幽默小故事：瞎子睁开了眼

　　瞎子睁开了眼

　　胡老蔫跟着一个算命先生，学会了一些窍门，经过一段时间的苦练，终于练得定力惊人。他要是装起瞎子来，即使你拿针在他的眼皮上扎，他也不会睁开眼。

　　这个绝活练成之后，胡老蔫就拿着把破二胡，坐在车站广场临街的地方，面前放个破缸子，两眼一闭，“吱吱呀呀”地拉个不停。有来听他拉二胡的，一见他那副可怜相，也都不白听，往往会往那个破缸子里扔点零钱。给个十块八块，胡老蔫不嫌多;给一毛两毛，胡老蔫也不嫌少。也有人怀疑胡老蔫是在装瞎，听完他拉的二胡一分钱不给，胡老蔫心里清楚，可也不计较。

　　腊月二十四小年这一天，车站的人一下子增加了几倍。胡老蔫想借这个机会，多弄点钱，好正儿八经地过个年。他拿出了自己的看家本领，拉上了他最拿手的曲子《二泉映月》。胡老蔫正拉得起劲，不知什么时候过来一个骑着摩托车的小伙子。小伙子闲着没事儿，开始逗胡老蔫。他从兜里掏出个“摔炮”，突然摔在胡老蔫的身边。“叭”的一声“摔炮”响了，正在听曲的几个人猛然间吓了一大跳，有的还吓得叫出了声。可是，胡老蔫的眼皮连抬也没抬一下。

　　这时，看热闹的人呼啦啦围上来一大帮。

　　“哎，瞎子!别在这儿装了，给你两个钱儿回家过小年去吧!”小伙子随手掏出几枚硬币，扔进了破缸子。但他仍然不相信胡老蔫真的是瞎子，灵机一动，忽然喊道：“哎，瞎子!我把一张100块的扔进缸子里了，你给我拿回来。”胡老蔫好像根本就没听到小伙子的话似的，仍旧闭着双眼，拉着他的二胡。

　　“瞎子，定力不错呀，见钱眼也不开呀?我要是个美女就好了，保管你就睁开眼睛了。”

　　“哈哈哈……”看热闹的人哄堂大笑，小伙子这才觉得赚足了面子，一边“哈哈”大笑着，一边加大油门，摩托车冲了出去。

　　人说乐极生悲，这话一点不假。小伙子的摩托车刚开出去，只听“咣”的一声，就与一辆出租车撞在一起了。看热闹的人吃惊地回转头，有的发出了惊呼声：“哎呀，撞车了!”

　　这时，谁也没有注意到，胡老蔫的眼皮轻轻地动了一下，二胡的曲子也停了下来。他侧着耳朵，神情专注地听着街上的动静——有人喊：“哎呀，流血了!”还有人喊：“撞人的出租车跑了，快追呀……”

　　不一会儿，街上说话的人声音小了下来，大声嚷嚷变成了小声的嘁嘁喳喳。这个说：“再不送医院去，这么流血也流完了。”那个说：“这年头，都怕惹事儿，谁敢送呀，你没看来来往往的出租车都不停吗……”胡老蔫听到这儿，再也坐不住了。他扔下二胡，从后面拨开围观的人群就蹿了过去。

　　那些人一见冲进来的人是胡老蔫，立刻来了精神，一齐围住他嚷道：“哎，这不是拉二胡的瞎子吗?原来他真的是在装瞎呀!这人，真差劲!”胡老蔫不禁有点急了，把挡在他前面的人往一边一拨拉，说道：“我是差劲，苦练了那么长时间，定力也比不上你们!”

　　说完，他吃力地抱起躺在地上的小伙子，向医院方向奔去。
