There are more than a hundred of these messages per second. What is it?

Queries for the root domain.

Maybe you have another caching resolver like unbound in front of it.

Thank you very much for your answer!

I used this instruction to set up: https://openwrt.org/docs/guide-user/services/dns/dnscrypt_dnsmasq_dnscrypt-proxy2
And then I decided to dive a little deeper, and followed this instruction: https://github.com/DNSCrypt/dnscrypt-proxy/wiki/Configuration

If I understand correctly, this is where I forbid the use of dnsmasq resolver (plus I add firewall rules):

uci set dhcp.@dnsmasq[0].noresolv="1"
uci set dhcp.@dnsmasq[0].cachesize='0'

And it turns out that there is something else that acts as a resolver?
