周芦汀乃眷，患胃脘痛，手心热，呕吐不食者四日，昼夜叫痛不辍声，脉则两手皆滑数
。予
谓当以清热止痛为先，故先与清热止痛末药二钱令服之，不一饭顷，痛遂止而睡。家人皆色
喜。予曰∶未也，此火暂息耳，其中痰积甚固，不乘时而下之，势必再作。因与总管丸三钱
，服下腹中微痛，再服二钱，又睡至天明乃寤，而腹痛亦止。大便下痰积甚多。次日以二陈
汤加枳实、姜黄、香附、山栀、黄连与之，服后胃脘之痛全止，惟小腹略觉膨 。予谓其痰
积
未尽也。再与总管丸三钱，夜服之，天明又行一次，痰积之下如前，而胃脘之痛亦绝不发矣
。
王文川令郎，原伤饮食，又伤于冷菱等物，遍身发黄，眼如金色，夜发热，天明则退，
腹痛
手不可近，号叫通宵。市医因其黄而曰胡 真矣。众议以草头药进。予至，急止之，曰∶向
以草药几误其母，复欲误其子乎!盖脾胃喜温恶寒，且此症乃食积酿成，而黄为湿热所致，
法当健脾，用温暖之剂下之，湿热去而黄自退。草头药性多寒，用之是损脾土而益其疾也，
可用哉？即以保和丸一钱，入备急丸五分，作一次服之，少顷泻一次，又少顷，连下三次，
积物所下甚多，腹痛尽止，再与调中丸服一月，不但一身之黄尽退，而步履轻捷如飞。其父
喜曰；神不误我。问其故，曰∶始议进草头药者十九，而孙君独叱其非，余不能决而决于神
，神允孙君，服果有效。而吴我峰、小楼等曰∶亦孙君之药神尔!设无孙君，神虽灵何所显
哉!众拊掌而噱。
周芦汀的夫人，患有胃脘痛，手心发热，呕吐且无法进食已达四天，昼夜不停地叫喊疼痛，脉象表现为两手皆滑数。
我认为是应当以清热止痛为首要任务，所以先给予清热止痛的散药二钱让她服用，不到一顿饭的功夫，疼痛随即停止并入睡。家人们都面露喜色。我说：“还不行，这火邪只是暂时平息罢了，她体内的痰积非常顽固，如果不趁此时机攻下，势必会再次发作。”于是给予总管丸三钱，服下后腹中微痛，再服两钱，又睡到天亮才醒来，腹痛也随之停止。大便排出了大量的痰积。第二天用二陈汤加入枳实、姜黄、香附、山栀、黄连给她服用，服药后胃脘痛完全停止，只有小腹略微觉得胀满。我对她说这是痰积尚未清除干净。再给予总管丸三钱，夜间服用，天亮后又排便一次，排出的痰积与之前一样多，而胃脘痛也再也没有发作了。
王文川的儿子，原本饮食受伤，又因食用冷菱等食物受损，全身发黄，眼睛像金色一样，夜间发热，天亮时热退，腹痛剧烈到手不能触碰，通宵号叫。街上的医生因为他发黄就说这是“胡（狐）疰”病。众人商议用草药治疗。我赶到后，急忙制止他们说：“以前用草药差点害了你的母亲，现在又想害你的儿子吗？脾胃喜欢温暖而厌恶寒冷，况且这个病症是食积酿成的，而发黄是由湿热导致的，治法应当健脾，使用温热的药剂来攻下，湿热去除后黄色自然消退。草药的性质大多寒凉，使用它们就是损伤脾土而加重病情，怎么可以用呢？”于是只用保和丸一钱，加入备急丸五分，一次性服用，过了一会儿泻了一次，又过了一会儿，连续泻了三次，排出的积滞物非常多，腹痛完全停止，再服用调中丸一个月，不仅全身的黄色全部消退，而且步履轻盈如飞。他的父亲高兴地说：“神明没有误我。”问他原因，他说：“起初提议用草药的人占了十九个，只有孙君独自斥责他们的错误，我不能决定而决定于神明，神明赞同孙君，服药果然有效。而吴我峰、小楼等人说：‘这也是孙君的用药如神啊！如果没有孙君，神明虽然灵验又在哪里显现呢！’众人拍手大笑。”
Ms. Zhou Luting suffered from epigastric pain, with heat in the palms of her hands, vomiting and inability to eat for four days. She cried out in pain day and night without ceasing, and her pulse was slippery and rapid in both hands.
I believed that clearing heat and stopping pain should be the priority, so I first administered two qian of a powder for clearing heat and stopping pain. Within the time it takes to finish a meal, the pain ceased, and she fell asleep. Her family members were delighted. I said, "Not yet. This fire pathogen has only temporarily subsided; the phlegm accumulation within is very solid. If we do not purge it at this opportune moment, it will inevitably recur." Therefore, I prescribed three qian of Zongguan Wan (General Manager Pill). After taking it, she experienced slight abdominal pain. After taking another two qian, she slept until dawn when she woke up, and the abdominal pain also stopped. A large amount of phlegm accumulation was passed in the stool. The next day, I prescribed Erchen Tang (Two-Cured Decoction) added with Zhishi (Immature Bitter Orange), Jianghuang (Turmeric Rhizome), Xiangfu (Cyperus Rhizome), Shanzhi (Gardenia Fruit), and Huanglian (Coptis Rhizome). After ingestion, the epigastric pain completely ceased, leaving only a slight sensation of distension in the lower abdomen. I stated that the phlegm accumulation had not been fully cleared. I again prescribed three qian of Zongguan Wan, taken at night. At dawn, she defecated once more, passing as much phlegm accumulation as before, and the epigastric pain never recurred.
Mr. Wang Wenchuan's son originally suffered from dietary injury and further injured himself by consuming cold water caltrops and other foods. His whole body turned yellow, his eyes appeared golden, he had fever at night which subsided at dawn, severe abdominal pain that could not be touched, and he wailed throughout the night. Local physicians, seeing the jaundice, diagnosed it as Hu Zhu (Fox Malaria/Infectious Disease). The crowd discussed using herbal remedies (grass-head medicines). Upon my arrival, I urgently stopped them, saying, "Previously, using herbal medicine nearly harmed your mother; do you now wish to harm your son? The Spleen and Stomach prefer warmth and dislike cold. Moreover, this condition is caused by food stagnation fermenting, while the jaundice is induced by damp-heat. The treatment method should be to strengthen the Spleen and use warm agents to purge [the stagnation]. Once the damp-heat is removed, the jaundice will naturally recede. Herbal medicines are mostly cold in nature; using them would damage the Spleen Earth and exacerbate the disease. How can they be used?" I therefore prescribed one qian of Baohe Wan (Preserve Harmony Pill) mixed with five fen of Beijji Wan (Emergency Preparation Pill), taken at once. After a short while, he had one bowel movement; after another short while, he had three consecutive movements. A large amount of stagnant matter was expelled, and the abdominal pain completely stopped. He then took Tiao Zhong Wan (Regulate Middle Pill) for one month. Not only did the jaundice on his entire body completely recede, but his gait became light and swift as if flying. His father rejoiced, saying, "The Divine Spirit has not misled me." When asked why, he replied, "Nineteen out of twenty initially proposed using herbal remedies, but only Master Sun alone condemned their error. I could not decide, so I decided through the Divine Spirit. The Divine Spirit agreed with Master Sun, and the medication proved effective. Wu Wofeng, Xiaolou, and others said, 'It is also due to Master Sun's divine skill in prescribing! If there were no Master Sun, where would the Divine Spirit's efficacy be manifested?' Everyone clapped their hands and laughed."
