It's an indication that the spokes don't have enough tension and the ones on the bottom of the wheel are loosening enough when you put weight on the bike to move a little and make the ping sound. Eventually the spokes that move that way on each wheel rotation will start to fatigue and break - so the shop should retension the wheel to a higher level.
