(From *Bencao Shiyi* [Supplement to Materia Medica])
[Collected Explanations] Chen Zangqi stated: This refers to the meat of the six domestic animals struck by heavenly thunder, utilized in medicine due to this specific circumstance. Li Shizhen stated: According to the *Lei Shu* [Book of Thunder]:
Meat of the six domestic animals struck by lightning must not be eaten, as it causes severe wind diseases.
[Indications] Pediatric nocturnal palpitations and fright; for adults suffering from mental disorientation due to fright, consuming it prepared as dried meat jerky (Chen Zangqi).
(From *Mingyi Bielu* [Record of Famous Physicians], listed under Lower Grade)
[Correction] Originally classified in the Herb Section, it was moved to the Beast Section in the Song edition.
[Collected Explanations] Su Song stated: This is decayed or broken drum skin; the type of animal skin is unspecified, but horse and donkey skins can both be used, with yellow cowhide being superior.
This is what Han Yu of the Tang Dynasty referred to when he said, "Urine of cattle, earthy mushrooms, broken drum skin; physicians collect and store them, finding no use unfulfilled." It is rarely used nowadays, and is particularly favored for making glue.
[Flavor and Properties] Neutral in nature, non-toxic.
[Indications] Poisoning by Gu [a traditional concept of sorcery-induced illness] (*Mingyi Bielu*. Tao Hongjing stated: Burn into powder, mix with water, and ingest. The patient will then call out the name of the Gu master; going to summon the original master to retrieve the Gu will lead to recovery, with efficacy similar to that of white lotus flowers). Treatment for urinary disorders...
[Prescriptions] Two old prescriptions, one new prescription. Poisoning by Gu: The *Meishi Fang* states: For any case of Gu poisoning, symptoms may include bloody stool resembling goose liver, hematemesis [vomiting blood], or severe abdominal pain as if bitten by something. If not treated immediately, the Gu worms will consume the five zang organs, leading to death. To determine if it is Gu, have the patient vomit water; if it sinks, it is Gu; if it floats, it is not. Use broken drum skin burned to ash, taken with wine, one fangcun bi [approx. 1 cubic inch dose]. Shortly after, the patient will spontaneously call out the name of the Gu master. The *Waitai Miyao* [Essential Prescriptions Worth a Thousand Gold for Emergencies] states: To treat Gu poisoning, take broken drum skin 5 cun wide and 1 chi long, rose root 5 cun thick as a thumb, add one sheng of water and three sheng of wine, boil down to two sheng, and administer. Expulsion of Gu worms indicates cure. Moon eclipse sores: The *Jiyan Fang* states: Use drum skin intended for saving moon eclipses, a piece the size of a palm, soak in three sheng of vinegar overnight, and apply externally. Alternatively, burn to ash and mix with lard for application. (*Waitai Miyao*).
(From *Bencao Shiyi* [Supplement to Materia Medica])
[Collected Explanations] Li Shizhen stated: There are many types of felt, produced in the northwest regions, all made from animal hair. White and black are natural colors. Blue, dark blue, yellow, and red are dyed colors. Terms such as felt blankets, coarse cloth, wool carpets, and Tibetan rugs are named according to the object.
Black Felt
[Flavor and Properties] Non-toxic.
[Indications] Burns causing open sores, preventing exposure to wind pathogens and dampness; stops bleeding; dispels thief-wind [sudden, severe wind pathogenic factors]. Burned to ash and taken with wine, two qianbi doses, treats postpartum hemorrhage that does not stop. Prolonged bedridden state, inhaling human lipids and blood, damages complexion, leads to rebellious qi rising (Chen Zangqi).
[Prescriptions] Four new prescriptions.
Traumatic injury and pain: Two pieces of old horse felt, five sheng of wine, one chao [unit of weight] of salt, boil hot and wrap around the affected area; change when cool, repeat three to five times...
Gum and nasal gangrene: Coarse cloth [regardless of red or black, burned to retain its properties], alum [burned until dry] each one qian, white alkali from urine buckets one and a half qian [burned],
grind together and apply externally, miraculous effect. (*Jianbian Danfang* [Simple and Convenient Single Prescriptions])
Nighttime sleep paralysis [ghost pressing on body]: Use one chi of red felt as a pillow, brings immediate peace. (*...)
Red and white leukorrhea and metrorrhagia: Felt burned to ash, taken with wine, two qian. For white leukorrhea/hemorrhage use white felt, for red use red felt. (*Haishang Xianfang* [Immortal Prescriptions from the Sea])
