One night, an ocean-going scientific research ship sank mysteriously in the open sea. The survivors claimed that they saw a "strange ship" from hundreds of years ago at sea at the time of the incident. The absurd and bizarre testimony left the police at a loss.
At midnight another day, Chen Boren, an authoritative professor of history in Yingzhou, suffered a heart attack and died in the archives. Before he died, he deliberately put his body into a strange posture and left an elusive message next to him. This attracted the attention of the female police officer Pei Susan (female number one) who handled the case, so she tried to find Professor Chen's student Lin Yue (male number one) and teamed up with her friend Xiao Minghui (male number two) to find out the truth.
After investigation by the three people, they suspected that Professor Chen was looking for a secret that had been sealed for hundreds of years, a secret that could shock the world...
Ming Dynasty visions, strange shipwrecks, cross stars, bizarre murders, family secrets... What is the connection between all these? What bizarre events happened more than 300 years ago? Is there a mysterious figure behind the scenes? What is the fate of Lin Yue and his companions?
