陈方远决定1去房子里面看看。他往前走了不长时间,又看到了几个女人和孩子,他们好像在草地2睡觉3。前面有三个男人,他们一个跟着一个往前走,看起来都没有力气4。好像现在是晚上,他们很想睡觉。

陈方远马上跑过去5,他一边跑一边大声6叫:“你们好!你们好…”。听到有人在大声叫,那三个男人马上不走了。他们的头一会儿向东,一会儿向西,好像在找陈方远。

陈方远生气7地想:“他们看不见8我吗?这些人都是盲人9吗?”陈方远又叫他们,那三个人才知道他在哪里。然后,陈方远跑到了那三个盲人前面。看到那三个人的时候,陈方远才知道他们真的都是盲人。他马上开心地对自己说:“这里可能真的是盲人国!”

那三个人好像有点怕陈方远,他们站在一起,没用10眼睛11看他,只用耳朵12听。陈方远觉得他们的眼睛很奇怪13,有点难看14。他们的眼睛那么小,好像在睡觉。还有,他们的眼睛都是白色的。

“不是我们的人!”一个盲人对另外15两个盲人说。

这个时候,陈方远自信16地走过去。他觉得自己马上就会有新的生活17了,一边走,一边开心地想:“在盲人国里,有眼睛的人就是国王18。”
