Chapter 47: Imitation Ghost
After obtaining information from Sun Xiaoman, Chu Jiang gave this ghost a name, "Mimic Spirit." Of course, calling it "Imitation Ghost" is also acceptable.
The summarized pattern is as follows:
1. Ghosts have the special power to completely copy the body of a living person, as well as their thoughts. And once they've copied someone, they will linger around the copied person, living as if they were that person.
2. The ghost can imitate everything about the target, from the body to the mind, from the habits to the way of thinking, it can be said that it is a complete copy, a clone of the target.
3, ghosts usually don't meet their targets, and they try their best to not appear suddenly, for example, by using strange powers to affect surveillance.
4, ghosts will kill anyone who discovers their true identity, but this doesn't include the target they are duplicating.
Because once copied and acting as the target, the target quickly realizes the presence of the Imitation Ghost. At this point, if the Imitation Ghost kills the target, it will immediately lose the ability to mimic.
5. The ghost chooses its target, but the standard is unknown. The ghost will continue to imitate the target until the target is dead, regardless of whether the target has seen its true form or knows its abilities.
6. The ghost has the ability to kill, it seems that by touching, it can make the other person lose their ability to move, and finally dismember them step by step.
The problem lies in this ability to kill. There is a risk when living people come into contact with the Imitation Ghost.
However, using only the blood ropes from the separated body, Chu Jiang couldn't completely restrain the ghost, let alone overpower it. So he had to use the most powerful blood handprint from his real form.
With the previous experience of battling the Stretching Ghost, Chu Jiang believed that by using the blood handprint of the Blood Hand Ghost, he should be able to confront the Stretching Ghost to some extent.
Not to mention that the blood handprint itself can restrain other ghosts to a certain extent.
When the blood handprint touched the humanoid puppet, Chu Jiang became completely still, as if he had turned into a lifeless doll.
At the same time, the Imitation Ghost also became still, as if both sides had entered into some kind of supernatural confrontation.
Chu Jiang felt very surprised when the Imitation Ghost suddenly transformed into itself!
What worried Chu Jiang even more was that the right palm of the Imitation Ghost started oozing drops of bright red blood, which looked very harsh...
Isn't this too scary?? Can the Imitation Ghost also imitate the ghost attached to the target??
The next scene in room 401 was strange and eerie, which would be hard for outsiders to understand: there were two Chu Jiangs together, and one of them had their hand pressed against the other's back.
About five minutes later, all the blood released by Chu Jiang returned to become a blood handprint; the ropes disappeared, and the blood on the floor vanished.
But soon, more blood gushed out from Chu Jiang's right hand, spreading and spreading along the body of the Imitation Ghost...
In just a few minutes, the Imitation Ghost resembling Chu Jiang was completely covered by a sticky, strongly smelly blood.
During this process, the blood in the right hand of the Imitation Ghost tried to resist, but compared to Chu Jiang's power, it was weaker.
At this moment, Chu Jiang could finally move again, but he didn't take it lightly. He fully mobilized the power of the Blood Hand Ghost, trying to completely suppress this ghost.
This kind of suppression was actually a burden for Chu Jiang himself. He could clearly feel the restlessness of the ghost inside him. It can be imagined that he will be tormented again when he goes to sleep tonight...
Regardless, Chu Jiang exerted all his strength. At least for the time being, he could still hold on.
Under Chu Jiang's suppression, the Imitation Ghost gradually stopped moving, as if it had really turned into an inanimate object.
......
After completely finishing, Chu Jiang also broke out in a cold sweat.
Fortunately, after he tested it, Chu Jiang discovered that the blood hand imitated by the Imitation Ghost, although it had a certain supernatural power, its power was still incomparable to the original version.
Otherwise, the danger level of this ghost would be at least one or two levels higher. At that time, Chu Jiang would be the one who died.
Chu Jiang retracted his hand and also retrieved the layer of blood that had penetrated into the Imitation Ghost, leaving only a small amount to prevent it from immediately regaining its ability to move.
Then Chu Jiang took out an ordinary-looking gray clay jar and, with one hand, lifted up the motionless, already restored Imitation Ghost and stuffed it into the jar.
It is strange to say, but the big ghost fit into the jar smoothly as if it could hold everything.
Finally, Chu Jiang put the lid on and took out two Protective Talismans with "Safety in Death" written on them. He crossed them and stuck them on top, sealing it completely!
Of course, Chu Jiang inquired and found out that one talisman would work, but it would shorten the temporary seal time again, which he didn't dare to risk.
As for how long it can be sealed, it depends on the situation. Protective Talismans mainly calm and hypnotize the suppressed ghosts while blocking their perception.
Generally, the stronger the ghost, the faster it will wake up and escape.
However, even for an A-class ghost, sealing it for three months is no big problem as long as your sealing measures are in place and nothing unexpected happens.
You should know that this seal is very fragile. Ordinary people can tear off the talisman and break the jar, so the sealed ghost must be properly guarded.
Based on what Chu Jiang currently knows, this Imitation Ghost is only a C-class ghost. It should be able to be sealed for at least two years, right?
In other words, Chu Jiang doesn't have to rush to sell this ghost to those powerful forces capable of long-term sealing. He can keep it for a while, wait for a good price, and then decide.
Of course, Chu Jiang had another idea in his mind...
The first time he dealt with a ghost alone, from figuring out the pattern to successfully sealing it.
It must be said, Chu Jiang was lucky because the ghost inside him naturally had the ability to restrain other ghosts.
As for other Ghost Masters, if they didn't have this ability, they could only fight the ghosts head-on.
They could only trap and seal the ghost if they rendered it unable to resist within a short period of time, either by quickly disabling it or by immobilizing it through other means.
Chu Jiang had it much easier; the process of direct confrontation was brief, and he quickly suppressed a C-class ghost with the help of the unique abilities of the Blood Hand Ghost.
Finally, the killing pattern of the Imitation Ghost may seem complex, but it can be summed up in one sentence: kill anyone who realizes it is a fake.
The rest is Chu Jiang's generalization of the ghost's behavioral patterns.
Not all ghosts are like the Stretching Ghost; some have a two-step process for killing people: first, forcefully stopping a car, and then selecting targets among the survivors.
The room became completely quiet, and as Chu Jiang looked at the pottery in his hand, he began to think deeply.
