Objective : The subject of this paper's study is the annotation of Suwenliuqixuanzhumiyu, which is a book regarding the theory of yunqixue, as discovered in so-called Huangdineijingsuwenyipian or Yipian. The purpose of this paper is to ponder upon the relationship of the two texts, and, furthermore, review the relationship between the chapter of Suwen about yunqixue and other texts. Method : Annotations are collected and reviewed based on the theory of yunqixue, and much attention is given to the analysis of estimating in which period Yipian was written. Result : The annotation of Xuanzhumiyu found in Huangdineijingsuwenyipian coincides with that of the currently existing sentence in Suwenliuqixuanzhumiyu. With the publication period of Suwenliuqixuanzhumiyu as evidence, it seems that there is a lot of overlapping between that and Xuanzhumiyu since it was annotated in Huangdineijingsuwenyipian. However, since Huangdineijingsuwenyipian seems to have annotated a part of Xuanzhumiyu, it seems that it was written in a slightly later period. Conclusion : The two books are published in a relatively early period, and they are assessed to be important research data for the theory of yunqixue since they include within them clinical needle techniques and other matters that are not found in the chapter of Suwen about yunqixue.
