Half a month later.

The temple dug open the sand pit and removed from it a pure yellow crystal wrapped in a special film, which was the yellow crystalline substance derived from the sandy rocks.

After half a month of research, he finally verified his conjecture through experimental analysis.

At first, he put a large amount of ordinary sand in a transparent box, then buried a sandstone in it, and when he opened it again at night, he found that the sandstone was intact.

This means that the formation and dissipation of sandy rocks are likely not to have much to do with temperature, because the temperature of the sand itself is basically the same whether it is in the external environment or in a transparent box.

Then he began to test again what actually affected the formation and dissipation of the sandy rocks.

Eventually, he found that it seemed that only by placing the sand rocks on top of the sand would they disappear at night, and that other than that, if they were slightly isolated, they would not be affected by the sand and the change of day and night.

Therefore, it is likely that due to the change of day and night, some kind of change in the whole sandy area was caused, and eventually the sandy rocks formed and disappeared.

So he began to test his conjecture by placing five sandy rocks of different sizes in the same circled sand at night.

Then, after repeated measurements, it was found that the larger the volume of the sandy rock, the slower the dissipation rate, and the smaller the size of the sandy rock, the faster the dissipation.

If the size of the sandy rock is large enough, it is likely that it will not be lost, and if the sandy rock is small enough, it may be lost instantly.

However, matter itself does not suddenly disappear and suddenly appear, so the loss of sand and rocks must return to the sand, and then repeat the cycle again with the rising sun and the setting of the moon.

If you think about it this way, is it possible that even if the sand rock does not touch the sand, it still has this kind of movement.

So the temple began to twist the three sandy rocks into powder, and then stored them again, and when they opened them again after a change of day and night, they found that there was a pure yellow crystalline thing inside.

Obviously, the body of the sandstone should be the crystalline crystallization of the derivative outside, and the rock to which the crystallization is attached only plays the role of a crystal nucleus at the beginning of crystallization.

Moreover, the sandy rock itself is indeed fluid, although this mobility is related to the change of day and night, and is not always in a state of flux.

Immediately after that, the temple began to investigate the nature of the rustling rock, and finally found that it was the same as his previous suspicion.

His initial assumption was that the entire existence of the Fangyuan Desert itself was a huge sandy rock, and that what the sandhipotamus collected and ate was only the progeny of this incomparably large sandy rock.

Of course, the sandy rocks in the sand should exist in the form of fluids, only during the day, they will temporarily precipitate, and then return to the fluid form at night.

This phenomenon is actually very common in nature, for example, the simple relationship between seawater and salt crystallization is this, but when placed in the desert, the sand is seawater, and the sandy rocks are salt crystals.

The difference is that seawater and salt crystallization are affected by temperature, while sandy land and sandy rocks are affected by the diurnal cycle.

This is how you can understand it.

As a result, the temple began to collect a large number of pure sand and rocks, and the principle was very simple, that is, after experiments, a double dialysis membrane was made to isolate the sand and sand rocks from the crystal nucleus, and then purified again.

Unfortunately, the formation of sand rocks is still a rarity.

So he has been raising the sand hippopotamus, and of course the person who takes care of it has become Concubine Yueji, after all, he is busy with experiments now.

Similarly, the training and feeding of other Pokémon are basically handed over to Concubine Yueji and her Miao Meow.

He devoted himself to the study of Kira and Sandy Rocks and the characteristics of his skills.

The state of the sand hippopotamus is also a point of concern to him, because since he began to extract pure sand and rocks, this sand hippopotamus has begun to love this purified sand and sand rock, and does not care about the unpurified sand and sand rocks at all.

At least, at present, this sand hippopotamus has grown extremely strong, and its body has begun to develop towards the heavyweight, and at the same time, its own Yangsa nature has gradually been revealed.

Obviously, the purified sandy rock has a great effect on the development of the characteristics of the sand hippopotamus itself and the physical development.

Therefore, the temple also added this pure sandstone to Yukira's daily diet in addition to the general attribute gemstones.

In fact, there are not many general attribute crystals left in his hands, and at present, Yukira's body is also saturated.

Therefore, he twisted all the general attribute gemstones into powder and added them to the daily diet of the two baby bears.

Hopefully, it will help them grow.

Because, he has also seen such a thing as attribute gems in the internal materials of the Nursery Alliance, and not all Pokémon can have a permanent promoting effect, and they are basically temporary.

Therefore, the temple's Yukira is indeed gifted to a certain extent, at least in terms of absorption ability, which can be seen from his daily diet.

He didn't know whether to be happy or sad now, because it felt like he would never see the time when his wallet was bulging.

In addition, he has not published a new paper for a long time now, so there is still a certain sense of financial crisis.

Therefore, another purpose of studying sandy rocks and soft sand is to form a new paper to add to the cornerstone of his academic career, and to accumulate fame and resources for him.

In fact, soft sand doesn't have much research value, because this kind of thing is, to put it bluntly, because it is constantly refined by the hippopotamus in the body and contaminated with its own earth-attribute energy, so that it can be used by other earth-attribute Pokémon.

But for the temple, it was also a resource that could be used to test Kira's ability to absorb, so it was collected and used as Yukira's snack, which was better than having him eat ordinary sand.

Moreover, the energy of the ground attribute of the soft sand itself can also stimulate the growth of the ground attribute of Kira itself, killing two birds with one stone.

Bang!!

Just as the temple was collecting the purified sandstone that had been buried, Yukira had already smashed a raised rock wall to pieces, and since it had learned to crush the rock, every time it saw the rock, it immediately went up to come up and try it, and then used a sandstorm to completely twist the gravel into powder and blow it away.
