Before the sun had risen to its highest point, Ziram touched the plains of Nokmurchi.

"Strange, how can there be so many people? What are they up to? ”

As far as the eye can see, villagers enthusiastically cut down trees with axes, and carpenters use saws to cut the wooden poles on the spot, and the villagers carry them to the west.

"When will there be an additional lumber yard here?"

Soon, Zilam noticed that Noxian soldiers in armor were standing guard next to the villagers, and the atmosphere between the two did not look like the relationship between the overseer and the slave.

How can an overseer help a slave?

There were some doubts in his heart, but Ziram didn't dare to act rashly, but only dared to lean between the trees from a distance, carefully observing everyone.

Soon, a pockmarked-faced little girl in armor and dressed as a soldier stood on a high place, shaking her thick braids and tearing out a slightly rough voice.

"Good job, everyone! It doesn't matter if you were a Mombian or a Demacian before, or even a wanderer, from now on you will all be the subjects of the Emerald Collar! It's Lord Leicester's people!

Mistress Leicester said it! As long as you are willing to contribute, you can exchange it for food and water! Those who want to settle in Emerald Collar can get involved in the construction of wooden houses in the West End! Participating workers can get priority residency! There are only 100 places available in the first phase! Seats are limited and available on a first-come, first-served basis! ”

Hearing the little girl's words, the working crowd was a little more commotionous and a little harder.

It was noon in a blink of an eye, and Ziram, who was lying in the bushes, had chapped lips and had been bitten by mosquitoes in several places, but he could not make up his mind.

"It's time for lunch! Let's put down the work in our hands first, don't worry, line up, everyone has it! ”

Carrying a bag of marijuana, a man with a strong physique followed the Noxian soldiers to the lumberyard.

The people who were working put down their work one after another, and lined up in front of the Noxian soldiers.

"One loaf of bread per person, half a pickled fish, if you want to drink water, you can go to the river and get it yourself, there is a crockpot here!"

If bread and half a pickled fish could endure it, when the Noxian soldiers spoke of water, Ziram could no longer endure it.

If the Noxians didn't have a crossbow, they might be able to run.

Thinking like this, Ziram got up from the ground and was about to touch the dagger to pass, but after hesitating, he still threw himself in the bushes, and walked slowly towards the crowd, ready to flee at any time.

"There's someone over there."

"See...... Feed! People over there! ”

Hearing the Noxian soldier call himself, Ziram froze in place, already turning sideways.

"Don't be afraid! I won't hurt you! ”

Following the strategy of dealing with refugees, the Noxian soldier took a loaf of wheat bread from his sack and looked at Ziram, who looked like a beggar.

"Do you want something to eat? For the first time, just register. ”

"Registration?"

Ziram was a little puzzled.

"It is to record your name and information through the parchment scroll, so that you are also the lord of the Emerald Collar, not only are you protected by the laws of the Emerald Collar, but you can also obtain food and shelter through work, this is a policy promulgated by Lord Leicester, and it cannot be faked."

Seeing that the Noxian soldiers had indeed not cut off their heads with weapons, Ziram slowly moved the letter suspiciously.

Such behavior, on the contrary, caused dissatisfaction among others.

"Hey! You guy! Is it a rat? Why are you so grinding? No one here can eat you! You're scared of a fart! ”

"Yes! Who doesn't know that the Emerald Collar under Lord Leicester is going to lose his head when fighting and killing, don't delay everyone's time, everyone is still waiting to get food to eat! If you stay one day late for one less house, how can you waste so much time"

"Don't be afraid, I used to be an outcast like you, Lord Lester of the Emerald Collar is very good, as long as you don't break the law, no one will hurt you......"

Hearing everyone say this, Ziram's vigilance has narrowed a lot.

He didn't believe the Noxian soldiers, but he was willing to believe the words of outcasts like himself.

"What's your name?"

Qi ...... Ramsay. ”

"Is Ziram right? Are you alone? Do you have a family? ”

"That's it...... I'm ...... alone."

"I see that you are spitting and spitting, not like telling the truth,

I really don't think there's any need to hide it from your family, because in the Emerald Collar, as long as you don't break the law, you won't be hurt in any way, and having a family can also allow you to integrate into the Emerald Collar faster. ”

Seeing the Noxian's extraordinarily serious expression, the trembling Ziram thought about it and decided to tell the truth.

"Actually, I have two daughters, they depend on me to live, and if I die, they will definitely die, so I hid them, I don't trust you, I don't know what you will do to my daughters, so I can't tell you what happened to them, please don't hurt me, please, I have to go back and take care of my daughter......"

Ziram fell to his knees in fear, and kept kowtowing to the Noxian soldiers, but everyone was stunned on the spot.

Originally, I thought it was a timid beggar and refugee.

However, it is not.

This is a great father who is willing to give up all his dignity for the sake of his daughter.

The contempt and ridicule in their eyes gradually disappeared, and there was more respect and shame in everyone's eyes.

This is the respect that a father, a true man deserves.

No one would laugh at a father who would kneel for his daughter, unless he was not a man, or an out-and-out animal.

"Hurry up, no one here can hurt you, I promise, whoever hurts you and your daughter will be the first to be spared!"

"Brother, my name is Mota, come to me directly if you have any trouble in the future......"

"Okay, I know everyone is a good person, don't scare this man with excessive enthusiasm."

The Noxus soldier personally helped Ziram up with both hands, and the sincere respect on his face made Ziram stunned.

It was a gaze he had never seen in Demacia, in Mombia, but now he saw, in the Emerald Collar.

The people here understood what they had done for their daughter, and they didn't laugh at themselves.

They identify with themselves.

Ziram suddenly felt very aggrieved, and the bridge of his nose was a little sore, but he held back.

The hard life has long taught him that tears are the most precious thing in this world, and the most worthless thing.

Precious is in your own eyes, and worthless is in the eyes of others.

The two people who felt that their tears were valuable had passed away long ago.

"I don't know who you really are, but you're a great father, I can see it."

The soldier of Noxus said in a deep voice.

"Well, I'll apply to my superiors to make an exception and use my head to vouch you that you're not a spy or that you're not here to cheat food.

On the record, I will first write that you have two daughters, and the daughter's name or other information will not be filled in for you first, you can live in the jade collar for a few days,

You'll pick up an extra double of food to bring home for your daughter, so you will have enough time to find out if the Emerald Collar is suitable for you, and you will no longer have to run around for your daughter's livelihood.

A week is enough time for you to think about whether or not to take your daughter to settle here. ”

Looking at the man who was already stunned in front of him, handing the registration scroll and quills to the tall man, the Noxian soldier gave Ziram a warm hug.

"Welcome to Emerald Collar, my friend Zilam."

"Woo woo wow wow !!!!"
