My cemetery is connected to the game world.

The next morning, Helot came out of the room, stretching his back. The snow outside had stopped.

It’s a rare sunny day in the freezing season.

"Master, good morning!" The slave stood at the door, presenting a folded blanket with both hands.

"Here you go..." Helot took a deep breath of cool air, walked towards the dining hall, and asked the slave who followed him, "What's your name?"

The slave draped the blanket over his shoulders: "My name is York Red, Master."

Helot strode forward, extended his hand to greet the watchmen he met, and continued to question the slaves: "I clearly gave you freedom, why are you still following me? And why are you shackled again?"

"I want to find my wife. So I have to live, and live well."

Helot looked at York Red. According to his current physical condition, it would be difficult for him to survive this freezing season alone. If he ran around in Snow City, he would most likely be knocked unconscious and then sold to a slave trader.

What will the next owner be like?

It is an unknown.

"You have some brains." Helot continued walking and asked again: "Is your wife still alive?"

"I don't know!" York Hong said frustratedly, "Our village was attacked, and she and I were separated. I was sold as a slave, and she should...should have become another man's woman."

Helott observed a moment of silence for York Red.

In northern Xinjiang, women are resources who can give birth to the next generation for the village, so that the village can remain strong.

"Why are you still looking for her? Can you give her a better life?"

"I..." York Hong didn't know how to answer, so she could only say, "I just want to see her again and know that she is still alive."

Helot smiled and said, "I'll help you find her."

York Hong asked in disbelief: "Really? Master! Do you have a way to find her?"

Helot said confidently: "It is the freezing season now, and most of the population of the entire Northern Frontier is concentrated near Snow City. After breakfast, I will take you to find the slave trader and ask who sold you to him. And I also know another merchant who does business with many villages in the Northern Frontier."

Just now, Helot was still thinking of an excuse to find Usman and check the source of the mechanical parts in his hands.

Now the excuse is there.

"Thank you, Master. As long as I can see her, I will have no regrets even if I die immediately."

"If you follow me, you will most likely not survive this freezing season..."

Helot suddenly stopped, because a team of watchmen wearing exquisite fur coats stopped him: "Excuse me, are you the Bone Crusher?"

Helot answered: "It's me. Who are you? What's the matter?"

The other party bowed and replied, "We are the followers of Master Panier Skovo. The master was very sorry that he did not see you last night, so he sent us early in the morning to invite the master to enjoy breakfast together."

Helot didn't reply first, but gave York Red a silver coin: "Go to the dining hall and buy everything you like."

"Yes, master!" York Hong took the coins and ran to the dining hall.

Then Helot said to the captain of Panier's entourage: "Please apologize to your master for me. I have an important matter to do this morning and cannot share breakfast with him.

But I have time at noon, if your master also has time at noon, we can have lunch together."

The captain of the entourage did not expect that his young master's request would be rejected again, so his actions and expressions were no longer polite.

"Master Bonebreaker, what could be more important than my young master's summons?"

Helot smiled and said, "Just now it was 'please', how come it has become 'summon'? I think you'd better go back and ask clearly, so that I don't misunderstand what Master Panier wants to express."

The captain of the entourage was stunned.

Master Paniel sent me to invite the Bone Crusher, but I changed it to "summon" without authorization, which made the meaning very different.

But if it is a “please”, the other party can indeed refuse.

Just when the captain of the entourage was at a loss, York Red came back with a big bag and said happily, "Master, I bought a lot of meat and sausages."

"Eat them all to make your body stronger." Helot gave the order: "When I go to the polar plateau, there are many things for you to carry."

"Yes, master." York Red grabbed a sausage and took big bites of it.

Helot ignored the captain of the entourage and walked towards the castle gate.

In the restaurant of the main castle, Panier, dressed in formal attire, sat at the main seat, waiting for the guests to arrive. The food on the table was even more abundant than the usual lunch. The waiter next to him kept an eye on the temperature of the dishes, and if they got cold, he would take them away and redo them.

After a while, the captain of the entourage came in hurriedly and said indignantly: "Master, that wild mage has rejected your invitation again. This is an extremely arrogant guy, and he should pay the price for humiliating you!"

Panier, who was rejected twice, did not show any change in expression. He was silent for a while before asking, "Did he say why he didn't come?"

"He didn't say anything. He just said he had something to do and left the castle." The captain of the entourage paused and added, "He said he has time at noon and can share lunch with you."

Paniel smiled. "Look, the Bonebreaker didn't reject me. He just had more important things to do. Didn't he arrange to meet me at noon? Let's wait until noon."

Let the people outside come in, let's eat all the food together, it's shameful to waste food during the freezing season."

"Master, you are a man of noble character. Thank you for your gift."

The attendant called everyone else in, and they feasted around the dining table with Panier.

Helot came out of the snow castle and found the slave trader from yesterday. The slave trader was so scared that he thought he was coming to return the goods.

Only after Helot explained the reason did the slave trader breathe a sigh of relief.

"I have never met anyone who would ask about the origins of slaves... I am a principled businessman and cannot disclose the identity of the owner of the goods at will."

Helot took out a silver coin and said, "I also have my principles. If I can't get the information with one silver coin, I will ask somewhere else. I think someone is willing to tell me which northern border villages your goods come from."

The slave trader reached out and snatched the silver coin. "It's from the Tribulus Wild Boar Village! They sold this slave to me during the last freezing season. Whenever the freezing season is about to begin, the Tribulus Wild Boar Village will attack some small villages to rob supplies, and then sell the robbed slaves to me when they migrate to the vicinity of Snow City to spend the winter."

"Where is the winter camp of the Tribulus Boar Village?"

"I don't know... I really don't know. They always bring slaves to me."

Helot took out another silver coin and said, "I'll ask you another question. Where is the underground fire in Snow City or near Snow City?"

The slave trader asked curiously, "Why do you ask this question?"

Helot casually performed a fire magic trick: "I am a fire magician, and I want to find a place where fire elements are active to absorb elemental energy. Once we reach the polar plateau, it will not be easy to find a place where fire elements are active."
