2.205

蠱道 (Pronounced 姑 + 五 [*gǔ*]. The *Yunying* says: 'Noxious magic to bewitch and delude people.' The *Yunquan* says: 'Pestilential magic that afflicts and harms people; poisonous sorcery.' Character books say: 'A spirit of decay.' The *Shuowen* says: 'Insects within the belly.' It takes 蟲 and 皿; sometimes written 蛄. Some pronounce it as *yědào*, which is merely a regional dialect variation. 蟲 is pronounced 逐 + 融 [*chóng*]; 蠧 is pronounced 都 + 固 [*dù*]; 皿 is pronounced 明 + 秉 [*mǐng*]).
