[discussion by famous experts] 1. In the Compendium: "the Qi of coagulant stone is too cold, and its taste is pungent and salty. It goes into the kidney to remove blood and heat, which is the same as salt. The Hanshui stone used in ancient prescriptions is this stone. The Hanshui stone used in Tang and Song Dynasties is gypsum, while the Hanshui stone used in near squares is feldspar and calcite. The users are detailed. "

② "Ben Cao Jing Shu": "Ning Shui Shi," Ben Jing "is pungent and cold," BIE Lu "is sweet, and cold is non-toxic. According to the classic, the Qi of small heat should be cool, and the Qi of big heat should be cold. In other words, the heat in the internal, treatment of cold and salt. It's cold and salty, so it's hot and evil. The skin is like fire. It's full of trouble, and it's hot and hot in time. Five viscera latent heat, stomach heat also, easy to hunger for thirst, also stomach latent fire also, sweet cold in addition to Yang Ming evil heat, so can quench thirst not hunger. Edema is also damp and hot, urine more adverse, so that the water gas overflow in the abdomen, resulting in abdominal arthralgia, Xin Xian dispersive nature, so it can remove heat, benefit orifices and detumescence. For those who have accumulated in the abdomen, we should also use the work of dispersing the pungent, salty and soft ear. According to this article, the essence of Yun salt is completely different from gypsum and calcite. Because gypsum has the name of Hanshuishi, and Wang Yinjun Fuyun Hanshuishi is also known as calcite, so it is difficult to distinguish. Its functions are different, so it is appropriate to use it separately. Raw brine, taste pungent and salty, broken like Glauber's salt, is condensate stone. Its Qi is very cold, and it can remove excess pathogenic heat. According to the classic, all abdominal distension should be considered as heat, and dampness and swelling should be avoided as spleen and earth. It should be carefully examined to avoid mistakes. "

③ "Ben Jing Feng Yuan" says: "cold water stone is the best medicine for treating heat in heart and kidney. Ben Jing can treat accumulation in abdomen, and salt can soften and firm; body heat and skin are like fire, and salt can reduce fire. The Fengyin Decoction in the golden chamber and Zixue in the local prescription are all used to treat excess pathogenic heat. If there is no truth, Rong salt and xuanjing stone can be used instead, and they are always used to reduce salt and cold. "
