After I continued the job, I found my log file is the following:

obviously, the continued job didn't wirte log based on previous time.


What's present in the .log file is rather irrelevant. What's important is the contents of the .cpt file that was used as input for -cpi. Use gmxcheck to find out what time from which the simulation should have continued. It seems odd indeed that you would have gone back 50 ns, especially since the .cpt file should be written every 15 minutes.

I am just wondering is it OK for this continued job when I am trying to merged
it with previous after it is finished?


Given the information at hand, there's nothing immediately "wrong" about what you're seeing. Inconvenient, perhaps, to have lost time, but the contents of the .cpt file used will confirm what should have happened.

Also I found that the trjconv command doesn't work when I try to extract
trajectory for analyis:



trjconv -f md2.trr -s md.tpr -pbc mol -o md2.xtc
