【代赭石】
气性寒。味道苦。无毒。主治鬼疰（一种慢性消耗性疾病，常由精神因素或传染病引起）、贼风（指不正之风邪）、蛊毒（指寄生虫或中毒引起的疾病）。能杀死精怪恶鬼，清除肠道中的毒邪之气。主治妇女赤白带下及崩漏不止。（炮制方法：用火烧红后浸入醋中淬炼）
代赭石气性寒，禀受自然界冬季寒冷的水气，进入足少阴肾经；味道苦且无毒，获得大地南方的火味，进入手少阴心经。其气味都主沉降，属于阴。天地是阴阳的形体，水火是阴阳的作用。肾为坎水，代赭石气寒能益肾，则肾水中的阳气上升；心为离火，代赭石味苦能益心，则心火中的阴气下降。水升火降，阴阳互相藏匿于其宅中，天地之位便安定了。所以鬼疰、邪气、精魅恶鬼、贼风毒邪，都不能干扰人体。即使有邪气侵入，也必定被驱除。寒性能清热，苦性能泄邪，所以又能主治蛊毒以及腹中的邪毒。肾主管二便，心主管血液。血热则导致赤沃（赤白带下）和漏下（崩漏），苦寒之性能清心火，使心肾相交，所以主治妇女赤沃漏下。
制方：
代赭石与旋覆花、人参、半夏、生姜、大枣、甘草同用，名为旋覆代赭汤。治疗伤寒经过发汗、催吐、泻下之后，胃脘部痞塞硬满，嗳气不止。研成细粉，用真金汤送服，可治疗小儿惊风症。
【紫石英】
气性温。味道甘。无毒。主治心腹部的咳逆邪气，补益不足。主治妇女风寒侵袭子宫，导致十年不孕。长期服用能温中焦，轻身延年。（炮制方法：用火烧红后浸入醋中淬炼）
紫石英气性温，禀受自然界春季温和的木气，进入足厥阴肝经；味道甘且无毒，获得大地中正的土味，进入足太阴脾经。其气味都主升浮，属于阳。心腹部是足太阴脾经循行的部位。肺虚不能生金（此处原文逻辑似有误，通常肺属金，脾属土，土生金，若肺虚不能生肺语意不通，结合下文“肺失下降”，应理解为肺气虚弱，肃降功能失常），肺失去下降的职能，则邪气上逆而咳嗽。紫石英味道甘、质地重，能补益脾土并降逆气，所以主治咳嗽。“补不足”是指：气性温能补肝气的不足，味道甘能补脾阴的不足。厥阴肝经的脉络连接阴器，所以子宫也归属于肝经。肝是两阴交尽的经脉，属于风木之腑。风寒在子宫，则肝血不能固藏，脾血也不能统摄，导致不能生育受孕。脾土的生成数包含十，所以表现为十年不孕。紫石英气性温，可以疏散子宫的风寒；味道甘可以补益肝脾的血分。中，指中州的脾土。长期服用甘温之品能补益脾气，所以能温中。肝木条达舒畅，脾土健运正常，所以身体轻盈，延年益寿。
制方：
紫石英与白薇、艾叶、白胶（阿胶）、当归身、山茱萸、川芎、香附同用，治疗妇女绝孕无子。与龙齿、牡蛎、甘草、北五味子、炮姜同用，治疗小儿惊风症。
[Daizheshi]
The qi is cold. The flavor is bitter. It is non-toxic. It primarily treats Guizhu (a chronic wasting disease often caused by spiritual factors or infectious diseases), Zeifeng (pathogenic winds that are irregular), and Guduo (diseases caused by parasites or poisoning). It kills spirits, evil ghosts, clears toxic pathogenic qi in the intestines, and treats women with red leukorrhea and metrorrhagia (bleeding between periods or prolonged bleeding). (Processing method: Quench in vinegar after heating to redness)
Daizheshi has a cold qi, inheriting the cold water qi of winter from nature, entering the Foot Shaoyin Kidney Meridian. Its flavor is bitter and non-toxic, acquiring the fire flavor of the south from the earth, entering the Hand Shaoyin Heart Meridian. Both its qi and flavor descend; it belongs to Yin. Heaven and Earth are the forms of Yin and Yang; Water and Fire are the functions of Yin and Yang. The Kidney is Kan Water; Daizheshi's cold qi benefits the Kidney, causing the Yang Qi within the Kidney Water to ascend. The Heart is Li Fire; Daizheshi's bitter flavor benefits the Heart, causing the Yin Qi within the Heart Fire to descend. When Water ascends and Fire descends, Yin and Yang hide within their respective dwellings, and the positions of Heaven and Earth are established. Therefore, Guizhu, pathogenic qi, spirits, evil ghosts, Zeifeng, and toxic pathogens cannot interfere with the body. Even if pathogens invade, they will surely be expelled. Cold nature clears heat; bitter nature drains pathogens. Thus, it also treats Guduo and toxic pathogens in the abdomen. The Kidney governs urination and defecation; the Heart governs blood. Heat in the blood leads to red leukorrhea and metrorrhagia. Bitter and cold properties clear Heart Fire, allowing Heart and Kidney to interact, thus treating women's red leukorrhea and metrorrhagia.
Prescription:
Daizheshi combined with Xuanfuhua (Inulae Flos), Renshen (Ginseng Radix), Banxia (Pinelliae Rhizoma), Shengjiang (Zingiberis Recens Rhizoma), Dazao (Jujubae Fructus), and Gancao (Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma) is named Xuanfu Daizhe Tang (Inula and Hematite Decoction). It treats post-typhoid conditions following sweating, vomiting, or purging, characterized by epigastric fullness and hardness, and persistent belching. Ground into fine powder, taken with Zhenjin Tang (True Gold Decoction), it treats pediatric convulsive disorders.
[Ziyingshi]
The qi is warm. The flavor is sweet. It is non-toxic. It primarily treats cough and rebellious qi due to pathogenic factors in the heart and abdomen, tonifies deficiencies. It treats women whose uterus is invaded by Wind-Cold, resulting in infertility for ten years. Long-term use warms the Middle Jiao, lightens the body, and prolongs life. (Processing method: Quench in vinegar after heating to redness)
Ziyingshi has a warm qi, inheriting the mild Wood qi of spring from nature, entering the Foot Jueyin Liver Meridian. Its flavor is sweet and non-toxic, acquiring the central Earth flavor from the earth, entering the Foot Taiyin Spleen Meridian. Both its qi and flavor ascend; it belongs to Yang. The heart and abdomen are areas traversed by the Foot Taiyin Meridian. If Lung Qi is deficient and fails to generate Metal (Note: Text implies Lung deficiency affecting descent), and the Lung loses its descending function, pathogenic qi rebels upward causing cough. Ziyingshi, with its sweet flavor and heavy substance, benefits Spleen Earth and directs rebellious Qi downward, thus treating cough. "Tonifying deficiency" refers to: Warm qi tonifies insufficiency of Liver Qi; sweet flavor tonifies insufficiency of Spleen Yin. The Jueyin meridian connects to the genitalia, so the uterus also belongs to the Liver Meridian. The Liver is the meridian where two Yins meet, belonging to the Wind-Wood organ. If Wind-Cold is in the uterus, Liver Blood cannot be stored, and Spleen Blood cannot control it, leading to inability to conceive. The generative number of Spleen Earth includes ten, hence infertility for ten years. Ziyingshi's warm qi can disperse Wind-Cold in the uterus; its sweet flavor can benefit Liver and Spleen Blood. "Zhong" refers to the Central Earth (Spleen). Long-term use of sweet and warm substances benefits Spleen Qi, thus warming the Middle. When Liver Wood flows smoothly and Spleen Earth functions vigorously, the body becomes light and life is prolonged.
Prescription:
Ziyingshi combined with Baiwei (Cynanchi Atrati Radix), Aiye (Artemisiae Argyi Folium), Baijiao (Echini Corneum / Donkey-hide Gelatin - Note: Context suggests Ejiao), Dangguishen (Angelicae Sinensis Radix), Shanzhuyu (Corni Fructus), Chuanxiong (Ligustici Chuanxiong Rhizoma), and Xiangfu (Cyperi Rhizoma) treats female infertility. Combined with Longchi (Draconis Os), Muli (Ostreae Concha), Gancao (Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma), Beiweizi (Schisandrae Chinensis Fructus), and Paojiang (Zingiberis Rhizoma Preparatum), it treats pediatric convulsive disorders.
