Dear Guotao,

Did you try what the error message from wannier90 suggested, and increase 
search_shells? Depending on the dimensions of your until cell you might need to 
make it fairly large. Note that in the most recent release the default value is 
36, not 12 (as in version 2)

If that doesn’t fix the issue you should post your input file.
