Huitong Yin 1

The earliest surviving qin version of Huitong Yin dates from 1549, where it serves as a prelude to Guan Guang (Yu Hui Tushan). It then appears in at least six later handbooks,4 again often preceding Yu Hui Tushan. It does not seem to be related to Huibin Yin.5

Further commentary not yet ready.
