12.43

反足鬼 (the name of a demon; the Kuodi zhi says the Rouli country lies east of the One-Eyed Country: its people have one hand and one foot, with the knee bending backward so the foot faces upward; the commentary says one hand and one foot curved backward; Dongfang Shuo's Shenyi jing says in the Western Wilderness there is a beast shaped like a deer, with a human face, tusks, monkey hands, bear feet, vertical eyes, a horizontal nose, backward heels, immense strength, and a vicious disposition, named 'Vicious Creature' [èwù]—this belongs to the class of demons).
