Daoxu heard the words and smirked without speaking. Daohe rolled up his sleeves and went to help as well.
Once they finished, Manbao and the others officially met Daohe's three junior brothers and sisters, but it was a one-sided introduction. Whether three years old or wrapped in a swaddle without being able to kick their legs, they regarded the three with indifference, one hiding behind Taoist Shoushi, while the other played with bubbles.
The five went out, and Daoxu sneered, "Uncle Master lied. Except for Third Junior Brother being left at the temple door, Fourth Junior Brother and Little Junior Sister were picked up on the way back from performing ritual services."
Bai Shan asked, "What issues do they have?"
Daoxu: "Third Junior Brother can't speak. He's over three years old and still hasn't opened his mouth. Our master and the old physician from the bottom of the mountain have examined him. It's likely congenital; he can't make a sound, not even when crying."
