"Orochimaru, is he really here?"

Uzuki Yugao couldn't help but feel a sense of confusion!

"Since we're already here, let's go down and take a look first!"

Jiang Cheng shrugged and then walked directly into the shrine.

Seeing this, Uzuki Yugao quickly followed her inside.

After entering the shrine.

The first thing that catches the eye in Jiangcheng is a huge mural on a palm-leaf fan!

Red on top and white on the bottom.

It is the emblem of the Uchiha clan!

only.

This mural, once a symbol of the Uchiha clan's glory!

It's now covered in cobwebs!

Even the entire shrine room was covered with a thick layer of dust!

Some wooden ornaments that were originally used to decorate the shrine.

They were all lying sprawled on the ground at this moment!

It may shatter or burn.

A mess.

In some places.

You can even see some dried bloodstains.

Saw this scene.

Many members of the Uchiha clan couldn't help but let out a sigh!

[Uchiha Izuna: Sigh~ I never imagined that my once-proud Uchiha clan would fall to such a state!]

[Uchiha Kagami: Yes, back in the day, our Uchiha clan was one of the top clans in the ninja world.]

Other clans tremble at the mere mention of my name, Uchiha.

I never imagined that even such a sacred place would become a ruin trampled upon by everyone. Sigh...

[Uchiha Shisui: Damn it, if I had known the Uchiha clan would end up being wiped out, I shouldn't have sided with the Konoha leadership!]

[Uchiha Izumi: Shisui-nii, this isn't your fault. It's all the fault of the Konoha higher-ups for being so cunning. They took advantage of your and Itachi's kindness!]

[Uchiha Fugaku: Sigh~ It's true what they say, the Uchiha clan crest still stands, but the old Uchiha are nowhere to be seen!]

[Yagura Karatachi: Holy crap, Chief Fugaku is something else! He's even spouting poetry!]

[The Third Raikage: Excellent writing! No wonder you were the last head of the Uchiha clan!]

[Uchiha Madara: After ruining the Uchiha clan like this, they still dare to recite poetry here? What a disgrace!]

[Uchiha Fugaku: ...]

Jiang Cheng: "Fugaku, stop reciting poetry and tell me about the secret passage in the underground chamber!"

The secret passage leading to the underground chamber of the Naga Shrine was known only to the successive heads of the Uchiha clan.

and so.

After arriving at Nanga Shrine.

Jiang Cheng did not rush to search for the entrance to the secret passage.

Instead, he directly asked Fugaku Uchiha about the underground secret chamber!

But it's a pity.

Fugaku Uchiha was clearly not cooperating!

[Uchiha Fugaku: The underground chamber of the Naka Shrine is a forbidden area for the Uchiha clan. As the last head of the Uchiha clan, how could I allow an outsider to enter so easily?]

Jiang Cheng: "But, hasn't Orochimaru already gone in?"

[Hashirama Senju: I've been there before!]

[Uchiha Fugaku: ...]

[Uchiha Shisui: Clan leader, even I didn't know the entrance to that secret room. How did Orochimaru know?]

[Uchiha Fugaku: You're asking me this question? Who am I supposed to ask?]

[Uchiha Shisui: Clan leader, I think you should tell Jiang Cheng about the entrance to the secret passage as soon as possible.]

[Uchiha Fugaku: Why? You traitor who betrayed us!]

[Uchiha Shisui: No, clan leader, think about it yourself, what is Orochimaru's favorite thing to do?]

[Uchiha Fugaku: Human Experimentation...]

[Uchiha Shisui: What if he conducts human experiments in our Uchiha clan's forbidden area?]

[Uchiha Fugaku: Holy crap, I never thought of that. That stone tablet is a sacred object of our Uchiha clan. Orochimaru, that bastard, actually dared to conduct human experiments there.]

Hey kid, on the third shelf down from the left side of the mural, there's a hidden compartment on the second shelf inside. Just press it!

In order to prevent the sacred ground of the Uchiha clan from being insulted.

Fugaku Uchiha quickly revealed the entrance to the secret passage to the underground chamber.

"Wow, I didn't expect Uchiha Shisui to be such a helpful wingman!"

Jiang Cheng was also taken aback by Uchiha Shisui's actions.

He was initially worried about Fugaku Uchiha's tight-lipped nature.

Unexpectedly, Uchiha Shisui solved the problem for him directly!

This is truly a pleasant surprise!

However, Jiang Cheng was unaware of this.

The reason why Uchiha Shisui spoke up for him!

The main reason was that Uchiha Shisui himself wanted to see that stone tablet!

Anyway.

Those are all creatures of their Uchiha clan.

You weren't entitled to see it while you were alive.

Now that I'm dead, if I don't watch it now, I'll be doing myself a disservice!

People are curious.

Uchiha Shisui was clearly the same!

Following the method given by Fugaku Uchiha, Jiang Cheng quickly found the hidden compartment on the bookshelf.

Press hard!

"—Click!"

“—cluck, cluck, cluck!”

Then a sound of stone slabs rubbing together rang out.

The wall with the painted palm-leaf fan suddenly began to move inwards.

Just a few breaths of time.

A narrow, hidden door, allowing only one person to pass at a time, appeared below the mural.

Upon seeing this, Uzuki Yugao couldn't help but ask in surprise, "Jiang Cheng, how did you know the entrance to the secret room was here?"

Jiang Cheng smiled slightly: "Just guessing!"

Without waiting for Uzuki Yugao's reply, he took the lead and went straight into the dark, gloomy hidden door!

"Wait for me, don't walk too fast!"

Uzuki Yugao took a breath and immediately followed!

We walked through a long underground corridor with very limited lighting.

In no time.

A wisp of fire appeared at the end of their line of sight.

[Uchiha Fugaku: There's a fire! There really is someone in the secret room!]

[Uchiha Shisui: It must be Orochimaru. It seems Kabuto wasn't lying!]

[Uchiha Fugaku: That damned Orochimaru! How dare he do such a thing in the sacred grounds of our Uchiha clan! Unforgivable!]

"Sister Xiyan, be careful later, Orochimaru is no pushover!"

Upon seeing that wisp of fire, Jiang Cheng also became wary.

Although he had crippled his opponent once in the Forest of Death!

However, regardless of the circumstances, Orochimaru is a ninja with Kage-level strength.

Not to be underestimated!

"I know."

Uzuki Yugao nodded solemnly.

Orochimaru is an S-rank rogue ninja from Konoha.

They were also among the legendary Sannin!

She certainly dared not underestimate it in the slightest!

Follow the direction of the firelight.

The two soon arrived at a spacious underground room.

By the faint light of the campfire.

Jiang Cheng immediately recognized the underground secret room.

An ordinary, unremarkable room!

It's no different from any other ordinary room.

The only thing worth noting!

That's the stone tablet placed directly above the room!

And this moment.

In front of that stone tablet.

A figure clad in a Wind Shadow God Robe stood there with his hands behind his back.

Orochimaru!

"Jiang Chengjun, I never expected you to be able to find this place..."

When Jiang Cheng brought Uzuki Yugao into this secret room, Orochimaru's body slowly turned around!

A pair of golden, vertical pupils gleamed with an unusual light.

.......

"What a joke! If you can come, why can't I!"

Jiang Cheng stared intently at Orochimaru, his words revealing no fear.

Orochimaru licked his lips and said, "Was it Kabuto who told you? No, even if he told you I was here, I'm the only one who knows about the entrance. How did you find the entrance to the secret passage?"

Jiang Cheng smiled faintly and said, "If I said that Uchiha Fugaku told me, would you believe me?"
