Eight surnames of Zhurong

The Eight surnames that came after the Zhurong tribe, according to the Guoyu, a historical Chinese text, are Ji, Dong, Peng, Tu, Wei, Cao, Zhen, and Mi.

[1] It is written in the Guoyu that there were eight surnames after Zhu Rong: Cao, Peng, Balu, Si, Yun, Zhen, Ji, and Mi.

[3] According to the Records of the Grand Historian, the ancestors of Chu came from the emperor Zhuanxu, who was the son of Chang Yi and the grandson of Huang Di.

Later, when Chongli was executed for his crimes, his brother Wu Hui became his successor as fire officer and was still called Zhurong.

Therefore, the eight surnames of Zhurong were formed: 己, 斯, 彭, 秃, 먹용, 曹, 斟, 芈.
