After an unknown amount of time, the boat finally stopped swaying. The storm outside the cabin also stopped and everything became quiet. There was not a single sound, as if everything had stopped moving.

The surroundings were simply too quiet, so quiet that it gave people an inexplicable feeling of pressure. No one dared to make a single sound, as if they were afraid of destroying this peace.

Leng Jun and Zhu Qingyun were also infected by this silence. It was unknown when it had begun, but both of them unconsciously held their breaths. When the two of them felt like they were suffocating, they couldn't help but breathe heavily.

Leng Jun opened the lock on the cabin door, then opened the cabin door. After discovering that the storm outside had indeed stopped, Leng Jun leaned in and walked out of the cabin.

Outside the cabin, Leng Jun realized that even though the storm had stopped, the dark clouds in the sky had not dispersed. The surroundings were still shrouded in darkness and thick fog.

"Where is this place?" Why are there so many ships parked here? "

The one who spoke was Zhu Qingyun, who had followed Leng Jun out of the cabin, because she saw that countless boats were still docked around the boat they were on.

The first thing Leng Jun did when he walked out of the cabin door was to check the weather, so he didn't immediately notice anything in the surroundings. It was only after hearing Zhu Qingyun's words that he looked around and discovered that there were indeed countless ships docked in the dense fog.

The boats were all made of wood. Some of them were completely intact, and looked as if they had just been built. Some of them were in tatters, so much so that only a skeleton was left. Although these wooden boats were of different sizes, they all had one thing in common. They were always standing there motionlessly, and there were no signs of human or animal life on the boat.

These wooden boats were anchored on both sides of the boat that Leng Jun and the rest were on, and there was a water channel between them, which was just enough for Leng Jun and the boat that he was on to pass through.

However, the water surface of the waterway was extremely calm. It was so calm that it was like a mirror that didn't have the slightest ripple. It didn't seem like a scene that could appear on a sea at all.

However, Leng Jun was certain that the boat they were on was still slowly moving forward. Although they couldn't see much from the surface of the water channel, the surrounding wooden boats continued to 'walk' towards their backs, indicating that their boat was still moving forward.

At first, Zhu Qingyun was just curious, she kept on looking at the differences between each wooden boat, but she gradually noticed that something was different.

Zhu Qingyun couldn't help but take a few steps forward and stick to Leng Jun, and also firmly grabbed onto Leng Jun's sleeve. Then, she quietly asked: "Brother Jun, don't you feel that this place is filled with a ghastly and terrifying feeling? I suddenly feel very afraid."

Leng Jun grabbed Zhu Qingyun's hand, and after he shook it tightly, he said: "It's just a few boats, what's there to be afraid of?"

"I don't know either. I just feel weird. Oh right, Brother Jun, have you noticed that there's not even the slightest sound from the surroundings?

Hearing Zhu Qingyun say the word "ghost", Leng Jun suddenly had a flash of inspiration. He recalled hearing that there was a ghost island in the sea.

Ghost Island, no one had ever seen its true form. There were many legends about the Ghost Isle. The common point of many legends was that everyone who had been to the Ghost Isle had seen countless old ships after a storm, but no one had seen any humans or beasts. The water around the Ghost Isle was as smooth as a mirror, without any wind or waves. Furthermore, once they entered the Ghost Isle, all the compasses on the ship would fail.

Wasn't this scene the same as the ghost island from the legends? The Ghost Island also had another name, "Boat Burial." It meant that this was the ship's grave, but how did those who had spread the legend of the Ghost Isle get out of here?

None of the legends had told them how to leave the Ghost Isle. However, Leng Jun firmly believed that there must be a way to leave. Even though the compass on his ship was rotating unceasingly, he was still unable to pinpoint the exact direction.

Because the rudder had been broken off, there was no way to control the ship's direction. Leng Jun looked at the thick white fog in front of the boat and said: "It's a little cold here, let's go in the cabin. "Let it float. It will stop eventually anyway."

Leng Jun said this because he was afraid that Zhu Qingyun would be scared by the surrounding scene. Although the cabin was also silent, it wasn't as quiet as the abandoned ghost ships in the surroundings.

Zhu Qingyun naturally did not object, but it was not because she was afraid that she wanted to return to the cabin. It was because Leng Jun had said it, and she felt that no matter what Leng Jun said, she would be willing to listen.

Returning to the cabin, this time Zhu Qingyun did not return there. She finally found an excuse to grab onto Leng Jun's arm, how could she be willing to let go of him? Thus, the two of them sat down on a corner of the cabin door, leaning on the cabin wall.

On the deck, Zhu Qingyun had grabbed Leng Jun's arm and snuggled up against his shoulder. But when she returned to the cabin, Zhu Qingyun was still tightly grabbing onto his arm. After the two of them sat down, Zhu Qingyun actually tilted her head and leaned against his shoulder.

Zhu Qingyun was undoubtedly a beauty, and one that was unparalleled at that. Unlike Hong'er who was in the Light Smoke Hall, she was more like a fairy that had broken away from the mortal world. It made people yearn for her, but they didn't dare to lightly touch her.

But now, a celestial maiden had taken the initiative to approach him. How could this not move his heart? Leng Jun was no longer an ignorant teenager, and had already experienced the matters of the clouds and rain, causing Leng Jun's heart to surge even more.

He felt his heart beating faster and faster, and his body was getting hotter and hotter. Especially when he smelled the delicate fragrance that came from Zhu Qingyun's body, he almost couldn't control his own mind.

Leng Jun's consciousness was a bit blurry, his hands unconsciously moved, and he wanted to embrace Zhu Qingyun's shoulders. But just as his finger was about to touch Zhu Qingyun's shoulder, Leng Jun's heart had already jumped to the limit, as though it was about to jump out of his throat.

Just as Leng Jun's hand was about to touch Zhu Qingyun's body, the boat suddenly shook, and then it stopped.

Leng Jun's hand rested on Zhu Qingyun's shoulder as he wished, but his heart had already recovered its calmness due to the ship's trembling. He said, "The boat seems to have stopped. Let's go out and take a look. If we lean on other boats, we might be able to find some materials to repair the rudder. "
