There are eighteen types of Chuan Shi Lao Chong (Transmitting Corpse Parasites). The Chuan Shi disease transmits from top to bottom, and the symptoms resemble those of previous patients, hence it is also called "Zhu" (Impression/Transmission). [Note: The sentence in parentheses seems erroneous.] It transforms into various species, most bizarre.
First generation: The parasite resembles an infant, or a ghost, or a toad. It becomes active on Bing-Ding days and returns to Xinshu (BL-15) after intoxication.
Second generation: The parasite resembles tangled hair, or a gecko, or a centipede, or a shrimp. It becomes active on Geng-Xin days and returns to Feishu (BL-13) after intoxication.
Third generation: The parasite resembles mosquitoes or ants, or a dung beetle, or a thorn... [Text cuts off]. It becomes active on Geng-Xin days and returns to Jueyin after intoxication.
Fourth generation: The parasite resembles tangled silk, or pig liver, or earthworms, or snakes. It becomes active on Wu-Ji days and returns to Pishu (BL-20) after intoxication.
Fifth generation: The parasite resembles turtles or tortoises, having head but no feet, or feet but no head, or resembling mice, or semen/blood. It becomes active on Jia-Yi days and returns to Ganshu (BL-18) after intoxication.
Sixth generation: The parasite resembles horse tails, two in number, one male and one female, or resembling a turtle with head, feet, and tail, or resembling rotten dough, varying in length. It becomes active on Gui-Hai days and returns to Shenshu (BL-23) after intoxication.
In ancient times, there were also Nine Worms: First is Fu Chong (Hidden Worm), about four cun long, the leader of all worms; Second is Hui Chong (Roundworm), about one chi long, piercing the heart causes death; Third is Bai... [Text cuts off]
Fifth is Fei Chong (Lung Worm), resembling a silkworm, causing coughing; Sixth is ... [Text cuts off] worm, resembling a toad, causing vomiting, hiccups, preference for vomiting, gastric discomfort, and craving for mud, charcoal, uncooked rice, tea, salt, ginger, pepper, etc.; Seventh is Ge Chong (Diaphragm Worm), resembling melon seeds, causing excessive salivation; Eighth is Chi Chong (Red Worm), resembling raw meat, causing borborygmus; Ninth is Tuo Chong (Pinworm), resembling vegetable worms, extremely minute in shape.
Generally, all these worms arise from irregular diet, improper balance of hunger and fullness, excessive consumption of raw fish and roasted meats, or eating turtle and amaranth together. This leads to stagnation in Zhongwan (CV-12) due to impaired movement of Qi and Blood, forming accumulations. Over time, accumulations generate heat. Damp-heat steams and fumes, condensing with blood stasis. Following the Qi of the Five Elements, they transform into various strange forms, just as decaying grass turns into fireflies.
In cases of worm syndromes, the area above and below the eye sockets is blue-black, complexion is sallow and withered, there are distinct red blood vessels on the face resembling crab claws, loss of appetite, lack of muscle growth, heaviness, and alternating cold and fever. If not treated early, the cycle continues endlessly, piercing the heart and causing death.
