If the left pain moves to the right, and the right pain moves to the left, the wind and fire blow its phlegm and dampness, so it is also exchanged. If the pain lasts for a long time, it will make people blind. If the eyes are blind, the liver knows the tricks, and the liver wind moves inward, which is harmful to the virtual tricks. If the evil of covering wood runs rampant, it will lead to wind and fire, which will help phlegm accumulate in the chest and harm the ears with the fire. "
