Lychees will "lose its color in one day, its fragrance in two days, and its taste in three days", and Lingnan is more than 5,000 miles away from Chang'an . This is impossible, but for his family, Li Shan De is determined to try : If I fail, I still want to know, how far I will be from the finish line."
