We propose a method for estimating the large-scale rms bulk velocity of the cosmic mass field from the transmitted fluxes of Ly$\alpha$ forests. It is based on two linear relationships on large scales: 1) the relation between the fluctuations of the transmission and the underlying density field, and 2) the relation between the density fluctuations and the peculiar velocity field. We show that, with a multiscale decomposition, the two relations can be effectively employed for predicting the rms bulk velocity. Since QSO's Ly$\alpha$ forest is due to the absorptions of diffusely distributed and photoionized IGM, this method provides an independent estimate of the rms bulk velocity at high redshifts, on large scales, and free from the bias of galaxies. Using the transmitted flux of 60 moderate-resolution QSO spectra, the rms bulk velocity is found to be 230$\pm$50 km s$^{-1}$ around redshift $z=2.25$ on scale 23 h$^{-1}$Mpc, and down to 110$\pm$45 km s$^{-1}$ around $z=3.25$ on scale 92 h$^{-1}$Mpc for an LCDM universe ($\Omega=0.3$ and $\Lambda=0.7$). The results are basically consistent with the linear evolution theory
