黑色出现在悬针纹（两眉之间）下方。即使是卢医（扁鹊，代指神医）也会感到畏惧。忽然出现腹痛且鼻头发青时，不必再寻求医生诊治。青色从眼睛横向延伸至耳朵。这种征候预示死亡。黑色环绕口部并连接眼部。很快确定无法存活。黑色出现在眉心也不吉利，十日内必然死亡。人中穴（鼻下唇上沟槽）的黑色向口内延伸。孩子将被埋葬于九泉之下。水肿病患者若鼻准头（鼻尖）发黑。这表示肾气衰竭。咳嗽病切忌白色侵入眉毛。这是肺气绝灭的征兆，需您知晓。孩子呕吐时若鼻色变白。生命断绝难以挽回。中风病切忌面色如化妆般异常红润。怎能长久生存。眼球凹陷无光泽且直视不动。必定在三日内死亡。更有瞳孔固定不动时。这是死亡的征候，需您知晓。眼睛似开非开。也是死亡的媒介。牙关紧闭完全不能进食乳食。此病最终无法治愈。排泄物像溺血（尿血样）。孤儿将无法存活。长期呕吐不止，止了又吐。不要再劳心费力去照顾。痢疾日久不进食甚至吃人肉。最终与死亡为邻。腹泻痢疾不停歇，稍停又复发。指日可待进入黄泉台（死亡）。小便困难且极度口渴。毕竟很难存活。大便即使用药也完全不通。即使是扁鹊也无能为力。耳部主疮处出现黑斑。医生也没有这种医术。久咳导致四肢皆逆冷。没有理由能够苏醒。身体发热多应昏睡不醒。不要白费精神。痘疹发出后热势不退。这种征候应当有害。排出青黑色粪便不止时。不必寻找良医。长期口渴之后加上燥渴。生命必定难得存活。腹部肿胀且呼吸粗重。最终命难复苏。
太冲穴摸不到脉搏。满口干枯唾液。身体流出黑色汗液。舌头缩短生疮。五心（两手心、两足心及心口）凸肿。泻出黑血。丹毒遍布全身。腹泻停止后又再次腹泻。直视看着人。面色发黑且狂躁。惊叫咬人。呕吐腹泻不止。鱼口气粗（口中呼出如鱼嘴般的腐臭气息）。鼻干黑燥。忽然发出乌鸦叫声。啼哭时无泪。两眼半开。四肢消瘦。气喘无声。肚子大且青筋暴露。四肢逆冷。汗珠不流动。嘴唇外翻舌头缩短。用手抓挠他人。摇头动颈。囟门凹陷如坑。唾液如拉锯声。弯腰凸腹。鼻孔内气息寒冷。患者都会死亡。以上都是死候。难以治疗。不可顺从病情（迁就病人不合理的要求）。
Black color appears below the Xuanzhen line (the vertical wrinkle between the eyebrows). Even Lu Yi (Bian Que, a metaphor for a divine physician) would feel afraid. When sudden abdominal pain occurs accompanied by a bluish nose, there is no need to seek further medical treatment. Blue color extends horizontally from the eyes into the ears. This sign indicates death. Black color surrounds the mouth and connects to the eyes; it will soon be determined that survival is impossible. Black color appearing between the eyebrows is also inauspicious; death will inevitably occur within ten days. If black color on the Renzhong point (the groove between the nose and upper lip) extends into the mouth, the child will be buried in the underworld. In patients with edema, if the tip of the nose (Zhuntou) turns black, this reports the extinction of Kidney Qi. In coughing diseases, white color invading the eyebrows must be avoided; this signifies the exhaustion of Lung Qi, which you should know. If the nose turns white when the child vomits, life is severed and cannot be regained. In stroke diseases, a face resembling makeup (abnormal ruddiness) must be avoided; how can one live long? Sunken eyes without luster combined with fixed staring indicate certain death within three days. Furthermore, when the pupils do not move, this is a sign of death that you should know. Eyes that appear half-open and half-closed are also a medium of death. Complete lockjaw preventing any intake of milk or food means the disease will ultimately not recover. Excrement resembling bloody urine indicates the orphan will not survive. Continuous vomiting that stops and restarts repeatedly; do not labor your heart to care for them. Dysentery lasting long with no appetite, even eating human flesh, eventually leads to being neighbors with death. Diarrhea and dysentery that cease and recur again indicate imminent death. Difficult urination accompanied by extreme thirst ultimately makes survival unlikely. Stool that remains completely unpassed even after medication renders Bian Que powerless. Black spots appearing on sores on the ears; physicians have no such skill. Long-term coughing leading to cold extremities throughout the body; there is no way to awaken. Body heat often accompanied by sleep from which one cannot wake; do not waste your spirit. After the eruption of smallpox/rubella, if fever does not subside, this sign should be harmful. When excreting continuous black-green feces, there is no need to seek good physicians. After long-term thirst, adding dryness-thirst indicates life will surely be hard to save. Abdominal swelling with coarse breathing ultimately means life will not revive.
Pulse at Taichong (LR3) is absent. The mouth is full of dry saliva. Black sweat appears on the body. The tongue shrinks and develops sores. The five centers (two palms, two soles, and the chest) are convex and swollen. Black blood is discharged. Erysipelas covers the whole body. Diarrhea stops and then resumes. Fixed staring at people. Black face with mania. Startled screaming and biting. Unstopping vomiting and diarrhea. Fish-mouth breath, coarse respiration. Dry, black, and parched nose. Suddenly making crow-like sounds. Crying without tears. Eyes half-open. Emaciated limbs. Panting without sound. Large abdomen with exposed blue veins. Cold extremities. Sweat beads do not flow. Lips everted and tongue retracted. Scratching at people. Shaking head and moving the neck. Fontanelle sunken like a pit. Saliva sounding like a sawing motion. Bent waist and protruding abdomen. Cold air from nostrils. All these patients will die. The above are all signs of death, difficult to treat. Do not indulge the condition.
