Interpretation of the Seventeen Laws of Lei Gong Canned Food;
1. A gun is to bury drugs in a gray fire and blacken the gun. The fried chicken in Fifty-two Diseases Prescription is to wrap the chicken with grass and mud, and then "wrap and burn" it until it is cooked. Modern "cannon" is to fry the medicine until it is slightly black, such as baking ginger, or to fry it with high-temperature sand, and remove the sand to get the medicine, such as baking nail beads.
2. Ai's "Huainan Ming Xun": "The fire cannot be extinguished." Ji Yun: "Fire burns." It means burning and roasting drugs. Such as "Bureau": "The bone is broken and removed."
3. Song Jade: explosion, falling, burning and heat. Shuowen: the sound of burning and violence. Guang Yun: Fire forced. Xu Xuan said: the fire is also cracked. Is to burn something and let it dry.
There are several interpretations of this law. "Baked silkworm eggs" and "baked catalpa leaves" in "Fifty-two Diseases Prescription" are all baked medicines near fire. The roasted donkey-hide gelatin used by Zhang Zhongjing, like "frying" and "roasting sheep fat", is coated with auxiliary materials before frying.
There is no obvious difference between "speculation" and "speculation" in Fang Ju. For example, there is no difference between "speculation" and "speculation" in this book. Now it is basically unified, that is, after adding liquid excipients, stir-fry the medicine with slow fire, or add liquid excipients while frying and stir-fry the medicine with slow fire.
5. Simmer, Tao Hongjing called simmer "sugar ash cannon", which means to slowly ripen the medicine by burying it in an ash fire with embers. Modern medicine has widely used stewed meat with dough and stewed meat with wet paper, which is the development on the basis of the original method.
6. stir fry. Before the Han Dynasty, there were few methods of "frying", and most of them were "boiling", but the tools used were different, but they all put the medicine on the fire to reach the required level. In Reggie's time, there were fried methods such as bran, rice, crisp and wine. Fang Ju in Song Dynasty recorded more frying methods, and modern frying method has become the main method in processing operation.
7. Calcination, a method of calcining drugs on fire. It is mostly used in the processing of mineral medicine and shellfish medicine, such as "burning" mica and ettringite, and "refining" stalactite by Zhang Zhongjing, which are actually calcined. Calcination of some drugs is usually combined with quenching to promote dissolution and pulverization. ?
8. refining means burning drugs for a long time, which has a wide meaning, such as alchemy and honey refining.
9. Control is the general term for controlling the bias of drugs and making them commit crimes. Some inherent properties can be changed by control. In the Han Dynasty, Magnolia officinalis was used with ginger, aconite with honey, rhubarb with wine, and Gleditsia sinensis with crisp. It can be seen that there are many processing methods, which vary with different excipients, dosage, temperature and operation methods, and different drugs often have different processing methods.
10. Degree refers to measuring the size, dimension and length of an object. Some drugs in Fifty-two Diseases Prescription are measured by length. For example, Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi is three inches long. Qi Ben (Lycium barbarum) is as long as a finger. With the development of history, it is gradually measured by weight.
1 1. Flying means "grinding flying" or "water flying". In order to achieve the purpose of superfine, some drugs are often ground into fine powder, ground in water, and then floated to get superfine powder floating on the water for later use. Such as water fly cinnabar, water fly calamine and so on. The "flying" of "flying an alchemist" refers to the sublimation process in the process of alchemy.
12. Voltages generally refer to "reducing fire", that is, drugs are treated by fire according to certain procedures, and after a certain period of time, they reach certain requirements at the corresponding temperature. Different drugs have different requirements for reducing fire. For example, Fulonggan refers to the loess under the lesion, which is formed by long-term continuous heating. Among them, there are many oxides and are weakly alkaline, which is not ordinary loess.
13. Dao, a multi-edged knife, is used to scrape tough drugs into extremely thin slices to facilitate adjustment and preparation, such as Dao Sandalwood and antelope horn. In modern times, it is often replaced by other tools.
14. "Strike" means breaking drugs.
15. Sun is Sun. For example, in Bai Juyi's poems, there is a record of "its western drying platform".
16. Exposure to strong sunlight.
17. Dew refers to the naked exposure of drugs day and night, which is called "night exposure". Rulu cuttlefish bone
