误传也。因其发出狂癫有如狗状，见人则咬，逢女则嬲，非狗生于腹中，不宜
有此景象。况人为癫狗所伤，大小便必一时俱闭，不能遽出，大小便虚用努力，似
若生产艰难。且外势急痛，腰腹作胀而死，人以为腹中生狗不能产而死。云腰痛者，
乃小狗内咬也，岂不可笑哉。其实狗误食毒物而发癫，亦为所伤。则毒瓦斯传染于人，
狗愈而人死矣，最可畏之病也。然而得其法以解毒，则病去如扫，正不必过惧也。
夫犬性最热，狗食物而发癫，乃食热物之故，或食自死之肉，或餐热病之尸，多成
癫病。然则狗发癫狂，实热上加热也。解其热毒，何不愈之有。但世人未知解法，
所以不救耳。予逢异授奇方，不敢自秘，传以救世焉。方用活命仙丹∶
木鳖子（三个，切片） 斑蝥（七个，陈土炒，去头足，米一撮炒） 大黄（五钱）
刘寄奴（五钱） 茯苓（五钱） 麝香（一分） 各研细末，和匀，黄酒调服三钱，一剂而毒瓦斯全解，
至神之方也，不必二服，七日皆能奏功。过七日外，必须多服数次，无不可救。服药切忌色欲，
须二月不行房。并忌发物，余无所忌。
是方用木鳖、斑猫者，以狗最畏二物也。木鳖大凉，又能泻去热毒，得大黄以
迅扫之，则热毒难留。刘寄奴善能逐血，尤走水窍，佐茯苓利水更速，引毒瓦斯从小
便而出也。麝香虽亦走窍，然用之不过制斑蝥、木鳖，使之以毒攻毒耳，中有妙理，
非漫然而用之也。
A person bitten by a tiger, whether by teeth or claws, will inevitably bleed profusely. Generally, tiger bites occur mostly on the neck and nape, leaving deep holes—either two or four—which turn black almost immediately, accompanied by unbearable pain. Immediately plug the wound with raw lard; if lard is unavailable, use raw pork to fill it. The meat enters the hole and melts as it is packed in, preventing the injured flesh from rotting further. Then, hastily purchase half a jin (approx. 500g) of *Sanguisorbae Radix* (Di Yu, 地榆), grind it into powder, and apply it to the bite site to stop bleeding instantly. Subsequently, administer a decoction to quench thirst. Since tiger bites cause massive blood loss and tigers carry heat-toxin that directly attacks the Heart, severe thirst ensues. One must absolutely avoid giving water immediately; if desperate, urine may be given. Urgently prepare Tiger-Bite Decoction (Zhi Hu Tang): *Angelicae Sinensis Radix* (Danggui, 当归) 3 liang, *Sanguisorbae Radix* (Di Yu, 1 liang, *Rehmanniae Radix* (Shengdi, 3 liang), *Astragali Radix* (Huangqi, 3 qian), *Notoginseng Radix et Rhizoma* powder (Sanqi Gen Mo, 1 liang), *Ophiopogonis Radix* (Maidong, 3 liang). Boil in 10 bowls of water until reduced to several bowls. Allow the patient to drink freely. After finishing, the patient will sleep peacefully. On the next day, the wound will itch severely; administer another dose and let them sleep again. Continue this for five days until the wound heals completely.
This formula greatly tonifies Qi and Blood to generate tissue, adds *Sanguisorbae Radix* to resolve tiger toxin, and adds *Notoginseng Radix et Rhizoma* to stop bleeding and close the wound. The ingredients are unremarkable, yet the therapeutic effect is miraculous.
A person bitten by a snake may suffer injury on the foot, head/face, or abdomen. The foot swells like a measuring cup, the face like a plate, and the abdomen like a winnowing basket. If not treated within three days, the toxin will attack the Heart, leading to death. Snakes are Yin entities dwelling in the earth. When they first emerge from their burrow, they have not drunk water, so their venom remains unresolved, making their bite extremely toxic. Treatment focuses on detoxification. However, snake venom is a Yin toxin; resolving it with Yang herbs exacerbates the toxicity. One must use herbs from the Yin aspect to dissolve the toxin, following its nature. Use Detoxification-Dispelling Powder (Qu Du San): *Angelicae Dahuricae Radix* (Baizhi, 1 liang), *Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma* raw (Sheng Gancao, 5 qian), *Prunellae Spica* (Xiakucao, 2 liang), *Taraxaci Herba* (Pugongying, 1 liang), *Violae Herba* (Zihua Diding, 1 liang), *Alumen* (Baifan, 3 qian). Decoct in water and take orally. Swelling subsides gradually after one dose; toxins are excreted through urination and defecation after two doses; full recovery occurs after three doses.
Although *Angelicae Dahuricae Radix* is a Yang herb, it transforms into Yin when combined with *Prunellae Spica*. *Violae Herba*, *Taraxaci Herba*, *Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma*, and *Alumen* are all detoxifying agents belonging to the Yin category. Yin herbs resolving Yin toxins naturally achieve efficacy, assisting *Angelicae Dahuricae Radix* to attack snake venom without leaving residual harm. One might ask: if Yang herbs should not be used to resolve snake venom, why use *Angelicae Dahuricae Radix*? It is unknown that *Angelicae Dahuricae Radix* is precisely needed to expel snake venom. People fail to use it properly, resulting in inconsistent efficacy. Now, using it among Yin herbs ensures effectiveness. Why abandon it for other drugs and risk ineffectiveness? Another question arises: *Realgar* (Xionghuang) also controls snake venom; why not use it? *Angelicae Dahuricae Radix* contains Yin within Yang, unlike the purely Yang *Realgar*. *Realgar* achieves miracles externally but often fails internally. In contrast, *Angelicae Dahuricae Radix* used within Yin formulas yields complete success.
A person bitten by a mad dog will likely develop mania, resembling madness. The common belief that a puppy grows in the abdomen is a misconception. The patient acts madly like a dog, biting people and harassing women, which is not due to a puppy in the womb. Moreover, after a mad dog bite, urination and defecation become obstructed simultaneously. Straining to void resembles difficult labor. External symptoms include acute pain and abdominal distension leading to death; people mistakenly attribute this to an inability to deliver a puppy. Claims of lower back pain being caused by the puppy biting inside are absurd. Actually, dogs go mad after ingesting poison or hot substances, such as carrion or corpses of those who died from febrile diseases. This transmits toxin to humans; even if the dog survives, the human may die. It is a terrifying disease. However, with proper detoxification methods, the illness can be swept away, and excessive fear is unnecessary.
Dogs have a hot nature. Madness results from eating hot foods, dead animals, or corpses of febrile deaths, causing "heat upon heat." Resolving this heat-toxin cures the condition. Ignorance of this method leads to failure. I received a unique prescription and dare not keep it secret; I transmit it to save lives. Use Life-Saving Immortal Elixir (Huo Ming Xian Dan): *Momordicae Semen* (Mubiezi, 3 pieces, sliced), *Mylabris* (Banmao, 7 pieces, stir-fried with aged soil, remove head and feet, stir-fry with a pinch of rice), *Rhei Radix et Rhizoma* (Dahuang, 5 qian), *Artemisiae Annuae Herba* (Liujinu, 5 qian), *Poria* (Fuling, 5 qian), *Moschus* (Shexiang, 1 fen). Grind each into fine powder, mix evenly, and take 3 qian mixed with yellow wine. One dose fully resolves the toxin. This is a divine formula; a second dose is unnecessary. Efficacy appears within seven days. Beyond seven days, multiple doses ensure salvation. Avoid sexual activity for two months during treatment. Also avoid "fa-wu" (stimulating foods); no other restrictions apply.
*Momordicae Semen* and *Mylabris* are used because dogs fear these substances most. *Momordicae Semen* is very cold and drains heat-toxin; aided by *Rhei Radix et Rhizoma* to sweep it away rapidly, heat-toxin cannot linger. *Artemisiae Annuae Herba* promotes blood circulation and targets fluid pathways; assisted by *Poria* to promote diuresis more quickly, guiding toxin out via urine. *Moschus* also opens orifices, but here it merely moderates *Mylabris* and *Momordicae Semen*, allowing them to fight toxin with toxin. There is profound logic in this, not arbitrary usage.
