The sky was dim.
Wu Heng and the maids had dinner together, then returned to their rooms to rest.
...
Late at night, at the port.
Under the bright lights, a huge cargo ship was docked.
Xi Ligui, accompanied by the association members, quickly boarded the ship. The vice-executive of the association led the way, saying, "This ship was found on the northern route of the small island. The crew is still present, but they are all somewhat mad, mentally unclear, and the ship's food and fresh water have nearly run out."
The group swiftly entered the ship's cabin.
As soon as they stepped in, a damp, foul smell hit them in the face.
It caused several people in the group to dry heave.
The cabin was lit by a few Illuminating Stones, and Xi Ligui looked inside to see a corner crammed with raggedly dressed crew members muttering incessantly.
Faintly, one could hear phrases like 'can't get out,' 'can't escape.'
