Which GV point lies on the back of the head on the midline, 1.5 cun directly superior to Qiángjiān DU-18 and 1.5 cun posterior to Bǎihuì DU-20?

Explanation:
On the back of the head along the midline, the Governing Vessel points are found by fixed vertical measurements from known landmarks. The spot described sits 1.5 cun behind Baihui (the vertex) and 1.5 cun above Qiángjiān (DU-18), placing it on the midline toward the back of the head. That precise intersection corresponds to GV-21. Visualizing the head in those terms—start at Baihui, move 1.5 cun posterior along the midline, and confirm it lies 1.5 cun superior to DU-18—gives the exact location of this point.
