问三病不同,皆用死人枕而瘥何也?徐嗣伯曰∶尸疰者,鬼气也,伏而未起,故令人沉滞,得死
人枕治之,魂气飞越,不复附体,故尸疰自瘥。石蛔者,医疗即癖,蛔虫转坚,世间药不能遣,
所以须鬼物驱之,然后乃散,故令煮死人枕服去。邪气入肝,故使眼痛而见魍魉,须邪物以钩之,
故用死人枕之气,因而去之,故令埋于冢间也。
头发:味甘,性温。又有说法认为其性微寒,无毒。主要治疗五种淋证(小便淋漓不尽或闭塞不通),以及关格病(小便不通与呕吐并见),能通利小便水道。治疗小儿癫痫,成人中风失语,能使神志恢复清明。与鸡蛋黄一起煎煮化为水状,可治疗小儿惊热及热疮。乱发微温,补阴功效非常迅速。主治咳嗽、五淋、大小便不通、小儿惊痫、燕面疮、豌豆疮、鼻衄不止(出血欲死),将其烧成灰研末,每次服用一方寸匕(约2-3克)。又可直接吹入鼻腔,立即见效。用于止血、血闷、血晕,金创伤风,血痢,烧成灰时不要完全烧尽。熬制成膏,能促进肌肉生长,消散瘀血。治疗破伤风及洗头后受风,(取如鸡蛋大小的头发,在无油的容器中熬至焦黑,研为细末,用一杯好酒冲服,加入何首乌末二钱混合均匀,待温热时灌服,过一二刻钟后再灌一次,效果极佳。)口误吞头发缠绕喉咙,(取自己的头发烧成灰,用水调服一钱。)
人乳汁:味甘,性寒。无毒。主要补益五脏,使人身体丰润、面色白净光泽。滴服可止泪明目,治疗眼赤痛。
头垢:性温。主治淋证闭阻不通,伤寒病愈后因劳累而复发。丸剂服用,或浸泡取汁服用,治疗噎膈(吞咽困难)。用酸浆水煎膏服用,又可治疗中蛊毒及菌类毒素中毒。用米饮或酒送服,竹木刺扎在肉中,涂抹此物即可拔出。百邪鬼魅作祟,用水送服一小豆大小的量。
人屎:性寒。主要治疗时行大热狂躁奔走,解除各种毒素,宜选用极干燥的制成粉末,用沸水冲服。善于破除疔肿,用新刀切开,敷上粪便,一天后根部腐烂脱落;或者烧成灰后用醋调和成泥状,敷在患处,干了就更换。粪清,腊月截取淡竹去皮,浸泡渗出的汁液,治疗天行热病、狂热痰多中毒及露疮,取汁液服用。

死人枕:(从坟墓中取出煮服。)治疗尸疰病,腹中有石蛔,邪气侵入肝脏,眼睛疼痛且多见鬼物。有人问三种病不同,为何都用死人枕而痊愈?徐嗣伯说:尸疰是鬼气,潜伏未起,所以让人沉滞,用死人枕治疗,魂气飞越,不再依附身体,所以尸疰自愈。石蛔是医疗形成的癖块,蛔虫变硬,世间药物不能驱除,所以需要鬼物来驱赶,然后才能散开,所以要煮死人枕服用去除。邪气侵入肝脏,导致眼痛和看见魍魉,需要用邪物来钩引它,所以用死人枕的气,从而去除它,因此要埋在坟间。
Hair (Fah): Sweet in taste, warm in nature. It is also said to have a slight cold nature and be non-toxic. It primarily treats five types of strangury (difficulty or pain in urination), Guan Ge syndrome (simultaneous obstruction of urination and vomiting), and promotes the free flow of urine through the water passages. It treats epilepsy in children and aphasia due to stroke in adults, restoring spiritual clarity. When decocted with egg yolk until it turns into water, it treats childhood convulsive fever and heat sores. Unkempt hair is slightly warm and has a very rapid effect in nourishing Yin. It treats cough, five types of strangury, obstruction of both large and small bowels, childhood convulsive epilepsy, Yanmian sore (a type of facial rash), smallpox, severe epistaxis (nosebleed approaching death). Burn it, grind into powder, and take one Fangcun Bi (approx. 2-3 grams) per dose. It can also be blown into the nasal cavity for immediate relief. It stops bleeding, treats blood stagnation causing syncope, wind-stroke from metal wounds, bloody dysentery. Burn to ash but do not completely consume it. Decoct into a paste to promote flesh growth and resolve blood stasis. Treats tetanus and wind-stroke after washing hair. (Take hair the size of an egg, fry in a non-oily vessel until charred black, grind to powder, mix with one cup of good wine and two qian of Polygonum multiflorum [Heshouwu] powder, let cool slightly and administer orally; repeat after 15-30 minutes for extreme efficacy.) If hair is accidentally swallowed and wraps around the throat, (take one's own hair, burn to ash, mix with water, and take one qian.)
Human Breast Milk: Sweet in taste, cold in nature. Non-toxic. Primarily tonifies the five Zang organs, making the body plump, skin white, lustrous, and healthy. Dripping it into the eyes stops tearing and brightens vision, treating redness and pain.
Head Grease (Toubao): Warm in nature. Treats strangury with obstruction, and recurrence of Shanghan disease due to overexertion. Taken as pills, or soaked to extract juice for oral administration, it treats Yige (dysphagia/food impaction). Decocted with sour fermented rice water into a paste for oral administration, it also treats Gu poison (poisoning by magical means or insects) and mushroom poisoning. Administered with rice drink or wine, applied externally to remove bamboo or wood splinters embedded in flesh. For attacks by evil spirits or ghosts, take a dose the size of a small bean with water.
Human Feces: Cold in nature. Primarily treats epidemic high fever with mania and running about, and resolves various toxins. Use extremely dry feces ground into powder, administered with boiling water. It effectively breaks Ding abscesses (hardened carbuncles); cut open with a new knife, apply feces, and after one day the root rots and falls off; or burn to ash, mix with vinegar to form a mud-like paste, apply to the affected area, and change when dry. Fenqing (fecal supernatant): In the twelfth lunar month, cut light green bamboo, remove skin, soak to渗 out juice, treat epidemic heat, mania, phlegm-heat toxicity, and dew-sores; administer the juice orally.
Human Urine: Cold in nature. (Urine from young boys/girls is especially good.) Primarily treats chills and fever with headache, warm qi and heat consumption causing cough and lung萎 (withering), and descends fire most rapidly. Treats sudden blood attacking the heart, traumatic blood stasis, hematemesis and severe epistaxis. Mix with a little fresh ginger juice, boil for one or two boils, and drink while hot. For difficult labor and retained placenta, decoct with ginger and scallion, drink while hot to expel the placenta. After childbirth, drink one cup warm to press down foul blood and bad matter, preventing blood syncope. Not suitable for those with Qi and Blood deficiency without heat. Apply hot urine to traumatic wounds, snake/dog bites, and hot strangury.
Washing Water from Pants, Menstrual Cloth, Women's Crotch Cloth: Primarily antidotes poisoned arrows and female post-coital relapse (Nulaofu), and Shanghan Yang-Yin Yi (sexual transmission of illness between partners). Burn menstrual cloth, administer with hot water, one Fangcun Bi. People in Jiaozhou use charcoal copper arrowheads poisoned; if pierced by such an arrow, death is imminent, but menstrual juice can detoxify it. Also, crotch cloth treats Yang-Yin Yi; cut the male crotch cloth, burn to powder, take one Fangcun Bi; virgin's cloth is especially good. If a woman suffers from Yin Yi, she must use a man's crotch cloth. Patients with Yin Yi contract the disease after sexual intercourse following recovery from an epidemic illness; it is more severe than the original disease, presenting with dark, scanty, painful urination, severe chills and fever. Taking this remedy restores bowel movement.
Dead Person's Pillow: (Obtain from a grave, boil and administer.) Treats Shizhu disease (chronic wasting disease attributed to ghosts), stone roundworms in the abdomen, evil qi invading the Liver, eye pain, and hallucinations of seeing ghosts. Someone asked: these three diseases are different, why does the dead person's pillow cure all? Xu Sibai said: Shizhu is ghostly qi, latent and inactive, causing lethargy; treating it with a dead person's pillow causes the soul's qi to fly away and not reattach, so Shizhu heals itself. Stone roundworms are formed by medical treatment into masses, where roundworms harden and cannot be expelled by worldly medicines; thus, ghostly substances are needed to drive them out, hence decocting and taking the dead person's pillow. Evil qi invading the Liver causes eye pain and seeing wuliang (monsters); one needs an evil substance to hook it out, hence using the qi of the dead person's pillow to remove it, which is why it is buried in graves.
