Instructions for Use

Combine all 7 ingredients in one place. First wrap them in paper, then wrap them in a wheat flour cake about half a cun thick. Wrap them again in several layers of damp paper. Roast over a moderate to high flame for 2 shichen. Remove them; the outer paper will have turned to ash and should be completely discarded. If the flour cake appears uncharred, roast for another half shichen; stop once it is thoroughly charred and cooked.Dig a pit in the ground about 5–6 cuns deep. Place the medicinal ball in the pit and let it sit overnight to remove the heat toxicity. The next day, remove it, peel off the charred outer layer, and grind the remaining medicine into a fine powder. Mix the powder with cooked rice paste to form pills the size of mung beans. The cooked rice paste must be thoroughly mashed; add a small amount of the medicinal powder and knead vigorously until evenly blended. If too much rice paste is used, the medicinal potency will be reduced. Coat the pills with indigo powder.
