The original points of the five internal organs of the Yin meridian are also the missing points of the five Shu points of the Yin meridian, so that the missing points of the Yin meridian are the same as the original points, and the missing points of the Yang meridian are separated from the original points. According to the theory of qi and blood and the theory of yin and yang in traditional Chinese medicine, Taichong point is the point of liver meridian, that is, Jueyin meridian, which is "less qi and more blood", and the liver governs storing blood, and the body yin uses yang.
