I remember Xiaobai's second donkey trip, during the May Day holiday, he went to climb the third highest peak in Zhejiang - the top of the mountain. I was advised by an expert to wear quick-drying clothes and pants. There are 16 people in the team, including Xiaobai, and there are two new donkeys. After all the hard work, we climbed to the top of the mountain, encountered a thunderstorm, and rolled down the mountain. After descending, even though everyone had raincoats, they couldn't withstand the heavy rain, and their clothes and pants were all wet. Not long after the car drove out, while everyone was chatting and laughing, the new donkey in the team suddenly asked: "Why are your clothes all dry?" The old donkey opposite looked at it and saw that the new donkey was wearing pure cotton and clinging tightly to his body.
