Exploring the source of Shen Shi

After the establishment of the Xia Dynasty, Xia people annexed the surrounding tribes, and at the same time, they also annexed the surname Shen Guo in the west of Linyi County, Shanxi Province, and established the surname Shen Guo. By the end of the Shang Dynasty, the pro-business clan got the name of Shen Renguo, and the Shen Rennan clan escaped the Yellow River and entered the northern part of Xincheng County, Henan Province, and then went south to Gushi, Henan Province, Qiu's hometown. At the beginning of the Zhou Dynasty, Jiang destroyed Gu's surname Shen in Gushi, Henan Province, and fled to the south of Chu, which is now the city of Chu at the foot of Dahongshan in Zhongxiang Cave, Hubei Province.

Then it arrived in Dingxi County, Gansu Province, crossed Minshan Mountain in Gansu Province and went south along Minjiang River to Hanyuan in central Sichuan, where it mixed with Li nationality to form Shen State, which fell into Qin State during the Warring States Period, and then evolved into Shen Li nationality, gradually being assimilated by Qiang people.
