The name Victoria was a rather common ship name.

But to the fishermen here, Victoria was the name of a ghost ship. Like the rumours surrounding the Bermuda Triangle, the legend about Victoria was strange, thrilling and terrifying.

Su Min asked again, “What’s your name?”

The newcomer answered: “Mu Yuan.”

It was a pretty good name. It wasn’t a name you would give to a passer-by cannon fodder. Apart from his dark skin, he was actually pretty handsome.

He drank a large mouthful of water and slowly recovered.

It was also Qin Mu Yin’s first time hearing about the ghost ship. He asked nervously, “Hurry and tell us about it.”

Mu Yuan recalled it for a moment and slowly started to speak: “In fact, I also don’t know if it’s true. It’s just something I heard from others, a little like a short story.”

In this story, Victoria was a ship that was built decades ago. At that time, it was considered a very luxurious ship.

In fact, even now it is very luxurious.

Victoria went out to sea not long after it was built but after a few days of sailing, the weather at sea suddenly changed. They guessed that Victoria may have encountered a storm at sea, and it later never returned.

Mu Yuan took another drink of water, “I heard that they were set to be out at sea for a month but in the end it never returned. It disappeared just like that.”

The technology at that time wasn’t advanced enough to search for traces of Victoria and the storm that time was also very strong so they felt that Victoria may have sunk, just like Titanic.

It resulted in a lot of commotion but as time went on, Victoria was gradually forgotten.

This continued until a dozen years ago where a rumour began to emerge.

Mu Yuan hesitated, “I don’t know where it started from, but it is said that Victoria had not sunk. Those who encountered storms at sea may be lucky enough to be rescued by the ship.”

As soon as he said that, the room went silent.

Wasn’t that rumour exactly the same as their current situation?

Xia He Yin began to tremble. It not for Qin Mu Yin’s support, she would have collapsed in fear, “And then? What happened after being rescued?”

Mu Yuan shook his head, “There are all kinds of speculations. Some say they are returned to shore, others say that they never return. There are also some who say that they remain on Victoria as an immortal being. I don’t know which is true.”

Legends have always been strange.

Su Min had a question, “If they can’t return, then how did this legend come about?”

Mu Yuan said: “Maybe someone made it up.”

In fact, their industry was a little superstitious. If they felt that it wasn’t auspicious, they wouldn’t go out to sea.

But he was young, and not very superstitious.

This time, he didn’t listen to his family and went out alone to sea. He then suddenly encountered a storm. The weather report clearly said that there wouldn’t be a storm.

And so, the current Mu Yuan was very regretful. If he had listened to his family, he wouldn’t have spent a day and night drifting at sea.

Xia He Yin said: “Then the ship we’re on………”
