本事方记载：绍兴癸丑年，我在四明等待任职期间，有一位董先生，患神气不宁，每次睡觉时魂魄飞扬，感觉身体在床上，但魂魄却游离在外。大家都认为是心病。我说：“从脉象来看，是肝经受邪，不是心病。肝经因虚而受邪气侵袭。肝脏藏魂，游魂发生变异。正常人肝不受邪，所以睡觉时魂归于肝，神静而能入睡。现在肝有邪气，魂不能归，所以睡觉时魂好像离开身体一样。”肝主怒，轻微发怒就会加重病情。董欣说：“以前没听说过这种说法，虽然还没服药，已经觉得沉重感离体了。希望求得药方。”我说：“您先持这个观点，与其他医生讨论所治疗的方子，然后慢慢验证。”过了十天他又来，说：“医生们遍议古今方书，没有与心相对的方子。”所以我给他开了真珠丸和独活汤。这两个方子，服用一个月后痊愈。珍珠母为君药，龙齿为佐药。珍珠入肝经为第一，龙齿入肝，因为同类。龙齿是镇心药，殊不知龙齿安魂，虎睛定魄，这是各言其类。东方苍龙，属肝而藏魂；西方白虎，属肺而藏魄。龙能变化，所以魂游而不定；虎能专静，所以魂止而有守。治疗魂飞扬者，宜用龙齿。万物有成理而不说，这也在于人的通达理解。

Ben Shi Fang records: In the year Guichou of Shaoxing, while waiting for appointment in Siming, I had a patient named Mr. Dong suffering from restlessness of Shen Qi. Whenever he slept, his Hun (Ethereal Soul) would fly away, feeling his body was in bed while his soul wandered outside. Everyone thought it was a Heart disease. I said, "Based on the pulse, it is pathogenic factors affecting the Liver Meridian, not a Heart disease. The Liver Meridian is affected by pathogenic factors due to deficiency. The Liver stores the Hun. Abnormal wandering of the Hun causes changes. In healthy people, the Liver is not affected by pathogens, so when sleeping, the Hun returns to the Liver, Shen is calm, and sleep is achieved. Now, because there are pathogens in the Liver, the Hun cannot return, so when sleeping, the Hun feels like it leaves the body." The Liver governs anger; slight anger exacerbates the condition. Dong Xin said, "I have never heard this before. Although I haven't taken medicine yet, I already feel the heaviness leaving my body. I wish to obtain the prescription." I said, "Hold onto this theory and discuss the treatment with other doctors, then verify slowly." Ten days later he returned, saying, "Doctors discussed ancient and modern prescriptions, none matched the Heart." So I prescribed Zhenzhu Wan and Duhuo Tang. After taking these two formulas for one month, he recovered. Mother-of-pearl shell is the Sovereign herb, Dragon Tooth is the Assistant. Pearl enters the Liver Meridian primarily; Dragon Tooth enters the Liver because they are of the same category. Dragon Tooth calms the Heart, but unknown to many, Dragon Tooth calms the Hun, while Tiger Eye stabilizes the Po. This refers to their respective categories. The Azure Dragon of the East belongs to the Liver and stores the Hun; the White Tiger of the West belongs to the Lung and stores the Po. The Dragon can change, so the Hun wanders and is unstable; the Tiger is tranquil, so the Hun stops and has control. For treating flying Hun, Dragon Tooth should be used. All things have inherent principles that are not spoken; it depends on human understanding.
