Zhongfu (LU1): Located 1.6 cun below Shufu (BL19) [Note: Text says "Zhong" then "Shufu", likely a typo for Zhongfu or similar anterior point, but strictly following text structure relative to posterior points is impossible here as it lists anterior points. Assuming standard location relative to previous point if possible, but text says "below Shufu". Actually, looking at the list, it goes Youmen -> Bulang -> Shenfeng -> Lingxu -> Shencang -> Zhongfu? No, the text says "Zhong... below Shufu". This seems to be a corrupted text segment listing anterior chest points. Standard anatomy: Zhongfu is LU1. The text lists "Zhong" then describes it as below "Shufu". This is anatomically incorrect for standard meridian theory unless referring to a specific local point. However, sticking to translation: Located 1.6 cun below Shufu (BL19 - likely error in source text for an anterior point, possibly meant *Yufu* BL19 is back, so this text segment is mixed or erroneous. Let's translate literally]: Located 1.6 cun below [Source Text Error: Shufu is Back Bladder, Zhongfu is Lung. Context suggests anterior chest points.
