Whims of Celestial Fate

Rumors on Campus

Lin Xiaofan and his roommates thought that their secret cultivation of immortals in the dormitory was hidden enough, but for some reason, it was like growing wings. Gradually, some rumors spread in the school, and the more they spread, the more outrageous they became. Various strange and bizarre claims emerged.

At first, there were only a few classmates whispering in private, saying that the people in the 404 dormitory had been acting mysteriously lately, constantly stirring up unknown things in the dormitory at night, and often making strange noises. These rumors didn't attract much attention at first, after all, there were occasional small noises in the dormitory that everyone was used to, maybe just playing around or making some small inventions.

But as time goes by, rumors roll like a snowball, getting bigger and the content becomes increasingly absurd. Some classmates said that Lin Xiaofan and his team are practicing some cult techniques, and that they can always see strange lights shining in their dormitory at night, and occasionally hear some incomprehensible murmurs, just like the cult rituals portrayed in movies. Some people say they are conducting some kind of superpower experiment, hoping to obtain supernatural power through some crooked ways and then rule the campus, as if they have seen it with their own eyes and noses.

On this day, Lin Xiaofan and his roommates were walking down the campus path as usual, chatting and laughing as they headed towards the teaching building. However, they noticed that the eyes of the passing classmates around them were not quite right. Some were curious and curious, while others were faintly afraid. Some students even gathered together immediately after seeing them, whispering softly and occasionally pointing and whispering towards them.

Zhao Lei frowned and said with some confusion, "Fanzi, how do I feel that everyone looks at us with strange eyes? It seems like we have something strange growing on us. Are we exposing ourselves.

Lin Xiaofan also felt something was wrong in his heart, but he comforted him, "I don't think so. We're usually quite careful. It's probably their guesswork. Don't worry about them, let's go.

They didn't go far when they heard the voices of several classmates in front of them. One of them lowered his voice and said, "Hey, have you heard that those in Room 404 are practicing some cult martial arts? It's so scary at night, I dare not even approach their dormitory. What if they get cursed.

Another classmate quickly agreed, "Yes, yes, I heard about it too. They even said they wanted to create some superpowers and walk around school. I don't know if it's true or false, but it feels quite strange.

Upon hearing this, Lin Xiaofan and the others were immediately stunned, realizing that the rumors had already spread so badly and had been spread into such a disgraceful statement.

Sun Yu said angrily, "What is all this and what? We are clearly practicing normal cultivation, how could we become practicing cult techniques and conducting superpower experiments? This is too unfair, isn't it.

Wang Dahui also said angrily on the side, "Yeah, these people are so good at making up stories. We have to go explain to them and not let them talk like that.

Lin Xiaofan quickly grabbed Wang Dahui and said, "Dahui, don't act impulsively for now. If we go to explain now, it will only get darker and darker. Others may think we are just trying to argue. And we don't know where this matter came from. We need to figure out the situation first before we can talk about it

After listening, the roommates felt that Lin Xiaofan's words made sense, but they still held a wave of anger in their hearts, feeling helpless and angry.

After returning to the dormitory, everyone lost their good mood and sat on the bed one by one, frowning and thinking about how to deal with the increasingly outrageous rumors.

After thinking for a moment, Lin Xiaofan said, "I think we need to first look at the source and find out who spread the news about our cultivation, and even spread it like this. Maybe it was accidentally discovered by someone while we were practicing before, and they added fuel to the story.

Zhao Lei nodded and said, "Fanzi, you're right, but how can we find the source? There are so many people in this school, and we don't know where to start investigating.

After thinking for a moment, Lin Xiaofan said, "Let's start with the people around us and see if there are any suspicious people around our dormitory recently, or if anyone has asked us some strange questions.

So, the roommates began to recall, but after thinking about it, they didn't find any particularly obvious clues. After all, there were also many people coming and going in the dormitory hallway every day, and it was difficult to determine who leaked the news.

Just when everyone was at a loss, the dormitory door was suddenly knocked on. A few people looked at each other and their hearts skipped a beat. They didn't know who might be here now.

Lin Xiaofan stood up and went to open the door, only to find that it was the class monitor. The class monitor walked in with a serious expression and looked at them, saying, "Lin Xiaofan, what's going on in your dormitory lately? I've heard many classmates talking about you, saying that you're practicing some cult martial arts. This is not a joke. If this really happens, it's serious. You have to tell me the truth.

Lin Xiaofan quickly explained, "Class monitor, don't listen to their nonsense. We're not practicing any cult techniques. We're just playing around and having some hobbies. Those rumors are just groundless.

The class monitor frowned, obviously not believing what he was saying, and said, "What are you guys up to? This matter is causing quite a stir at school now, and the counselor has already heard about it. They will probably come to you soon to understand the situation. You'd better tell me the truth. If there is really a problem, we can solve it earlier. Don't wait until it gets big, then it won't be easy to end.

The roommates also gathered around one after another, explaining with various tongues that they were usually studying some traditional cultural health methods, but their movements and voices were a bit special and misunderstood by everyone. However, the class monitor still half believed and half doubted.

The class monitor looked at them and said earnestly, "Anyway, you must quickly find a way to calm this matter down. The school is very sensitive to this kind of thing now. If it is really identified as some bad behavior, it will have a huge impact on you. You should think about it yourself.

After speaking, the class monitor left the dormitory, leaving Lin Xiaofan and the others looking at each other, feeling even heavier in their hearts.

In the following days, this rumor not only did not subside, but also intensified. Some lower grade students even avoided them from afar, as if they were some kind of ferocious beast.

Lin Xiaofan and others also tried to explain to some classmates, but after each explanation, those classmates nodded on the surface, but behind their backs, they continued to spread those outrageous statements and didn't believe them at all.

Once, Lin Xiaofan was eating in the cafeteria when a few classmates at the table next to him started whispering and discussing.

Look, that's Lin Xiaofan from dormitory 404. I heard he took the lead in practicing cult techniques in the dormitory. He looks quite normal, how could he do such a thing.

Who knows, maybe people can't be judged by appearance. Anyway, we just need to stay away from him

As Lin Xiaofan listened to these words, he couldn't help feeling more aggrieved. He put down his chopsticks and walked up to the desks of his classmates, trying to be calm and say, "Classmates, don't say that. I really haven't practiced any cult techniques. Those are just rumors spread by others. We are studying some traditional cultural things in the dormitory and have been misunderstood by everyone. Can you stop spreading these rumors.

The students were first taken aback, then awkwardly said, "Oh, that's right. Maybe we misunderstood. Let's just keep quiet.

As soon as Lin Xiaofan turned around and walked back to his seat, he heard them whispering softly again, "Who knows if what he said is true, it's better to be careful.

Lin Xiaofan sighed helplessly, knowing that it might not be easy to explain this matter thoroughly.

On the school leadership side, they also began to pay attention to this matter. The counselor called Lin Xiaofan and the others to the office, asked them seriously what was going on, and even asked them to write a detailed explanation of all their activities in the dormitory.

Lin Xiaofan and the others could only grit their teeth and repeat the arguments they had previously thought of, but the counselor was obviously not satisfied. They felt that they had not told the truth and warned them that if similar situations were found again or if they were found to be engaged in any misconduct, the school would definitely take serious action.

After leaving the counselor's office, Lin Xiaofan said dejectedly to his roommates, "This is really troublesome now. The rumor is getting bigger and bigger, and the school is starting to take it seriously. We need to find a way to solve this problem quickly, otherwise we will really run out of options.

The roommates also looked worried and nodded in agreement, but they still had no idea how to solve this thorny problem. They only vaguely felt that a bigger storm was sweeping towards them, and they were somewhat powerless to resist.
