30 The Five Freaks (1/2)
”Don't you know anything about the freak dormitory?” Wang Yuan's eyes were wide open, staring at Mo Wen unbelievably.
”No. Tell me, what's so special about that dormitory to the point that it makes you jump?”
Obviously, Mo Wen knew something was off about that dormitory, but it seemed that Wang Yuan knew something that he didn't.
Upon listening to Mo Wen's response, Wang Yuan almost fell on his face; his gaze conveyed pity towards Mo Wen's ignorance.
”Oh my god! I have no idea how you are surviving.”
”That dormitory is the infamous Freak Dormitory of Hua Xia University. It is said that it has over a hundred years of history and is in the special area of the living quarters. Only freaks live in there. Normal people would never set foot in that dormitory. Those who can go to the dormitory are surely freaks.”
Wang Yuan looked at Mo Wen as though he was looking at an alien; he was even doubting whether or not Mo Wen was fooling him.
”Freak?” Mo Wen stroked his chin, recalling the ugly teen named Ren Liusha. In comparison to normal people, he was indeed a freak.
”Exactly. I heard people said that a long, long time ago, Hua Xia University had set aside that area as a special area. Those who stayed in that residential building were people who were antisocial and freaks that couldn't live together with other normal people. But in recent years, an odd phenomenon had occurred. To everyone's surprise, the only five people in that residential building stayed in the same dormitory. For the previous cohorts, it had almost always been one person staying in one dormitory.”
Mo Wen nodded. Indeed, there were five people staying in his dormitory. Other than his dormitory, the other dormitories in that residential building were all empty.
”Do you know the rumors about the Five Freaks of Hua Xia University?” Suddenly, Wang Yuan asked furtively while getting closer to Mo Wen.
”I don't know.”
Mo Wen shook his head as Wang Yuan wished, satisfying his vanity of gossiping.
”The legendary Five Freaks of Hua Xia University are the five freaks living in that dormitory. Their fame is beyond those who are on the list of Campus Beauties and College Hunks. Almost everyone in Hua Xia University knows about them. Secretly we call them the Eastern Heretic, the Western Poisoner, the Southern Ghost, the Northern Devil, and the Central Transvestite.”
”The Eastern Heretic, the Western Poisoner, the Southern Ghost, the Northern Devil, and the Central Transvestite?” Mo Wen's lips twitched; he shook his head in amusement.
”Exactly. Don't belittle them. They are figures whom nobody in the whole Hua Xia University dare to mess with. According to one of my friends, they are all very powerful ancient martial arts practitioners. Their cultivation is deep and unpredictable. Their personalities are strange and they are temperamental, but their abilities are incredible.”
Seeing that Mo Wen wasn't concerned about it, Wang Yuan rolled his eyes.
Mo Wen pays no regard to the infamous Five Freaks only because he is courageous with little wit. He has no idea that Hua Xia University is a place with crouching tigers and hidden dragons. People who have managed to make a name for themselves in Hua Xia University were definitely not normal people.
Regarding this, Mo Wen nodded in agreement
”They are all indeed ancient martial arts practitioners.”
Ren Liusha was an expert in Insect Rearing technique. Someone with such amazing Insect Rearing techniques would naturally have an equally amazing Inner Qi.
But exactly which level of cultivation was Ren Liusha at, Mo Wen had no clue. After all, his cultivation now was weaker than Ren Liusha's, so naturally he couldn't tell.
”Are you really staying in that freak dormitory?” Wang Yuan asked doubtfully.
Mo Wen didn't even know about the Five Freaks of Hua Xia University. How was it possible for him to be staying in it then?
Mo Wen shrugged his shoulders and didn't comment further.
”It's enough for you to tell me this. Don't tell the others. Or else you would be making a fool of yourself.”
Wang Yuan rolled his eyes. Seeing that Mo Wen remained silent, he naturally thought that Mo Wen was lying to him. Even though Mo Wen was also an ancient martial arts practitioner, he was way below the Five Freaks. His friend was also an ancient martial arts practitioner at the Regulated Breathing realm, but when he spoke of the Five Freaks, his face would turn as white as a sheet.
He knew how scary the freak dormitory was. It was said that the dormitory was packed with malicious ghosts. The Yin Qi [1] in the dormitory was high; normal people would get sick from spending a night in the dormitory. It was also said that the Southern Ghost's room was filled with many dead bodies; he surrounded himself with the dead.
As for the Northern Devil, he was a savage killer. His room displayed all kinds of human organs; some were immersed in solution, some were stored in containers while some were just laying bare on the ground. It was said that the organs came from people that he had killed with his own hands. One could smell the blood and gore off him from five meters away.
But according to legend, the scariest person was the Transvestite. It seemed like the other four Freaks were fearful of him too. As to why that was the case, Wang Yuan had no clue.
Even hearing stories of the freak dormitory was enough to give someone the creeps, let alone staying in there. If Mo Wen was really staying in that freak dormitory, how could he still be alive for military training now? Anyway, Wang Yuan didn't believe him at all.
