“I know this question. Don’t fight with me to answer it.”

While Chen Yu was taking a breather, one of his viewers sent multiple paid comments.

This viewer was also a psychologist, and he first advertised his clinic.

Then, he began to explain what the placebo effect was.

The placebo effect was also known as the psychological consolation effect.

It was a common method of psychological treatment used to help patients with severe illnesses with low tolerance to drugs.

Through hypnosis, suggestion, and dialogue, placebo could help patients reduce their psychological barriers, increase their confidence in overcoming their illness, and achieve a better effect in their overall treatment.

Not only could a placebo drug treat mental illnesses, but it also had a significant effect on physical illnesses.

The folk witches and shamans, as well as charlatans, often used this method to confuse others.

This was their number-one method to induce their believers to believe in themselves.

If one followed these charlatans’ instructions, they claimed to provide merits, blessings, a cure to all illnesses, health, and a happy family.

Under a long-term placebo, the believers would believe that what they had done had worked and form a subconscious belief.

When doing these rituals, they would feel happy and comfortable.

This was all because their brains released a certain amount of endorphins while doing these habitual rituals.

Endorphins could cause the human body to produce a short period of pleasure.

If secreted repeatedly for a long period, it would form a habitual neural circuit, commonly known as addiction.

The longer the habit, the stronger the addiction.

They would also firmly believe in these charlatan’s words more and more.

After reading this viewer’s explanation, Chen Yu gave him a thumbs up and a like.

“This viewer is right. The reason why you feel that your depression has been cured and that you are full of faith in what you do is because of your brain.”

After saying so, Chen Yu tapped his temple.

“When you first met [Merciful Flight Purdue], he was prepared to buy all the lab rats from the hospital.”

“The hospital severely rejected his request and even called security to chase him away.”

“You were very puzzled by his actions and took the initiative to talk to him.”

“[Merciful Flight Purdue] said that every living being has spirit. Lab rats helped humans with their medical experiments, but humans still want to kill them after their work is done.”

“Seeing that you were very interested in his teachings, [Merciful Flight Purdue] kept instilling the teaching of setting animals free to accumulate merit in you.”

“He brought you to more volunteer work.”

“You just happened to see a big truck of dogs that they bought back from the marketplace, and you couldn’t help but think of the pet dog you raised.”

“You told him about how your pet dog saved you, and [Merciful Flight Purdue] took this opportunity to use this against you.”

“He claimed that the dog was guided by Buddha to pull you back from the gates of hell.”

“Under the persuasion of [Merciful Flight Purdue] and the others, you chose to become a volunteer.”

From then on, Ah Hui’s mentality began to change. She believed that what she did was the right thing.

In addition, the negative emotions caused by depression gradually disappeared.

It made her even more determined that everything she did was right.

“How did you know all this?”

Ah Hui was shocked.

She hadn’t even had time to explain the rest of the story, so how did Chen Yu know her past?

Ever since she became a volunteer, Ah Hui has only cared about one thing.

Release more captured animals.

In order to free up more time to do good deeds, Ah Hui ignored her parents’ objections and quit school.

She put all her energy into setting free more animals.

“A psychologist can determine what happened to you through your reactions, speech, and mannerisms,” Chen Yu said calmly.

“Not only did you participate in many such animal-release operations, but you also swore never to eat meat.”

“You turned into a vegetarian and started persuading the people around you not to eat meat too.”

“The first people you tried to stop from eating meat were your parents.”

“Not only did you not allow them to eat meat, but you also did not allow them to continue operating their butcher stand.”

“The more meat you eat, the more karma you accumulate,” interjected All Hui.

“In order to let my parents have a happy old age, I will not allow them to eat meat.”

“Running a butcher stand is even more outrageous.”

“Ever since I can remember, my parents have sold countless animal carcasses. It’s a heinous crime.”

After saying this, the chat exploded.

Her parents gave birth to her, raised her, and provided for her to go to school.

How could she say that his parents were guilty of heinous crimes?

Without the butcher stand run by her parents, what would Ah Hui eat and wear?

Such an ingrate.

It was wrong for her parents to force her to study, but that didn’t mean she should be an ingrate.

“I’ve long been prepared to be misunderstood by others or even attacked maliciously,” Ah Hui said firmly.

“I know this path is difficult, but I will persevere.”

“Dr. Chen, with so many viewers gathered in your livestream, it means that you have a strong appeal.”

“I beg you, don’t let the viewers eat meat anymore, and don’t let them hurt living beings anymore.”

“The world doesn’t just belong to us humans. It also belongs to other living beings.”

“Eating meat is an act of killing, and it is the key to the fall of humanity.”

“If you don’t eat meat, there will be no killing and hostility. The world will become better and better day by day.”

“When everyone doesn’t eat meat or kill, we can all live a good life.”

“According to what you’ve said, eating meat is an evil thing,” Chen Yu said noncommittally.

“If your parents were sick and needed meat to nourish their bodies, would you allow them to eat meat?”

“I won’t.”

Ah Hui replied without thinking.

“If my parents’ health is deteriorating, it must be because they operated a butcher stand and killed too much, which led to retribution.”

“I won’t let them eat meat and break their precepts. I’ll work harder to participate in my volunteer work.”

“Through the merit that I obtain, I can help my parents wash away their sins and restore their health.”

The chat was filled with curses.

“You’re asking me why I eat meat? Because it’s delicious.”

“There are billions of bacteria in water. Don’t drink, then. Drinking is equivalent to killing those bacteria.”

“Meat eaters won’t force others to eat meat, but vegetarians will force you only to eat vegetables.”

“I also like to be vegetarian, but I think meat is a veggie.”

“I didn’t expect that there would be such a dumbass vegan activist in this country. I thought that it was only available overseas.”

What kind of daughter did their parents raise?

Does she even understand malnutrition?

For the sake of her so-called faith, she did not even care about her parents ‘safety.

Ah Hui answered firmly that she would rather let her parents die than eat meat.

Obviously, it was not just a casual remark.

Faced with a large number of comments mocking and cursing her in the chat, Ah Hui said without changing her expression, “Chat, can you be reasonable?”

“Even if we don’t eat meat, we humans can still live.”

“Why do you have to keep your eyes on meat?”

“We paid to buy the animals to release them. We don’t ask for your understanding. Please don’t continue attacking us.”

“Everything we do is to make the world a better place..”
