1. Male Yin Meridian
The “Su Wen: On Pain” states, “The Jue Yin pulse connects to the Yin organs and belongs to the liver.”
The “Ling Shu: Meridians” states:
“The pulse of the foot Jue Yin… follows the inner thigh, enters the hair, and passes through the Yin organs”;
“The branch of the foot Jue Yin… follows the leg up to the testicles, and connects at the root.”
Upon observation, it indeed follows the urgent pulse from the Yin Lian, from the top of the testicles, running between the two testicles, circling around the testicles, reaching the top of the testicles, wrapping around the penis, and then ascending along the outer side of the penis into the abdomen, reaching Zhang Men.
The testicles are where the original Yang resides, and the Jue Yin liver is cold, thus one should seek treatment here. However, the method is not to be disclosed without secret transmission. Students may explore it in Zhang Zhenren’s “Rootless Tree”.
The Male Yin seam, also known as a meridian point, is located at the center where the base of the penis intersects with the scrotum. It treats three conditions:
The first is jaundice. Jaundice affects estrogen inactivation, leading to genital atrophy over time.
The second is Yin and egg descent, which indicates that this line must not be correct.
The third is ghost hiding, which refers to the consumption of sexual fluids.
For women, the needling method should be avoided.
Additionally, the bottom of the scrotum point is located in the male perineum, in the crosshairs of the scrotum, in front of the Ren Meridian’s perineal point, treating conditions such as underdeveloped testicles, epididymitis, spermatic cord inflammation, excessive sweating, eczema, anal eczema, and hernia.
Two points of massage have secret transmissions. The bottom of the scrotum point also treats Jue syndrome and resists shock.
Moreover, the glans point treats acute epilepsy, and moxibustion should be applied around the glans, facilitating urination, releasing Yang Qi, and resolving the illness.
The Male Yin seam, also known as the male Yin seam, is the eleventh needle in Sun Zhenren’s thirteen ghost needles, with the male being the Yin seam and the female being the Jade Gate, named ghost hiding, which conceals Yin substances.
There are two connecting meridians near the testicles, namely Te Gao Meridian and Gen Chong Meridian.
Between the top of the testicles and the base of the penis, there is a Jue Yin connecting meridian. During sexual arousal, this connecting meridian (Te Gao Meridian) contracts, causing the testicles to ascend and come closer to the abdomen. If the Qi and blood of this connecting meridian are deficient, both testicles will sag (similar to the sagging of breasts in elderly women).
During intercourse, the Ren Meridian collects impulse information along the segment of the Yin organs, transmitting it from the base of the Yin organs to the Tian Gen point of the Jue Yin Meridian, where Qi and blood accumulate, causing the Qi and blood of the Jue Yin Meridian to surge towards Tian Gen, resulting in unbearable soreness and swelling on the inner thigh.
The Qi and blood surge from Tian Gen:
Firstly, it transmits through the connecting meridian (Gen Chong Meridian) to push the Yang Ming Meridian Qi, causing the spermatic duct to contract, transporting semen to the seminal vesicle, filling it;
Secondly, the urgent pulse receives the Qi from Tian Gen, with Qi and blood surging rapidly, leading to an uncontrollable release of semen, thus achieving adulthood.
Stimulating the Tian Gen point can induce ejaculation.

2. Du Yin Meridian
Du Yin is located under the horizontal line of the second toe. This point connects with Da Dun and has similar effects, often used in conjunction. It treats conditions such as cold hernia, stillbirth, retained placenta, menstrual irregularities, and sudden heart pain.
The moxibustion method is special, either for males on the left and females on the right, or both feet can be treated.
Upon observation, it belongs to the foot Jue Yin and should not be considered an extraordinary point outside the meridian.

3. Yang Quan Meridian
The common peroneal nerve wraps around the neck of the fibula and enters the gastrocnemius muscle, dividing into the superficial and deep peroneal nerves below Yang Ling Quan.
Superficial peroneal nerve:
One branch descends to the front of the outer ankle (running along with the foot Shao Yang Meridian), innervating the dorsum of the foot;
One branch runs behind the outer ankle (running along with the foot Bladder Meridian).
The deep peroneal nerve emerges superficially between the first and second toes, innervating this area (foot Jue Yin liver Meridian Da Dun/Du Yin – Xing Jian – Tai Chong).
Thus, Yang Ling Quan is a point that connects the Tai Yang, Shao Yang, and Jue Yin meridians.
