初受其毒者,在胃上脘,用生石膏一两,生白矾五钱共轧细,先用鸡子清七枚调服一半即当吐出。若犹未
吐或吐亦不多,再用生鸡子清七枚调服余一半,必然涌吐。吐后若有余热,单用生石膏细末四两,煮汤两
大碗,将碗置冰水中或新汲井泉水中,俾速冷分数次饮下,以热消为度。若其毒已至中脘,不必用吐药,
可单用生石膏细末二三两,如前用鸡子清调服,酌热之轻重或两次服完,或三次四次服完,毒解不必尽剂。且
热消十之七八即不宜再服石膏末,宜仍如前煮生石膏汤饮之,以消其余热。若其毒已至下脘,宜急导之下行
自大便出,用生石膏细末二两,芒硝一两,如前用鸡子清调服,毒甚者一次服完,服后若有余热,可如
前饮生石膏汤。此方前后虽不同,而总以石膏为主,此乃以石治石,以石之凉者治石之热者。愚用此方救人多
矣,虽在垂危之候,放胆用之,亦可挽救。

戊辰冬,本镇有吴姓幼童,年六岁,由牛马厂经过,一牛以角 入幼童口中,破至耳边,血流不止,幼
童已死。此童无祖无父,其祖母及其母闻之,皆吓死,急迎为挽救。即取食盐炒热熨丹田,用妙化丹点大眼
角,幼童即活。再用妙化丹点其祖母及其母大眼角,须臾亦活。再用灰锰氧将幼童伤处内外洗净,外以胶
布贴之,加绑扎。内食牛乳,三日后视之,已生肌矣。又每日用灰锰氧冲水洗之,两旬全愈,愈后并无疤痕。
又∶一九一七年四月中旬,潜邑张港一妇人,二十余岁,因割麦争界,言语不周,被人举足一踢,
仆地而死。经数医生,有用吹鼻者,有用鹅换气者,有用乌梅擦牙者,百方千方,种种无效,求为往视。其身
冷如冰,牙关紧闭,一日有余矣,而其胸犹微温。急用妙化丹点其大眼角;用食盐二斤炒热,作两包,熨其
丹田,轮流更换,得暖气以助生气。二炷香之久,牙关已开,遂用红糖冲开水服之,即活。
又∶乙丑季夏上旬,曾治刘××,年过四旬,因分家起争,被其弟用刀伤脐下,其肠流出盈盆,忽然
上气喘急,大汗如雨。经数医延医,皆无把握,因迎生速往诊视。观其形状危险,有将脱之势,遂急用生黄
、净萸肉、生山药各一两,固其气以防其脱。煎汤服后,喘定汗止。查看其肠已破,流有粪出,遂先用灰
锰氧冲水,将粪血洗净。所破之肠,又急用桑根白皮作线为之缝好,再略上磺碘,将其肠慢慢纳进。再用洋
白线将肚皮缝好。又用纱布浸灰锰氧水中,候温,复其上,用白士林少调磺碘作药棉,复其上,用绷带扎住,
一日一换。内服用《衷中参西录》内托生肌散,变为汤剂,一日煎渣再服。三星期全愈。
按∶此证未尝用妙化丹,因其伤重而且险,竟能救愈,洵堪
为治此重伤者之表准,故连类及之。且所用内托生肌散,为愚治
疮毒破后生肌之方,凡疮破后溃烂、不速生肌者,用之最效。若
欲将散剂变为汤剂,宜先将天花粉改为四两,一剂分作八剂,一日之间煎渣再服,其生肌之力较服散药尤效。
凡是刚受到砒石毒害的,毒素位于胃的上脘部位。使用生石膏一两、生白矾五钱,共同研磨成细粉。先用七个鸡蛋清调和一半药粉服用,应当会引起呕吐。如果仍然没有呕吐,或者呕吐量不多,再用七个鸡蛋清调和剩余的一半药粉服用,必然会引起剧烈呕吐。呕吐之后如果还有余热,单独使用生石膏细末四两,煮成两大碗汤,将碗放在冰水或新汲取的井泉水中,使其迅速冷却,分几次喝下,以热感消除为限度。如果毒素已经到达中脘部位,不必使用催吐药,可以单独使用生石膏细末二至三两,像前面那样用鸡蛋清调和服用,根据热势的轻重,酌情在两次、三次或四次内服完,毒素解除后不必服完全部剂量。而且当热势消退了十分之七八时,就不宜再服用石膏粉,应该仍然像前面那样煮生石膏汤饮用,以消除剩余的余热。如果毒素已经到达下脘部位,应当紧急引导毒素下行,通过大便排出。使用生石膏细末二两、芒硝一两,像前面那样用鸡蛋清调和服用,中毒严重的可以一次服完,服药后如果还有余热,可以按照前面所述饮用生石膏汤。这个方子前后虽然用法不同,但始终以石膏为主药,这是以石治石,用石头的凉性来治疗石头的热性。我使用这个方子救过很多人,即使在垂危的情况下,大胆使用,也可以挽救生命。
【神授普济五行妙化丹】治疗外伤极其严重,患者呼吸已经停止,或因惊吓而突然昏迷不省人事,甚至气息已断,急需使用此丹药一厘,点入大眼角(男性左眼,女性右眼);再用三分,用开水吞服。对于不能自行服药的患者,用开水冲开药物灌入,片刻即可苏醒。并治疗一切暴病、霍乱、痧证、小儿惊风癫痫、火眼、牙疳、红白痢疾等病症,都有效,现将此方记录如下:

戊辰年冬天,本镇有一位姓吴的六岁幼童,经过牛马厂时,一头牛用角顶入幼童口中,破口直至耳边,血流不止,幼童已经死亡。这个孩子没有祖父和父亲,他的祖母和母亲听说后,都吓死了,急忙迎接我去挽救。立即取食盐炒热熨烫丹田穴,用妙化丹点入大眼角,幼童随即复活。再用妙化丹点入其祖母和母亲的大眼角,片刻也复活了。再用高锰酸钾将幼童伤处内外洗净,外用胶布贴敷,加绑扎固定。内服牛奶,三天后查看,伤口已经长出新肉。又每天用高锰酸钾溶液冲洗,二十天后完全痊愈,愈后并无疤痕。
另外:一九一七年四月中旬,潜山县张港有一位二十多岁的妇人,因割麦争地界,言语不和,被人抬脚踢了一脚,倒地而死。经过几位医生诊治,有用吹鼻子的,有用鹅嘴换气的,有用乌梅擦牙的,各种方法试尽,都没有效果,请求我去诊治。她身体冷如冰,牙关紧闭,已经一天多了,但胸部仍有微温。急忙用妙化丹点入大眼角;用食盐二斤炒热,做成两个包,熨烫丹田穴,轮流更换,借助暖气以助生气。大约两支香的时间,牙关已开,于是用红糖冲开水给她服用,随即苏醒。
另外:乙丑年夏季上旬,我曾治疗刘某某,年龄四十多岁,因分家起争执,被其弟用刀刺伤脐下,肠子流出满盆,忽然上气喘急,大汗如雨。经过多位医生延请诊治,都没有把握,因此急忙迎请我去诊视。观察其形态危险,有元气外脱之势,于是急忙使用生黄芪、净山茱萸、生山药各一两,固护其气以防其脱失。煎汤服用后,喘息平定,汗止。查看其肠子已破裂,有粪便流出,于是先用高锰酸钾溶液冲洗,将粪血洗净。破裂的肠子,又急忙用桑根白皮作为线将其缝合好,再略涂磺碘,将其肠慢慢纳入体内。再用洋白线将肚皮缝合好。又用纱布浸透高锰酸钾水,待温度适宜,覆盖在上面,用少量调磺碘的白士林作药棉覆盖其上,用绷带扎住,一天换一次。内服《衷中参西录》中的内托生肌散,改为汤剂,一天煎渣再服。三星期后完全痊愈。
按语:此病例未曾使用妙化丹,因其伤势严重且危险,竟然能够治愈,确实可以作为治疗此类重伤者的标准,所以连带提及。且所用内托生肌散,是我治疗疮毒破溃后生肌的方子,凡是疮破后溃烂、不快速长出新肉的,使用该方最有效。若想将散剂改为汤剂,应先将天花粉改为四两,一剂分为八份,一天之内煎渣再服,其生肌的效果比服用散药更为显著。
For those who have just been poisoned by arsenic trioxide (Pishi), the toxin is located in the upper part of the stomach (Shangwan). Use one liang of raw Gypsum Fibrosum (Sheng Shigao) and five qian of raw Alum (Sheng Baifan), grind them together into a fine powder. First, mix half of the powder with seven egg whites and take it orally; this should induce vomiting. If there is still no vomiting, or if the amount vomited is not much, use another seven egg whites to mix with the remaining half of the powder and take it; this will inevitably cause severe vomiting. After vomiting, if there is residual heat, use four liang of fine raw Gypsum Fibrosum (Sheng Shigao) powder alone, boil it in water to make two large bowls of decoction. Place the bowl in ice water or newly drawn well water to cool it down quickly, and drink it in several doses until the sensation of heat is eliminated. If the toxin has reached the middle part of the stomach (Zhongwan), there is no need to use emetics. One can use two to three liang of fine raw Gypsum Fibrosum (Sheng Shigao) powder alone, mixed with egg whites as before, and take it according to the severity of the heat, finishing it in two, three, or four doses. Once the toxin is resolved, it is not necessary to finish the entire dose. Moreover, when the heat has subsided by seventy to eighty percent, one should no longer take Gypsum Fibrosum (Shigao) powder but should continue to drink the boiled Gypsum Fibrosum (Sheng Shigao) decoction as before to eliminate the remaining heat. If the toxin has reached the lower part of the stomach (Xiawan), one should urgently guide the toxin downward to be excreted through the stool. Use two liang of fine raw Gypsum Fibrosum (Sheng Shigao) powder and one liang of Mirabilite (Mangxiao), mixed with egg whites as before. For severe poisoning, take it all at once. If there is residual heat after taking the medicine, drink the raw Gypsum Fibrosum (Sheng Shigao) decoction as described above. Although the usage of this prescription varies, it always centers on Gypsum Fibrosum (Shigao). This is treating stone with stone, using the cool nature of stone to treat the hot nature of stone. I have used this prescription to save many people; even in critical conditions, bold use can also rescue them.
[Shen Shou Pu Ji Wu Xing Miao Hua Dan] Treats severe external trauma where the patient's breathing has stopped, or sudden unconsciousness due to fright, or even cessation of breath. Urgently use one li of this pill, apply to the outer canthus of the eye (left for males, right for females); then use three fen, swallow with boiling water. For those unable to take medicine orally, dissolve the medicine in boiling water and administer via gavage; they will regain consciousness in a moment. It also treats all acute diseases, cholera, sha syndrome, pediatric convulsions and epilepsy, fire eyes, gan gangrene, and bloody and white dysentery, all with efficacy. The prescription is recorded below:
Saltpeter (Huoxiao, eight liang) Vitriol (Zaofan, two liang) Realgar (Xionghuang, one liang) Cinnabar (Chensha, three qian) Borneol (Meipian, two qian)
Grind all into an extremely fine powder, store in a bottle, ensuring no leakage of air.
In the winter of the Wuchen year, a six-year-old boy surnamed Wu in our town passed by the cattle and horse yard. A cow gored him with its horn into his mouth, tearing up to his ear, causing continuous bleeding, and the boy died. This child had no grandfather or father. Upon hearing the news, his grandmother and mother both died of fright. They urgently summoned me to rescue them. I immediately took salt, stir-fried it until hot, and applied it to moxa point Shenque (Dantian). I used Miao Hua Dan to apply to the outer canthus of the eye, and the boy revived. I then used Miao Hua Dan to apply to the outer canthus of his grandmother and mother, and they revived in a moment. I then washed the boy's wound inside and out with Potassium Permanganate (Gaimengyang), applied adhesive tape externally, and added bandaging. He drank cow's milk internally. Three days later, upon inspection, new flesh had grown. I continued to wash it daily with Potassium Permanganate solution. After twenty days, he was fully recovered, leaving no scars.
Furthermore: In mid-April 1917, a woman in her twenties from Zhanggang, Qian County, was kicked by someone while arguing over field boundaries during wheat harvesting, fell to the ground, and died. Several doctors had treated her; some used nasal insufflation, some used goose-beak resuscitation, some rubbed Chinese plum (Wumei) on her teeth. Various methods were tried without success. She was requested to seek my help. Her body was cold as ice, her jaw was tightly clenched, and it had been over a day since she collapsed, yet her chest remained slightly warm. I urgently used Miao Hua Dan to apply to the outer canthus of the eye; I stir-fried two jin of salt until hot, made two packs, and applied them to Dantian, replacing them alternately to provide warmth to assist vital energy. After the time it takes to burn two sticks of incense, her jaw opened. I then gave her brown sugar dissolved in boiling water, and she revived.
Furthermore: In early summer of the Yichou year, I treated Mr. Liu, who was over forty years old. Due to a dispute over family property division, he was stabbed below the navel by his brother with a knife. His intestines protruded, filling a basin. He suddenly experienced rapid breathing and profuse sweating like rain. Several doctors were consulted but lacked confidence. I was urgently summoned. Observing his dangerous condition, showing signs of collapse, I urgently used one liang each of raw Radix Astragali (Sheng Huangqi), processed Fructus Corni (Jing Yurou), and raw Rhizoma Dioscoreae (Sheng Shanyao) to consolidate his qi and prevent collapse. After taking the decoction, his panting ceased and sweating stopped. Inspecting the wound, I found the intestine was ruptured with feces flowing out. I first washed away the feces and blood with Potassium Permanganate solution. I then urgently used mulberry root bark (Sanggenbaipi) as thread to suture the ruptured intestine, applied a little sulf-iodine ointment, and slowly returned the intestine to the abdominal cavity. I then sutured the abdominal wall with synthetic sutures. I covered the area with gauze soaked in Potassium Permanganate water, warmed appropriately, placed cotton wool moistened with sulf-iodine ointment on top, and bandaged it securely, changing the dressing once a day. Internally, I administered Neituo Shengji San (Internal Support Muscle-Growth Powder) from "Records of Integrating Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine," prepared as a decoction, brewing the dregs again for consumption within the same day. He fully recovered in three weeks.
Note: This case did not use Miao Hua Dan. Because the injury was severe and critical, yet he was successfully cured, it truly serves as a standard for treating such severe injuries, hence it is mentioned here. The Neituo Shengji San used is my prescription for promoting muscle growth after ulceration of sores. It is most effective for any sore that has ruptured, ulcerated, and fails to heal quickly. If one wishes to convert the powder into a decoction, change the dose of Radix Puerariae Lobatae (Tianhuafen) to four liang. Divide one prescription into eight doses, brew and consume the dregs twice a day. Its muscle-generating power is more effective than taking the powder.
