治疗突然遭受恶邪之气侵袭,或受疰病传染。(方剂详情见“九痛门”章节)
江南福建山区的居民,将蛇、毒蛇、蜈蚣、蛞蝓、蛤蟆等上百种虫类放在同一容器中饲养,让它们互相吞食,存活下来的被视为灵异之物加以供奉。人们采集其毒液,混杂在蔬菜、水果或饮食中用来害人,妄图借此求福,谋求富贵。人一旦中毒,症状千变万化,详细情况如同治疗各种蛊毒的论述一样,甚至有人因多年受蛊害而死亡。另外,有些人家中像供奉祖先一样香火祭祀某种东西,这也称为蛊,能使人患病,世人称之为“蛊注”;根据姓氏归类于五音,称为“五蛊”。这些现象多发生在边远偏僻之地,京城中都则很少听说。
凡是中蛊毒的人,会感到心腹剧烈绞痛,好像有东西在啃咬,呕吐和排泄物都像烂肉一样。如果不立即治疗,蛊毒侵蚀五脏就会致死。验证方法是让病人吐口水入水中,下沉的就是蛊毒。如果有人用蛊毒害人,想要知道施术者的姓名,可以将破旧的鼓皮烧成粉末,用水冲服一方寸匕的量,片刻之后,病人会自己说出施蛊者的姓名,此时可以命令施术者前来召唤,病人即可痊愈。治疗此病也有相应的方剂。

Suhe Xiang Wan (Styrax Pill)
Treats sudden attack by malignant evil qi or infection by Zhu disease. (Formula details see "Jiutong Men" chapter).
In the mountainous regions of Fujian in Jiangnan, locals keep hundreds of insects such as snakes, vipers, centipedes, slugs, and toads in the same container, allowing them to eat each other. The survivor is considered spiritual and worshipped. Its venom is collected and mixed with vegetables, fruits, or food to harm others, with the delusional hope of gaining blessings and wealth. If a person is poisoned, symptoms vary endlessly, as extensively described in the treatment of various Gu poisons, and some may die after years of suffering. Additionally, some households worship certain entities with incense and offerings as if they were ancestors; this is also called Gu, which can cause illness. The world calls it "Gu Zhu"; classified by surname into the five tones, it is called "Wu Gu". These phenomena are common in remote and backward areas but rarely heard of in the central capital.
Those poisoned by Gu poison experience severe cramping pain in the heart and abdomen, as if being gnawed by something, with vomiting and defecation resembling rotting flesh. If not treated immediately, the poison will destroy the five Zang organs leading to death. A verification method involves having the patient spit into water; if the saliva sinks, it indicates Gu poison. If someone uses Gu poison to harm another, and one wishes to know the perpetrator's name, burn old drum skin into powder, take one cun bi (approx. 2-3 grams) with water, and within moments, the patient will spontaneously call out the Gu master's name. One can then command the Gu master to come and summon the victim, who will recover. There are also specific formulas for treating this condition.
