论细小疾病
天师曰∶浅者，因病未深而浅治之，不必深治之者也。如人患细小疾病。何必张皇而用人参，惊惧
而加桂、附。饮食不调，用六君子可也∶头痛，用小柴胡汤可也∶咳嗽，用逍遥散可也；水泻，用五苓散可
也∶腹痛，用小建中汤可也；
两肋饱闷，亦用逍遥散可也。盖略一舒之，自必奏功，无容以深中脏腑之药，以治皮毛也。此浅治之
法，又宜知之也。
张公曰∶浅治法妙。
华君曰∶无。
论痿症 论腰痛 论背脊骨痛 论两腿酸痛 论 肉扳睛 论痉病
天师曰∶长治者，永远之症，不可以岁月计也。如病痿症、痉症是也。痿病，必久卧床席，不能辄
起，其故何也？盖诸痿之症，尽属阳明胃火，胃火铄尽肾水，则骨中空虚无滋润，则不能起立矣。然则止
治阳明，而骨中之髓何日充满，欲其双足有力难矣。方用元参一两，熟地二两，麦冬一两，牛膝二钱，
水煎服。（〔批〕消阴坚骨汤。）此方之妙，全在不去治阳明而直治肾经，以补其匮乏。肾水一生，则
胃火自然息焰，况又有麦冬以清肺气，牛膝以坚膝胫，故以此方长治之，则痿废之状可免。若徒以石膏、
知母之类降其胃中之火，火降矣，肾水益干，又将何物以充足其骨髓乎。无怪经年累月，愈治而愈惫也，
此长治之法，不可不知之。
张公曰∶妙。长治法，不止痿痉二项，予为广之。如腰痛，背脊骨痛，两腿酸痛，两目生 肉扳睛是
也，腰痛服药，服之不验者，乃湿气入于两腰子也，最难治。补肾水而益痛，泻肾水而觉空，去风而无益，
去寒而转增，去火而益甚，此所以知为水湿之症也。外无水象，内无水形，令人揣摩不着，
然余实有辨而知之之法。凡腰痛而不能下俯者是也。方用柴胡一钱，防己二钱，泽泻一钱，猪苓一钱，肉
桂三分，白术五钱，甘草五分，山药三钱，白芥子一钱，水煎服。（〔批〕解湿仙丹。）此方妙在入肾而去
湿气，不是入肾而补水，然须多服为妙。大约此等腰痛，初起之时，三四剂即可奏功，痛至经年累月者，非
服二月不效也。
腰不能俯者，水湿；腰不能直者，非水湿，乃风寒也。用逍遥散，加防己一钱。初起时，一剂可愈，
久则非一剂可愈也。当改用白术二两，杜仲一两，酒煎服，十剂可愈。（〔批〕利腰丹。）可为长治之法。
背脊骨痛者，乃肾水衰耗，不能上润于脑，则河车之路干涩而难行，故尔作痛。此等症，非一二剂可以
见功。非久服补气之药以生阴，非大服补阴之药以生水，未易奏功也。方用黄 一两，熟地一两，山茱萸
四钱，麦冬四钱，北五味一钱，白术五钱，防风五分，茯苓三钱，附子一分，水煎服。（〔批〕润河汤。）
此方补气则有黄 、白术，补水则有熟地、山茱，去湿则有茯苓，去风则有防风，引经则有附子，而又麦
冬以生肾水之母，自然金旺生水，水足则河车之路不干，不干则润金滋骨可知，又何痛之作楚。既不痛矣，
又何背之不直哉。然此方不能奏近功于旦夕，必须多服、久服乃效，所以入之于长治之门也。
两腿酸痛，又不如是治法。此湿气入于骨中，而皮外无湿也。此病不止骨内而受湿气，或被褥中得
之也。方用薏仁二两，芡实一两，茯苓三钱，肉桂一钱，牛膝二钱，萆 一钱，水煎服。（〔批〕壮骨去
湿丹。）此方之妙，妙在薏仁能入骨而去水，加芡实健脾以去湿，不使湿以增湿，而牛膝、萆 ，又
是最利双足之品，又加肉桂，引经直入于骨中，湿有不去，酸疼有不止者乎。但脚中之病，乃人身之
下流，一有病，不易去之。况湿气在骨，如陆地低洼之处，久已成潭，如何能车水即干，必多用人功，而后
可以告竭。故此方必须多服、久服，正是此意。
肉扳睛，乃眼病失治而生肉。人不知避忌，将眼皮翻转，以取凉快，谁知风忽中之，则眼毛倒
生而扳睛矣。此等病最忌动刀，一动刀则不可内治矣，法当用丸散以消之。然非服至半年，不能奏效。方
用甘菊花十两，须用家园自种者为妙，否则断不可用，白芍一斤，当归半斤，柴胡四两，丹皮三两，葳
蕤一斤，同州蒺藜一斤，草决明四两，茯苓十两，麦冬十两，天门冬十两，枸杞子一斤，名为末，蜜为丸。
每日饥服一两，一料少愈，二料全痊。最忌房事，能断欲者，一料全愈，否则必须二料、三料也。此亦
长治之一法，可参用之，故又广之如此。
天师曰∶痉病乃寒湿之气集之双足之间，骨中寒痛而不可止，亦终岁经年不能身离床褥，伛偻之状可
掬，其故何也？盖诸痉尽皆水湿也，水气久不出，则一身之关节，无非水气之弥空，土无权矣，又何以分
消而利道哉。然则止治其水，而湿气可以尽去，乃治水亦终岁经年，仍然不验者为何？徒治水而不治土
也。方用白术五钱，薏仁二两，芡实三钱，茯苓一两，肉桂一钱，牛膝一钱，萆 一两，杜仲三钱，水煎服。
此方之妙，利其水湿之气，又不耗其真阴，日日吞服，不必改方。服之三月，必然如旧，再服三月，必然步
履如初矣。此真长治之法，人亦遵守而不可更改者也。
华君曰∶同。
雷公曰∶痉病方∶白术四两，薏仁八两，山药八两，车
前子一两，牛膝三两，生黄 十两，肉桂一两，杜仲四两，各为末，蜜为丸。每日饭前，酒送下一两。
一料必全愈，用补于利之中也。
又方治痿∶用元参一两，甘菊花五钱，麦冬一两，熟地二两，牛膝五钱，天门冬三钱，水煎服。
此方与天师同意。（妙）
论细小疾病
天师说：所谓“浅治”，是指病情尚轻、未深入体内时进行的轻微治疗，不需要进行深度治疗。比如人患上了细小的疾病。何必惊慌失措而使用人参，又何必因恐惧而在方中加入桂枝和附子。如果是饮食不调引起的不适，使用六君子汤即可；头痛，使用小柴胡汤即可；咳嗽，使用逍遥散即可；水样腹泻，使用五苓散即可；腹痛，使用小建中汤即可；两肋胀闷，也使用逍遥散即可。只要稍微疏通调理一下，自然能收到疗效，没有必要用那些深入脏腑的猛药来治疗皮毛之疾。这就是浅治的方法，应当了解。
天师说：所谓“长治”，是指那些长期的慢性病，不能用短期的时间长短来计算。比如痿症、痉症就是这样。痿病，必定长期卧床，不能随意起身，这是什么原因呢？大概各种痿症，都归属于阳明胃火过旺。胃火灼烧耗尽肾水，导致骨骼中空缺乏滋润，所以就不能站立了。那么，如果只治疗阳明经，骨头中的髓质何日才能充满，想要双足有力是很难的。方剂用玄参一两，熟地黄二两，麦冬一两，牛膝二钱，加水煎服。（批注：消阴坚骨汤。）这个方子的妙处，全在于不直接去治阳明经，而是直接治疗肾经，以补充其匮乏。肾水一旦滋生，胃火自然熄灭，况且又有麦冬来清肺气，牛膝来坚固膝盖和小腿，所以用这个方子进行长期调理，就可以避免痿废的状态。如果仅仅用石膏、知母之类药物来降低胃火，火虽然降了，但肾水更加干枯，又将用什么东西来充足骨髓呢？难怪经过长年累月，越治身体越虚弱，这就是长治的方法，不可不知道。
张公说：妙。长治法，不仅仅局限于痿症和痉症这两项，我为您扩展一下。比如腰痛、背脊骨痛、两腿酸痛、两眼长出肉攀睛等病症。腰痛服药后无效的情况，是因为湿气进入了两个肾脏区域，最难治疗。补肾水反而疼痛加剧，泻肾水则感觉空虚，祛风没有益处，散寒反而加重，清热火势更甚，这就是知道它是水湿病症的原因。外表没有水象，内部没有水形，让人难以揣测诊断，但我确实有辨别知晓的方法。凡是腰痛且不能弯腰俯身的人就是这种情况。方剂用柴胡一钱，防己二钱，泽泻一钱，猪苓一钱，肉桂三分，白术五钱，甘草五分，山药三钱，白芥子一钱，加水煎服。（批注：解湿仙丹。）这个方子的妙处在于入肾而去湿气，而不是入肾补水，然而必须多服用才有效。大约这种腰痛，在初起之时，三四剂就能见效，如果疼痛持续经年累月，非服用两个月不会见效。
腰部不能俯身的，是水湿；腰部不能直立的，不是水湿，而是风寒。使用逍遥散，加防己一钱。初起时，一剂可愈，时间久了就不是一剂能治愈的了。应当改用白术二两，杜仲一两，酒煎服，十剂可愈。（批注：利腰丹。）可以作为长治的方法。
背脊骨痛，是由于肾水衰耗，不能向上滋润脑部，导致河车之路（指督脉或精气运行通道）干涩难行，所以产生疼痛。这类病症，不是一两剂药就能见效的。必须长期服用补气药以生阴，大量服用补阴药以生水，才容易奏效。方剂用黄芪一两，熟地黄一两，山茱萸四钱，麦冬四钱，北五味子一钱，白术五钱，防风五分，茯苓三钱，附子一分，加水煎服。（批注：润河汤。）这个方子补气则有黄芪、白术，补水则有熟地黄、山茱萸，去湿则有茯苓，去风则有防风，引经则有附子，而又用麦冬来生肾水之母（肺金），自然金旺生水，水充足则河车之路不干，路不干则滋润筋骨可知，又怎么会疼痛剧烈呢？既然不痛了，背部又怎么会不挺直呢？然而这个方子不能在朝夕间迅速见效，必须多服、久服才有效，所以将其归入长治的范畴。
两腿酸痛，又不像上述那样治疗。这是湿气侵入骨头之中，而皮肤表面没有湿气。这种病不仅仅是骨内受湿气，也可能是被褥中沾染所致。方剂用薏苡仁二两，芡实一两，茯苓三钱，肉桂一钱，牛膝二钱，萆薢一钱，加水煎服。（批注：壮骨去湿丹。）这个方子的妙处，在于薏苡仁能入骨而去水，加上芡实健脾以去湿，不让湿气助长湿气，而牛膝、萆薢，又是最利于双腿的药物，再加上肉桂，引导药力直入骨中，湿气哪有不去除、酸疼哪有不止止的道理呢？但是脚部的疾病，属于人身体的下流部位，一旦生病，不容易去除。况且湿气在骨中，就像陆地低洼之处，久了已成深潭，怎么能用车水即干那样快速解决呢？必须多用人工（药物之力），然后才能排尽。所以这个方子必须多服、久服，正是这个意思。
肉攀睛，是眼病失治而生出的肉膜。人们不知道避忌，将眼皮翻转，以求凉快，谁知风邪忽然侵袭其中，导致眼睫毛倒生而形成肉攀睛。这类病最忌讳动刀，一动刀就不能通过内服药物治疗了，方法应当使用丸散来消除它。然而如果不服用半年，不能见效。方剂用甘菊花十两，最好是用自家园子里种植的，否则绝对不可用，白芍一斤，当归半斤，柴胡四两，牡丹皮三两，玉竹一斤，同州蒺藜一斤，草决明四两，茯苓十两，麦冬十两，天门冬十两，枸杞子一斤，共同研为细末，蜂蜜制成丸药。每天饥饿时服用一两，吃一副药稍见好转，吃两副药完全痊愈。最忌讳房事，能断绝性欲的，一副药即可全愈，否则必须吃两副、三副药。这也是长治的一种方法，可以参考使用，所以我这样广泛地论述它。
天师说：痉病是寒湿之气聚集在双脚之间，骨中寒冷疼痛而不可停止，也是终年经岁不能离开床铺，弯曲驼背的样子令人怜悯，这是什么原因呢？大概各种痉病都是水湿造成的，水气长久不出，则全身的关节，无非是水气弥漫填充，土气失去了权能，又凭什么来分别消除并通利水道呢？那么，如果只治疗水，湿气可以全部去除，但是治水也是终年经岁，仍然无效是什么原因呢？只是治水而不治土啊。方剂用白术五钱，薏苡仁二两，芡实三钱，茯苓一两，肉桂一钱，牛膝一钱，萆薢一两，杜仲三钱，加水煎服。这个方子的妙处，在于利其水湿之气，又不消耗真阴，每天吞服，不必改方。服用三个月，必然恢复如初，再服用三个月，必然步履如常。这真是长治的方法，人们也应遵守而不可更改。
华君说：相同。
雷公说：治痉病的方子：白术四两，薏苡仁八两，山药八两，车前子一两，牛膝三两，生黄芪十两，肉桂一两，杜仲四两，各研为细末，蜂蜜制成丸药。每天饭前，用酒送服一两。一副药必全愈，这是在利湿中加以补益。
又一个方子治痿症：用玄参一两，甘菊花五钱，麦冬一两，熟地黄二两，牛膝五钱，天门冬三钱，加水煎服。
这个方子与天师的用意相同。（奇妙）
On Minor Diseases
The Heavenly Master said: "Shallow treatment" refers to treating a disease lightly when it has not yet penetrated deeply, without the need for deep intervention. For instance, when a person suffers from minor ailments. Why should one panic and use Ren Shen (Ginseng Root), or add Gui Zhi (Cinnamon Twig) and Fu Zi (Aconite Root) out of fear? If the discomfort is due to irregular diet, Liu Jun Zi Tang (Six Gentlemen Decoction) will suffice; for headache, Xiao Chai Hu Tang (Minor Bupleurum Decoction) will suffice; for cough, Xiao Yao San (Free and Easy Wanderer Powder) will suffice; for watery diarrhea, Wu Ling San (Five Ingredient Powder with Poria) will suffice; for abdominal pain, Xiao Jian Zhong Tang (Minor Construct the Middle Decoction) will suffice; for fullness and stuffiness in both hypochondria, Xiao Yao San (Free and Easy Wanderer Powder) will also suffice. A slight soothing and regulation will naturally yield results; there is no need to use potent medicines that penetrate deeply into the zang-fu organs to treat superficial conditions. This is the method of shallow treatment, which should be understood.
Master Zhang said: The method of shallow treatment is excellent.
Master Hua said: I agree.
On Wei Syndrome, Low Back Pain, Spinal Pain, Soreness and Pain in Both Legs, Caruncle Overgrowing the Pupil (Rou Pan Jing), and Jing Syndrome
The Heavenly Master said: "Long-term management" refers to chronic conditions that cannot be measured by short periods of time, such as Wei Syndrome (Flaccidity Syndrome) and Jing Syndrome (Spasm Syndrome). In Wei syndrome, patients must remain in bed for long periods and cannot rise easily. What is the reason? Generally, all types of Wei syndrome are attributed to excessive Stomach Fire in the Yangming channel. When Stomach Fire scorches and exhausts Kidney Water, the bones become hollow and lack nourishment, making standing impossible. Therefore, if one only treats the Yangming channel, how can the marrow in the bones be replenished, and how can one expect strength in both legs? The prescription uses Xuan Shen (Scrophularia Root) 1 liang, Shu Di Huang (Prepared Rehmannia Root) 2 liang, Mai Dong (Ophiopogon Tuber) 1 liang, and Niu Xi (Achyranthes Root) 2 qian, decocted in water and taken orally. (Annotation: Xiao Yin Jian Gu Tang - Decoction to Eliminate Yin Hardness and Strengthen Bones.) The brilliance of this formula lies in not directly treating the Yangming channel but instead directly treating the Kidney channel to replenish its deficiency. Once Kidney Water is generated, Stomach Fire will naturally subside. Moreover, Mai Dong clears Lung Qi, and Niu Xi strengthens the knees and shins. Thus, using this formula for long-term management can prevent flaccid paralysis. If one merely uses Shi Gao (Gypsum Fibrosum) and Zhi Mu (Anemarrhena Rhizome) to lower Stomach Fire, although the fire may decrease, Kidney Water will become even drier. What substance will then be sufficient to fill the bone marrow? No wonder that after months and years, the more one treats, the weaker the patient becomes. This is the method of long-term management, which must be known.
Master Zhang said: Excellent. The method of long-term management is not limited to Wei and Jing syndromes; let me expand upon it. It applies to low back pain, spinal pain, soreness and pain in both legs, and caruncle overgrowing the pupil (Rou Pan Jing). In cases of low back pain where medication fails, it is because dampness has entered the lumbar region (kidneys), which is the most difficult to treat. Tonifying Kidney Water aggravates the pain; draining Kidney Water causes a feeling of emptiness; dispelling wind yields no benefit; dispersing cold worsens the condition; clearing heat intensifies the fire. This indicates that it is a damp-water syndrome. There are no external signs of water, nor internal forms of water, making diagnosis difficult. However, I have a method to distinguish it. It is characterized by low back pain accompanied by an inability to bend forward. The prescription uses Chai Hu (Bupleurum Root) 1 qian, Fang Ji (Stephania Root) 2 qian, Ze Xie (Alisma Rhizome) 1 qian, Zhu Ling (Polyporus) 1 qian, Rou Gui (Cinnamon Bark) 3 fen, Bai Zhu (Atractylodes Macrocephala Rhizome) 5 qian, Gan Cao (Licorice Root) 5 fen, Shan Yao (Dioscorea Rhizome) 3 qian, and Bai Jie Zi (White Mustard Seed) 1 qian, decocted in water and taken orally. (Annotation: Jie Shi Xian Dan - Immortal Pill to Resolve Dampness.) The brilliance of this formula lies in entering the Kidney to resolve dampness, rather than tonifying the Kidney with fluids. However, it must be taken frequently to be effective. Generally, for such low back pain at the onset, three to four doses will yield results. If the pain has persisted for years, it requires two months of administration to show effect.
Inability to bend the waist indicates damp-water; inability to straighten the waist indicates wind-cold, not damp-water. Use Xiao Yao San (Free and Easy Wanderer Powder) with Fang Ji (Stephania Root) 1 qian added. At the onset, one dose can cure it; if prolonged, one dose is insufficient. One should switch to Bai Zhu (Atractylodes Macrocephala Rhizome) 2 liang and Du Zhong (Eucommia Bark) 1 liang, decocted in wine. Ten doses will cure it. (Annotation: Li Yao Dan - Pill to Benefit the Waist.) This can serve as a method for long-term management.
Spinal pain is caused by the depletion of Kidney Water, which fails to moisten the brain upwards. Consequently, the path of He Che (the vehicle of essence, referring to the Du Mai or vital energy pathway) becomes dry and difficult to traverse, causing pain. Such conditions do not respond to one or two doses. Long-term administration of Qi-tonifying herbs to generate Yin, and substantial administration of Yin-nourishing herbs to generate Water, is required to achieve efficacy. The prescription uses Huang Qi (Astragalus Root) 1 liang, Shu Di Huang (Prepared Rehmannia Root) 1 liang, Shan Zhu Yu (Cornus Fruit) 4 qian, Mai Dong (Ophiopogon Tuber) 4 qian, Bei Wu Wei Zi (Schisandra Berry) 1 qian, Bai Zhu (Atractylodes Macrocephala Rhizome) 5 qian, Fang Feng (Saposhnikovia Root) 5 fen, Fu Ling (Poria) 3 qian, and Fu Zi (Aconite Root) 1 fen, decocted in water and taken orally. (Annotation: Run He Tang - Decoction to Moisten the Vehicle.) This formula tonifies Qi with Huang Qi (Astragalus Root) and Bai Zhu (Atractylodes Macrocephala Rhizome); tonifies Water with Shu Di Huang (Prepared Rehmannia Root) and Shan Zhu Yu (Cornus Fruit); resolves dampness with Fu Ling (Poria); dispels wind with Fang Feng (Saposhnikovia Root); guides the action with Fu Zi (Aconite Root); and uses Mai Dong (Ophiopogon Tuber) to generate the mother of Kidney Water (Lung Metal). Naturally, strong Metal generates Water. When Water is sufficient, the path of He Che is not dry. When not dry, it moistens the bones, preventing severe pain. Since there is no pain, why would the back not straighten? However, this formula does not work overnight; it requires frequent and long-term administration, hence its inclusion in long-term management.
Soreness and pain in both legs are treated differently. Here, dampness has entered the bones, while the skin surface remains free of dampness. This disease involves dampness within the bones, possibly contracted from bedding. The prescription uses Yi Yi Ren (Coix Seed) 2 liang, Qian Shi (Euryale Seed) 1 liang, Fu Ling (Poria) 3 qian, Rou Gui (Cinnamon Bark) 1 qian, Niu Xi (Achyranthes Root) 2 qian, and Bi Xie (Dioscorea Hypoglauca Rhizome) 1 qian, decocted in water and taken orally. (Annotation: Zhuang Gu Qu Shi Dan - Pill to Strengthen Bones and Remove Dampness.) The brilliance of this formula lies in Yi Yi Ren (Coix Seed) entering the bones to remove water, combined with Qian Shi (Euryale Seed) to strengthen the Spleen and resolve dampness, preventing dampness from exacerbating dampness. Niu Xi (Achyranthes Root) and Bi Xie (Dioscorea Hypoglauca Rhizome) are particularly beneficial for the feet. Added Rou Gui (Cinnamon Bark) guides the medicine directly into the bones. How could dampness not be removed and soreness not cease? However, diseases of the feet, being in the lower part of the body, are difficult to eradicate once established. Dampness in the bones is like a pond formed in a low-lying area over time; it cannot be dried up quickly by pumping. Substantial medicinal effort is required to drain it completely. Therefore, this formula must be taken frequently and for a long time, which is precisely the intent.
Caruncle overgrowing the pupil (Rou Pan Ping) arises from neglected eye diseases leading to tissue overgrowth. People fail to observe precautions, flipping their eyelids to seek coolness, unaware that wind pathogens suddenly invade, causing eyelashes to grow inward and forming the caruncle. This condition strictly contraindicates surgery; once cut, internal treatment becomes ineffective. The method should use pills or powders to dissolve it. However, half a year of administration is required before effects appear. The prescription uses Gan Ju Hua (Chrysanthemum Flower) 10 liang (preferably home-grown, otherwise unusable), Bai Shao (White Peony Root) 1 jin, Dang Gui (Angelica Sinensis Root) 0.5 jin, Chai Hu (Bupleurum Root) 4 liang, Dan Pi (Moutan Cortex) 3 liang, Wei Yu (Polygonatum Rhizome) 1 jin, Tong Zhou Ji Li (Tribulus Fruit) 1 jin, Cao Jue Ming (Cassiae Semen) 4 liang, Fu Ling (Poria) 10 liang, Mai Dong (Ophiopogon Tuber) 10 liang, Tian Men Dong (Asparagus Tuber) 10 liang, and Gou Qi Zi (Goji Berry) 1 jin. These are ground into fine powder and formed into pills with honey. Take 1 liang daily on an empty stomach. One course will show slight improvement; two courses will result in complete recovery. Sexual intercourse is strictly contraindicated. Those who abstain from desire will recover with one course; otherwise, two or three courses are necessary. This is another method of long-term management, which I have elaborated upon.
The Heavenly Master said: Jing Syndrome (Spasm Syndrome) is caused by the accumulation of cold-damp qi between the feet, resulting in unceasing cold pain in the bones. Patients remain bedridden for years, exhibiting a hunched posture. What is the reason? All Jing syndromes are caused by damp-water. When water qi persists for a long time, it fills all joints throughout the body, weakening the Earth element (Spleen/Stomach function). How can the water and dampness be differentiated and drained? If one only treats the water, the dampness can be eliminated. However, if treating water for years yields no results, it is because one treats water without treating Earth. The prescription uses Bai Zhu (Atractylodes Macrocephala Rhizome) 5 qian, Yi Yi Ren (Coix Seed) 2 liang, Qian Shi (Euryale Seed) 3 qian, Fu Ling (Poria) 1 liang, Rou Gui (Cinnamon Bark) 1 qian, Niu Xi (Achyranthes Root) 1 qian, Bi Xie (Dioscorea Hypoglauca Rhizome) 1 liang, and Du Zhong (Eucommia Bark) 3 qian, decocted in water and taken orally. The brilliance of this formula lies in promoting the drainage of water-damp qi without consuming true Yin. Taken daily without changing the formula, after three months, the patient will surely return to normal; after another three months, walking will be as usual. This is truly a method of long-term management, which people should adhere to without alteration.
Master Hua said: I agree.
Lei Gong said: Prescription for Jing Syndrome: Bai Zhu (Atractylodes Macrocephala Rhizome) 4 liang, Yi Yi Ren (Coix Seed) 8 liang, Shan Yao (Dioscorea Rhizome) 8 liang, Che Qian Zi (Plantago Seed) 1 liang, Niu Xi (Achyranthes Root) 3 liang, Sheng Huang Qi (Raw Astragalus Root) 10 liang, Rou Gui (Cinnamon Bark) 1 liang, and Du Zhong (Eucommia Bark) 4 liang. Each is ground into powder and formed into pills with honey. Take 1 liang before meals, washed down with wine. One course guarantees complete recovery, utilizing tonification within the context of draining.
Another prescription for Wei Syndrome: Xuan Shen (Scrophularia Root) 1 liang, Gan Ju Hua (Chrysanthemum Flower) 5 qian, Mai Dong (Ophiopogon Tuber) 1 liang, Shu Di Huang (Prepared Rehmannia Root) 2 liang, Niu Xi (Achyranthes Root) 5 qian, and Tian Men Dong (Asparagus Tuber) 3 qian, decocted in water and taken orally.
This prescription shares the same principle as the Heavenly Master's. (Excellent)
