Mermaide
The day before, when the Admiral was going to the Rio del Oro, he said he saw three mermaids who came quite high out of the water but were not as pretty as they are depicted, for somehow in the face they look like men. He said that he saw some in Guinea on the coast of Manegueta.

It is the path of running qi and blood, connection zang-fu viscera, communication inside and outside, and run through top and bottom. In Japan, "meridian" is known as "keiraku" and in Korea it's known as "kyungrak".
It is from the techniques and doctrines of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), including acupuncture, acupressure, and qigong. According to these practices, the body's vital energy, "qi", circulates through the body along specific interconnected channels called meridians. There is no physically verifiable anatomical or histological basis for the existence of acupuncture points or meridians. (wikipedia)
