However, even though it was quieter compared to the previous version, it was still quite noisy compared to internal combustion engines, and the smell was somewhat pungent, making the riding experience far inferior to that of a hot air balloon. The only advantage was its speed and lack of terrain restrictions.
Both Qin territory and Sichuan are mountainous regions. Traveling along the ancient Jinniu Road on horseback would take at least ten days.
