Burning to Death Together





Feng Yu Heng furrowed her brows and sniffed a couple times . The smell of blood filled the air . Realizing something was wrong, she looked down and saw that the young man was sitting on a straw mat with both legs straightened in front of him . His knees were starting to bleed profusely .

“Who are you?” She cautiously probed . Based on the current situation, this man was not a danger to her . As a doctor, she could tell that those legs had suffered major injuries, there was no need for closer inspection . At present, standing up was absolutely an impossibility .

Hearing the question, the young man coldly hmphed and did not respond . But with that cold hmph, his lips formed a slight smile that charmed her for a few moments .

Feng Yu Heng suddenly shivered, his noble air and bewitching demeanor were both natural . In spite of his face being a pale white, his face drenched with sweat, his legs currently being in a dire situation, his aura of nobility was not affected in the slightest . He appeared capable of wreaking havoc .

“If you’ve seen enough, then go away . ” The man, leaning on a mountain cliff, coldly responds . He had not forgotten how love struck this country girl was earlier .

Feng Yu Heng was utterly irritated by people that spoke this way . For what reason should leave when told to leave?





Might as well take a few steps forward . Finding a few tufts of grass, she sat down . “Is this mountain your family’s? Did they dig the roads? I refuse to leave, what can you do about it?”

After speaking, she thought of something . She turned her head and looked to the side, then let out a laugh . “Huh, currently, the one that needs to leave is not just me . You need to leave as well!” She pointed towards the massive fire raging in the mass grave . “Based on how it’s currently burning, this place will soon be entirely burned . ”

The man turned his head . The moment he saw the blaze, his face became even whiter, his brows furrowed, and that purple lotus was quickly scrunched tight . His mind was flustered .

“Forget it . ” Feng Yu Heng had absolutely no resistance towards men who grew to be like this . Before heading off, she walked over to the young man . “I’ll give you a hand . Can you handle walking a little?”

The man looked and inspected her carefully . The girl was at most in her early teens . Her body looked so thin and weak that she’d break with the slightest touch . Indeed, her earlier performance with throwing pebbles was amazing, but that relied on tricky techniques . Really relying on her to support his weight would be difficult .

“Well, say something!” Feng Yu Heng used her hand to waft the air to his nose . “The fire might not be big, but don’t you feel that the smell is getting stronger? The crevices in the mountain guide the wind . The smell we’re currently smelling is burnt corpse . Burnt human flesh… Burnt…”





“That’s enough . ” He couldn’t bear hearing any more . The more he heard, the more nauseous he became . “Try pulling on the straw mat . Let’s see if you can pull me out . ”


“Is it that bad?” Feng Yu Heng stared blankly . He wanted her, a small girl, to pull a straw mat with a grown man sitting on it . What sort of bad joke is that . “Let’s see . ” She moves forward to poke at his legs .

“Stop!” The man proclaimed with anger, as he struck out violently . With that, she was easily knocked to the ground .

Feng Yu Heng’s fall was excruciatingly painful . She glared at him, “Are you ill!?”1

“If I weren’t ill, would I be sitting here?” The man responded in a matter of fact attitude . “I did not mean to push you so hard . I just used more power than intended . ”

“My good will was mistaken for ill intentions . ” Feng Yu Heng decided to leave him be . “If you don’t want to walk, then just keep sitting here enjoying the aroma of burnt flesh . This girl will not accompany you . ”





She turned, about to depart . From behind, a defeated shout sounded, then called out, “Wait, hold on . ”

With a great deal of effort, she was finally able to get him out of the mountain crevice . Feng Yu Heng felt dead tired . She did not think the injuries to the man’s legs were so severe, as he was not able to put any weight on them . While half carrying, half dragging him along, his leg hit a rock . The man let out a muffled groan but did not scream out in pain .

Gradually, the anger in her heart started to lessen . She was reminded of a similarly iron-willed comrade from her former life . Even though half his leg had been blown off, he did not let out a peep .

“Go that way . ” The man pointed . “Not far from here is a brook . The wind blows north along it, so the fire won’t reach . ”

“Ok . ” Feng Yu Heng clenched her teeth and dug deep . “The straw mat is already completely worn, bear with it a little longer . ”

“No problem . ” He responded calmly as though it weren’t his problem .

Feng Yu Heng felt a little irked and responded a little rashly . “I want to thrash you more, so you won’t say no problem . ”

“So young yet so vicious . ” He turned his head and looked back at the fiery pit . “Earlier, if you had more stones in your hand, then would those two have burned to do?”

“Thunk!” She let go and dropped the man to the ground .

1: She’s implying he’s mentally ill, while he’s simply saying there’s something wrong with his body . They do, however, use the same phrasing .
