赵希弁说：上面是王执中所编纂的。执中，是东嘉人，曾经担任从政郎澧州教授。
徐正卿序说：铜人明堂，是黄帝、岐伯、鬼臾区留传给天下后世以救活人的。自从隔胆透肤的妙法失传后，人们就说针灸能绝断筋脉，损伤血肉，以至于望而生畏。有病就甘心接受庸医的治疗，各种药物都尝试，不知道病在头顶的，必须灸风池、风府，不是桂枝汤之类所能攻治的；病在胸膺的，必须灸刺魂门，虽然是枳实之类也不能下行。于是束手无策，岂不悲哀吗？近代朱肱、庞安常都研究针法，许知可也说病应当用针刺治愈。三衢邹握虎将治法编成歌诗概括流行。古圣贤救人的心意，依靠这些才得以重新流传。如今东嘉王叔权又选取三百六十个穴位，背面巅顶末端，进行分类排列，以穴位对应病症。凡是百家学说中切合理法的，以及自己心得在于心的，都疏列在下面。针灸的书，到这时才大致完备。古圣贤救人的心意，到这时才没有遗憾。传说做儿子的，不可以不学医。我父亲八十岁，精力强健，不是依赖这本书吗？于是让医卫世杰订证，不见到的地方，有十八条。刻印于庚辰年孟夏朔日。承议郎提举淮南东路常平茶盐公事徐正卿序。赵纶后序说：我到达澧阳，官吏拿着图经来迎接。闲暇时翻阅，看到文献目录中有灸经。心想如果不是明堂，就是铜人。任职以来，亲友书信，以及士大夫经过的，多以请印置此书为托付。询问其原因，原来是前郡博士王君执中所编纂的。寻求其刻板却已经亡失了。难道是好事者携带而去，或者是守藏者不谨慎而散逸了呢？然而这部经典流传已久，难道没有存世的吗？暗中加以搜访，最终没有得到。回忆箱箧中有淮东庾使徐君正卿所刊刻的《针灸资生经》，取来看视，其序引历述东嘉王叔权发明编类的功劳，并且说针灸的书，到这时才大致完备，古圣贤救人的心意，到这时才没有遗憾。就知道王君的用心，也是仁爱至极的了。所谓叔权，难道是王君的字吗？一天出示给医谕刘某看。刘某一见惊讶且高兴地说：“王君所刊刻的，正是这本书啊。现在的刻画精致，比过去更有进步。探究其由来，大概是徐君曾经主持民曹，在这个地方得到这本书，回去后刊刻罢了。唉！这部经典，王君首先在澧阳刊刻，现在不再存在。徐君接着在海陵刊刻，它的存亡与否，又不可知。刻板如果不存，那么两位君子的志向，将会随之湮没微小，岂不可惜吗？我兼任此职，恰好携带而来，大概不是偶然的。急忙命工匠刻梓，以广泛流传，使这本书不致泯灭，对于卫生保健，难道是小补吗？绍定四年四月十五日，朝散郎澧阳郡丞赵纶后序。
高武说：《资生经》，是东嘉王执中叔权选取三百六十个穴位，背面巅顶末端，进行分类排列，以穴位归属病症。大概是综合了铜人、《千金》、《明堂》、《外台》而统一起来的。
《四库全书提要》说：“《针灸资生经》七卷，旧题叶氏广勤堂新刊，大概是麻沙本。不著撰人名氏。前有嘉定庚辰年徐正卿初刊序，称东嘉王叔权作。又有绍定四年赵伦重刊序，称澧阳郡博士王执中作，而怀疑叔权是执中的字。以字的意义推究，这种说法是正确的。这本书第一卷，总载诸穴；第二卷至第六卷，分论诸证。经纬相互资助，各有条理，颇为明白易晓。旧本冠以徽宗崇宁年间陈承、裴宗元、陈师文等人校奏医书的一表，与序和书，都不相应。考证裴宗元、陈师文等人，就是校正《太平惠民和剂局方》的人，大概是书商移用其他书的进表，放在卷首，想要凭借官书来抬高身价吗？然而宋代官书，自有王惟德的《铜人针灸经》，怎么可以诬蔑呢？”

Hua Shou had never seen the *Bronze Man Acupoint and Meridian Classic* (Tongren Xue Jing). It is likely that during the transition between the Yuan and Ming dynasties, this text became obscure and rarely circulated. The re-engraving of the stone version by Emperor Yingzong might have been due to this reason.

Note: The author of this book is unknown. Volume 3 contains a preface for the "Great Diagram of Acupuncture and Moxibustion Avoidances" written by the Idle Hermit of Pingxiu on the Lantern Festival day of the Bingwu year (the 16th year of Emperor Shizong's Dading reign in Jin, which corresponds to the 13th year of Emperor Xiaozong's Chunxi reign in Song). After the preface, there is a woodblock seal indicating it was printed by the Chen Family Bookshop. Research confirms that the Bingwu year refers to the 16th year of Emperor Shizong's Dading reign, i.e., the 13th year of Emperor Xiaozong's Chunxi reign. Mr. Yamazaki Masamasa of Sheyuan once obtained this block edition and intended to re-carve and publish it, asking me to write a preface.

According to his biography in the *History of Song*: Xu Xi was from Kaifeng and practiced medicine. He was appointed as a Medical Officer of the Hanlin Academy. In the first year of Jingyou, Emperor Renzong fell ill. Several attending physicians administered medicines without effect, causing public anxiety. Princess Ji Guo recommended Xu Xi. Xu Xi diagnosed and said, "Needling the area between the heart and the pericardium can lead to a rapid recovery." Attendants argued against this. Several eunuchs volunteered to be tested; no harm resulted from the test. Thus, the needle was inserted, and the Emperor recovered. He was appointed Imperial Medical Officer and bestowed with a crimson robe, paper fish, and other gifts. After bowing in gratitude, Xu Xi bowed westward again. When asked why, he replied, "Bian Que is my teacher. Today's success is not my merit but my teacher's grace; how dare I forget him?" He requested to use the gold received to build a temple for Bian Que. The Emperor built the temple in the southwest corner of the city and conferred the title "Lord of Spiritual Response." Later, the temple was expanded, and medical students flocked to it. Consequently, the Bureau of Imperial Physicians was established nearby. Xu Xi eventually reached the rank of Supervisor of Medicines in the Palace Secretariat and died. He authored the *Essential Secrets of the Divine Response Needle Classic*, which circulated widely. His son, Zongdao, was recorded as holding the post of Chongban within the Inner Court.

The *Siku Quanshu* (Complete Library of the Four Treasuries) abstract states: *Benqin Qiongyao Faming Shenshu* consists of two volumes. The old title attributes it to Bestowed Grand Master Liu Zhenren, without naming him. It has a preface dated the first year of Chongning, suggesting the author lived during the reign of Emperor Huizong of Song. However, the preface mentions "Mr. Hua Bo Ren of Xuchang," who studied meridians specifically. (Note: The term "zhuan zhuan" is suspected to be erroneous; transcribed here as in the original.) It discusses the three Yin and three Yang meridities of the hands and feet, as well as the Ren and Du vessels. It observes the diagrams and explanations... "Bo Ren" is the courtesy name of Hua Shou. Hua Shou lived from Yuan into Ming, and the *History of Ming* includes him in the Biographies of Technicians. How could a person from the Chongning era see him? The forgery is evident. The content concerns acupuncture methods and prescriptions, likely fabricated by mediocre or arrogant individuals.

Qian Zeng said: The title claims it is collected by Bestowed Grand Master Liu Zhenren, but the time period is unknown. The method of boiling needles by Shennong is lost in other books but preserved here, making it valuable.

Postscript: I left Xuchang amidst the chaos of war, suffering from worry and hardship, exposed to cold and heat, seeking refuge eastward. In August of the Dingwei year, I arrived at the Wei River bank and contracted malaria. Upon reaching Qin Chuan, I was misdiagnosed and mistreated by a physician, leading to the depletion of Ying and Wei (nutritive and defensive qi). By late spring of the following year, I still suffered from edema, abdominal distension, shortness of breath, inability to eat, and profuse diarrhea. My body and legs were heavy and flaccid, requiring a cane to stand. Arriving at the home of Chen Liaoweng, I underwent moxibustion specifically on the Gohuang acupoints. From Dinghai to Qisi, I accumulated 300 moxa cones. The next day, my chest felt calm, swelling decreased, diarrhea stopped, and appetite returned. By Jiawu, I could travel in a sedan chair. Later reports indicated another 100 cones were applied. Since then, symptoms gradually subsided until full health was restored. Only in recent times did I witness such efficacy. Several people undergoing moxibustion saw their chronic ailments removed. Sun Simiao said, "If one applies oneself diligently to find the correct acupoints and moxibustion them, no disease will remain unhealed." This is indeed true. Therefore, I examined differences among medical classics, consulted various schools' theories, and combined them with personal experience. Measuring cun distances and detailing nourishing methods, I divided the work into ten chapters. I illustrated body postures (flexion, extension, sitting, standing) after each chapter to facilitate understanding and prevent errors, thereby spreading the benevolent intent of finding acupoints to save lives. Recorded on February 12, the second year of Jianyan, by Zhuang Chuo, Chaofeng Lang, former Commander-in-Chief of South Dao, Assistant Manager, bestowed with a crimson fish bag.

Preface by Xu Zhengqing: The Bronze Man Mingtang was left by the Yellow Emperor, Qibo, and Gui Yuqu to save future generations. Since the subtle technique of penetrating skin through the gallbladder was lost, people feared acupuncture, believing it severed tendons and damaged flesh. They became afraid to seek treatment, preferring quack doctors and various medicines, unaware that diseases at the vertex require moxibustion at Fengchi and Fengfu, which cannot be treated by herbs like Cinnamon Twig Decoction (Guizhi Tang); diseases in the chest require needling/moxibustion at Hunmen, which cannot be resolved by drugs like Immature Bitter Orange (Zhishi). Thus, they were helpless, which is tragic. Recently, Zhu Gong and Pang Anchang both studied acupuncture methods. Xu Zhike also believed diseases should be cured by needling. Zou Wohu of Sanqu compiled treatment methods into songs for easy circulation. The life-saving intent of ancient sages was thus revived. Now, Wang Shuquan of Dongjia has selected 360 acupoints, categorized by location (front, back, head, extremities), matching points to diseases. He listed all rational theories from various schools and his own insights below. Acupuncture literature is now roughly complete. The life-saving intent of ancient sages is finally fulfilled. It is said that sons must study medicine. My father is eighty years old and vigorous, thanks to this book. I had Yi Weijie verify the text, noting 18 missing items. Printed in early summer of Gengchen year. Preface by Xu Zhengqing, Chengyi Lang, Supervisor of Changping, Tea, Salt, and Commerce Affairs of Eastern Huainan Road. Postscript by Zhao Lun: Upon arriving in Liyang, officials presented maps and classics. Reading them, I saw references to a Moxibustion Classic, assuming it was either Mingtang or Bronze Man. During my tenure, friends and scholars often asked me to print this book. Inquiry revealed it was compiled by former Prefectural Doctor Wang Zhizhong. The blocks were lost—perhaps taken by enthusiasts or scattered due to negligence. Given its long circulation, copies must exist. I searched secretly but found none. Recalling a copy of *Zhen Jiu Zisheng Jing* published by Xu Zhengqing, Commissioner of Grain Supplies in Huaidong, I reviewed it. Its preface praised Wang Shuquan's compilation, stating acupuncture literature was complete and the sages' intent fulfilled. This shows Wang's benevolence. Was Shuquan Wang's courtesy name? Showing it to Medical Instructor Liu, he exclaimed joyfully, "This is exactly the book Wang published! The engraving is exquisite, surpassing previous editions. Xu obtained it locally and published it." Alas, Wang's initial Liyang edition is gone. Xu's subsequent Hailing edition's survival is uncertain. If blocks are lost, their efforts vanish, which is pitiable. As deputy here, bringing this along seems destined. I ordered immediate printing to spread it, ensuring it doesn't perish, offering significant benefit to health. Written on April 15, fourth year of Shaoding, by Zhao Lun, Chaosan Lang, Deputy Prefect of Liyang Commandery.
Gao Wu said: *Zisheng Jing* was compiled by Wang Zhizhong (Shuquan) of Dongjia, selecting 360 acupoints, categorizing them by location and assigning them to diseases. It integrates the Bronze Man, *Essential Prescriptions Worth a Thousand Gold*, *Mingtang*, and *Waitai Mi Yao*.
*Siku Quanshu* abstract: "*Zhen Jiu Zisheng Jing*, 7 volumes. Old title: Newly published by Ye Family Guangqin Hall, likely a Mashab edition. Author unnamed. Preceded by Xu Zhengqing's preface from Gengchen year of Jiading, attributing it to Wang Shuquan of Dongjia. Also followed by Zhao Lun's postscript from the fourth year of Shaoding, attributing it to Wang Zhizhong, Prefectural Doctor of Liyang, suspecting Shuquan was Zhizhong's courtesy name. Etymologically, this is correct. Vol 1 lists all acupoints; Vols 2-6 discuss various syndromes. Warp and weft complement each other, organized clearly and easily understood. The old edition included a memorial by Chen Cheng, Pei Zongyuan, Chen Shiwen, etc., from Emperor Huizong's Chongning era, reviewing medical texts. This does not match the preface or content. Pei Zongyuan and Chen Shiwen were involved in correcting the *Tai Ping Hui Min He Ji Ju Fang*. Likely, a bookseller inserted this memorial from another official text to the front to enhance prestige. However, Song official texts already include Wang Weide's *Bronze Man Acupuncture and Moxibustion Classic*; how can this be confused?"
*[Ren's (Qinian) Beiji Aofa]*, 1 volume. Extant.
Inscription: Ancients said, "A son who does not read medical books is unfilial." Then, having formulas but not sharing them is unkind. Medical texts are vast, numbering in the tens of thousands. Without deep study, they are hard to navigate. Our dynasty's famous doctor, Regimental Commander Zhang Huan, wrote *Jifeng Puji Fang* and added *Beiji* (Emergency Preparedness) as one volume. These formulas use single ingredients, reliable in emergencies. Zhang's intent was truly beneficial. I have practiced medicine since youth, seeking the essence of every ancient formula and technique. Living in my hometown for nearly fifty years, I used it for livelihood and to help others. Now aged and frail, I wish to benefit people but lack resources. Among helpful yet inexpensive methods, acupuncture and moxibustion excel. Needling is hard to transmit; for emergencies, moxibustion is primary. I have compiled tested formulas into a collection for printing and wide distribution. Application is effective, reversing death and restoring life, mirroring creation. Difficult acupoints are illustrated so patients can follow instructions for relief. May this offer slight assistance. Written on January 15, Bingxu year of Baoqing, by Li Wenren Qinian, Son-in-law of Defense Commander Du Yizhen.
*[Yang's (Anonymous) Yulong Ge]*, recorded in *Dushu Minqiu Ji* as 1 volume. Not seen.
Qian Zeng said: *Yulong Ge* covers 120 acupoints. To address variations in needle insertion techniques among contemporaries, this song was composed as a treasure for health preservation.
*[Ge's (Kejiu) Twelve Meridians]*. Lost.
