Zhongfu (LU1) is located 1 cun inferior to Yunmen (CH2), in the first intercostal space (note: text says third, but anatomically LU1 is in the first intercostal space, however, strictly translating text: "third intercostal space above the breast" - *Correction*: The text says "ru shang san lei jian" which literally means "above the breast, three rib spaces". Standard anatomy places Zhongfu in the first intercostal space. I will translate literally as per instruction "no addition/omission": "in the space above the breast corresponding to the third rib interval"). *Re-evaluating standard translation vs literal*: The prompt asks for accurate translation. "Ru shang san lei jian" usually refers to the location relative to the nipple/chest wall. In classical texts, Zhongfu is often described as 1 cun below Yunmen. I will translate literally: "in the intercostal space above the breast". Let's stick to the literal text provided: "in the third intercostal space above the breast".
*Self-Correction*: Actually, "San Lei Jian" might be a typo in my interpretation or the text. Standard description is "first intercostal space". However, I must follow the source text. Source: "ru shang san lei jian". I will translate as "in the intercostal space above the breast". To be safe and accurate to the specific characters: "above the breast, in the third intercostal space".
*Refined Translation*: Zhongfu is located 1 cun below Yunmen, above the breast in the third intercostal space, where the arterial pulse is palpable. Needle to a depth of 5 fen and retain for the duration of five respiratory cycles; moxibustion with 5 cones is applicable.
