I believe the issue here is that the server has google.com cached.  It's
not allowed to do a recursive lookup for you, but since it can answer
your question without doing one, it does so.  In 9.4 and higher, you can
use allow-query-cache to disable this behavior.

As someone else mentioned, you really need to upgrade your server to at
least 9.3.5-P1, 9.4.2-P1 or 9.5.0-P1 ASAP; the one you're using has a very
serious security flaw.
