【雷音丸方】
巴豆(二两),去掉仁,只使用豆皮。每二两豆子,可得豆皮三四钱。将豆皮微炒至黄色。千万不可使用一粒巴豆仁。缩砂仁(一两,炒制)、川大黄(三钱,一半生用,一半炒制)、干姜(三钱,炒黑)、广木香(三钱,炒黑)、牙皂(两个,去除筋络后炒制)、甘遂(一钱五分,炒至黄色)。
以上七味药共同研磨成细末。用绢筛过滤,用醋调和面糊制成丸药,大小如绿豆,以锅底烟煤(百草霜)研成的细粉作为包衣,晒干。每天早晨空腹时,用姜汤送服三十到四十丸。每次服用后可排泄水湿二三次,每日服药则每日腹泻,随着腹泻次数增加,水肿逐渐消退,大便逐渐变实,小便逐渐增多且颜色变白,一直服用直到体内积水排尽为止。但必须根据患者的年龄、体质强弱来调整泻下的程度,增减丸药数量,不可拘泥固执。此药治病,多则服用一料,少则半料即可痊愈。同时也兼治酒积和食积,都能获得奇效。请珍视并保密此方。此药虽然具有泻下作用,但不会损伤元气。凡是患有水臌(腹部积水胀大)的患者,服药之后,切忌食用盐和酱类食物一百多天,如果一旦违犯,病情复发将无法救治。醋应选用腊月酿造的醋;烟煤即百草霜,宜选用焚烧杂草产生的烟灰为佳。甘遂需用甘草水浸泡三天,每天换一次水,直到水中没有黑色物质为止,然后用面粉包裹,在火旁煨烤,直到面粉全部变成黄色为止。但是甘遂与甘草性质相反,关键在于医生善于运用,因为甘遂药性猛烈,通过这种方法可以去除其暴烈之性。

[Lei Yin Wan Formula]
Crotonis Fructus Pericarpium (Badou Doupi, 巴豆皮), remove the kernel and use only the pericarp. From two taels of beans, approximately three to four qian of pericarp can be obtained. Lightly stir-fry until yellow. Under no circumstances should a single Crotonis Fructus kernel be used. Amomi Fructus Rotundus (Suansharen, 缩砂仁) (one tael, stir-fried); Rheum Palmatum Radix et Rhizoma (Chuan Dahuang, 川大黄) (three qian, half raw and half stir-fried); Zingiberis Rhizoma Preparatum (Ganjiang, 干姜) (three qian, stir-fried until black); Aucklandiae Radix (Guang Muxiang, 广木香) (three qian, stir-fried until black); Gleditsiae Sinensis Fructus cum Spina (Yazao, 牙皂) (two pieces, remove tendons and stir-fried); Kansui Radix (Gansui, 甘遂) (one qian five fen, stir-fried until yellow).
The above seven herbs are ground together into a fine powder. Sieve through silk gauze, mix with vinegar and wheat paste to form pills, sized like mung beans. Coat with fine powder from soot collected from the bottom of cooking pots (Baicaoshuang, 百草霜), and dry in the sun. Take thirty to forty pills each morning on an empty stomach, delivered with ginger decoction. Each dose may induce water evacuation two or three times; daily administration leads to daily purging, and as purging continues, edema gradually subsides. Stool becomes firmer, and urine volume increases while its color becomes clearer. Continue administration until all retained fluid is expelled. However, the dosage must be adjusted according to the patient's age and physical constitution (strong or weak) to control the degree of purging; do not adhere rigidly to fixed numbers. For treating diseases, one batch may suffice for severe cases, or half a batch for mild cases, leading to recovery. This formula also treats alcohol accumulation and food stagnation with remarkable efficacy. Guard this secret carefully. Although this medicine induces purgation, it does not damage the primordial Qi (Yuánqì, 元气). For patients suffering from Shuigu (Water Drum, abdominal ascites), salt and soy sauce must be strictly avoided for over one hundred days after taking the medicine; if violated, relapse will occur and cannot be saved. Use vinegar brewed in the twelfth lunar month (Lacù, 腊醋). The soot refers to Baicaoshuang (Baicaoshuang, 百草霜); soot from burning weeds is preferred. Kansui Radix (Gansui, 甘遂) should be soaked in Licorice Root decoction (Gancao, 甘草) for three days, changing the water once daily, until the water shows no black discoloration. Then, wrap in wheat flour and bake near fire until the flour turns entirely yellow. Although Kansui Radix (Gansui, 甘遂) and Licorice Root (Gancao, 甘草) have contrary properties, the key lies in the physician's skillful application; since Kansui Radix (Gansui, 甘遂) is potent and violent, this processing method removes its harshness.

Pomatiopsis Burliana (Tianluo, 田螺) (four pieces, remove shell); Allium Sativum Bulb (Dasuantou, 蒜头) (five cloves, remove skin); Plantaginis Herba (Cheqiancao, 车前草) (three qian; alternatively, Plantaginis Semen Powder, Cheqianzi, 车前子).
Mash the above three ingredients together into a paste. Form into one cake and apply to the umbilicus (Shenzhu, 神阙). When fluid exits via urination, the disease is cured. After applying the medicine, bind firmly with a handkerchief. Shortly thereafter, urination becomes distinct and abundant; replacing with two or three cakes is especially effective.
[Miraculous Formula for Qi Drum and Water Drum (Transmitted by Yang Zeqing, rare ingredients, carefully preserved)]
Meconium from the first-born male infant (one portion); Egg from the first-laid hen (one piece).
Make a small hole in the egg and pour out all albumen and yolk. Fill the shell completely with meconium. Seal tightly with thick paper. On the day the hen begins incubating eggs, place it inside for twenty-one days of incubation, then retrieve. Grind the meconium into an extremely fine powder. Prepare Agarwood (Chenxiang, 沉香) and a wooden tube. Place the meconium powder into the tube, cover with one tael of Mercury (Shuiyin, 水银) to "nourish" it. Seal the tube mouth with yellow beeswax. Carry it close to the body to nourish it with human breath. When needed, pour out the mercury. Use a bone needle to pick up a small amount of meconium powder. According to the rule "left for males, right for females," apply to the inner canthus of the eye. If
