When Feng Yijia was a ghost, he floated all over the mountains, never feeling tired or far away.
Now, dragging his not-yet-fully-recovered body up the pathless mountain forest, he soon became exhausted and gasping for breath.
I had to stop and go, and take it slowly.
I took the shortest route but it took me a long time, until the sun was directly overhead, before I finally arrived, sweating profusely.
