(White ones that are not worm-eaten are of good quality. Angelicae Sinensis Radix (Danggui) serves as its guiding herb. It is incompatible with Inulae Flos (Xuanfuhua). Realgar (Xionghuang) and Sulfur (Liuhuang) require processing.)
(Cut finely, stir-fry with mutton fat in proportion until the mutton fat is completely absorbed. For every jin (approx. 500g) of material processed, use four liang (approx. 200g) of mutton fat as the limit. Dioscoreae Rhizoma (Shuyu) and Ganoderma (Zizhi) serve as its guiding herbs. It acts better when processed with wine.)
(Da Ye Huang Qin (Scutellariae Radix, large-leaf variety) enters the Lung Meridian; use Ku Huang Qin (withered Scutellariae Radix), remove decayed parts, soak in wine, slice, and stir-fry. For entering the Large Intestine Meridian or for calming the fetus, use Zi Huang Qin (seed-bearing Scutellariae Radix), soak in wine, slice, and stir-fry. Longgu (Fossilized Bones) and Corni Fructus (Shanzhuyu) serve as its guiding herbs. It is incompatible with Allii Macrostemonis Bulbus (Congshi). It fears Cinnabar (Dansha), Paeoniae Moutan Cortex (Mudanpi), and Veratrum (Lilü).)
(For processing: first fire-burn to remove fine hairs, cut finely, mix with wine, steam from Si hour to Shen hour, then sun-dry. Bijiexie (Dioscoreae Hypoglaucae Rhizoma) serves as its guiding herb. It is incompatible with Cyperi Rhizoma (Shacao) and Patriniae Herba (Baijiang).)
(Wash clean, pound into a paste. Do not use the exposed root part.)
(Twash thoroughly with water flowing from east to west, soak overnight in honey, bake dry over fire. For every liang (approx. 50g) of material processed, use two fen (approx. 1g) of honey. Tussilaginis Flos (Kuandonghua) serves as its guiding herb. It is incompatible with Aconiti Lateralis Radix Preparata (Tianxiong), Bolbitis Hebecaulis Rhizoma (Benleiwanyuan - *Note: likely refers to specific parasitic or related herb context, literal translation kept*), Polygalae Radix (Yuanzhi), and Epimedii Herba (Qumai). It fears Artemisiae Scopariae Herba (Yinchen).)
(True Zicao (Arnebiae Radix seu Rhizoma / Lithospermi Radix) is best. It must be steamed with wax water. After the water dries, remove the head and side hairs, cut finely. For every jin of Zicao processed, use three liang of wax. Melt the wax cleanly in a pot, then add wax water to make a decoction.)
(It is Mutong (Akebiae Caulis). There are purple and white varieties. The purple one has thick skin and pungent taste; the white one has thin skin and bland taste. Both can promote urination and unblock obstructions.)
(Remove the rhizome neck (Lu), wash, slice. Incompatible with Ruxiao (*likely typo for Rucao or similar, literal 'Ru' kept*). It fears Celosiae Semen (Qingxiangzi).)
(Wipe off the yellow hair on the back thoroughly. Stir-fry with mutton fat until scorched yellow. Talcum (Huashi), Armeniacae Semen (Xingren), and Belamcandae Rhizoma (Shegan) serve as its guiding herbs. It benefits from Acori Tatarinowii Rhizoma (Changpu). Danting (Cinnabar) and Alumen (Fanshi) require processing.)
(The roots that are slender, shallow, and pale white are authentic. Soak in wine overnight, bake dry. Avoid iron. Coicis Semen (Yiyiren) serves as its guiding herb. It fears Peucedani Radix (Qianhu), Bupleuri Radix (Chaihu), Ostrea Concha (Muli), Rheomi Radix et Rhizoma (Dahuang), Malvae Root (Kugen).)
(Avoid iron. Avoid tea.)
(Soak overnight in rice washing water. Take out the next day, remove hairs, cut finely on a locust wood chopping board, steam from Si hour to Shen hour. In summer, soak for about two shichen (4 hours). Incompatible with Huangqin (Scutellariae Radix), Shengjiang (Zingiberis Rhizoma Recens), Dazao (Jujubae Fructus), Shanzhuyu (Corni Fructus), Dahuang (Rhei Radix et Rhizoma), Daye (Euphorbiae Pekinensis Radix), and Ganqi (Resina Draconis).)
(Grows everywhere. Harvest stems in March and April, dry in shade.)
(Those produced in Qizhou are superior. For medicinal use, apply new fire-roasting method. Use aged Kujue (Vinegar) and Xiangfu (Cyperi Rhizoma) as guiding herbs.)
(Also known as Shuniuzi, Niubangzi, or Daliizi. Mix with wine, steam until a thin white frost appears on the surface. Wipe clean with cloth, then bake dry and pound into powder for use.)
