Thanks so much ! When I fix that with qe-6.0, a new problem occurs:

 stopping ...
     Error in routine electrons (1):
     dexx is negative!   Check that exxdiv_treatment is appropriate for the system

So I am confused that what  exxdiv_treatment should I use ?
Currently my setting is below:

&control
 title='scf',
 calculation='scf',
pseudo_dir='/home-research/shuyang/pseudo',
prefix='eus',
 outdir='./tmp',
 tprnfor=.true.,
 etot_conv_thr=0.0001,
/
&system
 input_dft='hse',
 nbnd = 24,
 ecutwfc=60,
ecutfock=100,
 ibrav=0,
 nat=2,
 ntyp=2,     starting_magnetization(1)=1,
 exxdiv_treatment= gygi-baldereschi
/
&electrons
 conv_thr=1.0e-10,
 mixing_beta=0.7,
/
&ions
/
&cell
