Processing

Finely chop all ingredients. In a stone vessel, first add the oil along with Bai Ji and the other herbs, and simmer until charred black. Strain through cotton to remove the dregs. Add the lead丹 and Croton seeds, then simmer over low heat until it forms a paste. First, add one bowl of water; then drop the mixture into the water—the medicine should sink directly into the water and form pearl-like beads. Scrape the paste off the bottom and transfer it to a porcelain container for storage.
