Chapter 1989: A Great River Blocking the Way, A Cold Wave Approaches

Sun Wukong and the others all nodded and continued walking forward.

After walking for about another half an hour, they saw that the area ahead was filled with weeds half a person deep. It was autumn, and these weeds had already turned withered and yellow, swaying in the bleak autumn wind.

Sun Wukong had the sharpest ears. After listening for a moment, he said, "There is the sound of water ahead."

Upon hearing this, Marshal Tianpeng immediately showed a smile on his face and said, "So there is a river? The water in our luggage is all gone, and I am dying of thirst!"

Fahai looked up at the sky. The sky had already darkened, and the sun in the west had already hidden half of itself behind the mountain peak.

Thus, the group accelerated their pace and headed forward.

The surroundings looked like a vast plain, with endless withered yellow grass. However, the only thing to be thankful for was that there were no swamps among these weeds; otherwise, it would be troublesome if the horse's hooves got stuck in a swamp.

When they passed through this grassland, there was a downward slope ahead.

Sun Wukong raised his eyes and looked forward; an incredibly wide river was blocking the road ahead.

"Second Senior Brother, didn't you want to drink water? The water in this river is enough for you to drink."

General Wujing walked at the very back, looked at the river, frowned, and said.

"Old Sha, what do you mean? Don't tell me that after walking so far, you don't need to drink water?"

Marshal Tianpeng looked at the great river ahead, sighed in his heart, then turned his head to glare at General Wujing and said.

"Alright, alright, stop arguing. This river looks extremely wide. It's no problem for us to fly across, but Master is a mortal. It looks like there's no way to cross tonight."

Seeing that the two were not getting along, Sun Wukong felt a bit annoyed and said.

Tang Sanzang rode the White Dragon Horse and slowly arrived at the side of the great river. He saw that the river was surging with waves, white foam rolling, and he did not know how deep it was, while the width was so great that one could not see the other side.

Fahai looked around and could not see any signs of human habitation at all. He thought to himself, "Could it be that we have to spend the night here? Although it is not a difficult matter for a cultivator like me, I do not want to catch a cold or be bitten by mosquitoes."

Just at this moment, General Wujing followed the river and looked upstream. He saw something and said, "Eldest Senior Brother, look over there."

Sun Wukong looked over and quickly saw a stone tablet. He leaped over and saw that on the riverbank stood a stone tablet four or five meters high and three or four meters wide, with three large characters written on it: "Tongtian River."

"What does this mean? Can this river reach the heavens?"

Sun Wukong frowned and thought to himself.

At this time, Tang Sanzang and the others were still standing by the river, listening to the 'swishing' sound of the flowing water, their faces filled with worry, not knowing what to do.

Just at this moment, the wind picked up, and the sun in the west gradually sank below the mountain peak. In the sky, only a little hazy light remained.

Once this wind started blowing, large patches of dark clouds began to appear in the sky to the north, and the temperature began to drop sharply in an instant.

"Could it be that it's going to snow? It's only autumn; it's a bit too outrageous for it to snow at this time."

Marshal Tianpeng was a bit anxious and said.

"If it really snows, I'm afraid it won't be easy for us to get through tonight."

General Wujing also looked up at the sky and said.

Tang Sanzang had already dismounted. He rubbed his arms with both hands, clearly feeling very cold. ===== CHAPTER 1991 =====
