What does the wooden ghost mean in the national movement?

Ghosts in the Woods. In the official history, Sophora japonica is called the definition of wooden ghost. It comes from the dialogue between Jiang Taigong and King Wu. In the dialogue, Jiang Taigong said that Sophora japonica has the function of resisting gods.
