精极者,梦泄遗精,瘦削少气,目视不明,此方主之。
精、气、神,有身之三宝也。师曰∶精生气,气生神。是以精极则无以生气,故令瘦削
少气。气少则无以生神,故令目视不明。龟、鹿禀阴气之最完者,其角与板,又其身聚气之
最胜者,故取其胶以补阴精。用血气之属剂而补之,所谓补以类也。人参善于固气,气固则
精不遗。枸杞善于滋阴,阴滋则火不泄。此药行则精日生,气日壮,神日旺矣。

六极之外,又有七伤。一曰大怒逆气伤肝。肝伤则少血目暗,宜此方主之。
经曰∶肝者,将军之官,故主怒。怒则气逆,气逆则血亦逆,故少血。眼者,肝之窍。
又曰∶目得血而能视。今肝伤少血,故令目暗。越人云∶东方常实,故肝脏有泻而无补,即
使逆气自伤,疏之即所以补之也。此方名曰逍遥,亦是疏散之意。柴胡能升,所以达其逆也。
芍药能收,所以损其过也。丹、栀能泻,所以伐其实也。木盛则土衰,白术、甘草,扶其所
不胜也。肝伤则血病,当归所以养其血也。木实则火燥,茯神所以宁其心也。
鹿角(取血制者,十斤) 龟板(五斤) 枸杞子(三十两) 人参(十五两)
以上药材用铅坛按照规范熬制成胶,初次服用时以酒化开一钱半,逐渐增加至三钱,空腹服用。
精气极度亏损的人,出现梦中遗精、身体消瘦、气息短少、视力模糊等症状,此方主治。
精、气、神,是身体的三宝。老师说:精能生气,气能生神。因此精气极度亏损就无法产生气,所以导致身体消瘦、气息短少。气少就无法产生神,所以导致视力模糊。龟和鹿禀受了最完备的阴气,它们的角和甲壳,又是它们身体中聚集气最旺盛的部分,所以取它们的胶来补益阴精。使用属于血气类的药物来补益,这就是所谓的“同类相补”。人参善于固护气,气固摄则精液不致外泄。枸杞善于滋阴,阴滋润则虚火不致妄动。服用此药后,精每日增长,气日益强壮,神日益旺盛。

除了六极之外,还有七伤。第一是大怒导致逆气损伤肝脏。肝受伤则血液减少、视力昏暗,适宜此方主治。
经典说:肝是将军之官,所以主管愤怒。愤怒则气机逆乱,气机逆乱则血亦随之逆乱,所以血液减少。眼睛是肝的外窍。
又说:眼睛得到血液的滋养才能视物。现在肝受伤且血液减少,所以导致视力昏暗。扁鹊说:东方属木常实,所以肝脏有泻法而无补法,即使是逆气自我损伤,疏泄它也就是补益它了。此方名为逍遥,也是疏散的意思。柴胡能够升发,所以能通达逆乱之气。
芍药能够收敛,所以能抑制过亢之气。丹皮、山栀能够清泻,所以能攻伐其实邪。木气过盛则土气衰弱,白术、甘草扶助被克制的一方。肝受伤则血病,当归用来养血。木气实则火气燥烈,茯神用来宁心安神。
Deer Antler (prepared with blood, ten jin) Tortoise Plastron (five jin) Lycii Fructus (Sanqi Liang) Ginseng Radix et Rhizoma (Shiwu Liang)
The above ingredients are decocted into a gelatin using a lead pot according to standard procedures. Initially, dissolve one qian and half in wine for oral administration, gradually increasing the dose to three qian, taken on an empty stomach.
For conditions of extreme essence depletion, characterized by nocturnal emission during dreams, emaciation, shortness of breath, and blurred vision, this formula is indicated.
Essence, Qi, and Spirit are the Three Treasures of the body. The Master said: Essence generates Qi, and Qi generates Spirit. Therefore, when essence is extremely depleted, it cannot generate Qi, resulting in emaciation and shortness of breath. When Qi is insufficient, it cannot generate Spirit, resulting in blurred vision. Turtles and deer possess the most complete Yin Qi; their antlers and plastrons are the parts where Qi is most concentrated in their bodies. Thus, their gelatin is used to tonify Yin Essence. Using substances belonging to the category of Blood and Qi for tonification follows the principle of "tonifying by similarity." Ginseng excels at consolidating Qi; when Qi is consolidated, Essence does not leak. Lycium fruit excels at nourishing Yin; when Yin is nourished, Fire does not flare up. With the action of this medicine, Essence increases daily, Qi becomes stronger daily, and Spirit becomes more vigorous daily.
Angelicae Sinensis Radix (Danggui) Paeoniae Alba Radix (Baishao) Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma (Baizhu) Bupleuri Radix (Chaihu) Poria (Fushen) Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma (Gancao) (each one qian) Moutan Cortex (Danpi) Gardeniae Fructus (Shanzhi) (each seven fen)
Beyond the Six Extremes, there are also Seven Injuries. The first is that excessive anger causes rebellious Qi to injure the Liver. When the Liver is injured, there is a deficiency of Blood and dim vision; this formula is suitable for treatment.
The Classics state: The Liver is the official of the General, thus governing anger. Anger causes Qi to rebel; when Qi rebels, Blood also rebels, leading to a deficiency of Blood. The eyes are the orifice of the Liver.
It is also said: The eyes can see only when they receive nourishment from Blood. Now, because the Liver is injured and deficient in Blood, vision becomes dim. Yue Ren (Bian Que) stated: The East (Wood) is often full/excess, so the Liver has draining methods but no tonifying methods; even if rebellious Qi self-injures, draining it constitutes tonification. This formula is named Xiaoyao (Free and Easy Wanderer), implying the meaning of dispersing and unblocking. Chaihu can ascend, thereby venting rebellious Qi.
Shaoyao can astringe, thereby reducing excess. Danpi and Zhizi can clear and drain, thereby attacking excess pathogenic factors. When Wood is excessive, Earth declines; Baizhu and Gancao support the element that is overcome. When the Liver is injured, Blood pathology occurs; Danggui is used to nourish Blood. When Wood is excessive, Fire becomes dry/hot; Fushen is used to calm the Heart and Spirit.
