Jiang Shi, the husband of my concubine’s elder sister, had a hired servant who fell ill and passed blood. A physician judged that he was suffering from gu poisoning, and secretly spread ranghe ginger roots beneath his sleeping mat without letting him know. The servant then raved, “The one who fed me the worms was Zhang Xiaoxiao!” Then he cried out, “Xiaoxiao is dead!” Nowadays, ranghe ginger root is often used to counter gu poisoning, and frequently proves effective. Ranghe is also known as “auspicious herb.”
