Explanation

When converting direct speech into reported speech with a past reporting verb, the modal 'will' changes to 'would'. Also, pronouns must be adjusted to reflect the correct perspective. The original sentence 'They will hurt you' becomes 'He told me that they would hurt me' in reported speech. Therefore, option D is the correct choice.
