阴发病，为偏枯痿易，四肢不举。（三阳，太阳也。三阴，太阴也，手太阴肺脉也，足太阴脾脉也。
太阴发偏枯等病也。）鼓一阳曰钩曰鼓，（一阳，少阳也。少阳脉至手太阴寸口，其脉鼓也。鼓，脉
鼓动也。一阳之鼓曰钩也。平按∶《素问》钩下无曰字。）一阴曰毛，（一阴，厥阴也。厥阴脉至

凡痹之客五脏者，肺痹者，烦则满喘而欧。（邪气客肺及手太阴，故烦满喘欧也。平按∶《素问》
烦下无则字，欧作呕。）心痹者不通，烦则下鼓，暴上气而喘，嗌干喜噫，厥气上则恐。（邪气客
心及手太阳，故上下不通，烦则少腹故胀等病也。平按；《素问》不通上有脉字，则上有心字，喜
作善。注少腹故胀，故恐系鼓字之误。）肝痹者，夜卧则惊，多饮数小便，上为演坏。（邪气客肝
及足厥阴脉，厥阴脉系目及阴，故卧惊数小便。演当涎，谓涎流坏中心也。平按∶演坏《素问》作

平按∶《素问》懈惰作解堕，欧作呕，寒作塞。）大肠痹者，数饮出而不得，中气喘争，时发飧泄。
（邪客大肠及手阳明脉，大肠中热，大便难，肺气喘争，时有飧泄也。平按∶《素问》肠上无大字，
出而作而出。注争字原抄作年，谨根据经文作争。）胞痹者，少腹膀胱按之两髀若沃以汤，涩于小便，
上为清涕。（膀胱盛尿，故谓之胞，即尿脬。脬，匹苞反。邪客膀胱及足太阳，膀胱中热，故按之

据此，则全元起本与此相合。若沃以汤，汤字原抄作阳，恐传写之误，谨根据《素问》作汤，别本亦
作汤。）阴气者，静则神藏，躁则消亡。（五脏之气，为阴气也，六腑之气，为阳气也。人能不劳五
脏之气，则五神各守其脏，故曰神藏也。贼郎反。若怵惕思虑，悲哀动中，喜乐无极，愁忧不解，盛
怒不
止，恐惧不息，躁动不已，则五神消灭，伤脏者也。）饮食自倍，肠胃乃伤。（凡人饮食，胃实则
肠虚，肠实则胃虚，肠胃更实更虚，故得气通，长生久视。若饮食自倍，则气不通，夭人寿命也，
此则伤腑也。）淫气喘息，痹聚在肺；（淫，过也。喘息，肺所为也。喘息过者，则肺虚邪客，故痹
聚也。）淫气忧思，痹聚在心；（忧思，心所为。忧思过者，则心伤邪客，故痹聚也。）淫气欧唾，
痹聚在肾；（欧唾，肾所为也。欧唾过者，则肾虚邪客，故痹聚也。平按∶欧唾《素问》作遗溺。）
淫气渴乏，痹聚在肝；（肝以主血，今有渴乏，多伤血肝虚，故痹聚也。平按∶渴乏《素问》作乏竭。）
淫气饥绝，痹聚在胃；（饥者，胃少谷也。饥过绝食则胃虚，故痹聚。）淫气雍塞，痹聚在脾。（谷
气过塞，则实而痹聚于脾也。平按∶饥绝《素问》作肌绝，下无痹聚在胃、淫气雍塞二句。新校正云∶
详从上凡痹客五脏者至此，全元起本在《阴阳别论》中，此王氏所移。据此，则全元起本与《太素》
同也。）
阴争于内，阳扰于外，魄汗未藏，四逆而起，起则动肺，使人喘喝。（五脏为阴，内邪阴气，
以伤五脏，故曰争内；六腑为阳，外邪阳气，以侵六腑，故曰扰外。皮毛腠理也，肺魄所主，故汗
出腠理，名魄汗也。藏，犹闭也。阴阳争扰，汗出腠理未闭，寒气因入，四肢逆冷，内伤于肺，故
使喘喝。喝，喘声，呼割反。平按∶《素问》动作熏，喝作鸣。）阴之所生，和本曰味。（五脏所生
和气之本，曰五味也。平按∶《素问》味作和。）是故刚与刚，阳气破散，阴气乃消亡，（刚与刚，
阳盛也。阳盛必衰，故破散也。无阳之阴，必消亡也。）淖则刚柔不和，经气乃绝。（淖，乱也，音
浊。言阳散阴消，故刚柔不和，则十二经气绝也。平按∶《素问》此段下有“死阴之属，不过三日而
死，生阳之属，不过四日而死”数句，本书在后。）岐伯曰∶所谓生阳死阴者，肝之心谓之生
阳，（木生火也。）心之肺谓之死阴，（火克金也。）肺之肾谓之重阴，（少阴重至阴也。）肾之
脾谓之辟阴，死不治。（辟，重叠。至阴太阴重也。）结阳者，肿四肢。（结，聚。）结阴者，便血
一升，再结二升，三结三升。（血聚多至三升也。）阴阳结者针，多阴少阳曰石水，少腹肿。（少阴

二字，原抄缺左方，只余右方复重二字，谨根据《素问》作腹肿。）三阳结谓之消，（消渴消中也。
三阳，太阳。平按∶《素问》三阳作二阳。注消渴，渴字袁刻误作浊。）二阳结谓之隔，（便溲不通
也。二阳，阳明也。平按∶《素问》二作三。）三阴结谓之水，（三阴，太阴。）一阴一阳结谓之
喉痹，（厥阴、少阳也。）阴搏阳别谓之有子，（阴脉聚，阳脉不聚也。）阴阳虚肠辟。（阴阳腑

四日而已。（阴阳死生期也。平按∶《素问》此数语在经气乃绝之下。四日而已《素问》作四日而死，
新校正云∶按别本作四日而生，全元起注本作四日而已，俱通。详上下文义，作死者非。据此，则全
元起注本与此正合，袁刻误作四日而死。）阳加于阴谓之汗，（加，胜之也。）阴虚阳搏谓之崩。
（崩，下血也。）三阴俱搏，三十日夜半死。（太阴总得三阴之气。平按∶《素问》三十作二十。）
二阴俱搏，十五日夕死。（少阴总得二阴之气。平按∶《素问》十五作十三，夕下有时字，别本亦
有时字。）一阴俱搏，十日平旦死。（厥阴气皆来聚，故曰俱也。平按∶顾本《素问》无平旦二字，
赵府本有。）三阳俱搏且鼓，三日死。（三阳之脉，聚而且鼓。）三阳三阴
俱搏，心腹满，发尽不得隐曲，五日死。二阳俱搏，募病温，死不治，不过十日死。（阳明之气皆
聚，则阳明募病。有本为幕也。平按∶《素问》募作其。）
少阳经发病会出现少气等病症。隔，就是阻隔、闭塞的意思。（按：《素问》中“喜”写作“善”，“螈”写作“掣”。少气原文抄本误作“小气”，细读注文应改为“少”，《素问》也作“少”。另外注文中“少阳”的“少”字原抄本也误作“小”，恐怕是抄写错误，谨此更正。）
二阳（阳明）与一阴（厥阴）同时发病，会产生惊骇、背痛，喜欢叹气或呵欠，这种病名叫风厥。（二阳指阳明经，一阴指厥阴经，包括手厥阴心包经和足厥阴肝经。这两条经脉发病会导致惊骇等症状，属于风厥。按：《素问》中“生”写作“主”。）
二阴（少阴）与一阳（少阳）同时发病，喜欢腹胀、心中痞满且喜欢叹息（二阴指少阴经，包括手少阴心经和足少阴肾经。少阴与少阳经发病会导致腹胀等症状。按：注文中“肾脉”下袁刻本多出了“一阳少阳也”五个字）。
三阳（太阳）与三阴（太阴）同时发病，会导致偏枯（半身不遂）、痿证及肢体功能改变，四肢无法抬举。（三阳指太阳经，三阴指太阴经，包括手太阴肺经和足太阴脾经。太阴经发病会导致偏枯等症状。）
脉象鼓动有力称为钩脉或鼓脉（一阳指少阳经。少阳经的脉气到达手太阴肺经的寸口部位，其脉象表现为鼓动。鼓，即脉搏鼓动之意。少阳之气的鼓动表现为钩脉。按：《素问》中“钩”字后无“曰”字）。
厥阴经的脉象称为毛脉（一阴指厥阴经。厥阴经的脉气到达寸口时表现为毛脉，这是因为阴脉不表现为鼓动。另有版本说：“一说阴脉称为毛脉”）。
脉象鼓动而阳气胜于隐伏状态称为弦脉（脉象鼓动，阳气胜过隐伏状态即为弦脉。按：《素问》中“隐”写作“急”。另一版本在“隐”字前有“阴”字）。
脉象鼓动而至绝断称为石脉（至者为阳，脉象鼓动至极点而绝断即为石脉）。
阴阳脉气相交击称为弹脉（阴阳脉气到达寸口相互撞击即为弹脉。按：《素问》中“弹”写作“溜”）。
凡是痹邪侵入五脏的情况：
肺痹的症状是，烦闷则胸满、气喘且呕吐。（邪气客居肺及手太阴肺经，所以出现烦闷、胸满、气喘、呕吐。按：《素问》中“烦”字下无“则”字，“欧”写作“呕”。）
心痹的症状是，上下不通畅，烦闷则少腹鼓胀，突然上逆气喘，咽喉干燥且喜欢叹气，逆气上冲则会恐惧。（邪气客居心及手太阳小肠经，所以上下不通畅，烦闷时少腹会鼓胀等。按：《素问》中“不通”上有“脉”字，“则”上有“心”字，“喜”写作“善”。注文中“少腹故胀”的“故”字恐怕是“鼓”字的误写。）
肝痹的症状是，夜间睡眠则易受惊，喝水多且小便频数，向上发展为流涎浸渍心胸。（邪气客居肝及足厥阴肝经，厥阴经联系目部和阴器，所以睡眠易惊、小便频数。“演”通“涎”，指涎水流溢浸渍心胸。按：《素问》中“演坏”写作“引如怀”三个字。）
肾痹的症状是，容易腹胀，臀部着地脚跟提起行走困难，脊柱弯曲头项低垂。（邪气客居肾及足少阴肾经，所以喜欢腹胀、脊柱弯曲。按：《素问》中“善”写作“喜”，两个“伐”字均写作“代”，“项”写作“头”。腹胀下袁刻本有“足挛”二字，原抄本没有。）
脾痹的症状是，四肢懈怠无力，发作咳嗽并吐出清水，上部感到寒冷。（邪气客居脾及足太阴脾经，不能滋养四肢，所以导致懈怠无力，又引发脾咳，胃寒导致吐出冷水。按：《素问》中“懈惰”写作“解堕”，“欧”写作“呕”，“寒”写作“塞”。）
大肠痹的症状是，多次饮水但大便排不出，肠中气机紊乱作响，时常发生完谷不化的泄泻。（邪气客居大肠及手阳明大肠经，大肠中有热，大便困难，肺气喘息相争，时常发生完谷不化的泄泻。按：《素问》中“肠”字前无“大”字，“出而”写作“而出”。注文中“争”字原抄本写作“年”，谨根据经文改为“争”。）
胞痹的症状是，按压少腹膀胱部位，两侧大腿根部感觉像热水浇灌一样烫，小便涩滞不畅，上部流出清涕。（膀胱储存尿液，所以称为胞，即尿脬。脬，音匹苞反。邪气客居膀胱及足太阳膀胱经，膀胱中有热，所以按压大腿根部感觉发热，下部小便涩滞，上部鼻子流出清涕。按：少腹原抄本写作“少肠”，《素问》写作“少腹”，袁刻本写作“小肠”，与原抄本、《素问》都不同，谨根据《素问》改为“少腹”。两髀，《素问》写作“内痛”，新校正说：全元起本作“两髀”。据此，全元起本与此书相符。若沃以汤，汤字原抄本写作“阳”，恐怕是传写错误，谨根据《素问》改为“汤”，其他版本也作“汤”。）
阴气的作用，安静时神志内守，躁动时神气消亡。（五脏之气属于阴气，六腑之气属于阳气。人如果不劳损五脏之气，那么五神各自守护其脏，所以叫神藏。贼郎反。如果惊恐思虑，悲哀触动内心，喜乐无节制，愁忧不解，盛怒不止，恐惧不休，躁动不停，那么五神就会消灭，损伤脏腑。）
饮食过量一倍，肠胃就会受伤。（凡人饮食，胃实的时候肠虚，肠实的时候胃虚，肠胃虚实交替，所以气机通畅，能够长寿。如果饮食过量一倍，那么气机就不通畅，折损人的寿命，这就是损伤了腑。）
淫邪之气导致喘息，痹邪聚集在肺；（淫，过也。喘息是肺的功能。喘息过度，说明肺虚邪气客居，所以痹邪聚集。）
淫邪之气导致忧思，痹邪聚集在心；（忧思是心的功能。忧思过度，说明心伤邪气客居，所以痹邪聚集。）
淫邪之气导致呕吐唾沫，痹邪聚集在肾；（呕吐唾沫是肾的功能。呕吐唾沫过度，说明肾虚邪气客居，所以痹邪聚集。按：《素问》中“欧唾”写作“遗溺”。）
淫邪之气导致口渴乏力，痹邪聚集在肝；（肝主血，现在有口渴乏力，多因伤血导致肝虚，所以痹邪聚集。按：《素问》中“渴乏”写作“乏竭”。）
淫邪之气导致饥饿感断绝，痹邪聚集在胃；（饥饿是因为胃中缺少谷物。饥饿过度绝食则胃虚，所以痹邪聚集。）
淫邪之气导致壅塞，痹邪聚集在脾。（谷气过度壅塞，则实证而痹邪聚集于脾。按：《素问》中“饥绝”写作“肌绝”，下面没有“痹聚在胃”、“淫气雍塞”两句。新校正说：详细考察从上面“凡痹客五脏者”到这里，全元起本在《阴阳别论》中，这是王冰移入此处的。据此，全元起本与《太素》相同。）
阴气在内争斗，阳气在外扰乱，魄汗不能固藏，四肢逆冷而起，四肢逆冷起来会扰动肺，使人喘息有声。（五脏属阴，内邪阴气伤害五脏，所以叫争于内；六腑属阳，外邪阳气侵犯六腑，所以叫扰于外。皮毛腠理由肺魄所主，所以汗出腠理称为魄汗。藏，同闭。阴阳争扰，汗出腠理未闭合，寒气随之进入，四肢逆冷，内伤于肺，所以使人喘息有声。喝，是喘息的声音，呼割反。按：《素问》中“动”写作“熏”，“喝”写作“鸣”。）
阴气所生成的，以调和为根本的是五味。（五脏所生的和气之本，叫做五味。按：《素问》中“味”写作“和”。）
因此，刚与刚相加，阳气破散，阴气就会消亡，（刚与刚相加，指阳气过盛。阳气过盛必然衰败，所以破散。没有阳气的阴，必然消亡。）
柔润则刚柔不和，经气就会断绝。（淖，意为乱，音浊。意思是阳气消散阴气消亡，所以刚柔不和，十二经气就会断绝。按：《素问》这段文字下有“死阴之属，不过三日而死，生阳之属，不过四日而死”几句，本书在后面。）
岐伯说：所谓生阳和死阴，是指：
肝传变到心叫做生阳，（木生火。）
心传变到肺叫做死阴，（火克金。）
肺传变到肾叫做重阴，（少阴重叠至阴。）
肾传变到脾叫做辟阴，（死症不可治。）（辟，重叠。至阴太阴重叠。）
阳气结聚在阳经，会导致四肢肿胀。（结，聚积。）
阴气结聚在阴经，会导致便血，第一次结聚便血一升，第二次结聚便血二升，第三次结聚便血三升。（血液积聚多达到三升。）
阴阳之气结聚在少阴经，称为石水，少腹部肿胀。（少阴主水，所以“多”字可能是误字。按：《素问》中“结”字下无“者”字，“针”写作“斜”。石原抄本写作“右”，恐怕有误，《素问》写作“石”。腹肿二字，原抄本缺左方，只剩右方重复二字，谨根据《素问》改为“腹肿”。）
三阳经气结聚称为消渴病，（消渴消中病。三阳指太阳经。按：《素问》中“三阳”写作“二阳”。注文中“消渴”的“渴”字袁刻本误作“浊”。）
二阳经气结聚称为膈证，（大小便不通。二阳指阳明经。按：《素问》中“二”写作“三”。）
三阴经气结聚称为水肿病，（三阴指太阴经。）
一阴一阳经气结聚称为喉痹，（一阴指厥阴经，一阳指少阳经。）
阴脉搏动有力而与阳脉有别，称为怀孕，（阴脉聚拢，阳脉不聚拢。）
阴阳脉皆虚弱会导致肠辟。（阴阳脏腑脉都虚弱的，会导致肠辟叠死。按：《素问》中“辟”字下有“死”字。）
属于死阴类的病，不超过三天就会死亡；属于生阳类的病，不超过四天而已。（阴阳死生的期限。按：《素问》这几句话在“经气乃绝”之下。“四日而已”，《素问》写作“四日而死”，新校正说：按别本作“四日而生”，全元起注本作“四日而已”，都通。详细看上下文义，作“死”字是不对的。据此，全元起注本与此书正合，袁刻本误作“四日而死”。）
阳气加临于阴气称为汗，（加，胜过之意。）
阴虚而阳脉搏击称为崩漏。（崩，指出血。）
三阴经脉俱搏动，三十天半夜死亡。（太阴总括了三阴之气。按：《素问》中“三十”写作“二十”。）
二阴经脉俱搏动，十五天傍晚死亡。（少阴总括了二阴之气。按：《素问》中“十五”写作“十三”，“夕”下有“时”字，其他版本也有“时”字。）
一阴经脉俱搏动，十天天亮时死亡。（厥阴之气都来聚拢，所以叫俱。按：顾校本《素问》无“平旦”二字，赵府本有。）
三阳经脉俱搏动而且鼓动，三天死亡。（三阳经脉，聚拢而且鼓动。）
三阳三阴经脉俱搏动，心腹满胀，所有动作都不能隐蔽曲折，五天死亡。
二阳经脉俱搏动，募穴患病温病，死症不可治，不超过十天死亡。（阳明之气都聚拢，则阳明募穴患病。有版本认为是“幕”。按：《素问》中“募”写作“其”。）
When the Shaoyang (Lesser Yang) channel is affected, diseases such as *Shaoqi* (deficiency of vital energy) occur. "Ge" (obstruction) refers to blockage and stagnation. (Note: In *Suwen*, "xi" is written as "shan", and "yuan" as "che". The original manuscript writes "Shaoqi" as "Xiaoqi"; careful reading of the annotation suggests it should be corrected to "Shao", which matches *Suwen*. Also, the character "Shao" in "Shaoyang" in the annotation was originally written as "Xiao" in the manuscript, likely a copying error, which has been corrected here.)
When Er Yang (Yangming) and Yi Yin (Jueyin) are simultaneously affected, symptoms include fright, back pain, frequent sighing, and yawning; this disease is named *Fengjue* (Wind Jue). (Er Yang refers to the Yangming channel; Yi Yin refers to the Jueyin channel, including the Hand Jueyin Pericardium channel and Foot Jueyin Liver channel. Diseases arising from these two channels include fright and other symptoms, classified as Fengjue. Note: In *Suwen*, "sheng" is written as "zhu".)
When Er Yin (Shaoyin) and Yi Yang (Shaoyang) are simultaneously affected, there is a tendency toward abdominal distension, chest fullness, and sighing. (Er Yin refers to the Shaoyin channel, including the Hand Shaoyin Heart channel and Foot Shaoyin Kidney channel. Diseases arising from Shaoyin and Shaoyang include abdominal distension. Note: Yuan's engraved edition adds five characters "Yi Yang Shaoyang ye" after "Kidney channel" in the annotation.)
When San Yang (Taiyang) and San Yin (Taiyin) are simultaneously affected, symptoms include hemiplegia (*Pianku*), flaccidity syndrome (*Wei*), alteration of limb function, and inability to lift the limbs. (San Yang refers to the Taiyang channel; San Yin refers to the Taiyin channel, including the Hand Taiyin Lung channel and Foot Taiyin Spleen channel. Diseases arising from Taiyin include hemiplegia.)
A pulse that beats vigorously is called *Gou* (Hook) or *Gu* (Drum). (Yi Yang refers to Shaoyang. When the Shaoyang pulse reaches the Cun Kou point on the Hand Taiyin Lung channel, its manifestation is vigorous beating. "Gu" means pulsation. The pulsation of Yi Yang manifests as Gou. Note: In *Suwen*, the character "Yue" does not follow "Gou".)
The Jueyin pulse is called *Mao* (Feather). (Yi Yin refers to Jueyin. When the Jueyin pulse reaches Cun Kou, it manifests as Mao; this is because Yin pulses do not manifest as vigorous beating. Another version states: "It is said that Yin pulses are called Mao.")
When the pulse beats vigorously and Yang qi overcomes the hidden state, it is called *Xian* (Bowstring). (The pulse beats vigorously, with Yang qi overcoming the hidden state, resulting in Xian. Note: In *Suwen*, "Yin" is written as "Ji". Another version has the character "Yin" before "Yin".)
When the pulse beats vigorously and reaches extremity/cessation, it is called *Shi* (Stone). (Reaching extremity refers to Yang; when the pulse beats vigorously to the point of cessation, it is Shi.)
When Yin and Yang pulses intersect and strike each other, it is called *Tan* (Pluck/Twitch). (When Yin and Yang pulses reach Cun Kou and strike each other, it is Tan. Note: In *Suwen*, "Tan" is written as "Liu".)
Regarding Bi syndrome invading the Five Zang organs:
In *Fei Bi* (Lung Bi),烦闷 (distress) leads to chest fullness, panting, and vomiting. (Evil qi invades the Lung and Hand Taiyin channel, causing distress, fullness, panting, and vomiting. Note: In *Suwen*, "Ze" does not follow "Fan", and "Ou" is written as "Ou".)
In *Xin Bi* (Heart Bi), there is obstruction and lack of communication. Distress leads to lower abdominal bulging, sudden upward rushing of Qi with panting, dry throat, and frequent sighing. When rebellious Qi rises, fear occurs. (Evil qi invades the Heart and Hand Taiyin Small Intestine channel [Note: Text says Hand Taiyang, but context implies connection], causing obstruction between upper and lower. Distress causes lower abdominal bulging. Note: In *Suwen, "Mai" precedes "Bu Tong", "Xin" precedes "Ze", and "Xi" is written as "Shan". The character "Gu" in the annotation "Shao Fu Gu Zhang" is likely a typo for "Gu".)
In *Gan Bi* (Liver Bi), one startsles during sleep at night, drinks much, urinates frequently, and upward progression leads to salivation dripping onto the heart center. (Evil qi invades the Liver and Foot Jueyin channel. The Jueyin channel connects to the eyes and genitals, hence startling during sleep and frequent urination. "Yan" corresponds to "Xian" (saliva), meaning saliva flows and soaks the heart center. Note: In *Suwen*, "Yan Huai" is written as "Yin Ru Huai" three characters.)
In *Shen Bi* (Kidney Bi), there is frequent distension. One walks with buttocks on the ground and heels lifted, and the spine is curved with the head lowered. (Evil qi invades the Kidney and Foot Shaoyin channel, causing distension and spinal curvature. Note: In *Suwen, "Shan" is written as "Xi", both "Fa" characters are written as "Dai", and "Xiang" is written as "Tou". Yuan's edition adds "Zu Luan" after "Zhang", which is absent in the original manuscript.)
In *Pi Bi* (Spleen Bi), the four limbs are lax and weak, coughing occurs with expulsion of fluid, and coldness prevails in the upper body. (Evil qi invades the Spleen and Foot Taiyin channel, failing to nourish the four limbs, causing laxity. It also triggers Spleen cough and stomach cold leading to expulsion of cold water. Note: In *Suwen, "Xie Duo" is written as "Jie Duo", "Ou" as "Ou", and "Han" as "Sai".)
In *Da Chang Bi* (Large Intestine Bi), there is frequent drinking but inability to defecate, rumbling of Qi in the middle jiao, and occasional diarrhea with undigested food. (Evil qi invades the Large Intestine and Hand Yangming channel. Heat in the Large Intestine causes difficult defecation, lung Qi struggles, and occasional diarrhea with undigested food occurs. Note: In *Suwen, "Da" does not precede "Chang", and "Chu Er" is written as "Er Chu". The character "Zheng" in the annotation was originally written as "Nian" in the manuscript, corrected here to "Zheng" based on the classic text.)
In *Bao Bi* (Bladder/Uterus Bi), pressing the lower abdomen and bladder area makes the inner thighs feel hot like boiling water. Urination is difficult and scanty, and clear nasal discharge occurs above. (The bladder stores urine, hence called Bao or Pao. Evil qi invades the Bladder and Foot Taiyang channel. Heat in the bladder causes heat in the thighs upon pressing, difficulty in urination below, and clear nasal discharge above. Note: Original manuscript writes "Shao Chang", *Suwen* writes "Shao Fu", Yuan's edition writes "Xiao Chang". Corrected to "Shao Fu" per *Suwen*. *Suwen* writes "Nei Tong" for "Liang Bi"; Xin Zheng Jiao notes Quanyuanqi's version uses "Liang Bi", aligning with this text. "Tang" in "Ruo Wo Yi Tang" was originally written as "Yang" in the manuscript, likely a copyist error, corrected to "Tang" per *Suwen* and other versions.)
Yin Qi: When quiet, the Spirit is stored; when agitated, it dissipates. (Qi of the Five Zang is Yin Qi; Qi of the Six Fu is Yang Qi. If one does not labor the Qi of the Five Zang, the Five Spirits remain in their respective organs, hence "Spirit Stored". If one experiences fear, excessive thought, sorrow moving the interior, unbounded joy, unresolved grief, unceasing anger, incessant fear, or constant agitation, the Five Spirits will perish, damaging the Zang organs.)
If food and drink intake doubles, the Stomach and Intestines are injured. (Normally, when the Stomach is full, the Intestines are empty, and vice versa; this alternation allows Qi to flow freely, promoting longevity. If food and drink double, Qi becomes obstructed, shortening lifespan, thus injuring the Fu organs.)
Excessive Qi causing panting indicates Bi accumulation in the Lung; (Excessive means overabundance. Panting is a Lung function. Excessive panting indicates Lung deficiency and evil invasion, leading to Bi accumulation.)
Excessive Qi causing worry and thought indicates Bi accumulation in the Heart; (Worry and thought are Heart functions. Excessive worry/thought damages the Heart and invites evil, leading to Bi accumulation.)
Excessive Qi causing vomiting of saliva indicates Bi accumulation in the Kidney; (Vomiting saliva is a Kidney function. Excessive vomiting of saliva indicates Kidney deficiency and evil invasion, leading to Bi accumulation. Note: In *Suwen*, "Ou Tuo" is written as "Yi Ni".)
Excessive Qi causing thirst and fatigue indicates Bi accumulation in the Liver; (The Liver governs Blood. Thirst and fatigue often damage Blood, leading to Liver deficiency and Bi accumulation. Note: In *Suwen*, "Ke Fa" is written as "Fa Jie".)
Excessive Qi causing hunger and starvation indicates Bi accumulation in the Stomach; (Hunger results from lack of grain in the Stomach. Excessive hunger and fasting lead to Stomach deficiency, causing Bi accumulation.)
Excessive Qi causing congestion and blockage indicates Bi accumulation in the Spleen. (Overabundance of Grain Qi causes congestion, leading to excess and Bi accumulation in the Spleen. Note: In *Suwen*, "Ji Jue" is written as "Ji Jue", and the sentences "Bi Ju Zai Wei" and "Yin Qi Yong Sai" are missing. Xin Zheng Jiao notes that Quanyuanqi's version places this section in *Yin Yang Bie Lun*, moved here by Wang Bing. Thus, Quanyuanqi's version aligns with *Taisu*.)
Yin contends within, Yang disturbs without. Soul sweat (*Po Han*) is not contained, and cold limbs arise. Arising cold limbs disturb the Lung, causing panting and gasping. (Five Zang are Yin; internal Yin evil injures them, hence "contending within". Six Fu are Yang; external Yang evil invades them, hence "disturbing without". Skin pores and interstices are governed by Lung Po, so sweat emerging from pores is called Po Han. "Cang" means close. Yin-Yang contention and disturbance cause sweat to emerge and pores to remain open; cold Qi enters, chilling the limbs and injuring the Lung internally, causing panting. "He" is the sound of panting. Note: In *Suwen*, "Dong" is written as "Xun", and "He" as "Ming".)
What generates Yin, harmony is found in the Flavors. (The root of harmonious Qi generated by the Five Zang is the Five Flavors. Note: In *Suwen*, "Wei" is written as "He".)
Therefore, if Hardness meets Hardness, Yang Qi breaks and scatters, and Yin Qi perishes. (Hardness meeting Hardness indicates Yang excess. Yang excess inevitably declines, hence breaking and scattering. Yin without Yang must perish.)
If Softness dominates, Hard and Soft are discordant, and Channel Qi ceases. (Nao means disorder, pronounced Zhuo. When Yang scatters and Yin perishes, Hard and Soft become discordant, and the Qi of the Twelve Channels ceases. Note: *Suwen* adds several sentences here about death timelines for Yin/Yang categories, which appear later in this book.)
Qibo said: Regarding Sheng Yang (Life Yang) and Si Yin (Death Yin):
Transmission from Liver to Heart is called Sheng Yang, (Wood generates Fire.)
Transmission from Heart to Lung is called Si Yin, (Fire controls Metal.)
Transmission from Lung to Kidney is called Chong Yin (Double Yin), (Shaoyin overlaps with Zhi Yin.)
Transmission from Kidney to Spleen is called Pi Yin (Reversed/Overlapping Yin), (a fatal condition untreatable.) (Pi means overlapping. Zhi Yin Taiyin overlaps.)
Yang Qi knotting leads to swelling of the four limbs. (Knotting means gathering.)
Yin Qi knotting leads to blood in stool. First knotting: one sheng of blood; second knotting: two sheng; third knotting: three sheng. (Blood accumulation up to three sheng.)
Yin-Yang knotting in Shaoyin is called Shi Shui (Stone Water), with swelling of the lower abdomen. (Shaoyin governs Water, so "Duo" may be an error. Note: In *Suwen*, "Zhe" does not follow "Jie", "Zhen" is written as "Xie". Shi was originally written as "You" in the manuscript, likely an error, corrected to "Shi" per *Suwen*. "Fu Zhong" was partially missing in the manuscript, corrected per *Suwen*.)
San Yang knotting is called Xiao (Consumption/Diabetes), (Xiao Ke Xiao Zhong disease. San Yang refers to Taiyang. Note: In *Suwen*, "San Yang" is written as "Er Yang". The character "Ke" in the annotation "Xiao Ke" was mistakenly printed as "Zhuo" in Yuan's edition.)
Er Yang knotting is called Ge (Obstruction/Regurgitation), (Difficulty in defecation and urination. Er Yang refers to Yangming. Note: In *Suwen*, "Er" is written as "San".)
San Yin knotting is called Shui (Edema/Water retention), (San Yin refers to Taiyin.)
Yi Yin and Yi Yang knotting is called Hou Bi (Throat Bi), (Yi Yin refers to Jueyin, Yi Yang refers to Shaoyang.)
Yin pulse beating strongly with distinction from Yang pulse indicates pregnancy. (Yin pulse gathers, Yang pulse does not gather.)
Deficiency of both Yin and Yang pulses leads to Chang Bi (Intestinal Dysentery). (When Yin and Yang Zang-Fu pulses are both deficient, Chang Bi with severe mortality occurs. Note: In *Suwen*, "Si" follows "Pi".)
Those belonging to Si Yin (Death Yin) die within three days; those belonging to Sheng Yang (Life Yang) die within four days. (Timelines for Yin-Yang death/life. Note: These sentences appear after "Jing Qi Nai Jue" in *Suwen*. "Si Ri Er Yi" in *Suwen* is written as "Si Ri Er Si". Xin Zheng Jiao notes alternative versions say "Si Ri Er Sheng" or "Si Ri Er Yi", all acceptable. Contextually, "Si" is incorrect. Thus, Quanyuanqi's version aligns with this text, while Yuan's edition erroneously uses "Si".)
Yang added to Yin is called Sweat. (Jia means overcoming/superiority.)
Yin deficiency with Yang pounding is called Beng (Flooding/Metrorrhagia). (Beng refers to bleeding.)
If all Three Yin pulses beat strongly, death occurs at midnight on the 30th day. (Taiyin encompasses the Qi of all Three Yins. Note: In *Suwen*, "San Shi" is written as "Er Shi".)
If all Two Yin pulses beat strongly, death occurs at dusk on the 15th day. (Shaoyin encompasses the Qi of all Two Yins. Note: In *Suwen*, "Shi Wu" is written as "Shi San", and "Xi" is followed by "Shi" in other versions.)
If all One Yin pulse beats strongly, death occurs at dawn on the 10th day. (Jueyin Qi gathers completely, hence "Ju". Note: Gu's edition of *Suwen* lacks "Ping Dan", Zhao's edition includes it.)
If all Three Yang pulses beat strongly and drum-like, death occurs in three days. (Three Yang pulses gather and beat vigorously.)
If all Three Yang and Three Yin pulses beat strongly, with abdominal fullness, inability to perform any concealed movements, death occurs in five days.
If all Two Yang pulses beat strongly, Mubing (Acupoint Disease) presents as Warm Pathogen, a fatal untreatable condition, with death within ten days. (Yangming Qi gathers completely, causing Yangming Mubing. Some versions read "Mu" as "Mu". Note: In *Suwen*, "Mu" is written as "Qi".)
