"Les tribulations d'un chinois en Chine" by Jules Verne is an adventure novel published in 1879. Kin-Fo, a wealthy young Chinese man indifferent to life, believes himself ruined and asks his philosopher friend Wang to kill him within a set deadline, hoping to finally feel emotion through fear. When Kin-Fo discovers he isn't ruined after all, he desperately wants to live—but Wang has vanished, and Kin-Fo must chase him across China to cancel his own death sentence.
