If you would like to access your file out of wwwroot folder,you need to configure the Static File Middleware as follows:

app.UseStaticFiles();// For the wwwroot folder

app.UseStaticFiles(new StaticFileOptions
        {
            FileProvider = new PhysicalFileProvider(
                Path.Combine(Directory.GetCurrentDirectory(), "Uplodaed_Documents")),
            RequestPath = "/Uplodaed_Documents"
        });
//Enable directory browsing
app.UseDirectoryBrowser(new DirectoryBrowserOptions
        {
            FileProvider = new PhysicalFileProvider(
                Path.Combine(Directory.GetCurrentDirectory(), "Uplodaed_Documents")),
            RequestPath = "/Uplodaed_Documents"
        });

app.UseMvc();

You could refer to asp.net core static files Serve files outside of web root
