一妇年三十四岁，夜梦与鬼神交，惊怕异常，及见神堂阴府，舟楫桥梁，如此一十
五年，竟无娠孕。巫祈觋祷，无所不至，钻肌灸肉，孔穴万千。黄瘦发热引饮，中满足肿，委
命于天。一日，苦请戴人。戴人曰∶阳火盛于上，阴火盛于下。鬼神者，阴之灵；神堂者，阴
之所；舟楫桥梁，水之用。两手寸脉皆沉而伏，知胸中有痰实也。凡三涌三泄三汗，不旬
日而无梦，一月而有孕。戴人曰∶余治妇人使有娠，此法不诬。
一女子年十五，两股间湿癣，长三、四寸，下至膝。发痒，时爬搔，汤火俱不解；痒

恐为癣药所误。湿淫于血，不可不砭者矣。

一位三十四岁的妇女，夜间梦见与鬼神交合，惊恐害怕异常，甚至见到神堂阴府、舟船桥梁等景象，这种情况持续了十五年，始终未能怀孕。求巫问卜、祈祷祭祀无所不用其极，钻肌灸肉，针刺穴位成千上万。她面色萎黄消瘦，发热且口渴引饮，腹部充满肿胀，只能听天由命。一天，她苦苦请求戴人（张从正）诊治。戴人说：“阳火盛于上焦，阴火盛于下焦。鬼神是阴气的灵体；神堂是阴气聚集之所；舟楫桥梁，都是水的功用。两手寸脉都沉伏有力，可知胸中有痰实阻滞。经过三次涌吐、三次泻下、三次发汗治疗，不到十天就没有了怪梦，一个月后就怀孕了。”戴人说：“我治疗妇人使其受孕，这种方法并非虚妄。”
另一位十五岁的女子，两腿之间患有湿癣，长度三四寸，向下延伸至膝盖。发作时瘙痒难忍，时常抓挠，用汤洗或火烧都无法缓解；痒止之后，流出黄赤色的水液，疼痛难以忍受。使用艾灸、熏蒸、浸洗等方法，以及硫黄、茹草、白僵蚕、羊蹄根等药物，均无效。该女子天性爱美精巧，因为此病无法出嫁。她的父母向戴人求医。戴人说：“若能听从我的话，病即可痊愈。”父母答应了。戴人将针磨得尖快，在患者感到瘙痒时，在癣疾部位各刺一百多针，直到血液流尽，再用煎过的盐汤清洗，如此进行四次，大病才消除。这个方子不记录下来，是为了告诉后人，恐怕会被其他治癣的药物所误导。湿气淫溢于血分，不可不使用砭石放血疗法啊。
又有一位蔡寨成家的一岁男童，患病满腹胸部生有湿癣，每次抓挠就有黄水流出，已经一年了。戴人先用苦味药末制成丸药催吐；吐完后，接着服用舟车丸、浚川散，泻下三四次到五六次；随后服用凉膈散加朴硝，煎成后时时少量啜饮，没过几天就痊愈了。
颖州的韩吉卿，从大腿到脚部生出湿疮，大的如铜钱，小的如豆粒，瘙痒时抓破，水流出来则湿气蔓延，感觉像虫子在裤袜里爬行一样：这是湿疮。由于水湿之邪所致，所以多在足部发生。使用舟车丸、浚川散进行大幅度的泻下十余次，病去得干干净净。他向来不相信戴人的医术，到了这时非常佩服。
A thirty-four-year-old woman dreamed of copulating with spirits and ghosts at night, experiencing extreme fear and panic. She even saw divine halls, underworld courts, boats, and bridges. This condition persisted for fifteen years, during which she remained barren. She resorted to all manner of shamanistic prayers and exorcisms, drilling into her flesh and moxibustion on her muscles, with thousands of acupuncture points treated. Her complexion was sallow and emaciated, accompanied by fever and excessive thirst. Her abdomen was distended and swollen, and she resigned herself to fate. One day, she earnestly requested Dai Ren (Zhang Congzheng) to treat her. Dai Ren said: "Yang fire is excessive in the upper jiao, and yin fire is excessive in the lower jiao. Spirits and ghosts are the spiritual manifestations of yin; divine halls are places where yin gathers; boats and bridges are functions of water. The cun positions of both wrists are deep and concealed, indicating phlegm excess in the chest. After three courses of emesis, purgation, and diaphoresis, the dreams ceased within ten days, and she conceived within one month." Dai Ren stated: "My method for treating women to achieve pregnancy is not false."
A fifteen-year-old girl suffered from tinea humida (wet eczema) between her thighs, extending three to four inches long down to her knees. It was intensely pruritic, causing frequent scratching; neither hot water washes nor cauterization provided relief. When the itching subsided, yellowish-red fluid oozed out, causing unbearable pain. Treatments including moxibustion, fumigation, soaking, and herbs such as Rhizoma Realgaris (Shihuang), various roots, Bombyx Batryticatus (Bai Jiangcan), and Radix Aconiti Lateralis Preparata (Yangti Gen) were ineffective. The girl was naturally vain and delicate, but this disease prevented her marriage. Her parents sought treatment from Dai Ren. Dai Ren said: "If you follow my instructions, the illness will be cured." The parents agreed. Dai Ren sharpened needles until they were keen. When the itching occurred, he pricked over a hundred times on each lesion until blood flowed out completely, then washed the area with boiled salt water. This process was repeated four times, after which the severe illness was eliminated. This prescription is not recorded here to warn future practitioners against being misled by other tinea remedies. When dampness invades the blood, bloodletting with bi stones must not be neglected.
Another case involved a one-year-old boy from Cai Zhai, who had wet eczema covering his entire abdomen and chest. Scratching caused yellow fluid to discharge, persisting for a year. Dai Ren first administered pills made of bitter powder to induce emesis. After vomiting, he prescribed Zhouche Wan (Boat and Cart Pill) and Junchuan San (Journey River Powder) to induce purgation, resulting in three to five bowel movements. Subsequently, he prescribed Liangge San (Cool the Diaphragm Powder) with added Natrii Sulfas (Puxiao), decocted and taken in small sips frequently. The patient recovered within a few days.
Han Jiqing from Yingzhou developed wet sores (shi chuang) from his thighs to his feet. The lesions ranged from the size of a coin to a bean. Scratching caused them to break open, and the flowing fluid spread dampness, creating a sensation like insects crawling inside his trousers and socks. This is wet eczema, caused by water-dampness pathogen, hence commonly occurring on the lower limbs. Dai Ren used Zhouche Wan and Junchuan San to induce heavy purgation more than ten times, clearing the disease completely. Although Han had previously disbelieved Dai Ren's medical methods, he became greatly convinced after this cure.
