Use 240 ml of genuine sesame oil, first boil the angelica root, angelica dahurica, and licorice until they turn a deep yellow, then filter to remove the dregs. Next, add dragon's blood and boil until it dissolves, then filter again. Then add gromwell and white wax slices, bring to a slight boil for about ten rolls, then remove from heat. Filter out the gromwell residue, and the color will be bright and lovely. If boiled too long, it will turn purplish-black.

Wind-cold invades the skin, and the blood fails to nourish the surface, leading to severe pain. The hands and feet feel as if they have no skin, and even a slight touch of clothing or pressing with the hand causes excruciating pain that reaches the heart.
