Naruto under the bamboo forest

"Distant relative!"

Liu Yu recited these two words in a low voice while looking absently at the ancestral reliefs carved on the wall. The black stone boundary monument here, coupled with Maitreya's actions, can basically confirm the reliability of this news.

It must be said that Liuyu was shocked by Maitreya's answer. She did not expect that the final answer would be this. If the Kusachi clan and the miko clan are distant relatives, this can barely explain why Miroku wanted to take in a clan member.

However, this reason alone is not enough. Just like the Uzushio Hidden Village and Konoha Village have been on good terms in the past, Konoha even printed the Uzumaki clan's emblem on Konoha's standard vest, but Konoha did not show any influence on Uzumaki. He provided help during the destruction of Shiogakure Village, and did not even provide help to the Uzumaki clan members who were living in various places.

Although the Kusanagi clan is distantly related to the shrine maiden clan, there is no contact between the two clans in Liuyu's memory. Even Sister Naiko doesn't know much about these things. She probably only gradually understood them after coming into contact with Dong Ling. to these secret ones.

On the eve of the incident in Caoyin Village, facing the threat of the annihilation of the clan, the senior leaders of the clan did not even think of going to the Kingdom of Ghosts. This also shows that the exchanges between the two clans have gradually faded over the long history.

Miroku left some time for Liuyu to digest the shocking news, and after a while he spoke again: "Do you know where the knife on your waist comes from?"

"knife?"

Liu Yu subconsciously looked at the Mikazuki Munechika worn on her waist and muttered in confusion.

"This sword is a token of the patriarch passed down from the era of the Cao Qian clan. It was lost during the Warring States Period. Later, it was said that my mother found it through the power of bamboo escape."

Ryūha looked at Miroku and explained, is there any other explanation for the origin of Mikazuki Munechika?

"You are basically right, but there is one thing wrong. That is, your mother did not retrieve the sword through the power of bamboo escape, but she took it from the shrine of the Kingdom of Ghosts."

"Taken from the Kingdom of Ghosts?"

Liuyu asked, this is different from what Sister Naizi told him! How could a token of the patriarch that had been passed down from the time of the Kusachi clan end up in the Kingdom of Demons?

Seeing the doubt on Liu Yu's face, Miroku continued to explain:

"After this sword was lost during the Warring States Period, it was found by the Miko clan by chance, and it has been enshrined in the shrine of the Kingdom of Demons ever since. Since the Kusanagi clan has not given birth to a successor to the Bamboo Escape Blood for a long time, Unable to fully utilize the capabilities of this sword, coupled with the relationship between the two clans, the Kusachi clan acquiesced to the Miko clan's keeping of the sword."

"This sword has been enshrined in the temple of the Kingdom of Ghosts since then until the arrival of the previous generation of Bamboo Escape Blood Successor, your mother. It was also at that time that I met your mother."

""

Liu Yu listened quietly without interrupting Maitreya's speech. At the same time, she was also curious as to why these secrets were not even recorded in the family's secret scroll.

"Take it out?"

"it?"

Liu Yu was stunned, what does it refer to? But soon Ryūha noticed that Miroku's eyes were always staring at Mikazuki Munechika on her waist, and she quickly realized what Miroku meant by "it".

"Um!"

Liu Yu nodded slightly and began to form seals to summon the white jade stone pillar, and then used his own blood to activate the second form of the white jade stone pillar.

Looking at the keyhole in the middle of the white jade pillar, Liu Yu glanced at Maitreya again, then with a firm expression, he pulled out the Mikazuki Munechika from his waist and inserted it. Then, the white jade stone pillar shot out a dazzling white light, and floating between the light pillars were scrolls recording family secrets.

Seeing the scroll emerge, Maitreya's eyes flashed with excitement, and then Maitreya took out the hairpin from his hair and pricked his middle finger.

A drop of blood seeped out from the glistening white fingertips. After the blood seeped out, it seemed that it had received some inexplicable summons, and it slowly flew towards the scroll in the beam.

Seeing this, Liu Yu really believed that the Kusachi clan and the shrine maiden clan were distant relatives. Otherwise, this scroll would not be sensitive to Maitreya's blood.

Feeling the blood slowly approaching, the scroll opened on its own and turned quickly, directly to the part with the word "sealing" written on it.

Seeing this, Liu Yu couldn't help but get excited. I have always been thinking about how to open the scroll's seal. Like Maitreya, I have tried to use blood as a guide to open the scroll, but there has been no progress for a long time. The sealing techniques recorded in the family cannot unlock the secret of the scroll at all. seal on.

I didn't expect that I would have the opportunity to unlock the seal today. It turns out that the blood of the witch clan is needed to unlock the scroll. No wonder I had no progress before.

In Liu Yu's excited gaze, the blood on Maitreya's fingertips slowly floated over the word "Feng", and soon, the blood on Maitreya's fingertips began to blend into the word "Feng". As the blood on Maitreya's fingertips blended in, the entire sealing style began to slowly dissipate, and the originally sealed content slowly emerged.

"It actually got untied!"

Seeing the seal being idle, Liu Yu's heartbeat couldn't help but speed up. The ninjutsu recorded in the unsealed content in the front of this scroll are so powerful that it is difficult to imagine what the sealed content in the back is.

"Look! Haven't you been thinking about how to open it?"

Seeing Liu Yu's excitement, Miroku couldn't help but chuckle. This child was still as anxious as her mother back then.

"Lord Maitreya, don't you take a look?"

Liu Yu took down the scroll with excitement, and was about to look through the contents of the seal, but then he paused, as if he had thought of something, turned around and asked softly, what is the seal of this scroll after all? Maitreya untied.

"No, I've already read the content here. Also, you don't need to call me Lord Maitreya. If you don't mind, you can call me Auntie."

Seeing Liu Yu's anxious look, Maitreya chuckled and said in reply, Liu Yu's mother had already read this scroll when she came to the Ghost Country.

"Thank you! Aunt Maitreya!"

Liuyu turned around and saluted Maitreya respectfully. This time it was not purely out of etiquette like before, but from his heart.

Although she was not very clear about the relationship between her mother and Maitreya, she could feel that Maitreya's love for her was sincere and that she truly cared for her as an old friend. Liuyu hadn't felt this kind of warmth from the elders for a long time after his father passed away. Although I still have many questions, this does not stop me from saying thank you to Maitreya.
