However, text distinguishes Qianghuo/Niu Xi. Let's stick to Saposhnikoviae Radix as per common usage in some regions or Peucedani Radix. Actually, Haitong Pi is often Saposhnikoviae Radix in modern TCM, but historically Peucedani. I will use Saposhnikoviae Radix if distinct from Qianghuo, but here Qianghuo is listed separately. Wait, Qianghuo is Notopterygii. Haitong Pi is often Saposhnikoviae. But Fangfeng is Saposhnikoviae. This text might use Haitong Pi for Peucedani Radix (Qianhu) or Saposhnikoviae. Given "Legs", and distinct from Fangfeng, it might be Peucedani. However, WHO term for Haitong Pi is Saposhnikoviae Radix. I will use Saposhnikoviae Radix but note potential ambiguity. Actually, many sources equate Haitong Pi with Saposhnikoviae.

The above herbs are all secret guiding essentials. One should study the Materia Medica thoroughly, investigate their functions, carefully examine the syndrome for deficiency/excess and cold/heat, and adjust treatment accordingly. Thus, infinite flexibility and consistent efficacy will be achieved.

Then add Ruxiang and Moyao, melt, and mix uniformly. Apply this paste to sores that do not heal or grow flesh quickly. Cover with good plaster or oil paper. Change every 24 hours. Wash with pig trotter broth. Three changes lead to cure.
