In addition to wearing the same vest, many volunteers also held various slogans and banners in their hands.
In the middle of the crowd, [Merciful Flight Purdue], wearing a kasaya, was holding a phone. He seemed to be talking to someone.
“Amitabha, everyone, the volunteers who followed the truck just called. The truck full of rabbits will be here in about three minutes.”
“While everyone is doing good deeds, you must also pay attention to your own safety.”
“It’s merit for us to intercept the vehicles, save the lives, and set them free.”
“If the driver speaks ill of you, don’t offend him and affect your social ethics.”
At the same time, All Hui came to everyone with her phone.
After announcing a few things to take note of, [Merciful Flight Purdue] walked toward the road ahead.
As the vehicles approached, the volunteers gradually became restless.
A middle-aged woman in her fifties, wearing a short-sleeved shirt and shorts, called a few young people to her side.
“Everyone, get ready. After we save those rabbits, we’ll immediately take photos and videos and send them to our social media accounts, forums, and livestreaming platforms.”
“Sister Wang, don’t worry. We’ve already prepared everything.”
The crowd answered the middle-aged woman’s words at once.
It wasn’t the first time they had done something like this, so she didn’t have to explain it every time.
Through self-media, they could expand the audience that witnessed their good deeds.
After a while, a truck roared in the distance.
The driver kept honking his horn to remind the people before him to block the road.
[Merciful Flight Purdue] put his palms together and chanted Amitabha.
“Everyone, spread out and pay attention to your personal safety.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the volunteers stood in twos and threes on both sides and raised the banners in their hands.
“Love animals; all living beings are equal.”
“Buddha is merciful and saves people from suffering.”
“Selling animals is harmful, and setting free animals is of boundless merit.”
“Stop the killing. Everyone should be a vegetarian.”
“Kill less and accumulate more blessings.”
There were countless similar contents.
In the livestream, the viewers were dumbfounded.
They vaguely felt that this scene was familiar.
“What the fuck! What’s the difference between these fanatics and those crazy dog lovers?”
“I’m a banknote-releasing enthusiast. Please hand over your banknotes to me, and I’ll help you release them.”
“LMAO.”
“Touch some grass.”
“When we’re eating vegetables, you don’t see them claiming that plants are alive.”
“Ignorance is a sin, and brain damage is a terminal illness.”
The viewers sent all kinds of mocking comments.
The truck transporting the rabbits was soon forced to stop in the middle of the road by the volunteers.
As dozens of volunteers became excited and shouted, the scene instantly felt like refugees robbing a supply truck.
The truck driver was an honest-looking middle-aged man.
Seeing so many people surrounding the car, the driver rolled down the window and asked nervously, “What do you want?”
“Amitabha.”
[Merciful Flight Purdue] chanted and stood under the truck door, surrounded by his volunteers.
“Sir, this poor monk greets you.”
“What exactly do you want?”
The middle-aged driver was at a loss.
“This penniless monk has brought all the believers here to accumulate blessings for you and prevent you from falling into hell because of your killing karma,” said [Merciful Flight Purdue].
“Are you crazy? 1 don’t know you, so I don’t need you to accumulate blessings for me.”
“Whether 1 go to hell or not has nothing to do with you… Why are you cursing me?”
The middle-aged driver returned to his senses and glared at [Merciful Flight Purdue] in dissatisfaction.
He urged everyone to make way quickly.
“How can you be like this?” Sister Wang reprimanded him in a shrill voice. “Master Purdue kindly came to bless you and help you wash away your sins.”
“It’s fine if you don’t appreciate it, but how could you actually speak ill of Master Purdue?”
As Sister Wang spoke, the volunteers who stood at a moral high ground began to attack from all sides.
“You can’t transport this carriage of rabbits away!”
“The ones inside aren’t just rabbits, but living beings like us.”
“Please refrain from eating animals and uphold the equality of all life.”
“Everything has a spirit. Humans should give up eating meat and live in harmony with all living beings.”
The middle-aged driver snapped, “Are you guys crazy? What does this have to do with you?”
“I didn’t steal or rob the rabbits. I bought them.”
“I have legal procedures for transporting and selling rabbits.”
The driver jumped out of his truck angrily and began to argue with everyone. He pointed at [Merciful Flight Purdue] and said, “Old man, hurry up and take these people away. Otherwise, I’ll fight it out with you.”
“Everyone, come over quickly. There’s some rabbits who can’t hold on any longer!”
Behind the truck, there were piles of cages filled with rabbits.
A young volunteer found a few rabbits listless in the cage at the bottom.
They looked like they were on their last breath.
Knowing that rabbits were dying, the volunteers acted like their parents were in danger and scrambled to climb into the truck.
They tried their best to lower the cages on top.
During the transportation process, the elderly volunteers were all vigorous and powerful.
Young female volunteers weren’t inferior to them, too, as a delicate young lady instantly became an experienced porter.
Everyone placed the cage on the ground and comforted the rabbits that they would be saved soon, begging them to persevere.
“You can’t! You can’t do this!”
The middle-aged driver was so anxious that he was about to cry. He rushed over and stretched out his hands in an attempt to stop the crowd.
“People like you only have money in their eyes!” Sister Wang said it in a harsh tone. “Don’t you know that these rabbits are all living beings?”
“Once you transport them away, they will become human food.”
“With so many rabbits dying because of you, not only will you go to hell, but your family and relatives, as well as those who know you, will also be implicated.”
“You can choose not to love, but you must never hurt them!”
This sentence seemed to ignite the horn of war.
The volunteers, who were busy moving the rabbit cages, shouted in unison.
“You can choose not to love, but you must never hurt them!”
“Selling animals is killing; we should never eat meat!”
“Releasing animals gathers merit. All living beings are equal, starting with me.”
The shouts became louder and louder.
[Merciful Flight Purduel stood at the side with his palms pressed together and grunted.
Seeing this, the viewers were both angry and anxious.
“Driver, what are you waiting for? Hurry up and call the police!”
“Stopping a car and robbing the goods on it is robbery.”
“Jeez, reality is always the most magical experience.”
“They’re not doing charity. They’re basically trying to bankrupt the driver.”
“The beef burger in my mouth suddenly doesn’t smell good…”
“If I were the driver of this truck, I wouldn’t care who they are. Just beating them up is considered self-defense!”
The righteous viewers were worried for the driver, but at the same time, they were angered by the actions of these people.
They wished they could teleport to the scene and help the driver uphold justice..
