燧统领 Flint Chief
神火造神机，炎池深处栖。
对手飒沓起，相持显威仪。
Divine fire crafts a wondrous device,
In the depths of the flame pool, it hides from eyes.
Foes arise with swift, fierce might,
In the clash, its grandeur shines bright.
要说火焰山中，谁最惯着红孩儿，那非土地莫属。
但红孩儿，却并不总是领情，正如他父亲母亲对那土地一般，不过此乃家事，土地一个外人做得再多，旁人也说不上什么好话。
那日，红孩儿嚷着要在山中仿照黄风岭的石先锋，给自己也添一个燧先锋。
牛魔王与铁扇公主无可无不可，倒是那土地一下就应承了。
他怕只有石先锋还不够红孩儿取乐，又凭意增添了许多石精，其中有一个身形巨大，生着双臂，还有可撑起石身的腿足。
这巨型石精比寻常都厉害，大多时间潜息在火河之中，若强敌闯入，或是主人唤他，才会从火河里钻出。
红孩儿并不喜欢土地擅自做主制造的这批精怪，大部分时间里，也只与燧先锋有些交往。
因红孩儿随罗刹女住在翠云殿里，土地就将这些石精排布在了丹灶谷中。
后来红孩儿围困火焰山，这些火河里的石精，倒是帮了不少忙，难免让人生出些别的想法来。
When it comes to who spoiled Red Boy the most in Flaming Mountains, it has to be the Keeper. However, Red Boy didn't always appreciate it, much like his parents, the Bull King and Lady Rakshasi, who took the Keeper's efforts for granted. After all, he was not one of the family, and regardless of how much effort he put in, to others, he was still an outsider.
One day, Red Boy demanded to have a Flint Vanguard, modeled after the Stone Vanguard of Yellow Wind Ridge. The Bull King and Lady Rakshasi did not favor the plan, but the Keeper immediately agreed. Fearing that just a Stone Vanguard wouldn't be enough to entertain Red Boy, he went ahead and created more rock guais. Among them was a giant rock guai with arms and legs strong enough to support its massive body.
This giant rock guai was more formidable than the others, usually lying dormant in the river of fire. It would only emerge when summoned by its master or when a powerful enemy intruded. Red Boy didn't like these rock guais that the Keeper had created without his permission and mostly visited only the Flint Vanguard.
Since Red Boy lived with Lady Rakshasi in the Emerald Hall, the Keeper stationed these rock guais in Furnace Valley. Later, when Red Boy besieged Flaming Mountains, these rock guais from the river of fire proved to be quite helpful, inevitably leading to some speculation over the Keeper himself.
