How it's used
This expression uses the verb 丙 to mean hitting or beating, while the phrase 到飛起 acts as an intensifier meaning to an extreme degree. It is highly informal and carries a violent, aggressive tone often heard in street-level arguments or descriptions of fights. It is not used in formal writing or polite conversation.
Examples
He got beaten up badly last time for stealing.

Common mistake
Do not confuse the verb 丙 with the noun 丙 which refers to the third in a sequence or a grade C. The phrase is strictly a verbal construction describing physical violence.
