东轩居士序
我的叔父在干道庚寅年六月,患背疮,起初症状很轻微,本想用蒜饼做艾炷灸疗,但还没有实施。一天,医生让他服用大黄和朴硝(芒硝),症状就暂时隐退了。先用药渣敷在上面,过了一夜再看,疮口已经有一寸多大了,于是急忙去掉药物,让外科医生调治。十天后疮口长到一尺大,势头仍未停止。梅根编户文居礼擅长治疗此类疾病,他治愈的病人不计其数。请他来医治,服药、熏蒸、贴敷十天后疮口收敛,二十天后长出肌肉。有一天我到汪氏妻子家,得到一本流传的背疮方书,内容与文居礼所用的药方暗中契合,内服的是卷尾逼毒散,外敷的是黄真君妙贴散,熏药用雌黄、雄黄等,都是书中前几页的一两个方子。至于书首的十一论入门式试法、川药法、针灸法、药仙芝翁指授散、老翁神杖散、玉女飞花散、赵侯须散、六化丹等,都是文居礼未曾耳闻目睹过的。后来把这部集子给文居礼看,互相参考使用,病情不到两个月就痊愈了。唉!疾病的形势很大,药物的功效也很大,只是担心人们不能得到这些书并善于运用它。现在文居礼仅凭书中一两个方子就能治好人的病像这样,何况得到全书大全的人,那么救活的人难道会有穷尽吗?因此命名为“卫家济世宝书”,不也是合适的吗?我不敢将此书据为己有,恭敬地把它交给文居礼,仍然传给喜爱医术的人,姑且记下始末原委。董氏作序。
我家收藏痈疽方论二十二篇,合为一册,其中的方论精微,图谱证候齐全。根据病情施治见效,可以永远流传。作为保卫家族、救济世人的宝物,所以记为“家传卫济宝书”。凡是采集百家的学说,融会十经的宗旨,以自我领悟的奥妙,分条陈述篇目,使传承者容易明白且易于施行。其中问答指导的文字,是传给不老山高先生的;玉女飞花散是从洞灵辛隐士那里得到的;老翁神杖散是深溪吴道士的方子;赵侯须一派源自清河衲僧所传;而犀角丸虽然万全本中有记载,但实际上是因为文宫先生所得。食膏蹄汤来自《千金方》,疮溃烂之后,不用这个方子不可消散,号称十奇黄山奇效的药;乳痈软疖,是三溪老人所珍视的;针法师从石龙法师的灸诀中学习,休宁道人给予指教。凭借文字注解,片言只字都不妄发,施行十二年,救人无数,才知晓其中的微妙深奥。在息心澄意、聪慧领悟之后,才可以奉行,或许不会误后人,这其中的阴德也不浅了。东轩居士作序。
My uncle, in the sixth month of the Gengyin year of the Qiandao era, suffered from a carbuncle on his back. Its onset was very slight; he intended to use garlic cake moxibustion (Garlic Cake Moxibustion), but had not yet applied it. One day, the physician instructed him to drink Dahuang (Rhei Radix et Rhizoma) and Puxiao (Natrii Sulfas), after which the symptoms subsided temporarily. He first covered the area with the dregs of the medicine. The next morning, upon inspection, the lesion had expanded to more than one cun in diameter. Consequently, the medication was hastily removed, and a surgeon was summoned for treatment. Within ten days, the wound grew to a chi in size, and the progression showed no signs of abating. Wen Juli, a resident of Meigen Bianhu, specialized in this type of illness, curing countless patients without counting. He was invited to treat my uncle. After ten days of oral medication, fumigation, and topical application, the carbuncle closed up; within twenty days, new flesh had grown. One day, I visited the home of Mrs. Wang and obtained a booklet of transmitted prescriptions for back carbuncles. The contents tacitly matched the remedies used by Mr. Wen. The internal prescription was Juanwei Bidu San (Tail-End Toxin-Expelling Powder), and the external plaster was Huang Zhenjun Miaotie San (Yellow True Lord's Wonderful Adhesive Powder). The fumigation herbs included Cinnabaris (Zhuhsha) and Realgar (Xionghuang), among others, all being one or two formulas from the beginning of the booklet. Regarding the eleven introductory essays, testing methods, Sichuan drug preparation methods, acupuncture and moxibustion techniques, Yaoxian Zhiweng Zhishou San (Medicine Immortal Master Zhi's Instructional Powder), Laoweng Shenzhang San (Old Man's Divine Staff Powder), Yunü Feihua San (Jade Maiden Flying Flower Powder), Zhao Houxu San (Marquis Zhao's Beard Powder), Liuhua Dan (Six Transformations Pill), etc., these were all things that Mr. Wen had neither heard nor seen before. Later, I showed this collection to Mr. Wen. They mutually utilized the formulas, and the illness recovered completely within less than two months. Alas! The severity of the disease is great, and the efficacy of the medicine is also great; the only concern is that people may fail to obtain these texts and utilize them effectively. Now, if Mr. Wen could cure such severe illnesses using merely one or two formulas from the booklet, how much more effective would be those who possess the complete collection? Would there be any limit to the number of lives saved? Therefore, naming it "Weijia Jishi Baoshu" (Precious Book for Protecting the Family and Benefiting the World) is indeed appropriate. I dare not keep this book as private property; respectfully, I hand it over to Mr. Wen and still transmit it to those interested in medicine, briefly recording the beginning and end of events. Preface by Dong.
My family possesses twenty-two chapters of treatises and prescriptions for carbuncles and sores, compiled into one volume. The prescriptions and theories are refined and subtle, with diagrams and evidence fully provided. Treating according to the disease yields effectiveness, allowing it to be transmitted indefinitely. As a treasure for protecting the family and benefiting the world, I recorded it as "Jiachuan Weiji Baoshu" (Family-Transmitted Precious Book for Protecting and Benefiting the World). It collects the teachings of a hundred schools and integrates the essence of the Ten Classics, incorporating personal insights. The chapters are listed item by item to make transmission clear and practice easy. The Q&A instructional texts were passed down from Mr. Gaoshan Bulaolao (Elder Gao Shan Who Does Not Age); Yunü Feihua San (Jade Maiden Flying Flower Powder) was obtained from the hermit Xin Yinshi of Dongling; Laoweng Shenzhang San (Old Man's Divine Staff Powder) belongs to the Daoist Wu of Shenxi; the lineage of Zhao Houxu San (Marquis Zhao's Beard Powder) traces back to a monk from Qinghe; although Xijiao Wan (Rhino Horn Pill) appears in Wan Quan's work, it was actually derived from what Mr. Wengong obtained. Shigaoti Tang (Food Paste and Hoof Decoction) comes from *Qianjin Fang* (Essential Prescriptions Worth a Thousand Gold); after ulceration of sores, this formula is indispensable for dispersing toxins, known as one of the "Ten Wonders," a miraculous remedy from Huangshan. Ruyong (Breast Abscess) and Roujie (Soft Boils) were cherished by the Old Man of Sanxi; the Acupuncture Master learned from the Moxibustion Secrets of Master Shilong; the Daoist of Xiuning offered guidance. Based on textual annotations, every word is carefully considered and never issued lightly. Having practiced for twelve years and saving countless lives, one comes to understand the profound subtleties. Only after calming the mind, clarifying intent, and achieving enlightenment can one practice it, thereby avoiding misleading future generations. The hidden virtue gained from this is indeed immense.
