Simmer until the Angelica dahurica turns yellowish-red, then strain through cotton. Wipe the cauldron clean, then simmer again. Add the orpiment and stir with a willow wood spatula until the mixture turns black. Immediately add the beeswax and melt it completely; when drops fall into water and form beads that do not disperse, add the powdered herbs one by one, stirring until evenly mixed. Store in a porcelain container.
