Benefits

Twenty-Four Types of Ulcerative Toxins.

Instructions for Use

First, mix the three types of ash thoroughly in one container. Grind the three medicinal ingredients into a fine powder in a separate container. Place a sieve in a box, line the sieve with a piece of silk, spread the ash over the silk, and place a mortar filled with the powder underneath.Pour 5 bowls of boiling water over the mixture to extract the liquid. Wait until it has settled slightly; do not stir with your feet. Pour the liquid into a cauldron and bring to a boil. As it evaporates, add more water until the volume is reduced to about half a bowl—roughly the size of two sips. Once dry, scoop it out and transfer it to a porcelain container. Mix thoroughly with the pepper, castor beans, and toad-seed, then seal tightly with beeswax to prevent air from escaping. Allow to cool.Take a speck-sized amount and gently dab it on the tip of the tongue; it will immediately cause a slight ulceration, but after a quarter of an hour, there will be no further discomfort—this is proof of its efficacy.
