 * Here is my solution: (1) open “options”->”permulink”; (2) set the option back,
   but don’t save it, just leave the brwoser open; (3) as the .htaccess has been
   created inside the server, and http service is crashed already, but you can still
   use file management functionality provided by the space host to delete that file(
   4) turn back to the browser and save it, done.
 * ps. if your space host doesn’t support file management, you can upload a phpmyadmin
   by your own and operate on it.
 * thank yanzhg for your kind reminder.

 * but i cannot switch it back to default, because wp will create .htaccess when
   i open the permalink page, at that time, the server already crashed and stopped
   responding to my request.

 * thank you, but the switching back thing does cause crash because the host provider
   does not permit .htaccess.
 * i mean, is there any way to switch the permalink option back through modifying
   the database content?
