Douluo: What the hell is the academic master development system?

Chapter 10 Old Blue Star People Are Afraid of Poverty
At this time, the sun had already set, and Chen Ping didn't dare to wander around outside at night.

After walking along the official road for a while, Chen Ping found a leeward slope. He first collected firewood and lit a small bonfire.

Afterwards, Chen Ping took out a handful of powder from the paper bag in his backpack, took out a small pinch and threw it into the campfire to light it, and mixed the rest with water and sprinkled it in his resting area.

This is the dried feces powder of a thousand-year-old soul beast that Chen Ping spent a lot of money to buy. He has now reached the warning area of ​​the Star Dou Forest at most and has not yet entered the outer area of ​​the Star Dou Forest.

Using the feces of a thousand-year-old soul beast is enough to scare away any younger soul beasts that might accidentally stumble into your vicinity.

Just as animals can use urine to mark their territory, the feces powder of high-aged soul beasts has the same effect.

Whether it is burned or added with water, the originally thin smell after drying will be released again.

This is also the reason why Chen Ping dared to start the fire.

Although Yu Xiaogang's theory of the competition among the ten martial spirits was basically wrong, fortunately, some common sense that was not within the framework of this theory was still well explained.

For example, you cannot light a fire in the Star Dou Great Forest.

Although most soul beasts are afraid of fire, there are also a small number of soul beasts that like fire very much, and most of these soul beasts are deadly.

Of course, if you must light a fire like Chen Ping, it is best to find someone to buy a piece of dried soul beast feces that is at least a thousand years old, throw some of it into the fire, and mix some with water and sprinkle it on the ground.

In this way, as long as you don't enter the mixing zone casually, you generally won't encounter any danger even if you light a fire in the outer area.

Even if you encounter a dangerous soul beast with fire attribute, it will hide away with its tail between its legs as soon as it smells the feces of a thousand-year-old soul beast.

Taking out a piece of tattered linen blanket from the backpack, Chen Ping wrapped the blanket around himself comfortably, leaned against the leeward slope, warmed himself by the fire, and squinted his eyes in comfort.

The main reason why Chen Ping wanted to light the fire was that he was not used to the darkness of Douluo Continent.

Once the sun sets, the whole world seems to lose all light sources in an instant. If it is a sunny day, it would be okay, at least there is a bright moon and stars in the sky.

But today is unlucky, it is cloudy.

It was so dark that you couldn't see your hand in front of you. There were no warm incandescent lights at home, no street lights roaming on the city streets, and no dazzling neon lights in the city.

There is only darkness, cold, and silence.

This kind of environment is simply a curse for Chen Ping, and it is also the "pretentiousness" that he still retains even after arriving in Douluo Continent.

At night, there should be at least some light around you, even if it's just a little bit. This kind of darkness where you can't see your fingers when you stretch out your hand is really too outrageous.

There are many things that we only realize how indispensable they are after we lose them.

After baking a few cold and hard scones, the original aroma of the scones immediately emerged and went straight into Chen Ping's nose.

Chen Ping slept soundly until dawn after finishing several pancakes weighing one pound each, drinking the light salt water he had used to replenish his strength.

The jade rabbit falls in the west and the golden crow rises in the east.

When the first ray of sunlight shone on Chen Ping, he woke up quickly.

This was one of the few nights when he gave up meditation and chose to sleep. Even if he just curled up and dozed off all night, it still counted as a night's sleep.

They were about to enter the Star Forest, and meditation was an extremely private matter. Unless absolutely necessary, Chen Ping would not dare to meditate in the wilderness.

After all, he had already touched the threshold of sports meditation and could seize the time to practice during the day.

In this case, the benefits and risks of a night of meditation in the wild are not proportional.

Thanks to the Soul Hunter, Chen Ping finally got a good night's sleep and felt refreshed. "This brand of soul beast feces is quite effective. It's much cheaper than other brands of thousand-year-old soul beast feces, but the effect is just as good."

After not being harassed by wild beasts or soul beasts all night, Chen Ping couldn't help but nod his head in satisfaction. It seems that cheap things are not necessarily bad.

Chen Ping is not a person who likes to get a bargain. The price of thousand-year-old soul beast feces powder on the market is generally ten gold soul coins per pound.

The price of feces from predators like bears, tigers, and lions is several times higher, sometimes as high as thirty or fifty gold soul coins per pound.

And the soul beast feces powder he bought only cost three gold soul coins per pound!

It was such a cheap price. If he hadn't used his academic points to check and confirm that it was indeed the feces of a thousand-year-old soul beast, he really wouldn't have dared to buy it.

Although he wasn't sure whether the stall owner was crazy or not to sell the soul beast feces powder so cheaply, Chen Ping still happily bought three kilograms of it.

If you use it sparingly, one pound of soul beast feces powder is enough for Chen Ping to wander around the Star Dou Forest for more than a month. The remaining two pounds are bought by Chen Ping for reselling because he thinks it is really cheap.

With such cheap powder, he can make a lot of money by reselling it.

As Chen Ping has making money engraved deep in his genes, he naturally would not miss such an opportunity to make money.

The old people from Blue Star are afraid of being poor and dare not earn less than a penny.

Not long after walking forward, a wooden sign on the side of the road caught Chen Ping's attention.

"Fifty miles ahead we will enter the Star Dou Forest. There are soul beasts in and out. Please pay attention to safety."

Not long after walking, a nimble black shadow flashed on the treetop in front of Chen Ping and disappeared at the end of the treetop.

Seeing this, Chen Ping's heart suddenly jumped and his brain started working rapidly.

As everyone knows, when Huo Gua entered the Star Dou Forest, he also encountered such a signboard fifty miles away from the Star Dou Forest.

Then Huo Gua continued to move forward and met the God-killer Wind Baboon.

Considering the black shadow on the treetop just now, Chen Ping turned around and left without saying a word.

This road is not an option.

Although he arrived here more than two months ahead of Xiao Huo, almost three months earlier.

But God knows whether the butterfly effect caused by my arrival in Douluo Continent will cause Tianmeng Bingcan and Alex to arrive here earlier.

Chen Ping acknowledged the value of these two people. Even if he sold himself ten million times, he could not get one of them. However, Chen Ping cherished his life more and did not intend to gamble with his life.

He had a clear growth plan for himself and even prepared more than one backup plan. There was no need to jump into the spider web woven by the God King Tang in a hurry.

Watching Chen Ping turn around and leave, the black shadow that was originally moving through the tree was also stunned. It quickly descended from the treetop position to the branch, looking at Chen Ping who turned around and left with confusion.

This black shadow was none other than a very strong wind baboon. Although it had only been practicing for ten years, its muscles were very full and its strength was probably no less than that of an average adult.

Its brain capacity was not enough to understand why Chen Ping turned back halfway, but soon, the wind baboon forgot about it.

If there is no meat, then eat some fruit first.

It won’t be too late to start eating meat when another lone human who looks very young appears.
