For epidemic diseases spreading through the air, it is common to boil branches of peach trees growing towards the east and use the decoction for bathing, which yields good results. (*Lei Yao*)
Another method: take the clothing of the first patient in the household, steam it on a steamer, and then the entire family will remain uninfected. (*Bencao Gangmu*)
To ward off plagues: on the Yin day of the first lunar month, crush *Nvqing* powder, place it in a triangular silk pouch, and hang it inside the bed curtain for great auspiciousness. (*Zhouhou Beiji Fang*)
Another method: on New Year's Day, take bricks from an ancient tomb, recite a spell over them, and hang them above the main gate; this ensures no epidemic disease for one year. (Ibid.)
When an epidemic disease first begins: if one feels headache, immediately mix mustard seed powder with water, fill the navel with it, and apply heat using a hot object covered by a layer of cloth. Sweating will follow, leading to recovery. (*Shouyu Shenfang*)
For Da Tou Wen (Big Head Plague, an acute infectious disease characterized by swelling and redness of the head and face): take a handful of *Malan* heads, crush them to extract juice, apply the juice to the affected area with a goose feather five or six times a day. The pathogenic heat will be expelled immediately; this has been personally verified as a miraculous prescription. (*Zhongfutang Fang*)
Bao Tou Huo Dan (Fire Erysipema of the Head, i.e., Da Tou Wen): crush *Bianbaiye* leaves, mix with egg white, and apply externally. It is highly effective. (Ibid.)
For Lu Wen (a plague characterized by swelling of both cheeks, aversion to cold, and fever): take half a sheng of *Chidou*, grind into powder, mix with water, and apply externally. Alternatively, crush *Cebaiye* leaves and apply externally. (Ibid.)
For Xia Ma Wen (a plague where the skin resembles that of a toad, attributed to Wind-Heat): use the natural juice of *Cebaiye* mixed with earthworm feces for external application. Alternatively, mix *Dingxiang* and *Jian Nanting* with vinegar, grind, and apply externally. (*Yi Jing*)

Grind all into powder, mix with honey water, apply externally, and sweep frequently over the affected areas. (*Yanshu Shu*)
Biwun Xiandan (Plague-Warding Immortal Pill): Red Dates (8 pieces), *Jiangxiang* (5 qian), *Cangzhu* (2 qian), *Yunxiang* (1 qian). Grind all into powder, bind with rice gruel juice to form pills, each weighing approximately 1 qian. Make a small hole in the center of each pill, insert a small amount of *Zhusha*, and store in a porcelain jar. When epidemics occur, burn the pills in a stove to ward off pestilential qi.
