Jing-Luo System
Traveling course of the regular meridian
It starts from the dorsal hairy region of the great toe at LR 1 Dadun 
, runs down along the dorsum of the foot, passes through LR 4 Zhongfeng 
1 cun in front of the medial malleolus, ascends to an area 8 cun above the medial malleolus where it crosses the Spleen Meridian, runs Further upward to the medial side of the knee, the thigh and the pubic region, curves around the external genitalia, enters the lower abdomen, runs upward via the stomach into the liver, connects with the gall bladder, ascends through the diaphragm, branches out in the costal and hypochondriac region, goes up and connects with the eye system, runs upward, reaches the forehead, and meets the Du Meridian at the vertex.

Traveling course of the collateral
It separates from the regular Liver Meridian at LR 5 Ligou 
, 5 cun above the internal malleolus, and connects with regular Gall Bladder Meridian. A branch travels up to the genitals along the leg.
The muscle region
It starts from the dorsal aspect of the great toe and knots upward in front of the internal malleolus. It then travels up along the medial aspect of the tibia and knots at the medial and inferior region of the knee.
