Teleport to the Statue of The Seven in Masters of the Night-Wind and turn left to find Mamul and his small camp. Talk to him to start this hidden puzzle challenge.
Round I
You have to remember the color of the rocks above the boxes and paint the ones on the floor to match them. The first one is pretty simple. Interact with the blue-hued Monetoo and hold the skill while aiming at the rock in the middle to paint it blue. Next, talk to Mamull and get the first Common Chest.
Round II
For the second round, you must paint the second rock from the left yellow and the fourth rock red. Talk to Mamull again to get the second Common Chest in Genshin Impact.

From round III, Mamull will begin his scam. You can try his challenge as many times as you want but you will never win even if you have colored the rocks correctly because of the Iktomisaur nearby. The Saurian will keep changing the color of the rock from yellow to orange.
That said, you can stop trying after one attempt and expose Mamull's scam.
