Jessica gritted her teeth and held the tree tight even if her arms were aching.

Although she was on the edge of despair, she still carried on.

Jessica exhaled and looked at the Tibetan Mastiff, who was still barking under the tree. The Tibetan Mastiff tried to jump and catch her.

Jessica's face turned pale. Looking at the Tibetan Mastiff under the moonlight, Jessica was thinking. "It is night, so I guess no one will pass by. I have to manage to escape here on my own; otherwise, I will be over soon."

Jessica raised her head, looking toward a branch. She reached for it and put her feet down. When she almost held the branch, she stepped on the moss and slipped.

Jessica screamed. She hung in midair, swinging back and forth.

The Tibetan Mastiff looked at Jessica and screamed excitedly. He became more excited and jumped up and down. The Tibetan Mastiff managed to drag Jessica down.

Jessica glanced at the Tibetan Mastiff, who was almost mad, which made her anxious and held the trunk tight. She was swinging up and down as the trunk swayed. Jessica was afraid that she would fall, so she didn't move at all.

Jessica was in a state of mental tension, and her entire body was cold. She felt her every cell, and every nerve almost collapsed, and she must be dead.

"I almost fall. I can't hold on. If I die, the Tibetan Mastiff must eat me up, only my bones left. It must be miserable for me," thought Jessica.

Jessica then gritted her teeth, gathered her strength, lifted his legs, and kicked hard.

Almost three minutes later, Jessica finally climbed the branch.

She breathed heavily, sitting on the branch and holding the trunk tight.

Jessica lowered her head, looking at the Tibetan Mastiff and thinking, "How long will it last?"

As time passed, Jessica leaned against the tree trunk, but no one saw her because it was so small that people in the hall couldn't see.

Jessica tried to tip her toes, stretched her neck and shouted, "Help—"

Jessica shouted again and again, but no one answered. She was far away from the hall.

The Tibetan Mastiff also shouted more loudly than Jessica

Her throat was a bit hot and stopped. "You are as bad as James Moore. Are you his lost brother?" Jessica said unhappily

To Jessica's surprise, the Tibetan Mastiff suddenly sat down slowly as if it knew something.

Jessica didn't get angry anymore when she found the Tibetan Mastiff sat down. She couldn't help but laugh, "Uh-huh. Do you think it is interesting? You are so patient, but it had been a long time. It is enough. We are all people. You don't have to make me terrible. Let me go. Oh, you aren't a human being…"

"I have a suggestion. If you don't kill me and eat me up, I must let you enjoy a wonderful meal. Think about it," Jessica then added.

The Tibetan Mastiff barked twice and raised her eyes carelessly as if her word meant nothing to it.

Jessica tried her best to persuade the Tibetan Mastiff, and her forehead sweating heavily, but it was useless. "It is a tough Tibetan Mastiff. He never gives up whatever I do," thought Jessica.

Jessica raised her head, looking at the sky, but there was no one here.

Jessica was tired. She leaned against the trunk and said to the Tibetan Mastiff, "Now that you don't want to leave, I must be patient to wait until you leave. I don't believe you will squat under the tree all the time."

Jessica had made up her mind to fight against the Tibetan Mastiff. However, she suddenly felt a cool wind coming from her neck. She didn't care about it at first, just withdrew her head.

Jessica would have believed that it usually happened in the forest when water fell from the leaves. However, a few seconds later, it happened again. Jessica felt not only cold but also itchy.

Jessica's back had gone rigid, and she suddenly realized that there was something wrong.

Thus, Jessica turned around slowly.

There was a cobra. Jessica and a cobra were looking at each other.

Jessica was so terrified that she seemed to feel her heart would jump out.

It was a cobra with green patterns. Its tail coiled around the upper branches of the tree. It was getting close to Jessica.

Its eyes looked cold, and its tongue was red.

It was getting close to Jessica.

At that one moment, when Jessica was stunned, the snake opened its mouth and moved toward Jessica.

Jessica was utterly stunned.

When the snake was going to attack Jessica, she immediately grabbed its cold and smooth body and threw it out.

In an instant, when Jessica threw the snake out, she lost balance and fell to the ground.

Boom—

Jessica fell to the ground heavily, and her face turned pale and wrinkled tight.

The Tibetan Mastiff howled and rushed over immediately before Jessica realized.

It was an adult Tibetan Mastiff. He was so strong that Jessica couldn't resist when she was under its body.

But it seemed that the Tibetan Mastiff didn't want to kill Jessica directly. Just like a cat, the Tibetan Mastiff kept playing with Jessica and touched her with its paws as if she were a mouse.

Although it was just like a game, some specks of blood showed on Jessica's body.

The Tibetan Mastiff was a violent beast.

Jessica's mind went black. She was terrified and thought she must be dead.

Suddenly, she found a brick-sized pebble and immediately punched the Tibetan Mastiff's head.

However, the Tibetan Mastiff didn't feel dizzy and became angrier.

The Tibetan Mastiff howled, lifted his paws, and beat Jessica.

It made Jessica rolled forward, and her head slammed on the trunk. She became dizzy.

Jessica had no time to think. As soon as she saw the Tibetan Mastiff ran over, she immediately jumped, dodged, and rode it. And then, she threw the pebble on its head.

The Tibetan Mastiff roared and ran here and there. He wanted to throw Jessica off its body, but Jessica held his skin and fur tight.

Jessica tried her best to beat the Tibetan Mastiff again and again. She was almost exhausted, but the Tibetan Mastiff wasn't down.

The Tibetan Mastiff kept roaring and rampaging through the forest.

Suddenly, Jessica hit the trunk hard, which made her tremble, and finally, she loosened her hands and dropped directly from the Tibetan Mastiffs body. Jessica rolled for a while and then stopped. The pain in her whole body made her huddled together as if her internal organs were almost broken.

But the Tibetan Mastiff was agitated. His eyes looked red and fierce. He roared with his mouth open wide and rushed to Jessica.

Hearing the scraping made by the claws, Jessica was in despair.

When Jessica looked at the Tibetan Mastiff rushing toward, her mind went blank. Although she wanted to escape, there was no time to go away.

When the Tibetan Mastiff jumped, ready to pounce and tear Jessica.

Bang—

The shot of the gun sounded.
