D) They make his lute-playing seem better.

Explanation:

The question is from a Chinese folktale, The Shepherd's Lute by Natalie Stewart. The story is about a shepherd named Jiang, a pleasant, good natured fellow who loved playing the lute. The villagers and woodland creatures started adoring his melodies and he soon developed good relations with both."Villagers and woodland creatures from all over came to hear him perform."

The sentence, "“Farmer, beware!” called Jiang. “If I strum my lute, the creatures will attack!” conveys the message that the creatures appreciated Jiang's lute paying and his generosity in saving the flaxen rabbit. Therefore, they join him in teaching the farmer, Chao, a lesson.
