Chapter 39: The Ancestral House
Hammers and butcher knives!
Enzo followed the three of them into the ancestral home of the Lin Qi family. Enzo had been curious about Linzi for three whole years. What kind of family can cultivate a superb like Lin Qi?
Enzo couldn't help but recall the first time he met with Lin Qi three years ago, when he was coerced by the Knights of the Round Table, and four members of the Knights of the Round Table besieged Enzo and forced him to join the Knights of the Round Table. Knowing that the leader of the Knights of the Round Table Dark Horse House has a deep background, Enzo, who is unwilling to turn against them, was defeated by four swordsmen who were not as strong as himself, and was stabbed in more than a dozen places.
Just when Enzo was about to be unable to resist, Lin Qi suddenly appeared with several big men with five big and three thick faces and hideous faces, and they smashed the heads of the four swordsmen from behind with the bricks they had just drawn from the alley wall, and then knocked the four swordsmen unconscious with iron-clad oak sticks, and finally used wooden sticks to beat their wrists and elbow joints into dark wounds.
From then on, those four people could no longer use swords, and they could barely cope with ordinary work, but once they used swords, their wrists and elbows that had been injured were bound to make their swords messy. But the four Army Academy cadets who couldn't use the sword, who joined the army after graduation, also became waste.
Lin Qi's decisiveness, ruthlessness, and ruthlessness made Enzo remember it vividly.
Today he finally came to Lin Qi's house, and he was very curious about what kind of family and what kind of parents could cultivate people like Lin Qi. At the age of fifteen, he formed a student gang like the Iron Fist Brotherhood in the university town of Berelli, and it has grown all the way, and now there are more than 300 thugs on the periphery, is this something that ordinary people can do and can do?
How can the children of ordinary civilian families who follow the rules do such a thing?
The ancestral home of the Lin Qi family gives people an unusually deep and stable feeling. In front of the ancestral house is a huge courtyard, almost the size of forty or fifty acres. The floor of the courtyard, if Enzo is not mistaken, is paved with black volcanic steel rock that has solidified with extremely solid volcanic lava.
Black volcanic steel rock refers to a volcanic rock with more than 70% metal content in lava. This rock is extremely hard and has a strong defense against all spells except lightning spells. Mining this rock is extremely difficult, and ordinary workers risk their lives to mine up to two or three cubic meters of black volcanic steel in a year.
Extremely hard, and extremely tough, the black volcanic steel rock is carved into a meter square of heavy tiles and laid on the ground. Between the floor tiles and the floor tiles, there are complex tenons connected to each other, so that the ground of the courtyard is integrated. To Enzo's horror, there was a faint metallic sheen in the gaps between the tiles, apparently a metal solution had been poured between the tiles to make the ground stronger.
The cost of the ground in this courtyard is already extremely staggering, but the walls of the courtyard are also terrifying.
In the eyes of ordinary people, the wall of this house is just an ordinary gable, but it is only three meters higher than the gable of ordinary people. But in the eyes of Enzo, a top student at the Army Academy, the gable of this courtyard is covered by dense creeper vines, and it is afraid that it is a small city wall. From the outside, the wall looks ordinary, but it should be wide enough for four people walking side by side. Moreover, there are arrow holes blocked with bricks, lookout holes, anti-arrow wall stacks, and various other preventive measures.
But these fortifications are covered by dense creeper vines, and it seems that these murderous military installations are not harmful at all.
And the material of this wall is the same as the ground of the courtyard, it is made of black volcanic steel stone, and the wall bricks are watered with metal solution, this wall is completely an indestructible piece of metal, unless it is the main field army of the empire carrying heavy siege equipment to besiege, otherwise the army of 10,000 people can not help this circle of courtyard wall.
Thinking back to what he had just seen outside the mansion, the thickness of the snow under the walls outside the mansion was very problematic, Enzo suddenly remembered the common defensive structure of the 'moat'. There must be a moat outside Lin Qi's ancestral house, and the width will not be small, at least more than five meters.
Let's take a look at the two rows of annexes in the ancestral house, which are very far apart and are used for the servants to live. The blackened annex building is obviously made of the same material as the courtyard walls and the courtyard floor. The two rows of annexes are crooked, as if the builders had not stacked the walls of the annexes neatly when they were building them. However, if there is an attack by a foreign enemy, if the enemy rushes into the courtyard, these two rows of nearly 100-meter-long auxiliary buildings are two spiny 'bastions'.
Look at the narrow windows of the building, and the steel bars the thickness of a child's arm fixed in the window frames, which clearly served as the shooting ports for crossbowmen.
What made Enzo even more speechless was that near the left side of the two annexes, there were stables, granaries, small mills, and all kinds of living facilities that a large family should have. But these facilities are all made of black volcanic steelstone, and they are built exactly according to the rules of a military fortress.
And there is also a circle of walls in the courtyard, and within this circle of walls stands the main fort of the Lin Qi family. The tallest watchtower is nearly 100 meters high, and there are more than a dozen 'decorative' minarets around it, but the main fort can be used as an 'arrow tower' in wartime.
This main fort covers a vast area, and from the outside, the main structure of the main structure has six floors enough to accommodate two or three thousand people to live within, and in the event of any turmoil, this main fort is certainly enough to accommodate two or three thousand people to 'fight for a long time'.
It must be a protracted battle, because around this main fort, twenty-four deep wells have been drilled in a circle!
Enzo's fingers were numb when he saw it, even in the Imperial Army's drill code, the first-line defense fort only required three deep wells to provide water source, and the ancestors of the Lin Qi family really took precautions, and actually drilled a circle of twenty-four deep wells, which was eight times the specifications required by the Imperial Army drill code!
Enzo subconsciously glanced at Lin Qi, but Lin Qi was muttering about his wonderful experience in the past three years with the hammer and butcher knife. The hammer and the butcher's knife listened to Lin Qi's muttering with an almost 'innocent' smile, and the smile on his face was actually full of a kind of 'love' and 'care'?
How could these two thugs be such 'loving' and 'caring'? Enzo couldn't help but feel a numb scalp.
Everyone kept approaching the main fort of Lin Qi's house, and there were more people around. But these people are all strong men who blow their noses and stare at their arms and have the thickness of ordinary people's thighs, and even a few old men who feed horses, their faces are full of scars, and their faces are hideous and ugly to the extreme.
Even a few servant women who came out of the cowshed with milk buckets were wearing only a short shirt in the winter, and their exposed arms were full of knotted muscles!
Enzo suddenly realized that such a family can cultivate a superb character like Lin Qi!
