This is not that Xian which is city (西安), but just "xia" (敮 ) - this is something weird I can't understand. I don't think this message is in Chinese at all, actually. But have to say i'm not Chinese.
Wouldn't be surprised, Chinese might be a little niche even for us...
Nethertheless in the interest of covering all bases...

Ok, so i was late, but i'm back and this is the first part of today's string :

For now, we've got this :

Code:
________    ________    _____001    01101100
________    ________    _____011    01101011
________    ________    _____101    01100010
________    ________    _____001    00101110
________    ________    _____000    01100101

00100000    01110011    01110100    01101111
01101110    01100101    01110011    00101110
00100000    01001000    01100101    00100000
01101011    01100101    01100101    01110000
01110011    00100000    01110111    01100001

01110100    01100011    01101000    01101001
01101110    01100111    00100000    01110100
01101000    01100101    00100000    01110011
01110100    01101111    01101110    01100101
01110011    00101110


Which gives us :

Code:
_    _    _    l
_    _    _    k
_    _    _    b
_    _    _    .
_    _    _    e


     s    t    o
n    e    s    .
     H    e  
k    e    e    p
s         w    a


t    c    h    i
n    g         t
h    e         s 
t    o    n    e
s    .

So : ___l___k___b___.___e stones. He keeps watching the stones.

/// Entering the Guesswork Zone ///

We now know that both small and capital letters can be used, but i'll stick to small letters for now, as it's unlikely we'll get any other periods.

The cut digits can thus be :
_____001 = a / i / q / y
_____011 = c / k / s
_____101 = e / m / u
_____001 = a / i / q / y
_____000 = h / p / x / [space]

Giving us : __[a/i/q/y]l__[c/k/s]k__[e/m/u]b__[a/i/q/y].__[h/p/x/ ]e stones. He keeps watching the stones.
It's unlikely we'll have either two consecutive "K"s or a lone "e", so i'll remove these, same for the Q before an L and the Q at the end of a word :
__[a/i/y]l__[c/s]k__[e/m/u]b__[a/i/y].__[h/p/x]e stones. He keeps watching the stones.

I'll ponder a bit and edit with theories...

EDIT : Well, seems like I was really too late, (that censor filter is just so good i'll let it do its thing)...

So the result seems to very likely be :
The Coalsack nebula. The stones. He keeps watching the stones.
