All things have spirits! — Stop killing living beings (Extremely shocking)

One night at the end of the 20th century, when I saw this earth-shattering scene on Hunan Satellite TV, I couldn't help but weep bitterly! In a desert area of Qinghai Province, water is extremely scarce. According to reports, each person only has 3 jin (about 1.5 kg) of water per day, delivered by the stationed army from a distant place. These 3 jin of water are not only for drinking, rinsing rice, and washing vegetables, but ultimately also for feeding livestock. The livestock cannot lack water—they get thirsty! Finally, one day, an old ox, always considered simple-minded and loyal, became extremely thirsty and broke free from its ropes, forcing its way onto a road in the desert that every water transport truck must pass. With astonishing recognition, the ox waited for a long time and eventually encountered a water transport military truck. The ox quickly pressed forward. The soldiers transporting the water had encountered animals blocking the road for water before, but those animals were not as stubborn as this ox. The army has regulations that water transport trucks cannot have any 'leakage' during the trip, and cannot freely give away water. These rules may seem heartless, but they are necessary—every drop of water is a person's 'ration.' In the desert, humans and the ox standoffed like this for a long half day, eventually even causing a traffic jam. The drivers behind began cursing, and some impatient drivers tried to drive the ox away by setting fire with gasoline. But the ox did not move, immovable like Mount Tai. It didn't relax until the owner came. The owner of the ox felt extremely guilty, picked up a long whip, and struck it hard on the thin old ox. The ox's whole body veins bulged from being beaten, yet it still did not move. Finally, the blood flowing along the whip marks stained the whip, the ox's body, the yellow sand, and the sunset red. The pitiful bellow of the ox, mingled with the cold harsh wind of the desert, seemed so tragic. The soldiers transporting water cried, and even the drivers stuck in the jam cried. In the end, a soldier said, 'Let me break the rules just this once. I am willing to accept punishment.' He took his personal water basin and placed about 3 jin of water from the truck in front of the ox. The ox did not drink the water it had fought so desperately to obtain; instead, it faced the sunset and howled toward the sky, seemingly calling out. In the glow of the evening clouds, a young ox ran from behind a nearby sand dune. The injured old ox watched the young ox greedily drink the water, extended its tongue, and licked the eyes of its beloved child. The calf also licked its mother's eyes. The people around, in silence, saw the tears in the eyes of the mother and child. The last ray of light burned on the horizon. The mother and child, without waiting for the owner to call them, began their journey home in the midst of the audience's silent, wordless observation.One night in the twentieth century, when I saw this heartbreaking scene on television, I thought of my mother, who endured the hardships of labor. Like many viewers in front of the television, I shed torrents of tears.\-------Excerpt from 'Women's Digest'\I hope that after reading this post, everyone will refrain from killing. May you cultivate both fortune and wisdom!

People's hearts actually do not have the nature of cruel killing.
We can try our best not to kill living beings, but we must not destroy the food chain.
Tears stumble, soul wanders
Humans are destined for extinction; humans fundamentally have no humanity.
This article seems to be in the Chinese language exercise book...
Adding to the fourth floor, this is a reading article from an elementary school Chinese workbook. Also, I want to ask the original poster, what does this short article have to do with killing? It's about water conservation.
Well, actually, you can see a lot of things from this.

It's not realistic in today's society. Just think about it carefully and you'll understand.
