The first type of circulatory route matched the Sun and twenty-eight lunar mansions because it was believed that the Protecting-Qi circulates through different body parts of human during the day and night. This indicates that the Protecting-Qi passes through the meridians at day time and washes the five viscera at night. The second type matched the hourglass. This means it does twenty-five cycles circulation through three Yang and one Yin in the human body on a centigrade scale. The Protecting-Qi in <i>Lingshu</i> attempted to unify the two circulatory routes numerically by equating the two different time measures-the sun moving and the hourglass. Additionally, it implicitly took an ambiguous concept of 'Yin Fen' to replace the different parts of the five viscera, attempting to unify the two circulatory routes together.
