The traceroute log shows there is loop between gige-gbge0.tserv3.fmt2.ipv6.he.net (2001:470:0:45::2) and 2001:470:1f05:46b:: (2001:470:1f05:46b::) ,
why does this happen ?

It does look like there's a routing loop

Who/what is 2001:470:83f2::710:1?

Looks like an HE address, so I'd email ipv6@he.net and let them know.

And, no need to block out IP addresses, makes troubleshooting much harder

Man thats some crazy latency to the first hop as well.

That high of an address off a tserv would be a routed /48.  If it's being kicked back to the tserv, that means the person who it's routed to doesn't have a route for it themselves and is left with going to default (back to the tserv).

Yes，I'm in China, and connect from home to the he.net Tunnel Server in US, so the latency can't be low...

Sigh~  :(

There are closer tunnel endpoints than the U.S. for you:  Hong Kong and Singapore.

Most US endpoints are better than HK or SG for China user. Chinese internet sux!

[snarked]

That may be true once network topography is determined, but there's no way any of us can tell that for him (except if we have a direct peering with his network).

Yes, you are right, I checked the ping result of those endpoints, the US endpoint is better, so i selected it.
I'm using a 10M fiber FTTH connection direct to my home, it's fast enough to open the websites in China, but the connection to US is poor.
