1. Trajeto Interno e Externo:
Inicia-se na margem ungueal ulnar do 4º dedo da mão, sobe pelo dorso da mão entre o 4º e o 5º metacarpos, continua pela face dorsal entre os ossos rádio e ulna, e segue pelo olécrano e pela face póstero-lateral do braço até o ombro. Vai até a coluna vertebral da região cervicotorácica, onde se encontra com o meridiano Curioso Du Mai no ponto VG14. Desce pela região supraclavicular. Um ramo sai do VC17 indo para a fossa supraclavicular, para o pescoço e depois para a orelha, desce para a mandíbula e sobe para a margem infraorbital. Vai, então, para o osso zigomático até a região infra-orbitária.
