[he can't see who is touching him and between that and the inexplicable Pain, is immediately tense.
...half the reason for his tenseness should be obvious when he tries - and fails - to look in the direction of who touched him, with the blank cloudiness of normally-piercing golden eyes.
[and going to collapse it for now into the small jade cylinder, which he...kind of has to feel around for his obi to find it before he can tuck it in there.]
...hmmm. it gives him something else to focus on besides the fact that everything hurts a lot for some reason. (and his breathing still very definitely sounds pained.) and going to reach out to...try...to find Venti's shoulder. by sound only.

Re: VICTORY!
He carefully takes Xiao's hand, guiding it to one of his braids. ]

Re: VICTORY!
But he does numb Xiao's pain while he's still got a grip on him. ]
Re: VICTORY!
...though he is like trying to feel around for his polearm. which is presumably where it landed when he dropped it.]
Re: VICTORY!
Oh.
It doesn't take long before the handle of the spear finds its way into Xiao's searching palm. ]
Re: VICTORY!
...thank you.

Re: VICTORY!
Is what he might have said.
He takes his hand back and settles it in his lap, because he's just gonna . . . not go anywhere for a while.
And the shivering, chilling cold sets in again, of course. ]
Re: VICTORY!
...are you cold again?
Re: VICTORY!
He shrugs, but Xiao is blind, sooo . . . ]

Re: VICTORY!
Venti can't actually tell what he's trying to find, so he simply takes his hand again, drawing a '?' on his palm. ]
