Thank you very much for the solution. It displayed exactly as the image.

I don't find a way to using a rest stencil in the place with ledger line 
printed. The following code just use the default rest stencil, but 
without a ledger line printed.

 \relative c' {
   \key g \major
   dis16[
     << fis
        \new Voice \with \voiceTwo b,\rest
      >>
     b16 ais]
 }

I also tried http://lsr.di.unimi.it/LSR/Snippet?id=548. I can put a 
triangle rest in the place, but without a ledger line printed.

Best,
