Is the garrison from China or Japanese?

The garrison belongs to China. In the Tang dynasty, it was sent back to Japan by the envoys of the Tang dynasty, so Japan had a garrison. Although both the China Garrison and the Japanese Garrison aim to ward off evil spirits and maintain peace, the China Garrison often puts some herbs in it to repel mosquitoes and soothe the nerves, while the Japanese Garrison will put some boards or pieces of paper in it.

As people's wishes become more and more purposeful, the types of defense are becoming more and more abundant, such as traffic safety, safe production, happy marriage, study, health and so on. There are also Chinese characters in the Japanese garrison because of China's cultural heritage. Moreover, the more important occasions and documents, the more Chinese characters are used, such as Japanese Buddhist scriptures, which are almost all Chinese characters. Most Japanese names are written in Chinese characters, but the pronunciation is completely different from Chinese.

Protected species

There are many kinds of guards, simply classified according to their functions:

Things to pray for: safe production, qualified grades, official business (work), desire, love, work, study, transportation and travel.

Daily blessing: good luck, health, good luck, long life, good luck, good luck and success.

In addition to the common ones, different shrines will also have their own alternative guards. For example, blessing beautiful women, winning competitive sports results, and even healthy foot defense, husband and wife defense, boy (girl) desire realization defense, etc., are all very interesting.
