Everyone looked toward the cave behind them, where there was a weathered rocky mountain covered with caves of all sizes, as if it were a natural dwelling place prepared by cave dwellers.
However, the place was inhabited by birds, and looking at these densely packed large birds, Lu Yuan felt a chill run down his spine.
Will we be attacked by these large birds if we live here?
Standing to the side, Chen Yan looked at the large birds, then picked up her tablet and entered a few keywords into it, finally finding information about the birds.
"Found them! These birds are called snow swallows. They usually like to build their nests on cliffs. These birds like to catch fish in the river and sometimes they will attack other creatures. Of course, they will only attack the dead, not the living!"
Next, Chen Yan showed everyone what Xueyan looked like on the tablet.
Lu Yuan glanced at the snow swallows on the computer screen, and then looked at the snow swallows in the nests. He immediately felt that they were exactly the same.
Aside from being tall, there was nothing else different. Then Lu Yuan saw a few more keywords below.
"Wow, so bird's nests are made from snow swallows. Could we be finding huge flocks of snow swallows here?"
Hei Zi had already picked up his binoculars. He reached out and glanced at the snow swallow's nest in the distance, a smug smile on his face: "I think we might be eating bird's nest until we're sick of it. It's covered in it, my goodness, there's so much of it, I reckon it must be measured in tons!"
After hearing this, everyone took out their binoculars and looked up. Sure enough, the surface was covered with all kinds of bird's nests.
Each piece of the bird's nest was several square meters in size. The sheer size of the bird's nest made everyone's heart skip a beat. Lu Yuan knew how expensive bird's nest used to be.
Those things are essential gifts for visiting relatives and friends during holidays, and the prices are very expensive, so most families simply can't afford them.
Moreover, this stuff is a very good supplement, and eating it has the effect of beautifying the skin and maintaining a youthful appearance.
Moreover, eating them regularly can have some positive effects on the body. After reading this, Lu Yuan smiled broadly and said, "In that case, why don't we live with these snow swallows? Maybe we can become neighbors and get some of their food!"
Everyone burst into laughter, and then drove over to them.
However, as soon as they arrived at their destination, the snow swallows seemed to sense the arrival of uninvited guests, and they flapped their wings and attacked the convoy.
Each of these snow swallows was much larger than those giant birds of prey, with a wingspan of about two meters. Each snow swallow had a very sharp beak and very sharp claws.
Every time they grab onto the roof, you can hear that teeth-grinding hissing sound. When they peck down, they can even chisel a hole through the metal roof.
Seeing this, Lu Yuan immediately grabbed his walkie-talkie and shouted to the group, "Retreat! Retreat! We can't go any further. It seems this place has been occupied by Xueyan. If we force our way through, something bad might happen!"
Frustrated, everyone drove their cars back.
After finally escaping the attack of the snow swallows, Lu Yuan and the others got out of the car to check it. Every car was riddled with holes from the snow swallows' pecking, and some windshields were even shattered.
"My goodness, these snow swallows are so ferocious! How are we going to catch them if this keeps up?"
"Yes, let alone bird's nest, we can't even find a place to stay. If these snow swallows fly over to anyone they see, it's no different from courting death!"
"What do we do now? We can't go now. We can't exactly live by the lake, can we? What if some wild beasts come and become interested in us? We're doomed!"
The crowd, who were just excited a moment ago, now looked dejected.
Snow Swallow doesn't want neighbors to live in her home. There's nothing she can do. If it were before the apocalypse, humans could simply not let Snow Swallow live there if they wanted to.
Now they've turned things around completely. If Xueyan doesn't give them a chance, they can't live there. This cave is a good place, but they don't have a chance to live there. What should they do?
Everyone fell into deep thought, but Lu Yuan suddenly had an idea: "You know, those unscrupulous merchants often used artificially cultivated bird's nests to impersonate wild bird's nests. How did they get their snow swallows?"
The one with the most authority to speak on this is, of course, Korean.
Before the apocalypse, she was probably the wealthiest person in the family. After pondering for a moment, she said, "Snow Swallows are very difficult to raise, but they are not that difficult to tame."
Because snow swallows are rather lazy and don't like to forage for food, if we provide them with some food, they might gradually become familiar with us. This is the most common method used by those who raise snow swallows!
Upon hearing this, Lu Yuan's eyes lit up, and he quickly picked up his computer to search for the encyclopedia he had created.
Sure enough, they found the method for raising snow swallows, which was similar to what Han Wen had described. Basically, it involved finding a suitable batch of snow swallows and then feeding them continuously.
During the feeding process, the snow swallows gradually develop a dependence on humans and slowly lose their habit of actively hunting for food. In the end, the snow swallows willingly become farmed animals for humans.
