服盐卤者,口咸作渴,腹痛身蜷足缩而死。夫盐能补肾,何便杀人?不知盐卤
味苦,苦先入心,心遇盐卤,气郁不通;卤见心不受,乃犯于肾;肾见味苦,又不受,
遂往来心肾之间,心肾之气交相悖,而卤流入于肠,则不可救矣。夫大小肠最恶盐
卤入之,必缩小其肠而成结,结则气不通,安得不蜷曲而死乎!治法用甘草汤解之。
验方 急捣肥皂汁,和水灌之即吐。如吐未尽,用热豆腐浆灌之即吐腐形。如
不吐用鹅翎绞喉数次必吐。
甘草汤 生甘草三两,煎汤救之。如卤未久,加淡豆豉一两同煎服之。肠润未必皆死,要在活用之耳。
又方 冷豆腐浆灌之。
又方 抹墙纸沥水灌之。
又方 皂角水冷服。
书云∶善解毒者无如火,盖火能革物之性。
陈远公曰∶误食漏脯,以致胸膈满饱,上吐下泻,肠如刀割,痛泻不止而有死者。
夫漏脯乃隔宿之肉,为屋漏水滴入名之也,似无大害,何以杀人?此言岁久之屋,梁
尘甚多,屋上必有蛇蝎行走,尘灰倒挂,蛛纲结成,无非毒物天雨之水顺流而下。凡
毒瓦斯得水则化,然化于水中也。水入肉内,毒将何往,自然结于肉中而不化,食之安
得不变生不测哉!亦有食而不死,又何故?此必非岁久之屋,未经毒物故也。虽不死
而病必不免,所以为太上所戒!急用解毒之药自可得生。
服用盐卤的人,会出现口中有咸味、口渴、腹痛、身体蜷缩、双脚收缩的症状,最终导致死亡。盐本能够补肾,为什么反而会致人于死地呢?这是因为盐卤味道苦,苦味首先入心,心脏遇到盐卤后,气机郁滞不通;盐卤发现心脏不能接受它,于是侵犯肾脏;肾脏发现味道是苦的,也不能接受,于是盐卤在心肾之间来回游走,导致心肾之气相互违背冲突,最后盐卤流入肠道,就无法救治了。大小肠最厌恶盐卤进入,一旦进入必然会使肠道收缩变窄并形成结滞,结滞则气机不通,怎么能不蜷曲而死呢!治疗方法是用甘草汤来解毒。
验方:紧急捣碎肥皂取汁,兑水灌服即可引起呕吐。如果呕吐不彻底,用热豆腐浆灌服,即可吐出未消化的食物残渣。如果不呕吐,用鹅毛管刺激咽喉数次,必定会引起呕吐。
甘草汤:生甘草三两,煎汤用于急救。如果误服时间不长,加入淡豆豉一两同煎服用。肠道滋润未必都会致死,关键在于灵活运用。
又一方:灌服冷豆腐浆。
又一方:涂抹墙纸的沥水灌服。
又一方:皂角水冷服。
书中说:善于解毒的方法没有比用火更好的了,因为火能改变事物的本性。
陈远公说:误食漏脯(被屋顶漏水浸湿的肉),导致胸膈部胀满饱闷,上吐下泻,肠道像刀割一样疼痛,痛泻不止而死亡。
所谓漏脯,是指隔夜的肉,被屋顶漏水滴入其中而得名,看似没有大害,为什么会杀人呢?这是因为年代久远的房屋,梁上的灰尘很多,屋顶上必有蛇蝎爬行,灰尘倒挂,蜘蛛网结成,无非都是毒物。天雨顺流而下,凡是有毒的气体遇到水就会化解,但这是在化于水中。水进入肉内,毒素将去向哪里?自然会凝结在肉中而不化解,吃下去怎么能不发生不可预测的变化呢!也有吃了却没有死的,这是什么原因?这一定是因为不是年代久远的房屋,没有经过毒物污染的缘故。虽然不会死,但生病是不可避免的,所以这是太上(最高准则)所告诫的!紧急使用解毒的药物自然可以保全生命。
Those who ingest salt brine will experience a salty taste in the mouth, thirst, abdominal pain, curling of the body, and contraction of the feet, ultimately leading to death. Salt is capable of tonifying the Kidney (Zang-organ associated with water storage and essence), so why does it kill? It is unknown that salt brine has a bitter taste; bitterness enters the Heart first. When the Heart encounters salt brine, Qi stagnation occurs and fails to circulate freely. Finding that the Heart cannot accept it, the brine attacks the Kidney. The Kidney, perceiving the bitter taste, also rejects it. Consequently, the brine moves back and forth between the Heart and the Kidney, causing their Qi to conflict and oppose each other. Eventually, the brine flows into the intestines, rendering the condition incurable. The Large Intestine and Small Intestine most detest the entry of salt brine. Once entered, they must shrink and narrow, forming knots. With knots formed, Qi circulation is blocked; how can one avoid dying while curled up? The treatment method involves using Gancao Tang (Licorice Decoction) to resolve the toxicity.
Empirical Formula: Urgently crush soapberries to extract juice, mix with water, and administer orally to induce vomiting. If vomiting is incomplete, administer hot tofu slurry to induce vomiting of undigested food residues. If vomiting does not occur, stimulate the throat several times with a goose feather to ensure vomiting.
Gancao Tang (Licorice Decoction): Use 3 liang of raw Gancao (Radix Glycyrrhizae Preparata), decoct in water for emergency rescue. If ingestion was recent, add 1 liang of Dan Dou Chi (Fermented Soybean) and decoct together for administration. If the intestines remain moist, death is not inevitable; success depends on flexible application.
Another Formula: Administer cold tofu slurry.
Another Formula: Administer water dripping from plastered walls.
Another Formula: Take Zao Jiao Shui (Soap Pod Water) cold.
The text states: Among methods to detoxify, none is superior to fire, as fire can alter the nature of substances.
Chen Yuan Gong stated: Inadvertently consuming Lou Fu (meat contaminated by roof leakage) leads to fullness and distension in the chest and diaphragm, upper vomiting and lower diarrhea, intestinal pain resembling knife cuts, incessant painful diarrhea, and potentially death.
Lou Fu refers to overnight meat dripped upon by roof leaks. It seems harmless, yet why does it kill? This is because in old houses, there is much dust on the beams, and snakes or scorpions often crawl on the roof. Dust hangs upside down, and spider webs form, all containing toxic substances. Rainwater flows down, and any toxic vapors dissolve in the water. However, when this water enters the meat, where do the toxins go? They naturally condense within the meat and fail to dissipate. Eating such meat inevitably causes unpredictable changes. Some may eat it without dying; what is the reason? This is likely because the house was not old and had not been exposed to toxic contaminants. Although death may be avoided, illness is unavoidable, which is why the Supreme Principle warns against it. Urgent administration of detoxifying herbs will naturally preserve life.
