[ Xiao Xingchen isn't eager to go back to sleep, so instead he tries to meditate. It's always been a calming practice for him, something he'd often do whenever he struggled to fall asleep. It's not a proper substitute for sleep, but it works for a night or two in a row.
Now though, he finds it a lot more difficult than it's ever been before to relax enough to go into that meditative state. It's not exactly surprising, considering that the state of mind he's in. He keeps trying however, and eventually, he manages to sink into that trance-like state. It's nice, and comforting, like sinking into a hot bath or a warm embrace. It makes him think of his Shifu's mountain.

He remains like that for several hours. ]
