[Gintama] I am Teacher Songyang

More than three months after Gaoshan came back, Songyang received the bad news from Gui's servant.When Gui Wuzhi and his wife went out, they unfortunately encountered a bandit and died.

Songyang hurried to Edo with Yinshi and Gaoshan. In Gui Wuzhi's mansion, he saw two coffins and Gui who almost collapsed.Surrounding Gui was a group of strangers who didn't know who they were. Gui didn't respond to their words at all, but knelt in front of his parents' coffin expressionlessly.

Song Yang stepped forward to hug Gui, smelling the familiar breath, Gui came back to his senses and wept loudly in Song Yang's arms.

The arrival of Teacher Songyang seemed to reassure Gui and make him even more sad. Gui hadn't stopped crying for several days. Songyang gave him a slap and said sharply, "How long are you going to cry? Stand up, You have to avenge your parents!"

Behind him were Gintoki and Takasugi who had already picked up their swords.

The four of them wiped out the gang of bandits together, and they were somewhat injured. When bandaging the wound, Gui suddenly knelt down in front of Songyang and said, "Teacher, I will only have you in the future, please don't leave me again."

After avenging his parents, he seemed to have lost his sadness, like a pine tree after the wind and rain, steady and upright, but what was buried under his eyes was eternal still grief.Teacher Songyang is the only one that supports his strong belief now.

Song Yang gently caressed Gui's cheek, wiped away the blood on his face, and then rubbed his hair: "Of course, never."

The group of people who surrounded Gui before Songyang's arrival were relatives of his family, and they wanted to cheat or occupy Gui's family property when both of Gui's parents died.Song Yang frightened them away with just a few sword strikes, and the rest were the ones who really came to mourn Gui Wuzhi and his wife.

After the funeral was held for Gui's parents, everyone who had nothing to do with him left, except for an old lady who stayed.She is Gui Wuzhi's aunt. When she heard that her sister's son had an accident, she came to Edo to express her condolences and expressed her desire to adopt Gui.

"I will love Xiaotaro as much as my own grandson." She looked at Gui with kind eyes.

Gui shook his head and squeezed Songyang's hand tightly.

Songyang also shook his head: "Sorry, mother-in-law, Gui will live with me in the future, I promise, I will love him as much as my own child. If you miss Gui, I will let him visit you often."

"Okay!" The old lady showed a loving smile: "I can see that Xiaotaro also wants to live with you, so please leave this child to you."

Songyang helped Gui deal with his parents' funeral, and Songyang did not simply and rudely sell the property left by Gui Wuzhi.Although he has no business experience, he still tried his best to recall the modern enterprise management system, reorganized Gui Wuzhi's industry, and established a perfect enterprise system so that the company could operate normally even without an owner. Submit the business report to Gui for review every month.

This is the property that Gui Wuzhi left to his only son, and it is also the basis for Gui's future survival in society. Songyang will not let it go to waste.

After returning to the Matsushita private school for a long time, Gui showed his smile again.Although the loss of his parents made him very sad, but fortunately he still has Teacher Songyang, two brothers and friends.

This is his last, only shelter.

It was another new year, and Songyang led the students to make rice cakes as usual. His craftsmanship was still terrible, and the rice cakes turned into sticky things again, but the students ate the whole bowl happily.After sending all the students home, Songyang took Yinshi, Gaoshan, and Gui to sit in front of the stove table to watch the New Year together, still telling them various stories, and then unconsciously fell asleep under the stove table.

Before dawn the next morning, Songyang woke up from the heat.I don't know how these children slept. Obviously, the stove table has four directions, and they wanted to squeeze together with him, but there was no room for four people on one side of the stove table, so it turned into Gui lying on Songyang, Yin Shi and Yin Shi. Takasugi's sleeping position with one arm on his left and one on the right.

Songyang helplessly raised his numb arms, rubbed the three children's hair respectively, and kissed their foreheads: "Happy New Year!"

After waking up the children, they put on new clothes, and the four of them went to the temple to pray for blessings, and then wrote prayer cards together and hung them on the tree.The wind blew, and the prayer card was turned over. Songyang saw that the students wrote: I wish Teacher Songyang good health, and be with the teacher forever.

Songyang chuckled: "You don't need to ask God for this kind of wish, because I will never leave you. Ah, but you will graduate and get married in the future, but you will leave the teacher first! But no matter how far you go, the teacher They will be here watching over you."

Yinshi, Takasugi, and Gui also smiled: "So, this is our wish!"

They don't know what will happen in the future, but they all feel that no matter when, they will never be willing to leave Teacher Songyang.

After the New Year, it was spring again in a blink of an eye, and the village was bustling again, with passing merchants coming and going.According to the news brought by the merchants, the war against barbarians suspended due to the heavy snow started again, but the scale was much smaller. Many people with lofty ideals began to flee. When they lost, they even robbed ordinary people, leaving a bad reputation.

The people in the village only listened to the news. After so many years of fighting against the barbarians, the village has not been affected except for the occasional army passing by. It sounds like something far away, and no one cares about it.

But one night, the village head suddenly knocked on the door of the Matsushita private school, called Songyang to the field, and said to him worriedly: "Mr. I heard about Mr. Songyang. You know, people in the village were not prepared, so they probably said a lot of things. I just heard from the villagers. I don’t know if it will cause trouble for Mr. Songyang, so I came here to inform you. "

Song Yang frowned: "When did those people leave?"

"Uh, it seems to be in the afternoon, and he said he left in a hurry."

"Oops..." Songyang rubbed his forehead and said to the village chief, "Village chief, after you go back, order the villagers not to come out tonight no matter what happens outside."

"Mr. Songyang, is there anything we can do to help?" the village head asked.

"Thank you, it's okay." Songyang smiled and comforted him: "They are my friends from the past."

However, it is only "in the past". It would be fine if they reported their news to the army of people with lofty ideals. I'm afraid...

Because the village chief often asked Teacher Songyang for advice, the three of Yinshi did not follow. They were writing homework assigned by Teacher Songyang in the living room, but saw the teacher returning with a serious face.The three immediately dropped their pens and ran up: "Teacher, what's wrong?"

Song Yang looked at the three children in front of him, leaned over and hugged them in turn: "Can I ask you one thing?"

Yinshi, Gao Shan, and Gui looked at each other and nodded seriously: "Teacher, just say it."

"Help me hide the jewel box."

"what?"

Only a part of the gold, silver and jewels that Songyang had snatched from Pu Tian had been exchanged for money, and the rest had hardly been touched at all.He pushed the box to Takasugi and said, "Please, hide it in a place that only you know."

But the three of them didn't move, they knelt down in front of Songyang, and asked seriously: "Teacher, before that, please tell us what happened!"

Songyang showed a helpless expression: "Okay, you guys hide the box first, and I will tell you when I come back."

After the teacher said so, the three of them could only obediently leave with the box in their arms.Feeling that something was wrong with the teacher, the three quickly dug a hole in the woods, buried the box in it, and hurried back to the private school.When they walked halfway, they were suddenly hooked by a trap that appeared in the woods at an unknown time, and the three of them were hung on the tree by the entangled rope.

"What's going on? How could there be a trap... Teacher?!" The struggling three showed expressions of astonishment when they saw Teacher Songyang appearing under the tree.

"Sorry, I lied to you." Songyang smiled: "This is the first and last time, so forgive the teacher!"

"Teacher!" Gao Shan ignored the tighter and tighter rope, struggling hard: "What happened?"

He wasn't worried that the teacher would hurt them, and he guessed in an instant that something serious must have happened, that's why the teacher wanted to trap them here.

"Let's make a promise!" Songyang tilted his head, still smiling: "If one day, we separate, we will meet in Kabukicho in Edo. No matter what time, I will go to you, or always I'm waiting for you to come find me."

"Teacher, teacher, what happened?" Yinshi and Gui also called out.

The teacher's expression was really strange, as if they were going to say goodbye forever.

"Don't worry, I'm just taking precautions." Songyang smiled and waved his hands: "Maybe some old friends will come to see me, I don't want them to see you...and, again, please, if I leave, don't come Find me. After everything is over, I will go to Kabukicho to find you."

Ignoring the shouts of the children behind him, Songyang turned and left.The news came too late, and it was too late to escape now.It would be fine if the person who came was an anti-barbarian patriot, at most he would be forcibly drawn into the army, and after everything was over, he would go to Kabukicho to find the children as agreed.But even if it's friendly, Songyang doesn't want those people to discover his students, not to mention that the ones who come may be enemies, so it's better to hide the students.

Sitting in the Japanese room, quietly wiping the blade, Songyang looked at the photo on the table.It was a family portrait taken together in the temple during Chinese New Year. I still remember that the students’ wish was to "be with the teacher forever", and I also promised that I would never leave them.

I didn't expect that I would break my promise so soon.

Songyang lowered his eyes: "I'm sorry, I promised to give you a home, I'm sorry, I'm sorry..."

In the silent night, the sound of small footsteps was particularly obvious, accompanied by the sound of weapons striking.Songyang got up, looked at the photos of the children again, and opened the courtyard door with a knife.

Outside the door, a group of people wearing bamboo hats, black monk clothes, and staffs surrounded his yard.Songyang sighed, this is the worst situation he expected.

Even if it is the shogunate, there is still a chance, but it is the elite troops of heaven and man, the heaven and earth.

The author has something to say: about the life experiences of Takasugi and Gui.

In the comics, Takasugi is the son of a lower-level samurai, but he is very good, and he doesn't flatter the son of a superior samurai. In the end, his father and son were severed by his family.

Gui is a child of a commoner family and lives with his mother-in-law. After her mother-in-law passed away, he entered the martial arts gymnasium as a special student to study.

So these two chapters can be regarded as rounding up the life experience of the two of them a little bit.

Also, I abuse students, psychologically, Teacher Songyang is still very safe.
