Introduction.

It could be argued that Yeu-jio-dlang-hnu has no place in an account of Miao spirit worship since "nobody worshipped him or regarded him". Yang Yung-xin included him only in the list of spirits in M371, noting that he was reputed to have created heaven and earth. All that Wang Ming-ji has to say has been gathered from the Song of Creation and the Song of the Flood. If there were other traditions or information about Yeu-jio-dlang-hnu the impression is that neither writer was aware of them.
