Cover the bowl with another bowl, place it on clean soil, and cover it completely with fresh yellow earth all around and on top, ensuring it is well-ventilated.After 3–4 days and nights, open it to inspect; if a half-cun-long, jade-green substance has formed on the realgar-covered coins, remove them and store them in a separate container. Mylabris (with wings and legs intact), 1 piece of frankincense (the size of a jujube), 3 qian of Qinpi, 3 qian of Coptis chinensis, 3 plump dried jujubes,a handful of lamp wick (7 inches long), and 7 ancient coins (place these 7 ingredients in an oil-free stone vessel; add 1 large bowl of fresh well water and simmer until reduced to half a bowl; filter through cotton into the stone vessel; add another bowl of water to the residue, simmer until reduced to half a bowl, filter out the residue, combine the liquids, and simmer over low-to-medium heat until it becomes a paste, yielding approximately one and a half spoonfuls).
