The origin of the Japanese Hachiman God is said to come from Hikaruto Misato, and is generally regarded as the origin of the three gods, Emperor Eki, and Empress of the Divine Kung. They guard the country, eliminate disasters, bless childbirth, and possess various merits. Because they are also the patron god of the Genji clan, they have also been regarded as the God of War since the Kamakura era, and have more than 400 shrines worshiping Hachiman God. Hachiman Great Bodhisattva has been widely believed in since ancient times as the god of bows and arrows. Many of these Genji families with a long history worship Hachiman Great Bodhisattva.

The god worshipped in the Hachiman Palace in Japan, also known as the Hachiman Daming God. According to legend, this god was originally the god of the local wealthy family of Usa Toyomae. The earliest written record of Hachiman God is the record of sending an envoy to Ise Temple and Hachiman II to complain; the same volume 14, "The Thirteenth Year of Tianping" is: "The Golden Character of Hachiman God Palace "The Most Successful King Sutra" and "The Lotus Sutra" are each, and a three-layer pagoda and one foundation are built. There are already signs of the integration of gods and Buddhas.

.In December of the first year of Tianping Shengbao (749), the god Usa Hachiman was invited to Rihara Palace in Hirakigun, Yamato Kingdom (Nara Prefecture), and regarded as the temple (i.e. the Hachiman Palace in Todaji Temple). At the same time, it was respected by the court. By the early Heian era, the mixture with Buddhism became increasingly deeper, so it was called Hachiman Bodhisattva. People in the Warring States Period were generally superstitious, so they believed in various gods to varying degrees, especially Hachiman Bodhisattva, who was the most widely worshipped god.

Faith has always been an effective means to strengthen territorial rule. And Masara Luo planned to use the help of Hachiman Bodhisattva to establish greater prestige in the hearts of the people.

On a flat ground in front of Xiaomu Village, nearly 60 people gathered at this moment. They were staring at a small platform built with wood in front of them. The majestic Luo Masayoshi stood high on the platform, whose figure was originally taller than others, and looked even more majestic. Among the villagers below, some of them had a respectful eyes, while some of them had a shock and suspicion. The people who showed respect were the towns of Xiaomu Village who witnessed Masayoshi's heroic performance last night, and the villagers of Daxi Village who had just gathered here were shocked and suspicious.

Luo Shi Zhengliang slowly glanced at the leaders in front of him. Women and children accounted for the majority, and basically everyone was pale and thin. This was his leaders. Looking at the villagers in front of him, Luo Shi Zhengliang felt a sense of pride and responsibility.

"Everyone, the bandits repeatedly invaded our homes, robbed our food, bullied our wives and daughters, and massacred our family. What do you think of?" Luo Shi Zhengliang shouted loudly.

Silence, dead silence.

"Oh? Are you willing to watch your food being stolen, your wife and daughter being bullied, and your family being slaughtered?" Luo Shi Zhengliang pointed at several men in the crowd with a sneering face and shouted. Several men lowered their heads in shame.

"Or, are you willing to watch your children be massacred and become slaves to others?" Luo Shi Zhengliang changed his tone and pointed at the women in the crowd. Several women seemed to have been aroused of miserable experiences and started crying in a low voice.

"Hahaha" Luo's Masayoshi laughed, "Are you scared? Look here." Luo's Masayoshi raised a sword in his hand high.

"Did you recognize it? Yes, this is the bandit leader's blade. How much blood has your family stuck on this knife?" Luo Shi Zhengliang continued to shout.

As soon as the words were finished, some people in the crowd below immediately stared at the blade, as if they were looking at the bandit leader himself.

"But" Luo's Zhengliang finally responded when the people below him finally responded, and quickly struck while the iron was hot, "Just last night, the owner of the knife not only left it, but also was seriously injured and fled in panic."

"Buzz!" A commotion rang out below. Although the villagers of Daxi Village heard that the new lord had defeated the bandits, they did not know that the lord had defeated the murderous demon king, and they suddenly started to talk. The villagers of Xiaomu Village who witnessed the entire battle looked at their new lord with greater respect.

"Look at this place again." Luo Shi Zhengliang pulled out the too-blade knife. The sharp blade shone in the sun. The deep cold blade pointed directly at a pile of hills next to the high platform covered with thatch.

Luo Shi Zhengliang stepped down from the high platform and came to the next to the hill pile. Taidao picked up the thatch on the hill pile, and suddenly 12 people were piled up in piles of people. To be honest, Luo Shi Zhengliang wanted to vomit now, after all, the first time he was watching so many people's heads at such a close distance.

"Wow!" The crowd was infuriated. Everyone, including the uninformed villagers of Xiaomu Village, were really shocked. The visual effect of piled up people's heads was shocked.

"Did you see it?" Luo Shi Zhengliang suppressed his discomfort (although he killed several people last night, it was night, and the light was dark, so he didn't feel any problem, but now he is facing so many people directly, so he can't help but feel uncomfortable), "This is the bandit you are afraid of. But it's so wood in front of me."

After saying that, Luo Shi Zhengliang thought in his heart, "cut down". With a brush, Luo Shi Zhengliang's figure flashed past the edge of the platform. Two wooden pillars with a diameter of about 10 cm used to support the platform broke down in response to the sound. The platform suddenly lost its center of gravity and collapsed with a "boom".

"I, Masara Luo, as your lord, follow the will of Hachimanda Bodhisattva and as his envoy, come here to protect you." Masara Luo stood beside the collapsed platform, held up the Taibing Knife and shouted at the villagers in front of him.

The morning sun shone on him, and at this moment, Luo's Zhengliang seemed to exude charming glory, giving people a feeling of sacred majesty.

"Ah! God's Blessing!" Tsuda Hirosong, who had been explained in detail by Masara Luo, quickly shouted behind the crowd. In fact, Masara Luo found this bald man and was worried that he would not cooperate. Unexpectedly, he cooperated quite well and even proposed to make a statue of the God's Envoy from thatched wood. Masara Luo refused his suggestion with amusing, and then ran away as if he ran away. While running, he thought, "Oh, this guy wouldn't have been a monk before." Well, looking at his greasy bald head, this idea became even more certain.

"God's blessing! God's blessing!..." A large crowd fell to his knees.

Looking at the crowd kneeling in front of him, Masayoro Luo was very satisfied with the promotion effect this time. He looked up at Heiji Togo not far away and nodded slightly.

Heiji Togo immediately bowed and expressed his understanding, then walked towards the crowd, and began to continue to publicize the lord's achievements in the battle last night, and explained the new territory requirements to the lord according to the results of the morning assessment.

"Guozhi, you are familiar with the situation of several villages to the south, right?" Luo Shi Zhengliang turned around and asked Daxi Guozhi who was following behind him.

"Yes, Your Highness, I was born here and I am familiar with the situation around here and have exchanged grains with those villages several times," replied Daxi Kyuji.

"Well, bring five people with each of them, each with a bandit's head, and with a spear as a self-defense weapon, I went to these villages and told them that we were severely injured by the bandits, but the bandits would soon retaliate on a large scale. Tell them clearly that I will give them the identity of the official entrusting people and provide force protection."

"Yes, Your Highness, my subordinates understand." Osashi Kyuji seemed to have thought of something, his eyes lit up, and he quickly replied. After solemnly performing a retainer's courtesy again, he turned around and executed the order.

"Guangzong" Masara Luo looked at Hirozo Tsuda who was still excited about his performance just now and said, "How many swords and spears are there in the territory now?"

"Your Highness, 3 swords and 17 spears," Tsuda Hirosong replied quickly.

"Okay, Guangzong, gather all young and strong men over 15 years old to the plains in front of the village. According to their specialties, the weapons were distributed." After a moment of pondering, Luo's Zhengliang issued an order.
