The roots of Trichosanthes kirilowii (i.e. Trichosanthes kirilowii) and Trichosanthes kirilowii (i.e. Trichosanthes kirilowii kernel) are bitter and cold. Li said that the roots are slightly bitter, slightly sour and slightly cold, but they are actually sweet and cold, which is cited as a trial. The root of vegetation is the sea, and its nature is upward; In fact, it has dropped again. The root of Trichosanthes kirilowii can nourish yin and benefit qi, so it is the main heat to quench thirst; It can actually guide phlegm downward, so it is the main cause of sticky pain. This statement by Zhang is true, and so do those who use two things. Trichosanthes kirilowii and pueraria lobata are the same masters to quench thirst and generate body heat, and pueraria lobata and Trichosanthes kirilowii are used to treat spasms. Why? Sweating and urinating, holding your breath, is the evil of cold and dampness, which is difficult to understand at the turn of the sun and Yangming. Radix puerariae can be used as a substitute for ephedra. The root of Trichosanthes kirilowii has no foreign minister, but the syndrome is strong and strong, so that it is suitable for nourishing tendons and dredging veins with other things in Guishao, which is different from others. The root of Trichosanthes kirilowii is used to cure heat and quench thirst, while the powder of oyster and Alisma orientalis is not used to quench thirst, and its companion is something that purges water. After a serious illness, deficiency-heat is inevitable. If the water goes away, the yin will be injured again. If the roots of Trichosanthes kirilowii moisten, the deficiency will be replenished, and the disease can be cured. Although Touqumai Pill is thirsty and cold, the cold makes the bladder unfavorable and accumulates water. Water accumulates in the bottom and yang floats on the top, based on thirst. Therefore, the attached potato warms the lung and kidney, turns qi, drains the stored water from the spirit pulse, and the root of the head stops the thirst of yang floating. A person who knows that there is no ointment is thirsty rather than really hot. The length of scorpion is to guide phlegm and turbidity downward, so it is essential to treat chest pain. However, we can guide it and make it work, instead of letting it go one by one. Cover up its soft nature instead of helping it with rigidity, then it will be weak. Therefore, the small chest-sinking soup has a summer, and the glutinous rice, glutinous rice and other soups have the sweetness of wine, and they are all bitter and quick-tasting. Use their strengths to make up for their shortcomings.
