Douluo, my martial soul is a mushroom

Chapter 72 New Year, Return Gift

There is no concept of New Year in Douluo Continent. In the past 18 years, Chi Ping has spent 12 New Years in cultivation.

Now that his practice has been successful, Chi Ping suddenly feels that maybe he should give himself a holiday and celebrate the holidays.

His initial obsession in practicing was to go home, not for anything else, but because he couldn't find his own thoughts.

Although Chi Ping has developed ties and friendships in Douluo Continent over time, he still wants to go back and take a look. This time he is not doing anything else, just wanting to take a look, to fulfill his obsession. After watching, he will come back and continue to be the dean.

……

The first thing to do in the new year is to prepare new year goods. The Prince's Mansion naturally has its own food supply, but Chi Ping wants that feeling, and using what others prepare would be inferior.

On the twenty-fifth day of the twelfth lunar month, Chi Ping went to the vegetable market.

Although it had been a year, the performance of Shrek Academy was so amazing that Chi Ping didn't dare to bet whether anyone could recognize him, so he still maintained his disguise.

Fish, meat, vegetables, rice and noodles...

The national bumper harvest is not just about staple food, but also about various vegetables. The effect of Chiping mycelium is to improve the fertility of the soil, which is equivalent to making land that is not suitable for farming suitable for farming.

Whatever is planted on the transformed land will yield a good harvest, even if there is a natural disaster.

From morning to noon, Chi Ping left the vegetable market carrying packages of various sizes.

On the way back to the Prince's Mansion, Chi Ping suddenly felt some inquiring gazes.

"so troublesome!"

——If I had known, I wouldn’t have given that guy so many game design drawings.

The fighting dolls piqued Xue Qinghe's interest. After getting the design drawings, he went to the Soul Guide Workshop to make a batch of well-decorated products and opened a separate store.

After a series of marketing methods, fighting dolls began to become popular among the upper class of Tiandou. Of course, the largest purchase was still made by Tiandou College.

Boxing and kicking are also part of the soul master's ability. Fighting dolls can exercise soul power control and allow students to observe fighting from a third-party perspective. It is a good teaching aid.

Xue Qinghe not only made a fortune, but also made a small fortune.

Later, he asked Chi Ping to design several other types of game soul guides, such as tower defense strategy, military chess deduction, etc.

The income is considerable.

Xue Qinghe also took this opportunity to make friends with the families of many ministers.

then……

Then Chi Ping was targeted.

If the enemy can't do anything to Xue Qinghe, can't they do anything to Chi Ping?

It's just that Chi Ping has been staying in Qingzhu Garden, so they can't find an opportunity.

Chi Ping connected to the underground mycelium to sense the surrounding environment, and then found a blind spot for surveillance and changed his appearance to get rid of the tracking.

……

New Year's goods need to be processed after being brought home, such as fried fish, fried crispy pork, fried meatballs, steamed egg dumplings, steamed meat, steamed meatballs, braised pig's head, braised chicken feet... Meat must be made into such semi-finished products so that it can be preserved longer.

Chi Ping set up a small oil pan in Qingzhu Garden and closed the gate.

The tempting spicy aroma permeates the courtyard, making people drool.

"It's delicious!"

Xue Qinghe slipped into the yard at some point and picked up the fish pieces that Chi Pingsheng had put aside to drain the oil.

"Hmm... delicious!"

Chi Ping was stunned for a moment.

In the past, he did the same when his mother prepared fried food for the New Year.

"Go slowly, be careful of the heat."

Ikehira's voice became very gentle, as if he was deliberately imitating the tone in his memory.

"Ugh! Ugh!"

Seeing Xue Qinghe eating so hard that he couldn't even speak clearly, Chi Ping smiled with reminiscence.

Chi Ping's cooking skills were not that great, and Xue Qinghe was used to eating delicacies from land and sea, so after tasting something new, he stopped and sat aside to chat with Chi Ping.

"Is this the custom in your hometown?" Xue Qinghe asked curiously.

Ikehira shook his head and nodded again. "What does this mean?"

"I do not want to say."

"I thought we were friends and could talk about anything." Xue Qinghe showed a sad expression.

Chi Ping squinted his eyes with an expression that said, "Just pretend."

"Even friends have secrets they don't want to tell. Why are you here instead of taking care of business?"

"I smelled the aroma and came over to take a look. I didn't expect you to make delicious food behind my back."

"Dog nose!"

"You are facing the crown prince! Be careful or I will punish you!"

"That is the noble dog's nose."

"Then you are the mushroom man!"

"Dog nose!"

"Mushroom man!"

……

Chatting, laughing and playing around, before they knew it, Chi Ping had finished frying the food and put the small pot of stew on the fire.

Xue Qinghe took out two knives, a sword, a small shield and a belt from the storage soul guide and placed them on the small table where the fried food was placed.

"I took five soul guides from the royal treasury. According to you, they should all be level 6 soul guides. Take them and play with them!"

He waved his hand with great pride.

"Intact?" Chi Ping asked blankly.

"At least 80% new."

“So generous?”

Although he wanted to dismantle a few high-level soul guides, his plan was to buy soul guides that were about to be scrapped to dismantle. And he planned to dismantle more level 3 and level 4 soul guides first!
Level 6 soul guides are considered rare treasures. Does Xue Qinghe mean to let him dismantle them at will?
Chi Ping reminded him, "Once I take action, there will be no chance to regret. I can't guarantee that I can fight back with this kind of high-level soul guide."

Xue Qinghe said confidently, "There is no gain without hard work, this is my experience."

Chi Ping stretched out his hands and pulled these soul guides to his side, putting them into the storage soul guide.

"I will give you the results as soon as I get them."

Xue Qinghe looked at Chi Ping in surprise, "I thought you, a crazy researcher, would just tear it apart!"

"I don't want to move these days. I'll start working after the New Year is over."

"So this festival is called Chinese New Year!"

Chi Ping nodded and said sadly, "I am the only one who will celebrate this festival."

……

Since when, the slave business of Tiandou Auction House has been severely suppressed.

The crown prince personally took charge of the crackdown on the slave trade, determined to eradicate it completely. He even made a promise in court!
Somewhere in Tiandou City, several people in luxurious clothes sat around a round table.

"Who is it?"

The nobleman sitting in the first seat, with a blood-red ruby ​​on his hand, suppressed his anger.

For nearly half a year, every time the Tiandou Auction House received captured slaves, someone would notify Xue Qinghe and then catch the slaves red-handed.

No matter what method is used, false information, traps, bait, ambushes...

It's useless!
Xue Qinghe can always accurately find the location, time, and personnel configuration of the handover, allowing more and stronger subordinates to come and capture the people red-handed.

Ever since the great harvest across the country, more and more soul masters have come to join Xue Qinghe.

There are many independent soul masters. Most of them have poor backgrounds and rely on perseverance to turn things around. Their attachment to their hometown makes them unwilling to join soul master families and sects. Xueqing River has brought great harvests to the whole country, and there is a trend of thousands of ancestral temples. These independent soul masters will naturally come to join them. Not everyone will abandon their families. Family is the weak point of most people.

"Tell me, which of your men leaked the news?"

Everyone at the round table was silent. They couldn't figure out how the information was leaked, and everyone had suspicious eyes.

"I don't want there to be a next time. Find out who are your subordinates." The first person said coldly.
